We don’t get that lag but we do frequently get it when the camera doesn’t work for somebody.

I really can’t understand the separation between teams, channels and chats. We almost never use anything other than group chats.

As a software developer I’m pretty confident that X could hand over every piece of documentation they have and we’d all be non the wiser as to how it works.

What’s the point in mining the Moon if we’re just gonna leave what’s been mined there? Of course it would be removed.

We might use the mined materials to build stuff on the moon. Even if we were mining to bring resources back there’ll be a lot of stuff dug up that we don’t want so we’d obviously want to leave that there. We’d need to process the ore on the moon to extract the small amount of material that we’re after.

Where did you get that 10% is what would be required to affect the tides? Why don’t we just say it’s 90% to back your point up even more?

90% would be an obviously ridiculous number to use so would undermine their argument. Assuming their numbers are correct then it would take 10,000,000 years to remove 1% of the moon. And we wouldn’t remove all of the material that we mine so we’d take even longer than that to actually remove 1%.

Having said that, I really don’t agree with the sentiment of letting people do what they want on the moon because it won’t affect us. We should be more considerate of every environment just as a matter of principle.

Its like if Samsung would remotely lock your TV making you unable to turn it on again because they stopped “supporting” it.

Didn’t Sonos do that with old speakers? I don’t think that it went down well.

If you make a claim like that then you obviously got it from somewhere. That means that it should be easier for you to quote that source.

From the other side it could be very difficult to disprove it because it might not explicitly be stated that it isn’t allowed. It might just not provide the functionality to resell the games. Looking for a source to prove that something doesn’t exist is very hard.

Plenty of jobs at less than £90k/year say that you’re not allowed a second job.

Visio is similar in that the lowest plan doesn’t let you use many of the built in shapes.

You can add them yourself as images but loads of useful shapes for a network diagram, for example, are missing making it very inconvenient to use (I’m now using draw.io).

I can understand limiting certain functionality (like only having a web UI) but not making basic tasks unnecessarily difficult.

We kind of have a 3 party system in the UK with the third party being a mix of parties. There’s no realistic chance of anyone except the Conservative and Labour parties to win the majority in parliament. Sometimes the two main parties need the support of one of the other parties to get a majority.

I think that Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland might be the same but the two main parties are different for them.

I don’t know why Musk would support Reform UK as that wouldn’t really increase the chances of them forming a government in the time of his short attention span. The best that he can hope for is for them to become the third largest party in the next election but that would stuff the Conservatives chances of winning that election because most of Reform UK votes would come from them.

That’s not really what it’s saying.

It’s saying if they sell less power then the cost per unit of power goes up. This is how all businesses work due to economies of scale. If you sell a lot of stuff then you can sell the stuff for less money and still make more money.

If you personally use less power then that won’t increase your price per unit enough to offset the savings you made by using less power.

I think that whether it needs plugins or not to do the job isn’t really relevant.

You can develop software in a large number of languages including writing the code (with intelligent code completion), building it, committing it to source control and running and debugging it.

If it didn’t use plugins to do that then it’d huge and take ages to start up.

The two inflation calculators that I found said that a dollar in 2014 should be worth $1.33 in 2025. That’s significantly lower than the lowest price increase in this infographic.

It doesn’t really lend itself to a summary outside of the first paragraph.

They bought a specific thing for the reasons stated in the first paragraph and if you need something to do that then read on otherwise don’t bother.

It’s right on the top bar in the latest UI. At the same level as choosing movies or tv shows. It’s very easy to get to in fairness.

There’s a prime only browsing section but but you don’t seem to be able to limit the search to only return prime included stuff.

I ditched Disney+ when they added 50% onto the price. The exit questionnaire was annoying as it had one answer that lumped in “can’t afford it” with “too expensive” which implies it’s a “me” problem when it was definitely a “them” problem.

I would have ditched Amazon Prime when they added adverts with an optional 50% price hike to remove them but my wife didn’t want to lose the prime delivery.

The intention is that we subscribe to Disney+ for a few months a year and catch up on what we missed.

Microsoft SQL Server is most commonly set up as case insensitive in my (limited) experience (it does support case sensitivity too).

Blocking X would be a good start.

It is a little bit similar in that the Taliban also said that they were going to be more moderate. That didn’t last very long though.

Also said that he was against slavery but didn’t free his slaves even though he could have done legally in his state.

I don’t see Taken as a revenge movie. He was rescuing his daughter from human trafficking.

I can’t think of many people in the film who were killed in revenge (I can only think of the auction manager and the guy in the chair).

Although a quick google suggests that many people do think of it as a revenge movie.
