Ubuntu is the new Comic Sans, right

Can someone explain how something as generic as a keyboard can be a subject to patents?

One of the few positives of today’s designs is the better screen-to-body ratios that we have. This would mean that we can have a 5" screen in the same physical body size that previously used to house a 4 point something inch screen. But for some reason the latest flagship small phones are from a few years ago - I guess sales figures show they’re not sought after.

What’s next? Talking about healthcare?

Then why list them?

Why do 98, 99 and 100 have no dots?

I’m a fan of physical media and at the same time I don’t believe in its supremacy; I don’t think it’s more practical than digital files for example.

I still like it because 1) it can be a way to directly support artists that I like and 2) it’s a way to own content instead of renting it.

Ads aside, what’s been infuriating me lately is that YouTube seems to have degraded the quality of existing videos and locked the previously available quality behind the “1080p Enhanced Bitrate”; I have no way of confirming this since I obviously don’t have Premium, but I’m fairly sure that the regular 1080p of old videos that I rewatch from time to time (uploaded 2-3 years ago or earlier) is now worse than it was. If it was about new uploads with something previously unavailable, it would’ve been somewhat understandable. Something also tells me that the paid tier is also going to get ads eventually.

All is fine, but I’m still curious: how many do you have?
