@Ramborambowski @Benjamin_Aster @awesomekling @ladybirdbrowser Now I wonder if there are any websites that will break if appName != Netscape, and is instead set to its actual name. Like "Ladybird".

:)

[Dan Jacobs @_danjac_]

@Ramborambowski @Benjamin_Aster @awesomekling @ladybirdbrowser That's a fascinating/mad requirement. Then again, MDN claims it's deprecated: https://t.co/eh1BCNgaIu

...along with other mad properties, like appName (always "Netscape"!!)

@Benjamin_Aster @Ramborambowski @awesomekling @ladybirdbrowser That document is descriptive, not prescriptive.

The linked paragraph just says that in the examples that follow, all begin with “Mozilla/5.0”.

It doesn’t say that user agents must or should begin this way.

(Though for compatibility, I see why they would!)

[Dan Jacobs @_danjac_]

@Ramborambowski @Benjamin_Aster @awesomekling @ladybirdbrowser Assuming this is the spec: RFC 9110: https://t.co/uRX99VBMOB

Mozilla/5.0 isn't mentioned, nor even used as an example.

Is there another spec we should be consulting?

@Tantacrul @Meta I got that notification and it shows the same message. But clicking the “right to object” link just takes me to this error message.

So I’m not in a supported country, apparently.

Does that mean they’ll be using my data with no opt out, or not using it at all?

[Dan Jacobs @_danjac_]

@JimmyOnInOne @kylecoolky @MKBHD Because those hubs use a thing called DisplayLink. They run software which causes the system to encode a compressed video stream of a monitor's video and send it over USB-C. The hub then decodes it and outputs it. Performance is generally poor and CPU overhead is very high.

@FrameworkPuter Show us more photos of all the different colours and configuration options. It’s great to see all these “in the flesh”!

[Dan Jacobs @_danjac_]

@FrameworkPuter Both.

The new French Standard AZERTY layout is *so* much better than the travesty that is the legacy AZERTY layout.

Imagine being the first laptop manufacturer to officially support it. You'd be famous in France.

Here's the Windows implementation:

@Charles_Benoit CCS1 is unique to North America. Don’t blame us Europeans for it!

Europe uses Combo 2 ports on cars — still bigger than the Tesla connector, but smaller and better designed than CCS1.

China uses GB/T. Japan has CHAdeMO. Etc…

@TheTrueScotsman @LizziCollinge I don’t have a subscription to Libération so I don’t have a way to read the whole article I’m afraid.

Little Update https://t.co/Ipl8AXb1Qw

@analogue My Pocket, received in November, has a faulty R shoulder button. Nothing happens when the button is pressed. I’ve been emailing you for months and still no reply. How can I get this repaired?

[Dan Jacobs @_danjac_]

I’m over here now. Bye bye, Twitter!

@BrettGurewitz @elonmusk @kanyewest Don’t give him any ideas!!

[Dan Jacobs @_danjac_]

@CptHibou @Foone Indeed but this is dependent on a software defined keyboard layout in the OS.

There is no keyboard layout that puts € on NumLock, so this keyboard must have a way of generating a non-standard scan code for that key in some circumstance.

Maybe that is what the “wand” is for.

@mehedih_ I can't quite match that upload speed. I'm still pretty happy though. :)

Il y a un appli mentionné sur un autre autocollant sur la borne – Mobilypass. J'ai telechargé l'appli, et j'ai crée un compte. Je ne sais toujours pas comment démarrer la charge.

[Dan Jacobs @_danjac_]

@mobilygreen Comment utiliser vos bornes ? J'ai essayé recharger à votre borne à Carrefour market Ouistreham. La borne a rejeté mes six cartes de recharge (Chargemap, Shell Recharge, Maingau, et autres) et ma carte bancaire. Il n'y a pas d'instructions sur la borne.

[Dan Jacobs @_danjac_]

@mobilygreen Il y a un QR Code. C'est juste un lien vers https://t.co/l1PBRVwGZS, qui vend les bornes pour pour les maisons et les entreprise. C'est inutile…
