Someone could make a lot of money stealing a baby

You're mom didn't tell you the truth, plain and simple. Whether she knows the truth, that's another story. You can't re-absorb a whole baby, with bones and all that.

Maybe BYND stock can finally leave the gutter

Child, this is Tennis were talking about. It's a rich people game. There's no time to worry about trivialities like protection of the environment.

And it's bullshit, because so what if the ball is a bit less bouncy? It's less bouncy to your opponent too.

With Microsoft destroying it's reputation for very long device support, I can only imagine they've also destroyed all trust in them from the embedded devices and outdoors hardware industry. These machines don't get a lot of updates and it would suck to have to throw them away because software support ended.

So trees have evolved truck-sensing organs in the span of mere decades? Unbelievable!

I didn't know this until recently, but tennis balls wear out quite fast. Not structurally, not the felt, but the air inside escapes with the extreme pressure they endure. And soon they don't bounce so well.

If only sports balls had a way to refill the air...

That's exactly my first thought. Whenever I see upcycled things that will just break down into microplastics in nature, I wince.

 
 
 

I'm not one to usually diss new UI changes, but this one grinds my gears.

Firefox for Android has released a new menu design. It organizes everything a little differently, which is alright it looks fresh. But 2 things are really annoying and a continuous design trend in Firefox.

  • The option to open page in external app has been tucked away in a sub menu. I used this often and it was in the top level menu before. Companies just love hiding things in menus for no reason.
  • the option to open a private tab as a normal tab is GONE. This is how I use Firefox: someone sends me a link, I click on it and it opens in a private tab by default. If I need to sign in to see it (e.g. private Instagram links) then I open it in a normal tab. This option is now simply gone.

So yeah that's my rant. I'll see if I open a bug requesting the 2nd issue back.

 
 

I personally been using it for almost 5 years. I heard about it from a colleague a few years before that but I forgot about it, and then an online ad reminded me to check them out again.
