"standard"...
Having the middle click paste is incredibly handy and practical. When I started using Linux almost 30 years ago (rocking Afterstep as desktop) I found it strange. Now it's hard to live without it. It improves your productivity a lot.

They do and it's well known, as well as being the beach head to influence freedesktop.org

The N9 is, IMHO, the best phone I've ever had. I miss it dearly. It was destroyed by the Nokia authorized repair center when doing routine maintenance under warranty.

That phone was way ahead of its time in features (twice ahead compared with the iPhone, which only matched its features over five years later). And its performance compared with the flagship Android phones at the time (all with double the cores and double the RAM) was unparalleled.

Vidago, Pedras Salgadas, Vitalis and MelgaÃo are all from the same company (Unicer / Super Bock Group - yes, the beer one), different springs around the country (wife's deployef there doing IT work). They're all quite good. Some undergo treatment before bottling to remove excess iron content (MelgaÃo and Pedras at least). Pedras even has some delicious flavoured editions (lemon, tangerine, red fruits, passion fruit and pineapple). But the prices are *nowhere* near the article. A pack of four 0.25L bottles of flavoured Pedras is 2.19â (close to the same on dollars). And Vidago around 1.75 for a pack of the plain carbonated water.

Those still fall under the categorias I mentioned

I'm like "what the hell, Mozilla???"

But then, which non-Blink/Chromium/WebKit browser wiki I use?

Well said.

I would also add: if I have something to say about an an issue, I (try to) directly address the issue, not the person. Even when I find them aggravating. What little power we do have relates to discussion and sharing ideas about the issues at hand, and what charities we do — or don't — thoughtfully engage with.

While many are locked to one side or the other in our highly polarized political climate, some people can be moved by reasoned discussion. I even try to be one of those people. Mostly. :)

... scrolls past giant banner ads, to find the (already checked) "Ads Disabled Thanks again for helping make Slashdot great!"

To your point, it's ccertainly perfect for this story.

But you know, they have to do something to increase revenue, since they've been entirely unable to update the site's code... you know, like supporting Unicode, which was introduced in 1991. Not to mention a bunch of useful HTML and trivial convenience features like markdown. Or making the firehose useful, or coming up with a modern user-moderation system.

I don't visit https://soylentnews.org any longer — not my cup of tea, community-wise — but it's worth noting they fixed the slashdot codebase years ago.

I still chuckle when Slashdot fronts me with an ad telling me I should put my code on their archive; they can't even manage this place worth a damn, and they want me to trust them with my code? That's a solid LOL. Also, No.

But we've dropped really low if we even skip OP or can't remember it a couple PgDn's further, haven't we.

Sir, this is a Wendy's.

Now, would you like a slightly smaller burger with your slightly smaller portion of fries?

BTW, that'll be 5% more with the new pricing.

Raising a question is asking a question

Sure. But that's not the phrase. The phrase is "raises the question."

FTFS:

Voters don't like high prices, so they punished the Democrats for being in charge when inflation hit.

Well, actually, voters don't like high prices, so they punished the Democrats for being in charge when corporate price gouging and housing price gouging hit and never backed off.

Also, because they have no other lever to "encourage" the corrupt political system to do something about it. Not that they will, of course. Have to keep those sweet corporate bribe flows running smoothly.

Buttons are fast.
Buttons are positive.
Buttons are easy to learn.

Voice is slow.
Voice is subject to noise.
Voice is subject to music, in particular music that isn't coming from the car's systems.
Voice is subject to multi-voice conflicts / conversation.
Voice is subject to misinterpretation.
Voice can give passengers access to driver-only decisions.
Voice can give bystanders access to driver-only decisions.

However, buttons cost more — and that's the motivation for the claim.

In addition, touchscreens and menus are actively dangerous because they remove the driver's visual attention from the road.

In other UI news, Apple, not satisfied with having put the charging port on the bottom of the "magic" mouse, has put the power button on the bottom of the latest Mac Mini.

I swear, I want to take a rolled up newspaper and just beat on some of these incompetent decision makers until the paper turns to dust.

Keep an eye out for wet bulb temperatures in your area. They are already becoming common in southern parts of the USA and can easily kill people.

We are deeper into the FO phase than I thought we would be at this point. Drought, wildfires, unprecedented flooding, plants no longer able to take up carbon, the poles and oceans 20 degrees hotter than what used to be normal... and it's going to continue to accelerate as the profiteers are still fucking around as hard and fast as possible.

I don't know why it's the wrong time. Any time for this move is okay. Just do it.

If Bezos were telling the truth — and clearly, he's not — he would see to it that the paper had no "opinion" section. You know, so it could make an honest attempt at reporting the news instead of trying to influence people by publishing the opinions and reasoning of various movers and shakers.

But he's not doing that. He's taking one action: keeping the stated and clear opinion of the paper's editorial crew (which has been openly stated outside the paper's environs as favoring Kamala Harris by the editorial crew) from being printed in the paper.

It's a completely transparent implementation of a pro-Trump move.

And as far as tradition goes, opinion sections have been, and remain, ubiquitous across almost every newspaper out there.

Bezos is a chump making a douche move.

This will leave the market free to be exploited for profit by those reputable companies who can be bothered to produce high quality software through the choice of secure development tools, defensive programming and testing

Well, that leaves out Apple and Microsoft, based on software release behaviors to date.
