I want to see all tweets of the people I follow. Precisely because I decided to follow them. It's the whole point of the site for me. Seeing all the updates from accounts I care about.

No, that gives almost zero information as to the known cause:

A technical incident in the Galileo ground infrastructure is affecting the functioning of the Galileo system, as a result of which there is a temporary interruption of some of the Galileo initial services.

The cause of the technical incident is identified and recovery actions are implemented to ensure that the nominal service is resumed as soon as possible while safeguarding quality of the services.

Yeah, I am not sure what is so special about this. I expected some truly unique ports. My 13.3" Fujitsu Siemens S936 has no USB-C (age) but all the others plus a smartcard and a sim card slot. 12.5" is not exactly a magnitude smaller.

FYI before you scroll down to gauge the length and interestingness of the story, you have to click "read more" on the top. What a messy website.

Try downloading a video from a popular social network.

That's the site's decision. You also cannot easily download images from Twitter if there are more than one in a tweet for example. On Instagram it is blocked all in all.

You are right, I would not say that to a person in meatspace and I should not say things like that to people on the internet either.

But:

Looking at their other articles gives me the impression of a content creator that just pollutes the internet for keywords, potentially paid-for.

Just look at https://heartbeat.fritz.ai/ , which this random assortment of code snippets was compiled for, it's all just keyword stuffing as promotion for fritz.ai, plain and simple.

And oh look, nicely delayed submissions of article after article by OP: https://news.ycombinator.com/submitted?id=salma-ghoneim

I find this extremely unnerving to look at, let alone trying to process its contents. There is huge amounts of whitespace, huge fonts, huge images, single lines of text with more whitespace, a wide variety of font styles without any clear hierarchy. Hardly more than 3-4 sentences on the screen at a time. And of course useless, persistent header and footer banners that induce a feeling of looking through a closing garage door.

And then it hit me, this is just another TED talk style Medium publishing influencer.

Nothing of value here, just a bunch of random OpenCV examples you can just as well find in the official docs https://docs.opencv.org/master/d6/d00/tutorial_py_root.html

That's not much different than changing my files, making a new torrent file with a small blocksize and having users use that.

What is the benefit here?
