I’m on Pixel 7 Pro and after this winter (dry hands) I’m leaning towards iPhone. I’m so sick of failing the fingerprint scanner 3-4 times before having to resort to the pin code.
FaceID worked so well on the Pixel 4 XL - why isn’t any Android manufacturer picking it up??
My first gig as a software developer offered Fedora23 I think it was if you wanted Linux. Would be interesting to see how much has changed but I don’t really have a machine to just throw fedora on
I was close to it. I’m an advocate for paying for services I use. We’re way too used to getting everything for free and we should be willing to pay for services we appreciate.
Which made me realise that Facebook especially I don’t appreciate. So I quit instead. It had value to me once but those times are long gone.
Feels like something that can be very frustrating unless they get it perfectly right
Who cares, we’re leaving an economy where no one cared about profitability. Just growth. It’s all about whether they can capitalize on that growth now.
Spotify was the same. Turned a profit the first quarter after shifting the focus towards profitability.
I’ve never seen the view of an IPO so heavily affected by bias. Superusers hate Reddit but so what - what matters is whether soccer moms are scrolling and being shown ads. No one cares that the most costly users are unsatisfied. You and me both are nothing to investors.
Is there some objective analysis of this IPO? All I’m seeing is “I’m a superuser who spent a lot of time on Reddit in 2007 and it was far superior back then. The stock will tank.”
Much harder to get distracted with a pen and paper. Main reason I use it.
Ah, might be! It’s been 10+ years since I tried it. Back then I found it very hard to navigate
Same with Lightroom vs Darktable.
Books on Google Play Books
I think you’re spot on and it applies in general to why we see a trend of subscriptions. When we all got our first smartphones, most apps were local and it didn’t cost the developer more if they had 1M downloads compared to if they had 50 downloads.
I think the main issue is we don’t know where Lemmy is one year from now. I have already started to see a decline in my usage because there simply isn’t enough content. /c/football is virtually dead it feels like and it (or rather /r/soccer) was my number one subreddit.
What the hell, this is so impressive. I’m blown away! Did not expect this kind of experience this fast!
Pff, this has to do with people caring more about their polling numbers than the environment.
Actually saving the environment requires some hard sacrifices and it’s hard to be the elected leader who tells their voters that they’re going to pay more and get less.
But in non-democratic countries you’re right of course.
Are you kidding me? Just checked this community for the first time in a month and this post is 15 minutes old? That’s freaky timing
I have been a loyal Firefox users for years but I would lie if I didn’t say I get tired of websites not working.
The people who complain about how they no longer can get answers on how to eliminate juice in the style of Hitler are people who are - to be honest - completely missing the point of this revolution.
ChatGPT is the biggest developer productivity booster I have ever seen and I spend so much more time writing valuable code. Less time spent debugging, less time spent reviewing, etc. means more time for development of things that matter.
Each tech company who just saw massive growth over the past 10-15 years have just received a new toy which will multiply their developer’s outputs. There will be a clear difference between companies who manage to do this will and those who won’t.
It’s irrelevant if I can get ChatGPT to write a poem about poop or not. That’s not the goal of this tool.
I just try really hard to do the small things all the time. Whenever I leave a room, I try to bring something with me that shouldn’t be in that room. Whenever I go into the kitchen, I try to clean one thing in the kitchen whether it’s putting something in the dishwasher or throwing out an empty package.
Just do small things whenever you have a moment.
Our place still looks chaotic though so don’t expect miracles.
So we end up with one instance having to serve millions of users… for free… Hmm yes that’s going to work.
People on Lemmy are not going to like it but either Lemmy takes off and people will have to find ways to fund their instances or Lemmy dies.
We’re in a nice period right now where kind people are able to run instances on donations or from their own pocket. But it’s not going to last.
Eh, I don’t think I should use my phone more while in bed…
