In a completely alternate dimension, a quarter of the capital being invested in AI literally just goes towards making sure everyone has quality food and water.
you'll never win that argument, but I absolutely agree.
people have no idea about how big the military and defense budgets worldwide are next to any other example of a public budget.
throw as many pie charts out as you want; people just can't see the astronomical difference in budgets.
I think it's based on how the thing works; a good defense works until it doesn't -- the other systems/budgets in place have a bit more of a graceful failure. This concept produces an irrationality in people that produces windfalls of cash availability.
Without capital invested in the past we wouldn’t have almost anything of modern technology. That has done a lot more for everyone, including food affordability, than actually simply buying food for people to eat once.
As we all know, throwing money at a problem solves it completely. Remember how Live Aid saved Ethiopia from starvation and it never had any problems again?
I rarely find content on Netflix through their interface.
I usually google for "best movies netflix april 2022" (or shows) and look through rotten tomatoes, metacritic, etc to see if that is something worth checking out.
I had the exact same problem! There is no configuration option to change this, and I literally kept using Chromium based browsers for years because of this.
This workaround isn't perfect, but it has allowed me to switch:
- Bookmark the url
- Go to Bookmarks > Manage Bookmarks > [location of your bookmark]
- In the keywords section, put the first two or three characters (I settled on three) of the domain, so 'hac' in this case
Now when you start typing in the domain and you type those first two or three characters (or however many you want to setup), the first suggestion from firefox will be your keyworded bookmark and you can just hit enter instead of having to hit down!
Crazy how Firefox always defaults to the domain instead of the most frequently visited URL for the characters typed in, but this has worked for me.
This is intriguing -- can you explain your preference setup a bit more to get this behavior?
I was not able to get this to work on my setup. I added a keyword 'uniquekeyword' to the hackaday bookmark, but if I start typing uni... it just tries to give me a web search. I tried enabling/disabling the search bar and messing with my address bar preferences but no dice.
Counter-intuitively, it does sort of work if I put the keyword as a tag. It still tries to offer me a search as the top hit, but the tag result is the second hit.
I basically did what was suggested there. (The 2-3 character length I suggested was just from my experience of avoiding collisions with other urls I might visit and was when I wanted to hit return when I started typing.)
Not sure if these settings matter or not. I just tried disabling a few and it doesn't seem to make a difference These are the only ones that seem relevant.
In about:preferences#search I have this enabled:
- Provide search suggestions
- Show search suggestions in address bar results
In about:preferences#privacy I have this enabled (plus a few other things):
Thanks so much for this. I confirmed that this works on a virgin firefox install, and was able to get it working on my config after messing with the search settings to enable search suggestions.
The key here is that if firefox sees an exact match to a bookmark keyword, it will put that as the top hit on the address bar. So if you put a short keyword for your bookmark (in this case, ha for the aforementioned hackaday example) you can type in h a {enter} and it will take you to the full url of the bookmark instead of the base.
My replacement bank (Ally) is fine but it feels clunky (website & app) like any other bank. Really liked how simple worked how seamlessly everything worked.
