Firefox on Android supports it without any issue. That would cover a significant enough segment of the population that it might encourage actual change in the industry if people started moving to that platform.
Firefox on Android has approximately 0.5% market share on mobile, less than Opera. I really doubt it's enough to spark any sort of industry-wide change.
I'm not saying that Firefox on Android has significant market share; rather that Android has significant market share, and those users could be served by switching to Firefox solely for the purpose of using an adblocker.
If all Android users did this, something would change.
The point is it’s easy. It’s near frictionless. Unlike a lot of pie in the sky statements I see here like how “easy” it is to install and run Linux (it isn’t), Firefox adoption is truly trivial for any smartphone user and presents a stronger baseline than chrome does. People here often get critical of Firefox/Mozilla, and I totally get it, but compared to Google Chrome it doesn’t, well, compare.
Firefox runs great 99.99% of the time. It’s easy to add extensions. So we should be pushing people to adopt it.
If you're going to sell the car with the modified firmware, fine.
But at least in my jurisdiction, I can mechanically modify the car in any way I please, as long as it still has seat belts, brake lights, and bumpers of a certain height. It doesn't even still require a steering wheel; that's not specified in the law as far as I've been able to find. (Now, if I removed the muffler and made it louder than proscribed by law, I could be cited for a noise violation, but only at such a time as I womped on the gas and actually made the noise. The car itself being _capable_ of the noise is not, inherently, illegal.)
This blew my coworkers' mind once as I unplugged the passenger-side airbag while mounting a bunch of new stuff there. Apparently in some places, it requires paperwork and certifications just to unplug a connector? Weird.
I have a pair of PAR38 LED bulbs from Cree Lighting (2100 lumens) that are rated for 25,000 hours. They're in a flood-light mounted under the eaves of my house.
I never got around to putting them on a dusk-to-dawn timer, so they've been burning 24/7 since I purchased them at the end of 2020 (except for the occasional power outage, of course). I paid $20/each for them.
Sample size of 1 (technically 2), but there are definitely products on the market that meet your criteria.
The lights are indeed outdoor, and cover most of my backyard. It's a neighborhood within a major metropolitan area, but the light doesn't bleed beyond my property lines.
As for the "why", the answer is security. If someone attempts to hide in my yard, they'll find it quite difficult to remain unseen.
Most of my neighbors have floodlights of their own (though mine are easily the brightest), and I've gotten no complaints in the years I've had them. If any of my neighbors voiced concerns about them, I would try to work with them to find a solution. I have to live next to them, so it only makes sense to stay on good terms.
My neighbour has a motion activated flood light. It's annoying. Not annoying enough to risk a feud by telling them though. It also completely ruins any natural habitat for nocturnal animals.
The whole concept of permanently lighting your garden is crazy! Where do you live that you're so worried about people hiding in your yard? Could you not solve that with cameras and an infra-red floodlight?
Even infrared is weird to me. Insects and other creatures living in the garden have issues with it, while they are important for a healthy environment ...
If we consider that roughly 73.6% of Americans are overweight[0], perhaps there would be some benefit if substantially more people started taking GLP-1 medications.
i think we'll soon see some very safe OTC version of GLP-1 just added to the food and drinks just like salt and sugar are added. That will allow for example Coke drinkers to drink it back again a lot.
That would be a good addition to food from the public health view. From the food producers point of view i think they would find some version which doesn't have effect of decreasing consumption, yet would prevent the gross obesity result from increased consumption, a "diet" like versions without it actually being a diet ones.
It's 40% of the _starter dose_ (2.5 mg), which is what patients begin taking to get their bodies accustomed to the drug. The "maintenance dose" that patients build up to can be many times higher (10-15 mg).
40% of the starter dose (40% of 2.5mg = 1mg) would be between 6-10% of the "maintenance dose" (betweeen 10-15mg).
Not all supporters of a given political party agree on everything. They may simply align with the party on the topics that are most important to them, even if they disagree with other topics that are lower on their priority list.
It is disingenuous to suggest that any group of people unilaterally agree on a diverse collection of topics.
Yeah, you could get an unlisted number but you were charged for it and almost no one did because it was also how people you wanted to get in touch with you found you a lot of the time. Not that data breaches aren't bad but a lot of the breached info has been pretty routinely available for a very long time. (And, as you say, cell phone numbers are probably less routinely available than landlines were.)
I don't go out of my way to publish my cell or address but a lot of people have them.
My old man was a doctor and the local phone company at the time (GTE) automatically made our home number unlisted. Presumably this was done for other “critical” professions who might receive many home calls that should be directed at their place of work.
Being unlisted was sometimes devastating to a 1980s kid’s social life… I missed out on multiple birthday parties and other invitations. My sisters probably lost out on some dating opportunities.
I think what they're saying is that someone could pretend to be a researcher and ask for passwords to confirm that they match what was found in some fictional breached data.
If I'm reading it right the part about them confirming that the records contained the password implies that they were given the relevant record and then they confirmed it was accurate, not that they were just asked "hey what is your password"
What would be the benefit of using SFP+ on mainstream consumer motherboards? It would further increase the effective price to consumers as they'd have to purchase a separate transceiver, which are bulkier and might overly crowd an already compact I/O shield layout.
