When I've asked others what has improved about GitHub over the past seven years of ownership by Microsoft, people have told me free private repositories are the big one.

Your suggestion is defeated by parents' habit of handing a phone to a child as a digital babysitter. It's how we lost comment sections on animated videos on YouTube in December 2019.

Until 2009, no other device could play iTunes Store purchases, and there weren't a lot of other legal downloadable music stores. This was one factor for the iPod to iPhone progression. Another was that Google required cellular telephony support in all certified Android devices prior to sometime in the 2.3 "Gingerbread" cycle, which made it impossible to make a direct counterpart to the iPod touch.

You can play Apple Music from the Music app on the phone. Unless I missed something, you can't play it from other apps on the phone. And the Music app can't play files written by libimobiledevice, only the music library. You need iTunes to send music to the phone in a form that the Music app can play.

My roommate tried that patch with my help, and iTunes stopped being able to sync purchased music to her iPhone.

I researched online and found these limits:
- iTunes app for Windows uses a driver called Apple Mobile Device Service to sync to an iPhone, which (like other drivers) Wine cannot run
- libimobiledevice for Linux can sync files but cannot update the music library
- The Music app included with iOS can play only music from the music library and cannot import files
- VLC app can play music from files but cannot play rented music from her Apple Music family plan, making it impossible to mix the two in a playlist

What is the safe and effective treatment for gender dysphoria?

I'm starting to think prevention of gender dysphoria has to occur on a social level. It would start with cracking down on parents and K-12 teachers who perpetuate gender stereotypes ("you're not allowed to do this because you're a boy") to children in their care.

Given the right wing's crackdown on abortion on a fetal personhood theory, why shouldn't adoption be promoted?

I own only one Monster cable. And that's because Monster's component cable for Wii was less expensive than Nintendo's.

The first version of Kodi ran on an Xbox console with 64 MB of RAM.

Over time, the Walmart greeter's responsibilities expanded to what is now the "customer host" position. Because some of these new responsibilities were somewhat physical, some associates with disabilities were moved to self checkout host or other front-end positions.

I understood it as a lack of dependency on an ongoing service provided by someone else.

If you read the article carefully, they are talking about lenses THINNER than a hair. I see several of the posts here thinking the width/radius of the lenses is this small, a reasonable mistake given the way this was written. Having a radius that small would severely reduce their light gathering ability, requiring very bright light or very dim images or very long exposure times.

Wine runs in user space. I don't see how Wine could ever run drivers, such as peripheral drivers required by things like the iPhone sync functionality of iTunes or kernel-level anti-cheat required by major online games supporting pickup matches with strangers.

People who use software that requires Windows are "forced" to buy Windows along with a new PC. An OEM Windows 10 license that came with a PC is locked to that PC. A new PC purchased to replace a PC that cannot be upgraded to Windows 11 will come with a new Windows license.

Start with stage0 (whose binary seed is about 1 KiB) and GNU Mes. Use mescc to build tinycc, then GCC 2.95, then GCC 4.7, then fairly modern GCC, and then use mrustc to build some version of Rust. The time-consuming part is that each version of the Rust toolchain uses fairly new features in the Rust language, so yes, you'll probably have to build the world a couple dozen times starting with the most recent version supported by mrustc.

If I had to guess, we let this happen by the USA electing George W. Bush in 2000. His incoming Attorney General settled United States v. Microsoft Corp., 253 F.3d 34 (D.C. Cir. 2001), with a wrist slap instead of a Windows division breakup.
