Linus Torvalds affirms expulsion of Russian maintainers
  • You have to be arguing in bad faith if you’re trying to say “citizens of nation shouldn’t be responsible for their nation”

    The open source benefit is not that they can directly impact it, it’s that their government can’t

  • Riot Games lays off more employees but says the League of Legends team will be 'even larger' in the future
  • Karthus no longer being a skeleton is a better example

    But there’s so many worse things

    0-elo glitch “we can’t reset people’s ranks because our elo system is so advanced that it can’t be manually changed” so pros had to waste a month getting out of it

    Which led into “there’s no way Marc Merril was buying account boosts, we can just go into the system and change it”

    Or the “we have to pay out every female employee we’ve ever had in our sexual assault cases” though it wasn’t even a secret at the time that female employees had to put out to get promoted or hired if it wasn’t a feeder position

  • Doug Ford: "Remove and replace existing bike lanes on primary roads" #onpoli
  • "It isn't enough to keep an eye on future bike lanes," Ford told the paying audience. "We need to and will remove and replace existing bike lanes on primary roads that are bringing traffic in our cities to a standstill."

    Why do some cbc videos not have CC?

    For instance this video https://www.cbc.ca/player/play/video/1.7170227

    Has closed captions I can put on but this video doesn’t

    https://www.cbc.ca/player/play/video/1.7064579

    How does that work with accessibility laws? I wish there was just a scribed button I could press to read the whole video instead of having to pause constantly

    What is the easiest subtitle approach?

    The easiest I found was going to each episode and editing the subtitles then uploading the file (even though they are in the same directory)

    I’m assuming if I named better then it wouldn’t be an issue since the subtitles are named “e1, e2, etc”

    Why does YouTube keep recommending anti-Korea/Japan stories and pro-China stories from the South China Morning Post

    I never click on them and I don’t consume any other content related to those countries but every so often I’ll see an anti (those countries) headline in my feed and then the next few days will have pro occupied China stories

    It feels like targeted propaganda since I never see good stories about the other countries and it makes me wonder why YouTube hasn’t been broken up if they are too big to monitor that
