IP cameras more likely. USB Webcams don't talk over IP.

This reads like it's supposed to chill the readers, not tell them who is starting to shut up and take it.

Anyone else notice that? Or am I hallucinating

Great, our judges are reduced to being reasonable parents gently putting the picture frame back that the angry toddler threw his toy at and knocked down.

No I agree, I thought it was Russia that would say Zelensky did a false flag

Both supporters and opponents.

The supporters want violence. Us opponents see that he is pushing for it.

According to my ex, resting bitchface is a common symptom of ASD. Or at least that's what she blames her own resting bitchface on.

This doesn't look quite like resting bitchface. This looks like disgust. But what she's disgusted over probably has nothing to do with whatever we speculate she's actually thinking.

I mean you get to trade one authoritarian government for another, just the other is super densly populated, polluted to all hell, and speaks a language you probably don't know. I mean, I guess China has their similarities to Silicon Valley, NYC, Chicago, etc.

While I can see that being used, I don't think this was intentional or big enough.

I had assumed the author didn't limit his statements to web browsers. If it's an application on a user's box, they should be using the language the OS provides.

In the case of less complex hardware, IoT or embedded devices with localization support, you would likely have another strategy if it doesn't have a setup process. For something without internet or GPS, you can't do this obviously. For something without a GUI, it's unlikely to have localization support without direct design consideration for it's destination.

It would be a useful way to predict it possibly, but presumably the author meant if you have support for localization, you also provide an obvious and easy means of changing the language.

More importantly, you should be using the language an existing user has already used in the past.

Edit: come to think of it, this is less a programmer problem, and more of a UX problem. Obviously as programmers we need to take UX into consideration, but in all my products I've worked on, UX is specified already by a UX designer.

Man I don't understand what I read but everything in that makes no sense.

How do you crush a commercial spark plug to get something you can throw
