That’s the point, DRM would force everyone to use a “compliant” browser (Chrome, or extension-free Firefox etc), and the other browsers might not be able to show content; they may also lock the content from copying and editing without special tools, just like website video DRM works now
But we already see “sorry you’re running adblocker so no content for you” websites, so I’m not sure if that’s gonna change much
That’s pretty cool, I like watching GT endurance races, but I gueas no invite no play
Funnily enough, they still make them, both on steaming platforms and on CDs, swear to god there’s one on my nearest Tesco’s shelf
What’s on Racing4Everyone? Steams/videos of motorsports events? Racing games?
Most probably not, at least in my programs I’ve never made a flag, because my delays are usually no more than 3 seconds anyway
I’m pretty sure it’s either a myth (that it doesn’t work) or some US-centric thing, because when I worked as a delivery guy, I used to go through probably hundreds of different elevators in high-density residential buildings, and most of them have doors that stay open very long to allow baby strollers and heavy appliances to be placed inside, and on pretty much all of these the door closing button works, immediately closing the door
This is what I and many other programmers have done (not the removal, but fake delays), because it improves user experience, actually:
1.When the user clicks a button that should take long in their mind (like uncompressing a zip file etc) but is actually fast, it might seem like something is wrong and it didn’t work
2.When the user transitions between layouts of the application, if it loads everything too fast it will look too abrupt, a fake delay will be made here if a transition animation is not possible/doesn’t fit

Mechanical keyboard. Almost had no money back then, but wanted to treat myself. It costed 100$, and I regretted it the next morning. Felt like shit, but it was so cool to type on.
After 5 years, this metal-frame keyboard managed to survive many outside gigs, long travels, literal war, and it’s still with me. And I still love typing on it. Sometimes I code just to type. You can guess why I don’t use code completion tools.
But how do you use less paper for it, compared to just turning the page around yourself?
It’s called amd64 because AMD invented the x86-64 processor instruction set, it works both on Intel and AMD
I used them a couple of times, I like them; I use them when the post I REALLY like doesn’t have much upvotes. Like when I see post with 24 upvotes that deserves 400+ I give it gold, so the user will still feel happy.
Disclaimer though, I received all my points from winning a big sub contest, I didn’t ever pay for them.
Any of them if you register for just one year lol
I used namecheap because they had .com for I think 11$ on sale, and I bought two domains for my stuff
But they sure ask a lot for cool names
I hate places with quotas that are so high/weird. My buddy that works at a gas station says that he has to sell people 5 wiper fluids a day, or he won’t get the “premium” (read: they will cut the regular pay). Their brand wiper fluid costs 3x the regular fluid that is sold in the store right across the road…
Same except with the website HTTPS cert. One client asked me to help them “steal” a website they made from a website maker tool and I did, and added a cert myself. Now every few months I get succesful cert update notifications lol, and they don’t have access to any hosting panels. Hope it will never say it wasn’t successful…
I feel bad for anyone who works at any call center, it always either got some MLM vibes or managers are hell on earth
And it’s dirt cheap
Before the war in Ukraine I had stable 1 Gbit/s for 5$/month with two dedicated IPs
Here in Ireland you get 100 Kbits/s sometimes because they can’t pull you a fiber connection and 4G towers are overloaded to hell, and it costs 20-40€/month
