It’s a nice story, but it doesn’t seem to be accurate to what happened - not at far as I found with some superficial research [1][2]. I’d be interested in any further reading you have on the subject.

Though what I read, the US were still pretty much shitheads. No big surprises there

You get used to it after a couple uses - as in knowing where to position and how much knob to use. It’s always uncomfortable if you aren’t used to it.

Same. Get owned, everyone else.

No-one’s obligated to read trash. I don’t read other tabloids in case they might have a point.

I admire your willingness to engage and respond to vague BS. Keep on keepin on, dude. (also get some rest)

In a climate thats already saturated with “streaming services” Why even create a “streaming service” if the intention seems to be just “NASA news”. It would in my opinion still be better to partner with one of these larger streaming services in order to push NASA to more people.

Huh, that’s actually a reasonable point of view - none of which could’ve been extrapolated from your original comment. Thanks for clarifying.

The ad-free, no-cost streaming service will include live coverage of future launches, documentaries and new original series that will be exclusively available on the platform.

Protip: it’s better to respond to the article rather than what you think the headline means.

I keep thinking about my MiL when I hear this song - “I don’t like him”. She was in the same circles as Bill back in the day - apparently he was not a nice guy to women. I turn the volume up when it’s on because the song’s damn good, but still…

Online services cost a lot of money. People don’t realize how much because VCs and corpos w/ deep pockets have been subsidizing most major services for a long time. Now that the free money period is more-or-less over, these services need to start paying the bills with their users - commence enshittification

What changed is he started becoming more public. He’s always been a shithead. There were mentions of him abusing his employees back when I was in grad school in 2012. People on the internet just fell for his mythos and just kept ignoring signs to the contrary until he just…kept…talking… and couldn’t be ignored anymore.

I wish to subscribe to your newsletter. I’m guessing a search for open RTMP ports, geolocation, and a few other criteria?

The use of lead alloys in telecom cables started in the 1880s and the industry began to phase out placement of new lead-sheathed cables in the 1950s after developing a new type of sheathing," the trade group’s website said. “Some of these cables still provide customer voice and data services, including connecting 911 service, fire alarms, and other central monitoring stations.”

Sounds about right. So they did stop using it when the negative effects of lead started being more well-known. You know what happens when they try to remove that cable in favor of fiber? You get people who whine that the telcos are getting rid of landline copper connections.

Not sure if serious…

I’m not sure that’s correct. When I click your first link, it’s going to https://kbin.social/m/!technology@beehaw.org. What OP wants is a way to post the link and (in my case) go to https://melly.0x-ia.moe/c/technology@beehaw.org

You’re not paying them… you’re not their mother. You don’t get to force them to do anything they don’t want to do.

I’m trying to think of what it would be like if one of my projects had a defined roadmap and then I suddenly get hundred of messages a day telling me I have to do something. lol, no. Maybe if I was actually being paid well for the project.

… once again, the devs already said they would accept a PR with mCapchas. I don’t see why any capable dev would fork a project rather than just contribute code. The community can disagree all they want - it takes actual programmers to split.

It’s bonkers how much money you can save making food yourself by just planning meals based on what’s on sale this week. People don’t believe me, but chicken thighs/legs go on sale here every 3/4 weeks for 99 cents a pound. Week’s worth of meat for the equivalent price of a McD’s meal.

I thought the free awards thing stopped a while back. I’d be surprised if a lot of people still had them
