Meanwhile the gambling spam I get from Firebase to my Hotmail address still reaches me at a rate of six emails per day.
The European Union should start fining these companies per volume of spam sent (and accepted).

I just listen to songs I like on YouTube (ads blocked).

I hate that I can't edit comments on this platform, the " ." (space dot) really bugs me.

What a great idea! Maybe Photoshop should also charge an affordable monthly fee instead of a one-time large one, I'm sure that this subscription model will 100% benefit consumers .

In fact everything should be turned into a pay2win subscription with gamification and cosmetics operated by Amazon, Meta, Microsoft, and Google.

Anyone considering trying nicotine pouches as a nootropic should first check out the horror stories on the QuittingZyn subreddit, of people having a bad time with them.

I just use Notepad as a clipboard for text snippets I want to tweak and eventually paste somewhere, when they're not complex / permanent enough for Notepad++. All of these new "features" are actually breaking my use cases. I won't upgrade to Windows 11.

Surely they mean some other measuring unit, not GB? Even 50 TB wouldn't be "massive".

"Europe ceded the entire EV market years ago to China."

Factually incorrect. This would imply that all/most new EV cars on the roads in Europe are Chinese brands, which is simply not the case.

"Unfortunately"? TypeScript is great. I actually enjoy working with Next.js and TypeScript.

The last CS game I played was 1.5, the last to have the iconic HL1-era orange menus and the specific menu sounds. The most you could customize were the sprays. So imagine my shock when I found out it now features ...loot boxes and cosmetics? I will never understand people who would pay for such things.

I've been receiving spam from onmicrosoft subdomains for years. Every time I reported it to Microsoft's CERT, they replied that the report couldn't be verified. Microsoft and Google are the primary source of spam I get, and both platforms chose not to implement very simple measures to prevent their platforms from being used by spammers.

I've seen at least one instance of an IDE coding assistant refactoring and breaking unrelated working code while told to perform another task on the same file.

Edit: I misread your original reply, and I see what you mean: instead of swapping the mitochondria, they swapped the nucleus. That makes sense.

Most cell types in every human body, regardless of sex, contain mitochondria. They're what power the cells. It's true that with very few exceptions, people usually get them from their mother, but there have also been recorded cases where the father's mitochondria made it into the next generation, see the Wikipedia page "Paternal mtDNA transmission".

Why not just use the mitochondria from the father if the problem was with the ones provided by the mother?
