Damn, if the car's body is full with sharp edges, what would happen if it hit a pedestrian? Instant decapitation?

They have no incentive to optimize the Red Engine anymore since CD Projekt is moving to Unreal Engine.

I can't remember what I did with vim the first time I used it, but whenever I'm stuck in a cli program and want to go back to the shell, I usually tried ctrl+c first, and if doesn't work, crtl+z.

Kids used to spam hadouken and kamehameha to each other back then. Not sure what kids these days do though.

Do they strip off HTTPS somehow?

Well yes, how else they can provide their services such as page caching, image optimizing, email address obfuscation, js minifications, ddos mitigation, etc unless they can see all data flowing between your server and your visitors in the clear?

Cloudflare is basically an MITM proxy. This blog post might be helpful if you want to know how mitm proxy works in general: https://vinodpattanshetti49.medium.com/how-the-mitm-proxy-works-8a329cc53fb

Remember when google was beloved by everyone back then when they're still have "don't be evil" motto? Cloudflare right now is like google back then: super useful, provides a lot of free services that would be expensive on other providers. But unlike google, if cloudflare go full evil in the future, the impact will be much larger because they're an mitm proxy capable of seeing unencrypted traffics across all websites under their wing. Right now they're serving ~30% of top 10,000 websites and growing.

Blocking adblockers apparently doesn't work well enough so google resorts to various forms of gaslighting (delayed video playback, api randomly returning wrong video, and now skipping video straight to the end).

The Philippines and Vietnam, which are on the front lines of territorial disputes with China, maintained strong support for the US. In 2023, the US and the Philippines updated their mutual defense treaty and expanded defense cooperation agreements. Vietnam upgraded its bilateral relations with the US and entered into a maritime cooperation agreement with the Philippines in January 2024. ​

I think it's wild that Vietnam, a communist country, aligns more to US instead of China.

Generally yes, but keep in mind that apt packages are maintained by canonical, while snap packages could be maintained by canonical, the apps' original developers themselves (e.g. Firefox snap is maintained by Mozilla), or a 3rd party unrelated to canonical or the app's developer (i.e. random dudes packaging apps into snap and submit them). If the snap packages are not maintained by canonical, there is nothing stopping the snap packagers to use a different versioning scheme, though it's unlikely. In general, it's a good idea to check the package entry on snapcraft.io to figure out who packaged them so you can decide if it's trustworthy or not.
