You can only get away with this for a bit. The card processors analyze the data for servers making exessive tips. So you could steal some money, but not likely enough to matter.

Maybe Youtube will go all in and get rid of the long form videos, and people like me who don't like that crap will get several competing websites to choose from.

It's actually supposed to be "zero days since discovery". The point being that the more days that pass, the more people who will find out about it, and thus, less valuable.

The term stems from software priacy in the BBS days of the 80's. There used to be different places to upload games based on how old they were labeled like "0 day", "1 day", "5-10 day", etc.

I never really understood the obsession so many had with 0 day warez. Like it being new made it better, and tomorrow it'd be less useful.

I don't play online games like CoD, etc. I do, however, play a lot of chess, both in person and online, and have been run over 100 USCF rated tournaments.

There are a lot of rules in place for USCF tournaments to make sure players are matched against similarly matched players, and most people like that, even the good players.

However there are certain people who would ask to "play up", meaning put them in with the higher rated players. They'd get creamed, of course, but their goal was to learn to get better, and were motivated by getting creamed rather that by beating an opponent they had a 50/50 shot at.

In a few instances, the good players got fed up with playing the lower rated players and would ask me to create a private section just for the top few rated players.

So I think it would interest a lot of players if they were given an option to "play up" in CoD type games too.

The second language is always the hardest. Usually you have an idea of how to do it in your better known language and don't have the right terms and mindset to figure out how to do it in another. It depends on what your goals are, but you're usually better off knowing how lots of different languages handle things so when you come across something different you can just say "Oh, thing language has a different stupid way of doing that." Because they all have their WTF parts.

Not a military expert here. But rather than using an enormously expensive and complex weapon the can be defeated by just looking in a different direction, why not just shoot them? Leave the lasers for use in Bond movies.

Just another example of how the choice of words was deliberatley chosen to bias the reader's opinion.

I'm going to check back in on this report next year to see if it's been abandonded.

No doubt side loading will become more preveleant because of this. Let's just hope it's enough to make it the norm, and Google as a gatekeeper disappears.

I knew the article was BS just from the claim the Youtube was promoting firearms. I honestly believe the only reason any firearms content is allowed on Youtube is because there's enough demand for such content, it would create a large competitor to Youtube.

The sunrise and sunset are not symetric about the solstices. E.g. The earliest sunset here in Louisville is around Dec 5, but the latest sunrise is around Jan 5. But near the summer solstice, the earlist sunrise/latest sunset are separated only by a few days.

Here's a graph to visualize it: https://celestialprogramming.c...

Are you aware you can do this without anyone else changing what they're doing? Seems like you're offended by how other people write applications.

I just tested Firefox and Chrome on my Galaxy s9 in power save mode. 33.96 for Chrome and 28.3 for Firefox. A 15% difference on things that appear instantaneous isn't going to be a deciding factor for me.

NASA made the decision to extend operations until 2030. There has been no decision that it will be scrapped after that. Only read the link titled "confirmed" in the summary, it has all of the info you need to know, skip the BS article from the Gaurdian which is just speculation.

The reason many people are drawn to chess is that it has been the same for so long, and is expected to remain the same for a long time to come. People are not going to put a lot of time and effort into learning about a game that will be obsolete in a few years.

I think very few regular players think there's a need for a change. On lichess alone, there are millions of games played per day, the overwhelmingly majority of which are not draws.

Try playing against real opponents at your level. It makes it a lot more fun because you both make the same type of mistakes at about the same rate. It helps you get better and finding your opponent's mistakes as well as avoid making them yourself.

The mistakes computers make are usually not at all like the ones you'll make yourself.
