Respectfully disagree. Toggle buttons have an expected behavior that everyone understands. It should work just like a physical button. I don’t appreciate the “we know better for you so we’ll adjust the behavior…
Spare batteries that are designed as internal batteries not to be easily swappable, yes. Look at DSLR cameras: take out in 1 second, put in in 1 second, physically robust. We absolutely can have the best of both worlds.…
IMHO: I like the issues faced on Linux more, since I can solve them. I too have a handful of repair scripts. I feel like an adult to be given access all the internals. I don’t feel that way on Windows (and any other…
For those with more knowledge, what’s the best direct and group messaging platform for security nowadays? Is it signal? I don’t use Snapchat but have been meaning to increase personal and family security (security from…
> their own devices Sure! Apple can do whatever they want with their devices. But when they sell them to people, it’s no longer theirs. People are (IMHO rightfully) not happy with a general computing device not being…
You could also try a bowl of mashed potatoes on Donald’s head. This was one of the very embarrassing things that happened to Donald as a boy, done by Freddy Trump (his late older brother), when everyone had enough of…
One more thing thats nice with <picture> and <source> and <img> over <img> with srcset is the former can responsively change images, while some browsers (Chromium based IIRC) will assume srcset corresponds to the “same…
Sometimes I wonder if randos peek in and see this terminology and think we’re all nut cases
Following this to its logical conclusion… “Sorry, you didn’t buy a Development Pro Guitar. Please bring it in to your nearest Apple repair shop to get it retuned or restringed” See? “Development machine” just means the…
The warden is making the prison just nice enough to not cause riots, to put it vividly. Most people won’t care or understand about this openness. Their needs are satisfied with the limitations. Similar to other freedoms…
It’s a combination of Stockholm syndrome, having an expensive phone as a status symbol, and corporate worshiping. It also makes me “:(“ when I think of an alternate reality of where phones were as customizable and open…
Similar story but my low-light snake photo turned out much less “scary” than in real life. I’m guessing it has to do with how intensely focused / scared my brain was with the little guy
150k sounds like a LOT… what’s your use case for the app? It seems for any particular problem/comexity there is an estimate of how many LoC is needed (written by humans, good coding practices). And after reaching…
The problem is equating profitability with what societies want and don’t want. Morality exists outside of the business world (and it should inside as well). Further, it is a societies’ right to enforce the boundaries of…
Installing. The ability to install software on your own device should be independent of any marketplace.
s/sideload/install/g Sideloading implies a subversive action, which we should not be primed to think.
The beautiful thing is a society deeming universal (gasp!) access to mail to be important. The ugly part is profit driven mindset, and a “you live in an unprofitable area to mail to, sorry” obvious outcome
Do you have any reason to back up your claims? See the guidelines “Please respond to the strongest plausible interpretation of what someone says, not a weaker one that's easier to criticize. Assume good faith.” Just…
Legality != morality
Please write nicer comments. Everyone has their own problems and their own feelings. Their socioeconomic conditions do not invalidate them.
Temporarily at a place with 10-15 mbps. 150 MB is around 1 minute. I grew up on 30 mbps. >= 100 is all I need nowadays. But 10 mbps and websites and downloads really start to take a while. The more bits and bytes you…
Because laws are (mostly) a reflection of what society wants. People are growingly concerned with both the car manu and Apple/Google control over their car and related extra software goodies. Laws are really needed when…
Why make fun of freedom? Have some dignity. We all deserve the right to fully own our general compute devices.
cough cough hey EU you hearing this shit?
Maybe more like “Learn how to replace an AC filter by yourself instead of calling an AC repair company” I just installed PopOS on a laptop recently, and… it just worked. There’s an app store for noobs that I think…
