Yeah, just read that at launch it was using hardware fingerprinting which makes it objectively worse than Chrome/FF, which is impressive

Has anyone read anything about the new Microsoft Edge version? I'm hearing good things about performance, but wondering how it stacks up in terms of privacy

Got a lot of "Railgun Errors" about 10 minutes ago. Sadly it looks far less interesting than the name makes it sound. Maybe I've been playing too much Ace Combat recently

It doesn't, it just entices more people to buy homes, which has a knock on effect of making tax cuts raises less appealing to the majority, therefore making people defacto Tories

The only comment with hollow wall anchors - which is obvious in hindsight, but not something I initially cottoned onto - is that they need at least the full depth of the anchor behind the plasterboard for them to seat properly, otherwise they just crush and collapse.

Its a shame they couldn't get something a bit more high-tech than a roll of old camera film for the lenses though

My gut feeling is that the reporting on this is to motivate his base, rather than anything necessarily meaningful

I have one of these, which has the bonus of not needing keys or anything. I haven't had to use it in anger either, and its definitely not secure, but enough to stop someone walking off with it at least

50% of the public support the death penalty

:(

Surely that's because he's using trans community to mean trans men and trans women as as a minority group? Right?

I think it could as easilly be read as a dog-whistle statement othering trans women as distinct from "normal/natural" women. Again, even if it wasn't his intent, its awfully lacking in nuance, which is ironic given the events of a couple of days ago

This bit though “There’s a broader issue here. The Black Lives Matter movement – or moment, if you like – internationally is about reflecting something completely different. It’s reflecting on what happened dreadfully in America just a few weeks ago and showing or acknowledging that as a moment across the world.” just seems to be completely missing the point and pretty patronising. I can't really see what the excuse is

It also seems to completely ignore or, more worryingly deny, that the UK is as institutionally racist as the USA which is not really a strong position to take, even if its slightly less overt here

Not sure if you saw this

Do let me know!

I'm sorely tempted by Ace Combat 7 for ~£15, MGS-esque story nonsense and what looks to be a visually stunning light-arcade flight sim

Now I've got to find someone to make me some custom primary colour frame bags.

Might I suggest the catchy named user71349

uPVC door question. When our kitchen door gets hot it gets stuck near the latch. As far as I can tell it's an expansion issue, rather than anything slipping/the door hinges dropping, and it's only a case of millimetres. Is there anything a diy-er could do to fix this?

Second picture shows the plate that is catching, it still seems flush to the frame so I don't think its moved.

Edit: now that I've posted the pictures, is it as simple as just loosening the screws in pic three and sliding the plate back slightly?

AI, everybody. Its totally fine and unbiased in any way shape or form.

Denis Malimonov is the programmer behind Face Depixelizer, and in an email to Motherboard said the tool is not meant to actually recover a low-resolution image, but rather create a new and imagined one through artificial intelligence.

“There is a lot of information about a real photo in one pixel of a low-quality image, but it cannot be restored,” Malimonov said. “This neural network is only trying to guess how a person should look.”

I planted some sets in late Jan and they seem to be doing okay; will probably lift in another week or two

Oh. I saw the this but hadn't got the context that he was the only black driver. What a fucking disgrace. At least NASCAR seems to be serious about cleaning their house

The whole idea that the 'customer is always right' needs to fucking die. We're doing our best and getting paid pittance for it.

I feel like this thread pretty neatly divides into "those who have worked in retail" and "those who have not"

Was trying to emphasize that they weren't protesters, but have edited anyway

Well yeah, it appears "some black lives" don't matter to BLM!!!!

It is entirely possible to simultaneously hold the beliefs that; it is a shame that a tiny number of police officers have been killed (far more die every year due to RTAs during traffic stops, for e.g. link), and that protests about the overwhelming volume of violence and abuse committed by the police on black and other minorities are important to highlight the systematic abuses that appear to be inherent in countries ideas of policing.

This is not the the gotcha that you seem to think it is

To be fair I think the point of the repeat missions was so that you could get better ranked soldiers which would let you research more stuff - and to let you try out new gear in different environments

Oh, is there? I honestly didn't remember

One of the major differences between the US and UK is that they US Police get all sorts of cast-off gear from the US military, AFAIK the UK Police doesn't get things like APCs and armoured Humvees
