Sounds like someone wasn’t able to ship product and had their licensing pulled…
Hey, he’s like, just this guy, you know?

Hilarious that it even embedded the tweet so you can see it’s not an accurate quote.
Bad enough when humans do it, adding nothing.
Text encoding is SUPER basic and anyone looking to get involved in Linux or scripting absolutely should know that stuff FIRST.
Source: I was teaching Linux 23 years ago before it was cool.
Here’s a good primer:
URL encoding:
https://www.w3schools.com/tags/ref_urlencode.ASP
Entity encoding:
https://www.w3schools.com/html/html_entities.asp
Really, ALL of the W3Schools stuff is just fantastic. Anyone remotely interested in this stuff should start at the beginning there and work up.
A Hogwart’s Legacy style game where you play as a Hobbit would be completely acceptable.
Tend the garden, cook the food, slap around the Sackville-Bagginses… I’m in!
I have 3 major games to juggle right now, Baldur’s Gate 3, Starfield and the Cyberpunk update. :( Plus my wife is in the hospital sooo… yeah, not so much gaming.
Set up the Cyberpunk 2077 update to download last night, but have been too busy with family stuff to play. :(
Will likely nuke my OG save and start over, I hear it’s a totally different game now.
Not in HTML. Never has worked that way.
Special reserved characters have always been handled this way because you don’t want to accidentally interpret something the wrong way.
Same for URL encoding. You upload “Clever Name.PDF” to a website and it generates a URL of “Clever%20Name.PDF” because spaces aren’t valid in URLs. %20 is the code for a space.
OP noted: “Don’t get me started on how this messes up linux commands and scripts”
If you’re running linux commands and scripts, you’re not a normal user and should know this already. :) It’s only been the standard for 30 years or so.
& is how & is represented in HTML.
If you need a literal &, then preceed it with an escape character like “\”.
Doesn’t really get into the features or why I would want one. :(
Legumes are a type of vegetable.
The hill I WILL die on is that mushrooms, as a fungus, are not.
Aha! Makes sense!
A $300 machine outsells a $500 machine?
😲
Next thing you’ll tell me is there are more Honda Civics than Ferraris.
26th? I thought it was the 21st?
I don’t get the surprise… Apple has ALWAYS been like this. They don’t want “normies” screwing around with “their” gear.
Heck, you needed a case cracker tool to open the OG Macintosh machines, they were specifically engineered to keep people out.

My work software kept seeing weird bugs in Chrome, so I switched permanently.
If you’re doing this in a business environment, I wouldn’t fool around with a home rolled option and would just go straight with a Websense subscription:

Not if it’s discless it’s not.
I could see that, and if/when one area of discussion becomes dominate, split it off.
I was part of the hardcore build it yourself crew for years and years, but I find now that for the last 10 years or so now, and especially with the death of places like Fry’s and all the bullshit Newegg pulled, it’s way easier and cheaper to buy a pre-built box that’s maybe 90-95% there, then tweak what you need to tweak.
Get that manufacturers warranty and forget trying to part it out yourself.
