Realist
I'm a little confused how OOP is moving the welcome mat without triggering the camera. Though I'm sure this story is $100% real.
Not just the knowledge and time but the urgency too. It was an emergency.
My head canon is that this comic made people work harder on image recognition.
Web browsers don't make money. It's why only chrome basically exists and that's a cost center to support Google's Internet ad hegemony and they spend billions a year on it.
Yep. Well, I don't necessarily agree it started exclusively for the ads, but they definitely wanted to create something that they control. Microsoft Edge and Opera switching to Chromium just means Google has more soft control on how the web operates. (Even saying "soft" there is pretty generous.) A majority of browsers are Chromium forks. Google can control how the web operates because of it.
But to your point though, thwarting ad blocking is a huge part of it now. The manifest V3 changes (which severely limited what sorts of ad blocking extensions could do) came the same year they listed ad blocking as a significant risk to their revenue in their shareholder statement. Which, I just wanna mention for folks who might not be keeping up with this as much, isn't some sort of conspiratorial statement. It's a public document because they're a publicly traded company.
LibreOffice just doesn't roll of the tongue like OoenOffice though. Which really sucks. I even catch myself saying it when I mean LibreOffice.
Tuning forks are big fake

Edit: That was supposed to be a corkscrew joke but sparkling wine doesn't need a corkscrew. Oops.
I try to point it out to everyone I see who is marked as a bot who seems human because you can also enable an option to filter all self marked bots out.
I can't stand Twitch. I don't mind live streamers' edited clips on YouTube but watching it live is just such a drag to me.
That's so fucking weird! I wish we could hear a recording. That's amazing.
It's a meme, I don't think folks are meant to view this as something other than ironic.
