Ok, sounds like the standard claim for everything to me to be honest.
Can someone explain in short what problem people had about Omegle?
Was it that you can say things (and show things) there to a random person without any good possibility to trace it back to you because it's anonymous and more "temporary" then something like Lemmy for example?
Or was it just a witch hunt without any real reasonable structure?
And maybe more creators start using PeerTube as well...
Because usability. If you have the files down down1 down2 downxyz and download and the user only knows that it was "something with down" it's best to show the user everything matching "down*" and let the user decide what's the correct one.
Also I'm not sure but wouldn't your expression show everything if only one character would be entered?
And again I don't see this solving anything if the entered string actually contains other characters then what's in the file (D != d)
Yes one could argue that some form of advanced algorithm or even AI could be used to identify such use case like download and Download but this is programming Humor, not linguisic Humor.
down matches down* because * also includes empty string. Also download matches down*
D matches D* but d is not matching D* because D is a different character than d.
Sorry, down is a substring of download I don't get your point either?
I don't get it... "D" is a complete different character than "d" is.
It's like wondering why "file1" is not opened when I typed in "file2".
Well I didn't found anything regarding this on GitHub. And to be honest I only find some german language articles about this speaking of an announcement that signal don't likes the idea enabling Chats with WhatsApp... so I assume this comes from Twitter.
Like I said turn it of by default so that only people who activity made the decision can be chat with WhatsApp. Also showing a hint in the chat that this account is not on a signal server should also not be that hard to implement.
No and that's why signal can decide on their own if they want to enable chat with other messager or not. Meta has no choice anymore.
Matrix shows me that you can have both secure and decentralized communication.
Plus this refusal to allowing Chats to Whatsapp and Facebook Messenger now that EU forced meta to open this up...
I know the devs are not happy about meta tracking everything on their end but why can't this be a users choice to enable communication with no-signal servers as well?
I assume she was excited about all the cool stuff you could make with it and found out it was actually just a cake... Would be disappointed too.
What really? Where do you live? Here in Germany you can get in legal trouble when you see someone in an urgent need for help and you not help.
There is actual law about this. Section 323c of the German Criminal Code https://www.gesetze-im-internet.de/englisch_stgb/englisch_stgb.html#p3123
