Depends on how much of the stock is actually available to purchase. If the owners of the company keep 51% (or 50% + 1 share? Whatever it is), then no.

They do have a "Privacy Preserving Ad Measurement" setting that's enabled by default. Just like Firefox, you can opt out of it, but it is opt-out - so same deal as with Firefox. Apple may be a lot better than others,…
Our Browser options are currently all tied to one of the big AdTech companies: * Safari is owned by Apple * Edge is owned by Microsoft * Chrome is owned by Google * Firefox is partnered with Facebook/Meta I guess…

Does anyone have a recommendation for an Open Source 2FA OTP app? That's the only thing I use Authy for, to scan the QR Codes into the App and generate the 2FA tokens, but in a way that allows me to migrate to another…
It's like Tim Berners-Lee being referred to as "Web Developer" :) https://imgur.com/kX5oBk6
Big Endian is also called Network Order because some networking protocols use it. And of course, UTF-16 BE is a thing. There is a non-trivial chance that you will have to deal with BE data regardless if your machine is…
ESPN's 30-for-30 episode "Broke" is a great watch. It does seem though that newer generation athletes are a bit better educated in that matter since they're better connected online, but that might just be anecdotal.
I'm kinda curious if CRT technology advanced to the point where a TV like that would've been possible at a better weight and price tag? I assume that CRT technology development stopped decades ago, but could we have…
Third Places really took a hit in the pandemic :( But yes, as someone who re-discovered them last year, I absolutely agree.
SSI? I hope that their first product is called Gold Box.
With a 4K display and HDR, we can actually do really decent CRT emulation. It seems a bit ridiculous to need 4K/HDR to emulate 40 year old display tech, but you need the resolution to do the aperture grille in a way…
Yeah, I have one, and the keyboard being non-functional is a real bummer. It's a neat mini console (especially once you add some additional games), but I wish they would make a version with a working keyboard, like they…
What's fascinating is that some of those house rules seemed to have come up independently in places all around the world. For example, the stupid free parking jackpot. (I assume that Hasbro added it to the manual as a…
So, with 1.1.1.1 and 8.8.8.8 being useless then, what DNS Server is recommended going forward?
> I am not sure what other options there are. Unironically, Cloud gaming. Stadia had a terrible business model, but the tech worked. Microsoft's XCloud together with GamePass could be a winning ticket for that. (I think…
One of the reasons I never use Browser extensions either. If it doesn't ship with the browser, it cannot be trusted. NO exceptions.
Will be interesting to see if AMD's Strix Point can perform. Basically, radically beef up the graphics unit in an APU. (Doesn't make it upgradable of course, but could offer a better choice for people that want a gaming…
(Oh, just realized that "better efficiency" could mean that RDNA 3 can do the office work that RDNA 2 does but with lower power usage. That could be true, though I wonder if that would really be significant savings in…
Oh, there's plenty of good uses for it, but I was specifically wondering why the previous poster cared for it being RDNA 2 instead of RDNA 3 since I don't think it makes a difference outside of gaming, and it's a pretty…
Yeah, I have several GT 710's which also came in a PCIe x1 variant so I could keep the x16 slot free for something better. Glad that's no longer needed - the built-in GPU is a legit good thing.
Good point. Makes me wonder if they'd consider a Threadripper version that uses that chipset, since the Non-Pro Threadripper have been in a weird spot ever since Ryzen went up to 16 cores. An AM5 Threadripper might not…
If you follow people of certain hobbies - for example, retro computing - then it's a great way to discover others sharing the same interest. You can check their timeline to see if that's someone you want to follow or…
That makes sense, I do remember some Commodore 64 games that even a Nibbler couldn't properly duplicate, and how some people modified their 1541 drives to have a different timing to work with some of that stuff.
