If this is a real headline then the author is either incompetent regarding code and the complexity of big projects or very competent in regards to marketing and making ragebait headlines. Either of the two.

Then that town better supports LGBT rights cause I gonna max out those relationship hearts with everyone. Now eat your tasty gemstone.

Don’t they want to monetize those as well?

Or start insulting you. Someone actually responding with a link, even to propaganda trash like Fox, is a more rare occasion.

Ah, the old “homeless people will just blow money you give them on shit” trope.

Despicably inhumane bullshit, not funny.

Lol, you still got snow?

The safest format I can think off would probably be mp4, with h264 for video streams and mp3 for audio streams. Unless you go for ancient technology basically anything should be able to open those files.

Perhaps Spacebar is a thing (the client of choice would be Fermi I think). Didn’t try it myself yet though, I do not know about how well its security protocol works. I’d assume it uses just a standard TURNS server for audio and video though.

Then of course there’s Matrix with Jitsi plugin, which will give you persistent headaches and a new appreciation of touching grass. It’s a mess, but hypothetically offers E2EE (if it works).

it’s been flawless for me

What kind of deal-with-the-devil black magic fuckery have you done to be able to write that? I’m happy if Matrix actually sends damn pictures and gave up completely on verifying my sessions.

Wider sidewalks would solve the clogging problem and allow runners to pass

3-4 people going next to each other still successfully clogg wide paths.

Why are you bicycling on the sidewalk?

There are a lot of shared sidewalks where I live, more often than not to connect two (often newer) actual bicycle paths so cyclists don’t have to constantly push their bike for short periods.

That’s how people clog the damn sidewalk.

Bonus points if all of them have earphones and can’t hear your bicycle bell.

This is framing. They back away from forcing companies offensively, now they tell them they got to implement technology to protect against it.

It’s less clear what the hell now happens, but threatens companies if they don’t implement something. The result will now be the same but the marketing is easier, and that’s clearly the goal.

So that’s why I’m still so useless. Damn chemo, you took my chance.

A device commonly designed to make us addicted to extortive systems filled with highly manipulative algorithms is bad for people, and especially so for young people? Gasp I’m shocked!

…but seriously, who is even surprised by this? The only thing I’d want for these rules is to have an exception for dumb phones and mp3 players. This wouldn’t violate the idea behind the Smartphone ban.

Yeah, LibreOffice stuck with the old UI/UX for better and worse. Luckily we do have a nice selection of Office Suites in addition to them. OnlyOffice, WPS Office, Collabora, KDE Calligra, Softmaker Office… surely there’s one for everyone on Linux.

Personally I like OnlyOffice.

We all forget what it really was to be 6, yet we’re still us. To never change yourself isn’t a virtue and change doesn’t mean “losing yourself”, that’s a fallacy made up by the fearful. Friendship is also a temporary thing, you always lose some and gain some no matter how close (we as humans just hate to think about it that way).

All these supposed problems with immortality really are just made up, or an attempt to romanticise the painfully inevitable.

They’re open about it [1, 2, 3]. Even praise it as “the next big thing”, and use stuff you smear into your face as example.

It’s kinda funny once you accept our twisted dystopia.

The hell is wrong with people. It can’t even be art by the very definition of art. It’s literally just lifeless pixel mush done by nobody, showing nothing, meaning nothing.

Most aren’t allowed to choose… they’re just made to “look just like daddy down there”. Especially US culture is so fucked up in this regard.

(millenia old rituals might be bad as well)

No, I don’t think so. US americans got widely manipulated into believing early foreskin amputation is cleaner, “better” and perhaps even more natural by a homophobe rich guy (Kellogg - yes, that one) who saw it as a way to prevent children from masturbating. Sometimes it goes so far they even find normal penisses disgusting or something not normal, which this comic is portraying. By now they managed to build a whole industry around it, with baby foreskins being an ingredient for - and that’s also no joke - skincare products. And of course the high need and therefore sales of Viagra are also attached to it. So this perverted culture gets reinforced by multiple economical incentives by now.

And if you think that’s utterly fucked up… well yeah, it is. Way, WAY more than a bad joke about someone who wishes to date someone with the same religion and is a dick about it.
