You say that as if I haven't had Chrome drive my machine deep into swap. Thankfully doubling my RAM to 32 GB seems to have put an end to that.

I wouldn't be shocked if the LPC calls a snap election to take advantage of the CPC weak leadership position. Truedau should be able to pull off another election win by scaring people about Poilievre. I keep waiting for the moment that the CPC remembers most Canadians want fiscal conservatives and not social conservatives.
Facebook, Reddit, now Instagram - all ruined by shit moderation.
No kidding. The best part about all of this is that actual porn spammers/dating site scammers are usually not touched by the moderators. Even the people selling $3000 items for $300 don't get touched even if the actual trademark owner complains.
Prime Minister Trudeau tends to avoid wanting to upset anyone so anything he does tends to be watered down so badly it does no real good at all. Things like the airline traveler's protection regulations with so many loopholes the airlines rarely have to pay compensation.
Never thought I would miss Jean Cretien, Paul Martin or even Steven Harper but here we are.
I disagree with that guess only because it would not explain the weird rendering bugs we see in production. The fact that Teams seems to know if it is on the right or left monitor suggests some other hackery
kid crowing about $24 an hour could almost double that with education/training, whether college or other type
I make close to triple that, and I have no formal training whatsoever beyond high school graduation.
The very large company I work for made a corporate decision to disable Skype for Business and standardize on Teams. That lasted about a month. I think it is still company policy, but Teams has been so buggy, everyone gave up and just uses Zoom for video conferencing. Connection issues, audio issues, screen sharing issues Just make our lives miserable and prevented actual work from being done.
My personal favorite (happened more than once):
Co worker: "Hey I can't see the shared content"
Me: "Move your Teams window to the monitor on the left"
Co worker: "That worked..."
Disney is following the bad path in streaming that many did - trying to be a one-stop-shop for content creation, and distribution. Instead content creators should create the content, then a separate company can stream it. Get rid of all the stupid exclusivities, it doesn't help. They made a lot of money when they licensed their content to multiple cable providers, so why do they think they need to keep it private to only their subscribers?
The problem is that much of the content created by Disney+ lately has been crap which to me is surprising since that used to be their strong suite. The Star Wars spinoffs have gotten boring and don't even get me started on how money they spent on an ad campaign trying to shove the latest season of the Kardashians down everyone's throats. Quite frankly, I haven't seen any compelling content from them lately. to be honest, their ad campaigns have actively kept me off their platform. If the Kardashians are your single biggest reason you think I should signup to your platform, I'm out.
The proper response is to get a couple of guys in a cessna with a shotgun to fly up and put a hole in it. It'll come down slowly and likely not be damaged substantially by the landing.
Unless it tears as soon as it is punctured. If that happens, you have what I hear is a fairly heavy object plummeting to the ground.
Sometimes China does things just to let the US know it can be trouble if it wants to be.
beyond just searching for keywords
That works for you? My problem with Amazon is that the stupid search engine substitutes keywords in a way that makes searching for an exact product, or worse yet exact specs extremely difficult
The reviews were likely real. When you see this, the seller had some other (cheaper) product up to get the volume up and customer reviews. The next step is to change the title and description to the new more expensive product and it ranks to the top thanks to all of the good reviews.
It was 3 towers joined by a mall. I could sit in my office desk and see into the apartments of the next tower over.
Or the city just won't rezone as residential.
In theory that is true, but what happens if you just can't get the business suits filled? At that point, it is better to get some money rather than none at all. I have already seen this in action since my old office was in a mall that had 3 towers and two towers had been converted to apartments.
