Still worth calling out. Things are needlessly strained enough.

It's not ours.

There would have to be FCC filings. It wouldn't be an actual secret. Usually journalists pick up on these sorts of things because FCC filings are a way to get a scoop on upcoming products before they are announced.

They can justify it by saying that's how they show the discovered sources/sinks in the companion app on your phone. Whether that's even a reason or not, I have no idea.

An en dash is closer to 1.5 hyphens.

One thing that Macs do better. Option + hyphen = en dash, Option + Shift + hyphen = em dash.

Engrish 101?

Having real alpha without requiring lossless photos is probably the big benefit on the web as far as file size. But this format seems like a kitchen sink. It might as well not be named JPEG-XL and be named WebP-XL considering the feature overlap.

As an American Netflix user, I fully support it. It helps that Netflix tends to buy out worldwide streaming rights on the shows they produce, so I just have access to content from more places.

Flush the toilet with unknown contents. It's not evidence. If you put a landmine in the bathroom and someone steps on it, they didn't blow themselves up - you did it.

It's not really just a storefront. These are usually a launcher and installer/updater as well.

I imagine my odds in small claims court would be better. But with dollar amount limits, a burned down house might end up with thousands of individual cases for "single 2x4 structural lumber" and so on.

Music piracy was already mostly solved by just selling tracks digitally at a decent price. Even better when it was DRM-free. The music industry realized that they could just rent it out for more money without getting rid of that market, so it's great for consumer choice. Some consumers might be getting a bad deal if they're paying monthly to listen to a very limited selection of music repeatedly.

TV/Movie content never had anything but physical media with content protection and streaming. Even then, live content is treated as super premium but most of the cost is the exclusivity agreements.

Even their Github reads like marketing, even while calling out that it's not just marketing.

It wasn't that hard to read unless I misread. The curation happens before using. By giving it API information and credentials to connect to company systems.
