Betterbird doesn't solve all of Thunderbird's problems, but it *does* act a little more sanely in many respects, and the search works a bit better on my machines.

Why would you presume *that* from what was written?

What?

Ever since I started writing code in 1980, I've continually wondered if we'll ever reach a plateau where consumer-affordable tech is so good the average person won't need it to advance anymore. Eventually computing and networking will be fast enough, and storage will be huge enough, that we can all essentially have full copies of the Internet on our phones (or whatever), and intelligent, locally-running agents that can tell us anything we want to know, conversationally in realtime, including results that require analysis. At that point what would a faster or bigger computer do for you? Hardware and software will definitely get there, but getting permission to have and manipulate the content will be an even bigger barrier. I don't see a scenario like this happening as long as economics is still a force in the world. Food and electricity will probably be free before information will.

"Go away! Batin'! ...
Please."

is not politeness. What this plan *may* do is rotate out people until the ones who are genuinely polite get to the customer-facing positions. It may also devalue politeness to the point of being worthless. Regardless of the mechanism behind the scenes, people are going to be suspicious of whomever is interacting with them.

I see what you did there.

Fox News is just about always truthful. You just have to watch out for the tricks they use (on 95%+ of their stories)...

(1) non-representative selection. Headline "illegal immigrant murders local mother", which is true in this case, but they don't report the other 99 murders that went by immigrants, and don't report a general trend of immigrants causing less crime overall per capita. (I made up this specific example to illustrate their trick)

(2) report quotes: headline "Biden's senility was covered up, says person". They are 100% factually reporting that the person did indeed say this.

In both cases the reader is left with an untrue impression despite the stories containing only truth. It's because it's not the whole truth.

With enough *low entropy* energy, and a large enough heat-sink to capture the higher-entropy energy after the process. Energy is a requirement, sure, but it's not all.

Maybe you didn't mean to react to the security researcher's quotes, but too bad. It was there, in the public posting space. So I'm going to drop part of it here:

"I had the ability to delete any of the video footage or evidence by simply pressing a button. I could see the paths where all of the evidence files were located on the file system..."

That's part of the "so what?".

Indeed! Even worse than borderless windows.

Kind of, but with discrete transitions (at least for the neuronal potential in one direction. There's hysteresis built in). The states are pseudo-binary, very much unlike analog computers.

Thanks. I did indeed miss it in the headline, especially since it was misquoted by the OP (but the meaning is taken).

Where did you see the phrase "a software"? Maybe my searching ability has degraded: I don't see that use anywhere in the summary, in the original article, or on the BigBlueButton main webpage.
      Thanks.
