  • It prevents any website being able to run intercepts on pasting. This is good when they’re using it to just prevent you from doing it for no real reason but there are many situations where you don’t want a user to be able to arbitrarily just drop text into a text field.

    The big one is 2fa. A lot of the time you might need to enter a five digit code and each number may need to be entered into a particular box if you just click in the first box and press paste after copying the code from an email then it’ll paste the entire contents into that one box. You don’t want that you want some code to automatically paste each letter into each subsequent box, that requires you intercept the original paste command.




  • It’s wrong anyway because the temperatures are high for the current time of year. Even the winter temps.

    So with the northern hemisphere that means that they are higher than they’ve ever been before in the Southern hemisphere it just means they’re higher the winter then they’ve ever been before but they’re still high.

    So it’s a confusing and non relevant distinction.









  • Good god you’ve missed the point haven’t you?

    If you want shit with removable batteries, cool, go out and make your demands heard. But why should your demands be pushed onto everyone else

    Because companies are not providing products with removable batteries so the consumers refusing to buy products with non-removable batteries doesn’t work because there’s no alternative product to purchase. Manufacturers know they have consumers in monopoly so they have no reason to change.

    What about the consumer that doesn’t give a fuck about usb-c or removable batteries?

    The USB c-thing is not just about user friendliness it’s also about the environment. Constantly having to throw old charges away because their incompatible with new products produces an enormous amount of e-waste, everyone using the same charger reduces it, which is only a good thing. Also the Apple charger which is what I’m assuming you’re going on about is actually less safe than the usb-c standard. I think we can all agree that manufacturers should use safer options when they become available.

    Why should they be made to buy products designed around standards that aren’t important to them?

    If a product has a feature you don’t care about, why do you care, just don’t use it and you’re fine.
