Imma blow your mind, but all cars have this same problem. Literally any car that doesn't have ppf film on it should have bird poop and bugs cleaned off ASAP. It will discolor your paint, make it chip easier, or at worst make it completely fall off in that spot. Especially if you live in an area where birds have access to berries and stuff that can make their poop even more acidic.

Steam literally started as a way to easily patch and find servers for your valve games. They didn't start selling other games on there until a few years later.

But that's the thing though right? No man's sky will always be known for sucking at first. Sure it got better, but it did suck. It will forever have that taint of sucking attached to it.

It's better to be remembered as being good from the start.

I was gonna say, maybe he knocked Santa off a roof or something.

I'm currently using a Samsung flip 5. I have it set up to use all my main apps on the outer screen, so I can just have a small screen. Then I have the option to open it for apps that I might want to be on a larger screen.

It's working out pretty well. Some days I never even use the inner screen.

They could make a small screen phone, but thicker to make more room for a bigger battery.

Work at a dishwasher factory. We used to make a model with windows, they were really expensive parts, which meant that they were really expensive dishwashers for a feature that really isn't useful.

It makes sense in a microwave or oven because you can check in and make sure it's all good, or pull it out if it's done. You can't do that with a dishwasher, it just runs it's course.

Plus all you could see in the thing was splashing soap water.

I think you call his bluff, play chicken with him. See what he comes up with as his terms to the agreement, read the contract, have lawyers check it for loopholes and it they find one, sign the deal and exploit it.

Then donate the money to another foundation.

At some point I'd be willing to bet he would back down and not follow through, but anybody that is in a position to call him on his bullshit should do it

My problem with all of it is, they've built that shit into the browser. That means baked into the browser, it is watching what I'm doing and doing things on its own based on what I do.

It leaves the door open for them to bother me/phone home anytime I do something that isn't in their interests. Are they going to add in similar things for me looking for windows, office, GitHub, or Xbox alternatives?

I wonder if you could make a context aware sorting system for files. Like if there are a handful of files all similarly named, it could check for sequential numbers and roman numerals and spelled out numbers and just sort them that way.

It's more about the fact that why does the streaming service get to earn money in perpetuity for someone else's work and the creators of that work don't get to as well?

If you are jealous of that model, you should probably be fighting for it for yourself as well, not blocking the way for the ones who are trying to fight for themselves.

I think the original quote was something along the lines of, "the customer is always right, in mattera of taste". Meaning to accommodate the customers wishes, even if it's ugly or a bad idea or whatever. Like if they want to paint their house pink with green trim, let them
