I mean if you ask for the lines that start with "the" and expect lines that start with "The", maybe you should say it in the instructions.

After the 3rd time I had to peek at "learn" to understand what was even asked, I gave up. This is more annoying than fun.

What are the advantages of Forgejo over Gitea?

Why did your father enable installing APK packages from third party sources? That's a setting buried deep inside the developer settings, which themselves have to be activated with a very arcane manipulation

I believe this only works this way on some android forks, iirc you are talking about Samsung. Stock android would show a warning "do you want to install apk from this app?" and lead you to a settings page that enables apk installs from this particular app. No need to separately enable the ability to install apks in general.

I always thought this is a very weird flow, it adds hoops yet accomplishes nothing because the hoops are all trivial and the same for every app.

This is also how it works on my Samsung Galaxy S21. There's no need to enable developer settings.

I have definitely seen this "you need to go deep in the settings to enable 3rd party installs at all" flow before, but I don't remember which device it was. (Just saying that the commenter above is not just inventing something, I was surprised when I saw it as well)

There definitely is such setting, but I have no idea when it was introduced. S21 is an old phone (not to disparage it in any way).

    Your Galaxy phone or tablet is configured by default to prevent the installation of apps from sources other than the Play Store and Galaxy Store.

Hah, yes, this is also how S21 works. But to still refute the OP's point: (1) it is in stock settings, you do not need to enable the developer settings menu via any arcane method. (2) When you tap on an APK in e.g. Google Drive or WhatsApp, Android "helpfully" forwards you straight to this settings page, allowing you to immediately toggle the "Install unknown apps" and installation will begin (there may be another "do you want to install this app" confirmation).

The point being that there is not a whole lot of friction in this flow -- one or two taps -- likely making it easy for scammers to coach victims to perform.

I agree that activating the developer settings menu is substantially more friction, and may arouse more suspicion in a victim, but [on many/most devices] is not currently required. I guess the original article is alluding to putting this kind of friction in place.

Did he look at the camera after replying?

There's also https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Jackson_(writer) , who was one of the most famous experts on beer and whisky.

I seem to recall when he was on TV he leaned into the joke ("not that Michael Jackson"). Of course that was long before the days random people could send abuse on Twitter.

Physical contact with Gramineae

English is not my native language, and I fail to understand what you mean. What's wrong, or even special, about the sentence you're quoting?

It's a tell, a common language quirk of LLMs especially ChatGPT.

- a slow-loading app isn’t just an annoyance. It’s a liability.

- The real performance story isn’t splitting hairs over 3ms differences, it’s the massive gap between next-gen and React/Angular

- The difference [...] isn’t academic. It’s the difference between an app that feels professional and one that makes our users look bad in front of clients.

- This isn’t a todo list with hardcoded arrays. It’s a real app with database persistence.

- This isn’t just an inconvenience. It’s technofeudalism.

- “We only know React” isn’t a technical constraint, it’s a learning investment decision.

- The real difficulty isn’t learning curve, it’s creating a engineering culture.

- This isn’t some toy todo list. It’s a solid mid-complexity app with real database persistence using SQLite.

- The App Store isn’t a marketplace, it’s a fiefdom.

That sentence structure is something that LLMs seem to have converged on, so the comment you're replying to thinks this article is written by an LLM.

4) scalpers only existed for sports and music venues

The existence of scalpers rather shows that the producer set the price of the product (in this case GPU) too low [!] for the number of instances of the product that are produced.

Because the price is too low, more people want to buy a graphics card than the number of graphics cards that can be produced, so even people who would love to pay more can't get one.

Scalpers solve this mismatch by balancing the market: now people who really want to get a graphics card (with a given specification) and are willing to pay more can get one.

So, if you have a hate for scalpers, complain that the graphics card producer did not increase its prices. :-)

It's appealing to me. It's time we started mocking mediocrity again. Because it's absolutely everywhere and we don't seem to care anymore.

As others have stated, it completely defeats the performance purpose, if you need to lookup using another ID.
