You could set up your own cloud, yes, but you could also use only ‘client’ devices, without ever having an off-site computer in the network.

If you want to edit macros in Excel, you’ll see a Vista window. Vista! In 2024!
Gun! Unix? Not!
Are the version numbers going to be mm or caliber?
GNU isn’t punchy though; as soon as any punchy word get’s associated with them, people will use that word instead, and we’ll just get GNU/Thermite or GNU/Abson or something.
Piracy has always been a distribution issue. There are definitely greedy lazy people who will always want more for less, but the organized effort required for piracy only happens when fair access is impossible.
Boost also has yet to implement spoiler tags.
Wait until you need nested commas, those lists won’t delineate themselves!
I like hiding votes until you’ve voted. Allowing users, communities, or instances to change how posts/comments are sorted might help too.
I think those pants are underfitting…
True, a fully transparent system would require every voter to understand the machine and how the systems prevent tampering.
At the same time, I don’t think even a majority of voters know how the voting process works in the U.S. and Canada today, simply trusting that such a process exists. I’d argue that many of the processes aren’t even fair, with gerrymandering and spoiler effects being common. Large numbers of people even believe that mail-in votes are simply a tool for fraud.
So yes, ideally everyone would fully understand every step of every system of the voting process, but a working system is possible without that. If a more opaque system could increase verifiability and/or allow faster easier voting, it might be worth it. Of course currently existing voting machines do neither, and massively increase opacity at every level, so they’re quite terrible, but I don’t think they need to be perfect to be useful.
Boost is fantastic for keeping my place. I just don’t have to worry about switching to the web to look something up, or even just to do some math. Even if the app gets killed in the background, you’ll be returned to where you were. It’s great, I wish every app could have such a good memory.
That’s just human s though. The only way to fix that is force everyone and everything onto All.
Theoretically, a voting machine could be open source, tracable, verifiable, and well regulated.
In practice, all your currently existing industries can only make black boxes that even the makers can’t guarantee the workings of.
Github, but it’s afraid of commitment, it just wants to spoon.
You can’t find a single example from r/Overwatch? You’re not looking very hard then:
“Jump scare at the end of POG” “Supports almost never get POG, now we don’t even get a card at the end of the match.” “First POG is match POG” “We want to talk after the PoG” “This guy’s whole team left after the first round so we gave him POG…” “Behind every Rein Pog is a support going through a rollercoaster of emotions” “I remember when PoG was tweaked for assist points and every pog was Mercy rezzing two people and dying.” “My friends and I have always called it POG. Not sure why but its what we do. I guess thats where it came from”
In fact, the large majority of the use of “pog” refers to Play Of Game and not hype. I did notice that this usage is more common in the last 4 years, while pogchamp is mostly used 4-7 years ago. The earliest upvoted usage of POG I can find there is “Taking Trobjorn and Bastion POG into a new dimension.” from 8 years ago though, so it was used contemporaneously with PogChamp.
POTG is definitely much more popular there, but saying the POG usage doesn’t exists is just wrong.
Also, news organizations have a horrendous record with slang, that’s terrible evidence. Especially when your source is a 404.
Besides, I can get spurious souces too (and they work!):
“POG” an overused term on twitch that means “Play of Game” Woah, that was pog. by SSR Rules September 23, 2020
Hmm, so I learned of pog in 2016 when my friends were into Overwatch, and pog was definitely used as an acronym from Play Of the Game (POTG is very clunky to say).
However, the PogChamp usage is from 2011, so the play of the game usage is either coincidental or an intentional decision on the part of Blizzard/Activision.
Most importantly, the POG in PogChamp does actually refer to the beverage disks. Weirdly enough, they were just a prop in an awkwardly acted ad for a gaming peripheral by a professional Street Fighter player/streamer. The actual usage of PogChamp probably started on 4Chan before appearing on Twitch, after which it spread.
Is it really pogs that started this and not “Play Of the Game”?
I agree that the vast majority of ads are manipulative, but are there not legitimate uses in notification? Like posters annoucing an event, requests for scientific trials, or even lost posters.
Sadly, google cats aren’t part of the cat distribution system.
