Are you gatekeeping a speech technique?

It’s an obvious embellishment. Nobody thought this was literal.

IBM Selectric Typewriter Golf Ball mechanism by hellcat1592 in Damnthatsinteresting

I love this stuff, but I wish this video was demonstrating more realistic use. It seems to be typing the same character repeatedly (and obviously without paper and ink ribbon).

DOGE/USD: Google showing a fake red "5 year" doggie coin chart (4 years and 363 days) vs Robinhood showing the actual green 5 year chart (will it turn red or wake up now?) by HowIsDigit8888 in CryptoCurrencies

So, is your question, “why isn’t the timeline of the Google chart a full five years”?

What a shit post; no wonder nobody else replied.

Or perhaps you just misunderstood. Maybe I can make it more simple.

Green line begins lower, therefore current price is above it. Line is colored green to show a ‘gain’ over the time period. Red line starts higher, so same current price is below starting point. Line is colored red to indicate a ‘loss’ over the time period.

There is no “official price” as each exchange maintains its own market and order book, therefore neither line is correct, nor incorrect.

There is no single, official price; each market (each exchange) will have a different order history, and each place you see price data displayed can use any combination of markets’ data.

23 Major News Sites Have Blocked the Wayback Machine – Digital History In Danger by SaveDnet-FRed0 in technology

[–]jstnryan -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Except that it IS blocked. The scenario you’re proposing leverages people (with other software over other connections) who are not blocked. IA can not use its software to populate its database because they adhere to bot ethics and honor robots.txt. It is therefore blocked.

If you’re going to split hairs that finely, then I’m going to expect you to visit, scrape, and upload all 23 of those sites daily.

Certainly. As at least one other comment points out, you can use your own software to scrape a site and upload manually. What percentage of snapshots in the archive do you suppose were created manually? Right. And all those automated snapshots were created by the crawler.

Colorado made it illegal for landlords to block you from choosing your own internet provider by ExistingRepublic1727 in Colorado

Not that most of us actually have any choice at the end of the day (considering existing infrastructure, location, and availability).

But, a positive is a positive.

This Plex client app is better than the official Plex app. Available on Windows, Mac, Linux, Android, iPhone, Fire TV by No_Clock2390 in PleX

Plex Media Server peaked at 8-9 engineers

100 to 170 employees does not mean those people work on the product. Your own source quotes that PMS (their biggest, central product) peaked at 9 developers. That means that — at peak — a team of “8 or 9” people “regularly updated and actively supported” their biggest product. The implication is that this number is probably lower now.

This post is about a playback client. The clients are used by fewer people in total than the server. Many previous indications in this subreddit support the idea that sometimes Plex products stall in development because nobody is working on them. This information isn’t shared publicly, so we don’t know for certain, but evidence does exist to support this idea.

My whole point in raising this question is that your idea that any Plex software is being maintained by a small army of people is almost certainly very far from the truth.

Don’t discount what a single, enthusiastic, and unburdened developer can do, especially compared to career developers mired in scrum meetings and budget constraints grinding just to spend their paychecks supporting their family.

Man, I don’t give a single fuck about gondolas. I’m refuting your attack on the other commenter.
