You can change the screen resolution and make the notch go away (along with all of the other pixels to the left and right of the notch).


For the love of God, or cake, or whatever - PLEASE remove the "smooth scrolling" code from your site. It completely fucks up all pre-existing expectations on how a mouse wheel or trackpad is to operate.


Will do in the next update. It has been problematic for a long time.

Thank you for your feedback!


I don't think you have to subscribe to Amazon Prime in order to rent movies. Same thing with Apple TV (formerly the iTunes store). For whatever reason though this distinction is not well made.


I LOOKed at the MOVIE, and so did my friend DOT, and we came TO the same conclusion that it's not working as specified.


you had trouble and your friend had trouble 2?


Minimize seeding on torrents. I've still gotten a few strikes from various ISPs though. Some ISPs seem to care more than others, in my experience.


In practice, what do these strikes mean? Was it some fine? Or rather just a warning?


The RAM got corrupted?


Don't forget prepaid Visa/MasterCard too. (Maybe grandma still sends a $20 every birthday.)


> code

I quite like the parts of the code that prevent random electric shocks, and the parts that keep the roof from caving in, etc. (I assume you meant building codes)

The forthcoming mass deportation will definitely fuck shit up though. UK is having a similar issue due to Brexit. I guess Eastern Europeans are to the UK, as Mexicans/etc. are to the US?


I didn't want to get into a huge aside so I just left it there but imo the NEC et al are absolutely great. In a lot of ways current building standards actually make things easier and cheaper, they remove ambiguity and offer a set of best practices that are time tested to reduce labor and errors.

The issue is how local municipalities enforce it along with zoning to make building massively more bureaucratic. Reaching the right people is impossible, everyone has their own agenda and interpretation, and city councils across the country add arbitrary stipulations entirely to reduce construction so line goes up.

Silk Road/etc.?


don't pretend that's the same thing

PowerPC


I love PowerPC but I still don't believe CPU architecture alone is a motivating factor for why any person would choose to use a particular computer over any other. If that were true then Stebe Jovs never would have told me about The Megahertz Myth, now welcome Phil S[c]hiller to the stage to run the PentiumⅡ machine for this specially-scripted Photoshop benchmark, et cetera.
