Perl is the only language that looks just as incomprehensible before and after a rot13 transformation.
Python on the other hand is the only language that will cause your application to stop working because you mixed up tabs and spaces, even though it looks perfectly fine on your scr.
And lisp is hard to say if you have one.

In what way is this “event” different from sticking your head in n a public toilet and flushing for the purpose of brushing your teeth?
I’d expect that the person to ask would be the building manager.
For me, on Apple TV, it became unusable without a subscription.
Next step: Apple removes hardware from box and ships aspiration only.

It absolutely is.
It’s possibly also how they’ll get broken up by the DoJ.
I think that every single provider tracks your activity and the vast majority of them use it to optimise their service income from you, either by giving you better engagement, ie. making you use the service more - endless searching for content for example, or by selling the captured tracking data to the highest bidder.
I experienced this crazy onslaught of advertising to the point of reducing how much I watched YouTube. I was pretty upset and not at all inclined to pay, especially since YouTube was even putting ads on my own videos without me seeing a single cent, because my channel is too small.
Then my partner bought me a few months of a Premium Subscription as a Christmas gift.
It was pointed out to me that I watched more YouTube than any other streaming service which I was paying for.
Combined with background music on mobile, it’s changed my life.
I’m still unimpressed with the business model, but the alternative is so far worse.
Find me a self publishing video platform with the reach of YouTube that doesn’t require self hosting and I’ll happily move my content there.
You could use a cron job to grep through the file and reformat the output into a webpage, markdown, or plain-text file.
Reddit support to the rescue…

Bruce Perens is currently working on a new licensing model called Post Open requiring that business with sufficient revenue to pay up.
In my opinion it’s criminal just how often this happens. Big business making obscene profit off the back of volunteer work like yours and many others across the OSS community.

If wishing made it so.
On Android every single browser links the system font size to the web font size. This does not guarantee that the font is readable on web, just that when you make the system font bigger, the web font size (mostly) increases.
The system font size is used everywhere, on every UI element in every app, not only the web, on the home screen, the keyboard, etc. etc.
I don’t want a bigger system font, because it reduces what’s visible on the screen and fundamentally it doesn’t actually fix the web.
The Google Message app is currently the only one that allows you to pinch zoom and increase/decrease the font size.
Finally, on desktop you can use Ctrl +/- to change the font size. That’s what I want mobile pinch zoom to use.
As for zooming in on an image, on desktop, the Ctrl +/- also (depending on the stylesheet) will change the image size. If you need more, you can open the image in a new tab and use Ctrl +/- to zoom. All of this could work exactly the same as on a mobile phone with pinch zoom.
As I said, if wishing made it so.
Does this mean that they also fixed this on mobile, so pinch zoom changes the font size, rather than the whole page that forces you to scroll in two directions to read larger text?
All I’ll say is that I’m glad that I’m neither your child, nor a member of your software development team…
So, a profitable half and the one that will go bankrupt?
It is again beginning to feel rather dysfunctional…
