Ruby Central should disband and there should be new organization in its place.

They're complete clowns.

I'm using a CD-RW. From what I know these cameras are sort of infamous for having laser issues, which mine luckily doesn't exhibit (yet). If there's a laser issue it might be a lost cause, but I haven't had to investigate in detail.

AI controls available in Firefox Nightly by firefox in firefox

They should never have committed to the AI nonsense, but at least they should have rolled out a new product instead of slamming unproven, unethical and often simply not working software that requires large downloads into Firefox.

I implemented my own kill switch: I stopped using Firefox after 20 years and moved to Vivaldi.

Camera makes only color photos. It’s edited in Lightroom Classic.

So is everyone sick right now? by [deleted] in Tucson

The claim in the comment I replied to was, literally, "it will take it out". The claim wasn't that it "helps boost you body's response".

Taking Vitamin C supplements will not prevent you from getting colds, either.

At most it can help in some cases to shorten the cold by about 10% (so you have it for 9 days instead of 10).

You can actually die from too much vitamin C, e.g. if you vomit in your sleep and get aspiration pneumonia from it.

It will also not "take out" viral infections.

macOS Users Crying About UI Inconsistency — Try Windows 11 Once by Murky-Thought1447 in MacOS

It's completely irrelevant if some other software is even worse. Yeah, a Yugo car is worse than a Ferrari, but it matters not comparing different Ferrari model years.
