There is enough negativity online, we don’t need to add an extra layer of ragebait.

Let’s try smuggling Kinder Surprise eggs instead, maybe that will relieve the tension.

I had Tchap in mind.

I don’t know why Italy is wasting time on this.

Tech-illiterate politicians making public actions so their corporate donators keep investing in them.

One way that their incompetency limits the amount of damage they can accomplish.

At least they kinda get the implications, with their own Matrix derivative at the government level.

Or they could like… just not be dicks and supply firmware updates without the lock-in, instead of having to trade off security to use your device however you want.

Never heard “half bath”, and I always called those washrooms.

Congrats on the successful upgrade 🎉

I did it for some memes, not like I’m making money out of it.

Hopefully this will improve the sync/federation process between LW and other instances, especially those further away geographically :)

I was skeptical at first, but then I saw the option added to the menu of the breakfast place I go to. Didn’t regret it, was delicious.

The combination of sweet and salty flavors, and the fluffy and crunchy textures was 👌

I took it, no way I’d miss spending quality time with our newborn and be there for my wife.

The employer has some heads up that it’s coming too, so they can adjust the workload for something that occurs maybe once or twice in an employee’s lifetime.

But then I live in Quebec, Canada and the father can take 5 weeks and the mother can take a year. (The father can take more, but they’re swapped of the mother’s year).

For me it’s wasn’t just about the ads, but that the official app is terrible compared to the great third-party clients out there.

Instead of shitting the bed and charging abusive API rates to the third-party apps developers, they could have just made the use of third-party apps require a Reddit Premium subscription at the end-user level. That way they’d have solved the inability to display ads to third-party users by making them pay, and third-party devs could have kept doing their thing without worrying about a hefty API bill.

But instead they chose to be a bunch of dickwads and alienate the devs and give the middle fingers to their most loyal userbase. I left my 16 years old account dormant since.

The grocery store I often go to had these barcode scanners you could borrow at the entrance and scan your stuff as you go, along with scales on which you could print a barcode sticker for the stuff you pay by weight.

Once you were done, you’d scan a QR card at the self-service checkout to upload all the stuff you scanned, then pay.

It was awesome, you could just pack as you go. Unfortunately they scrapped the project once they found out that the amount of theft was significantly higher with this system. So yeah, we can’t have nice things 😒

Bought and revived by Alexis Ohanian? It can only turn out into a dumpster fire. It’s probably just to diversify their data collection in case there’s an actual massive Reddit exodus and the brand name becomes too toxic.

update private_message set deleted = true from person where person.id = private_message.creator_id and person.actor_id in ('https://lemmy.cafe/u/nicole');

🚮

EDIT: lmao cope harder, spammer. Makes it easier to find your alts.

One more reason to have actual open-source drivers instead of binary blobs…

Honestly, I’m just keeping my money in my saving account. No way I’m spending my hard-earned money on overpriced stuff, I can wait a while longer, and I’m considering a Steam Deck as my daily driver. Not a beast, but not excessively priced either.

Some instances like lemmy.world values stability over bleeding edge, and 0.19.3 has been stable for them. They do plan to upgrade to something newer eventually, it’s just that every migration carries a risk of something going wrong.

I suggest whoever has old firmware files to upload them to the Internet Archive (if they allow those).
