“Seems like in certain instances, communist China can be more capitalist than some western democracies who decided to socialize the losses during the ‘08-‘09 crisis.” - Comment on 1.5+ million PDFs in 25 minutes 4 months ago:
At Zerodha, many million users login and use our financial platforms every day. Over the recent months, on an average day, 1.5+ million users have been executing stock and derivative transactions. On a volatile day, this number could easily double. After a trading session concludes and all the number-crunching, tallying, and “backoffice” operations are completed—with file dumps received from stock exchanges and other market infrastructure institutions—stock brokers e-mail a digitally signed PDF report called the contract note to every user who transacted on that particular day.

people say they removed it with adb. no complaints -they say.

my experience with rss is that its a data format. if its widely supported by publishers then its automatic win.
i guess it allows for tbe diff’ed content updates to be modularized away from reloading the entire page over and over again. deffinitly reduces waste and improves subscriber retention/loyalty.
there is nothing in the standards that includes deduplication (AFAIK). but client devs always include it. - Comment on OpenAI wants to raise 5-7 trillion dollars. Yes, Trillion 4 months ago:

- Comment on Google Chrome pushes ahead with targeted ads based on your browser history 4 months ago:
thats an awesome idea! much thanks for the info!
personal insight preinstall (for ppl reading this):
- it is always better to use fdroid apps whenever possible.
i had tried mcroG once upon a time(many years ago). it didnt work for me.
possible reasons:- project may have been less mature than it is today.
- other. (see below)
installation:
github.com/microg/GmsCore/wiki/Installation “Install GmsCore.apk” , “Install GsfProxy.apk”
“Please review the Prerequisites and Helpful Information before starting installation.”github.com/microg/GmsCore/wiki/Prerequisites
“Your System needs to support signature spoofing, see Signature Spoofing” , “[You need a ROM that supports signature spoofing.]”conclusion:
-need to follow the specific installation instructions.- according to the docs… u need a custom rom(distro ie lineageOS on a supported device.)

- Comment on How do people find good information on the internet these days? 4 months ago:
people are gave some good answers.
it boils down to various large sites.
wikipedia(app) and reddit(app) are my top.
often time i just bang out a search and pinpoint the answer and trash the rest.
[deleted] stackexchanges and ycomb are some other popular sites.
quora used to seem attractive but information is questionable and the whole experience is trash.gemini,bookmarks,chatgpt are some others. also libgen .
