Google should have to clearly communicate to users what they did. Only few will even read and know about this. Rarely anybody will care.

Misbehavior on such a scale should at least be communicated so users can make an informed decision on their continued trust.

Given that their mediation is binding to discord too, depending on the mediator, it can be a good thing for customers too.

Opting out may be the safe way. But I have to wonder if that clause would be binding. ToS can’t overrule law.

You can’t continue the setup process without connecting to a wifi network. There is no alternative in the UI.

It is.

Blazor is a big framework. It gives you a lot, but as a framework, also introduces stack complexity.

Being able to code on one C# codebase for a web application client and server is great. It’s very fast. You can use modern C# syntax. You have component (CSS) isolation. You can switch and mix between runtime targets (server dom rendering and sending diff-updates or client-side app execution).

At work, we’re using it for a webportal/webapp and I have not fundamentally regretted us using it. It’s definitely not worse than anything else. For a productive development and product there’s a little bit of framework knowledge you have to learn, but that’s not different than any other framework. And docs are very good.

I love how fast it feels to use the end product too.

Banelings are created from zerglings following a brief chrysalis phase. In the new form, the zergling’s claws shrivel and become withered, and a swollen sac filled with volatile chemicals grows out of its back. The zergling’s skin is repurposed, stretching over newly formed growths while its bone plates soften to hold bulbous, pulsating acid sacs in place. Though the remains of the carapace offer no real protection, they allow for unhindered delivery of the baneling’s payload. The digestive and reproductory tracts are assimilated as nutrients to accelerate the process, and make room for the fleshy, mutated adrenal glands. These are re-purposed to produce and store large quantities of highly corrosive acid. Few materials can withstand this acid burst.

When a baneling gets close enough to an enemy, it triggers a reaction within its volatile chemical payload, causing the creature to explode with a shower of searing acid. The explosion destroys the baneling but also inflicts terrible damage to its enemies, highly effective against both structures and ground forces.

I think we saw how that goes in a Rick and Morty episode - Lawnmower Dog.

a worked - apparently doesn’t even need to be a valid/web email address

Before using any potentially valid domain name I try to use example.com, which is guaranteed to not be in use or claimable.

This laptop has no way to disable wifi. I at least did not find anything - no such function key. And the Windows setup required you to connect to a wiki, with no way to proceed otherwise. Like, wtf?

Maybe add a Solopilot key too so I can use a local Windows account, and not have to uninstall adware or disable online-search when I search my PC.

That looks like cake

I just set up an HP Laptop for someone and Windows setup is horrendous. Fuck you Microsoft.

There’s no way around using a Microsoft account, but when you enter an invalid login, you can proceed setting up a local account anyway. Then all the shit is set up to my disliking. And of course, Microsoft installs its own services adware and additional third-party adware you can’t uninstall, and then, HP does the same, installing more scamware. Disgusting.

I actually implemented super tic tac toe in Blazor a while ago. It’s interesting to play.

Why do I not win with a row on the outer field?

It counts won fields instead?

I say fault lies not with only one, but both.

Krita doesn’t have an Android app version though, does it?

You quoted the wrong/other comment

Yes, exactly. That’s what I was referring to in my last sentence.

My LG asked me whether I want to enable the smart voice, listening, and AI stuff and I declined.

I am astonished by an established, commercial website having good structure.

It looks like a documentation website. Sidebar with clear categories and navigation. I really like it.
