Where the hell did you get HTML from? /s is a tag literally made to denote that a given text is sarcastic. It’s one of the few good things to come out of Twitter?
…that is much older than Twitter:
This symbol is an abbreviated version of the earlier /sarcasm, itself a simplification of <\sarcasm>, the form of a humorous XML closing tag marking the end of a “sarcasm” block.
It’s so much more obvious to make a statement sound insane or to use /s.
Also, would most of the world even interpret that emoji as “eye rolling?”
You only interpret ‘\s’ as sarcasm because of html and sarcasm beginning with the letter ‘s’. If you don’t think pictorial eye-rolling ‘looks’ like sarcasm, just consider it almost like hieroglyphs.
There is no monopoly in video streaming. Not even close.
Ah, you’re one of those people. Okay.
Public services aren’t efficient, but they can surely change themselves more efficiently than they can force a multi billion dollar company to change its ways.
[citation needed]
I’m surprised you’re not more worried about the government outsourcing its functions to a company you seem very suspicious of.
You’re the one talking about all the alternate video services you use. I just dont want a monopoly.
If the government decided to have vital public meetings only in a private venue you have to be a member of or something, the proper fix is not to force the club to accept everyone, it’s to have the government stop having vital meetings in private places.
wut. Not having meetings in private places literally is making sure the ‘place’ accepts everyone. Do you even read what you’re saying?
I also don’t see a problem because everything of value these video streaming services offer is replaceable by one of the many other streaming services. The fact that YouTube is the biggest or most recognized does not change anything for me. The fact that there is some content that is only on YouTube doesn’t, either.
Well, you totally missed the point then.
The efficient solution to that problem is governments using a different platform that’s actually neutral.
First time I’ve heard public services called efficient, but ok.
I’m not being disingenuous. I watch videos on a bunch of platforms. It’s easy.
We’re not talking about you here. You’re purposely ignoring the problem, and therefore being disingenuous.
There are countless other video streaming services.
There are government websites - including my state’s dmv - that exclusively use youtube. You’re being disingenuous when you’re saying you can just use another streaming service (and I don’t believe you don’t know it).
Is it more anti competitive than McDonald’s only selling McDonald’s burgers
Yeah, it’s more like the next time you go to Wendy’s, McDonald’s will follow you and try to lock the doors before you go in.
Whereas Android phones tend to have sharper corners, for whatever reason.
Because Apple has design patents on those corners. Samsung lost a lawsuit about it and almost had to pay out a billion dollars.
I see, that explains the confusion.
Costco recently came to my country and it feels so incredibly weird to wait for someone to first unpack your stuff and for someone else to scan it, and then someone else packs it again.
I’m in the states, but I still kind of feel weird having them do this. That said, they’re much faster at it than me and lines are always huge, so they probably prefer it this way.
Bring your own bags => cashiers toss stuff into cart and break things, because you have to bag your own stuff.
Cashiers bag stuff => less things break, because stuff is bagged then put in the cart.
Ah, that makes sense. I still miss the text reflow that browser had, but I’ve long given up on finding a replacement for it.
Do you mean you’re given a choice in Firefox or in other apps? I meant being presented with a private/regular mode choice when opening from other apps, like sharing a link or using “open in browser”.
Oh I see, I’m talking about where everything is in firefox, though if you mean just on the regular context menu of any link I don’t see that for chrome either. In fact it looks like the only way to do it in either browser is what you said: choose in the settings to either have plain tabs or private by default. Now I’m curious how you managed to do it in other browsers.
Different commenter, but I’m on android 13 and private browsing works just fine for me. Private links are kept in a separate ‘group’ from normal tabs, and you’re given the option to choose if you long press on a link.
This is exactly my experience as well. Same inciting incident.
And I’m over here meticulously organizing my music library into folders by band, album, year, etc…o the humanity.
beets, it’s a life changer
Do you have an error message? Is dkms failing during the install, or is it just not rebuilding the modules when a new kernel is built?
I agree. Are you installing it from the GitHub repo? It looks like the install script should automatically use dkms. The next issue is making sure that it’s actually being triggered when you install a new kernel, which should already be happening. If not, you can use the archwiki page as a reference for how to rebuild the modules you need.
After slavery, they were simply brutalized, raped, murdered, butchered without any protection whatsoever.
What exactly do you think masters did to “disobedient” slaves?
tee-hee it’s scared and regressive
If anything, I would guess probably reddit since it kind of evolved from the early forums where it came from. Twitter has (had?) a much larger userbase though, so that’s not a bad guess either. 🤷♂️
