i reallly wish that google had the same incentive to improve battery life and memory usage that apple has with safari

seems to be the way both apple and MS are going.

I'm laughing my ass off thinking about all the steps required to get these working if you bought them new. downloading an app and pairing your shoes to wifi or some shit. ha

if the internet goes down can you still put on your shoes?! lmao!

would it be better to have two trump terms, back to back, or to make a biden sandwich and have a break between the terms?

i worry that if trump comes back from the dead he might do crazier shit than if he was just re-elected and kept eating mcdonalds at the white house.

no way to know for sure, unless whoever built the universe made two copies just to test this out

Cloudflare is by far the cheapest registrar & host I've used. I'm on their free plan, which can handle almost any load (thousands of requests a week for me personally). The domains are sold at cost, so around $10 for my dot-coms. So $10/yr covers it.

  1. putting paywalled content onto the internet, where you let bots look at it but try to prevent humans from being able to see it, is plain evil.
  2. NYT lied to get us into Iraq, and countless other times, they are pure evil
  3. NYT did not contribute to the building of the internet in any way. but they see it as their god given right to take the hard work of the nerds they hate and use to make millions of dollars for themselves, while giving nothing back
  4. nobody here seems to understand the difference between a USER AGENT and a BOT. If i ask my web browser to fetch me a web page, that browser is my user agent. of course it does not respect the robots policy. same thing if i ask an LLM to fetch a page for me. that LLM is my user agent, not a bot in this case. NYT is mad because they let all bot-like user agents in, they want to be indexed after all. of course here again we see where NYT wants the benefit of internet resources like being in the search index, but they want to give nothing back and make the actual human people suffer by degrading their experience on the web

ah, thanks for explaining that. if there is an option to join or not join, then the unions would have some incentive to do a good job. but in the usa, that isn't an option, so every union eventually turns corrupt.

I'm sure that was done intentionally, to render unions (worse than) useless.
