I'll take him at his word. I don't doubt he'd follow through with what he's saying.

But also the headline sucks. He has a heavy sarcasm to his voice like he's mocking liberal's and the media's portrayal of him and "rabid cheers" isn't how I would describe the sound of the reaction in the video.

Thanks for that.

Its a weird that the couldn't just choose to back port the fixes that have security implications even if it wouldn't deserve a cve.

Obviously. I've just got two emotions about the content I want to show.

I want a upvote for sharing, down vote the concept button. I hate it.

As much as I hate it, think it's a terrible part for a free, open, and secure web; it's probably a solid business move based on the hype.

Also the part where Twitter has invested in s tier lawyers and brought and iron clad contract that heavily favored them. Which being an entitled idiot he agreed to. So when he tried to back out he literally couldn't afford the penalties because he didn't have enough cash and getting it would loose him control of his companies.

Definitely not him being dumb and entitled. Surely it was a petty $50k grudge.

INAL but my understanding was a lot of the fines and penalties hung on IE being part of the OS. I think it was the update functionality but don't quote me.

So with some legal technicalities, later versions of windows made it "not" part of the OS just a bundled application. A legal distinction without meaning but it meant they didn't need to do these things anymore.

Prusa has that option too. It does perimeter last by default because that's safer when you have overhangs. It gives the external perimeter something more to stick too and not sag. In extreme cases it can even lead to printing disconnected overhangs first like the inner perimeter of a vertical screw hole which just weld to your support and make a mess.

External perimeter first does provide more detail though (specifically dimensional accuracy in the prusa help) and can avoid some artifacts so if it's safe for your part it's nice.

Maybe, but I do believe at least then being aspirationaly not evil made it a much different company. It made people try to be better both in and outside google even if at some level it was still a big corp doing big corp things.

Whatever it is now is a boring husk of what it was and I think you can draw a line from that to those naive people and their belief in that principle trying to make awesome things and a better world.

Maybe that's just me looking back with rose colored glasses though.

1 of 4 comments addressed. You showed me 😁

I prefer privacy badger because it does more then block ads and is generally a bit nicer to sites.

But really it was supposed to be a satirical comment on the state of the web anyways.

After waiting for the page to load, fighting through ads triggering redraws, dismissing cookie banners, closing the notification request...

It's a toss up.

I don't know if there could have been a comment that sums up the problem. To this person Netflix is no longer a product; it's not about the best content or the best experience anymore. It's about getting your buck.

Netflix used to have the best content online at the best price. It now has neither and I don't know how anyone still rationalizes subscribing.
