  • I’m fairly sure Microsoft is actively trying to screw Firefox. Outlook has always sucked in Firefox, teams is a shit show. When you use a useragent switcher somehow a lot of features seem to work magically in Firefox (which tells me MS is doing this on purpose).

    For Outlook (exchange) I use Thunderbird with a paid plug-in (to make the 2FA stuff work). It’s pretty cheap and totally worth it for me at least.

    I don’t know about the windows stuff, haven’t used it in years. But back in the day installing Ubuntu was super easy (just boot from USB stick and install and mostly everything works). But a fresh windows install was a real pain like downloading drivers for all your hardware etc.

    Nowadays it’s pretty easy in both cases I guess.




  • No you’re not, the post was editted. The original one said it was all because of AI, the entire reason for the API change was to sell to AI companies.

    Edit, now I’m in doubt, because if you edit a post that is shown somehow right?

    Edit2, just to be clear my point is that Reddit content was never free, before and after the API change. It’s easier to get the content with a decent API, sure. But it was never free, just like the lawsuit the NY Times started.




  • It’s not even that simple, because paying can be done with money, but you can also send troops, or have troops ready to protect other countries, send equipment, etc.

    So it’s not that black and white who pays what.

    Also I think the biggest think Trump did to NATO for the EU, is that for the first time people actually realized the US isn’t always the allie we thought. It really depends on who’s president, something before Trump most people never thought about. It also really pushed the point of having an European army and other changes like that.





  • I don’t think time doesn’t have meaning with a system like the beats system. It’s just that the meaning is more personal. For you 600 beats is dinnertime and for me it’s the moment the alarm clock wakes me up.

    Dinner is still at 600 for you and your entire city or country or state (depending on how big your country is).

    But for larger countries it can be that most stores close at 600 but some open earlier and close at 550 or something.

    At this moment we have a system that also can be pretty confusing. Like when you have a meeting with people in different timezones. Oh we meet at 14:30? Like our 14:30 or yours? Or when you do stuff with computer systems and 2 servers are in different timezones, it’s a nightmare


  • Actually it’s not that difficult, as you can see on the wiki page time is shown in

    @392.51

    So yeah there are fractions.

    Also I don’t really see the problem without timezones, so if it’s @451 maybe that is night for you and morning for me.

    It would actually make traveling easier, because you will immediately see what time it is for your family at home.

    Instead of the hours at a place being the same (like 19:20 is in the evening for everyone), now we keep the time the same but we have different experiences at certain beats.
