My gut suggests it’s a font issue, like librewolf is using a system font and firefox is using embedded or downloaded fonts.

backing that up with a search, I see there’s lots of people complaining of font rendering issues of various types in the librewolf subreddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/LibreWolf/search/?q=font

I don’t know what your fix is, but I hope this helps guide you.

.308 is 7.62, civilian measurement vs military (there’s actually implications related to pressures, sidewall thicknesses, machining tolerances, but yeah same same)

They do a plant based version that is still delicious and doesn’t upset lactose intollerent people.

This requirement is designed to be hard, and as such is a major red flag to me.
What else is this company going to be difficult with?
Can i only get customer support or cancel my account in person, between 9-4 on the 2nd Friday of the month?
I would consider alternatives, if possible.

This is how you end up with police making up an “anonymous tip” which allows them to gain a warrant and dig through the personal possessions of anyone they don’t like.

The problem isn’t solve with anonymity, but by actually protecting the whistle blowers.

TOTP is a defined standard, specifically RFC 6238.
But I still have 3 different apps on my phone so that I can get on to various customer VPNS. 🤷‍♂️

Can’t tell if you’re joking, but a Request For Comments is effectively a proposal for how a process should be performed.
Some of them are eventually ratified as internet standards by the IETF.
Plenty of them remain useful as defacto standards even without formal acknowledgement.

I agree, that’s why I said “and able”

You can interoperate with googles RCS.
If you are willing and able to enter a partnership like Samsung, you can do it fully (including encryption support etc).

Google are determined to not make it easy, and I agree with you, it appears to be yet another messaging land grab.

Trying to put myself in their headspace for a moment, one justification for making it hard is to stop thousands of apps coming out declaring “full RCS support!” through the APIs, then screwing the pooch (through poor security or deliberate back doors or or or).
Right now Google are desperately attempting to make RCS happen, after almost a decade of trying and failing to make various carriers play ball.
They do not want any bad press about how feature poor/insecure/slow/buggy it is right now.

Only Google can make an RCS app

Yes and no.
You don’t need to make your own OS, but you do need to implement support for the RCS protocol within your app, rather than piggyback on Googles APIs.

I don’t like it, but there’s no legal requirement for google to provide those APIs, like they did with SMS etc.

I’d guess the fine line is “Valve intend to earn money from something official in the future”

Windows XP is basically firmware at this point, and has been for over a decade.

Lots of proprietary hardware that works perfectly, will not work on newer versions of Windows due to lack of drivers.

I see it constantly in factory situations with scales, scanners and robot controllers, it would only be worse for million dollar x-ray machines.

it’ll work just like SMS does now

I agree with this part of your statement 100%.
It will work POORLY.

Whether it’s in the same app or simply a different colour like SMS is currently, it’ll be a half assed implementation, designed to segregate your iphone and android friends.

Got an existing iphone group chat? Bet you can’t add an RCS participant to it.
Create a new RCS group chat so you can include everyone? Bet it’s missing features that you’d get in imessage.
Receive a high resolution video from a friend via imessage? Forward that to another friend via RCS and they’ll receive 5 blurry pixels.

And throughout all of this, apple will blame the RCS protocol and say “We’re actively working with GSMA to improve RCS”.

No one trusts apple for the very simple reason that they have a habit of saying the quiet part out loud: Tim Cook Says ‘Buy Your Mom An iPhone’

There’s some gotchas in Apples statement:

They have promised to implement “RCS Universal Profile”
This means the bare minimum, not the advanced features implemented by Google and Samsung etc.
An example of a missing feature from Universal Profile is end to end encryption.

They also said: “This will work alongside iMessage, which will continue to be the best and most secure messaging experience for Apple users.”
The implication of this is that it won’t be in the iMessage app, it will be in a separate but official app, siloing your Android friends from your iPhone friends.

When this comes out, every European is going to shrug and keep using Whatsapp.

It’s not the android side that’s failing, it’s Apples refusal to implement anything other than SMS for cross ecosystem compatibility.

Think about your audience and the specific features that will potentially appeal to them.

Depending on who that user is, the same feature/quirk can be either a pro or a con.

There’s lower user numbers here compared to something like Reddit, but the people involved tend to be of an average higher tech literacy.
So there’s not as much noise, but there’s also not as much signal.

As a user, you can spin up your own instance, which gives you complete control… But it also introduces a financial and moderation expense, not to mention inherently leading to fractured communities.

Just look at the Android discussion, it’s occurring on at least:
Android@lemmy.world
Android@lemdro.id
Android@lemmy.ml

etc etc

I don’t think it’s strictly compliant, although they claim to have based it’s syntax on Korn shell, which is the strictest definition of POSIX shells.

You can do pretty much everything in powershell that you can do in something like bash BUT, it will be done slightly differently, so trying to make a script cross compatible is pointless (you might as well just write it natively in powershell etc).

Powershell isn’t inherently bad, unlike bash for instance which just allows piping out text output, Powershell can pass around true .net objects.
But if what you’re looking for is cross OS compatability, you’re pushing shit uphill.

99.9% of the time, I open powershell and just ssh into a “real” linux box.

I have an American based friend who recently visited and I discussed this with him.

His house has an asphalt shingle roof, which is beyond common, it’s standard where he is.
This means the roof supports are light, and won’t tolerate the load of solar panels (direct weight maybe, but not torque from wind).
Beyond that, his states power company have limited the accredited installers to a group that refuse to sell panels, they effectively lease them to you, with an insane payoff period.
If you go independent, you can’t tie into the grid.
He’s subject to a HOA, which means he can’t build anything in his yard without approval.

And so, whilst he’s paid for his dad here in Adelaide to have panels on his roof as a no brainer, he’s given up in the US.

I found this post a few days ago.
I’m now on chapter 78 and accelerating.
Thank you.

Isn’t the foam lining replaceable?

A helmet is like an Ogre (or an onion, but never parfait).

I did a quick search for a diagram to illustrate this, and this one will do:

On the outside, there will be a hard layer, normally made out of Fibreglass, Polycarbonate or Carbon Fiber depending on your budget and tolerance for weight. Beyond simply protecting the next layer, it’s primary purpose is to spread any impact trauma across the next layer.
Under that will be a thick layer of expanded polystyrene foam - this is what saves your head in the event of unplanned rapid deceleration.
Under than will be some comfort padding, normally attached to removable liners, which helps to keep the helmet comfortably in place on your head. This is the layer can be removed for washing/replacement.

The one we are really worried about degrading is the polystyrene one, which isn’t readily replaceable.

The outer shell is normally sculpted somewhat to assist with aerodynamics, which decrease wind buffeting and noise for the rider.
There’s also vents and air channels, visor ratcheting mechanisms and on some helmets provisions for bluetooth communications systems, but that’s a whole other story.

Your helmet is arguably the most important piece of kit you have, and the groupthink is to pay as much as you can afford about every 5 years (whether you ride every day or bi-annually).
