• I did in the past: Replace .bik intro video file with an “empty” one to skip intros
• I know of, haven’t used: Change game window to be borderless with Borderless Gaming
• IIRC I’ve used Cheat Engine, before it was littered with shit, to speed up an awfully slow singleplayer game
• In Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory (W:ET) I had a whole setup of config scripts for key bindings
• For W:ET server hosting I put configuration into a deliberate, structured set of files (it’s not necessarily obvious between splitting base game and alternateable mod configuration)

So to me, saying “we don’t know if it was sexting,

They may have not known the source and tweet wording. I certainly didn’t.

/edit: I see it’s in the article as well.

I think we’re off a lot better. We have a lot more choice, and much less bad choices.

The value of Bitcoin has only increased over time

And not only a bit. A fall from 67 to 16.

Will it move the mouse for me?

I think it’s very possible.

With the right causation or correlation, the correct person is identified.

Whether right reason refers to being mad at the person for the related reason or the reason itself being valid and rightful, both are possible.

Right time is related to the cause of anger as well as when the anger takes place. Both is possible to be at the right time.

You can even be angry without any visible indication. There’s also cases where an aggressive response is the right response. Proper response is possible too.

Seems fairly obvious and to be expected that they would do that, given their intelligence and environment and utility use.

Still, important and significant to observe and prove in the wild. Especially as not one-off random anecdotal observations.

I think you can learn it when you’re younger than 20 years old

I mean, there’s emojis like bee snuggle fox available

and noted that the planes won’t be delivered to Israel for years

…but will it get better or worse in those years?

How do you want us to push for peace there too? Because we have been since the beginning of the war in my eyes.

What do you mean by “won’t recover from”? Because they have lost things that can’t be recovered since the beginning of the war. Russia is losing things they can’t recover too; thousands of its people for example, it’s money reserves, its military inventory, its non-military-sector economy. Where do you draw the line for Russia and Ukraine of what is “won’t recover from”? Western nations have already committed to helping rebuild the country and especially its destroyed infrastructure.

How is the war in Ukraine “quickly turning into a much bigger global conflict”? Fighting is still only within Ukraine and the border to Russia. Western material support has been the case since the beginning.

I have to assume by pushing for peace you mean Ukraine should accept losing large parts of its territory and human atrocities in order for the fighting to end. Is letting Russia win going to reduce conflict long term though? They’ll have more resources to invade other countries next. And proof that it’s a worth investment. That works and they win from. There was precedent before the current war in Ukraine, which is why they started this invasion in the first place. Only this time it didn’t go as smoothly.

Thank you

What are you referring to as obviously fake? The article about that bot account?

So it was falling for three years

… any text form?

The only way to meaningfully advocate for it after your company already announced their conditions and offerings is to present value gain.

What do you suggest concretely? What should be offered under what conditions? What would that mean as cost? What would the benefit be? How substantial is it?

Reaching out privately to them is certainly going beyond what you are employed for. I don’t know about ill-advised - if you never disclose it or are at least mindful of that. But it’s a personal assessment. You seem to be willing to invest a lot into a single customer, who tries to do something not offered or considered by the company. Whether it’s personal interest, or first a broader better understanding of the use case, I can see how it could be worth or worthwhile. But I wouldn’t get my hopes up about changing the opinions of your company [from their information alone].

Your company offered API access. So there is an interface available. They won’t make it free unless they see and deem it worth it to do so.

A block on Twitter doesn’t say anything unless you know why they were blocked and know the person. Blocking can be more than warranted and justified. Be it spam, toxicity, harassment, or similar things. “I saw a screenshot of someone being blocked on Twitter” is not a good foundation for an argument.

They talk about malware in npm packages. One example isn’t enough to make a general claim that all software with political opinions or voices becomes malware.

When a platform follows sanctions, and the law, I don’t think you can claim them to be political and activism decisions. If you want to make that argument and want to do so in an absolutist fashion (not assess and reduce risks but evade them entirely), then you can only self-host and I guess on your own servers? No platforms, no services?

Nowadays, there are many teams who buy popular apps and browser extensions to inject malware.

… which has nothing to do with political views and especially not political views of the original authors and sellers.

As you can see, the “opinion” or “political view” of a company is not only a way to hype on sanctions and curry favor with investors, the government, and consumers, but it is also a clear signal about potential threats. It signals that your sensitive data may be hijacked, sold, or wiped anytime if the political compass spins tomorrow and recognizes you as an enemy.

No. None of what was written before showed me any of that.

Some of the red flags I actively use to reject software:

Direct political opinions in a product’s blog, like “we support X” or “we are against X”

“We are free software and we support free software” -> REJECTED! (?)
