We just got vertical align last month. There's so many things they should be working on but are too busy trying to add more ads or monetization features.
I think the web is just too long in the tooth at this point but there's nothing we can do.
The software to run a server for a game is different from the client software. I have to buy Minecraft to be able to download and use the client, but the server is freely available for anyone to host their own server.
Developers almost always release their server software for free if they offer it. The user is providing a service to the developer by offering another server for the community to use without the developer having to pay for it. There's no reason to charge for it.
You can even password protect your server and put it behind a patreon or other exclusive membership, but it's hard to compete with free servers. You have to offer some kind of special experience.
Everything you're complaining about has been common practice in the PC space for decades.
Red sea urchin. Long life and limb regeneration.
I don't want to turn back into a baby like those who chose the immortal jellyfish.
NodeCore is another great Minetest game. I haven't been able to find a game that matches the feeling of discovery it provides as you learn about the rules of the world.
This isn't really a Windows vs Linux issue as far as I'm aware. It was a bad driver update made by a third party. I don't see why Linux couldn't suffer from the same kind of issue.
We should dunk on Windows for Windows specific flaws. Like how Windows won't let me reinstall a corrupted Windows Store library file because admins can't be trusted to manage Microsoft components on their own machine.
Do you use the Infinitime firmware? I remember weather display being fairly limited back when I tried.
I see a big problem with the opt-out being abusive parents could pocket the money without feeding the child.
Money isn't the only barrier to food security.

They just said that to "drive engagement".
Amtrak is a federally chartered corporation, operated and managed as a for-profit company, but with the U.S. government as its controlling shareholder. The Amtrak Board of Directors are appointed by the president of the United States and confirmed by the U.S. Senate. https://www.amtrak.com/stakeholder-faqs
I'd consider it state capitalism. A private for-profit company owns the means of production/capital but that company is government owned.
That being said though, I don't think its fair to blame Amtrak being a private company as the reason Amtrak has high prices. Amtrak is at the mercy of freight rail as Amtrak only owns 3% of the rails they operate on. They pretty much have to pay whatever the freight companies say and freight is given preference over passenger trains. Amtrak has never made a profit since its creation.
I would guess because Amtrak isn't being subsidized enough. A lot of government money is spent on building and maintaining roads. If the consumer had to pay for that directly in the form of toll roads instead of through taxes then Amtrak would be much more competitive.
Am I the only one who lays a towel out on the floor in front of the shower? This thread has me thinking what I thought was standard practice might not be.
.localhost is already reserved for the loopback, per RFC 2606, but I agree with you in general. A small network shouldn't have to have a $10-15/year fee to be compliant if they don't want to use a domain outside their network.
As other posters have mentioned, .lan .home .corp and such are so widely used that ICANN can't even sell them without causing a technical nightmare.
Yes, you're right, RFC 6762 proposes reserving .local for mDNS. I was not aware of this until you brought it up, hence the dangers of using using TLDs not specifically designated for internal use.
I believe he was wearing pants like someone who has to perform a depantsing skit in a play.
Very few as this ruling would reserve .internal for local DNS only and forbid it at the global level. This is ICANN's solution to people picking random .lan .local .internal for internal uses. You'll be able to safely use .internal and it will never resolve to an address outside your network.
Bed adhesion, nozzle clogging, inconsistent extrusion. It was always some issue and it was difficult to figure out the root cause. I kept buying better parts to try and fix things but at some point I decided to cut my losses. Truthfully I don't know if it was my fault or the printer's.
