For me it’s because it seems evident that Microsoft wants Windows to be saas and here’s the thing: I don’t like Windows that much. For over 20 years now, I’ve preferred Linux for server stuff and Mac for daily driver stuff, I’ve only tolerated Windows, mainly for gaming.

Since Windows 7 died (I skipped 8 altogether and reluctantly have been dealing with 10 with lots of hacks to keep it locked down), I have only been barely tolerating it - and games were the sole reason.

Well, Proton has now obliterated that, conveniently right as Microsoft has decided that what people REALLY need is for them to be 100% shit. I refuse to install 11. So I’m out.

This is a fantastic video. I spend less and less time on Reddit now because every time I’m there I eventually get struck with a “this isn’t real people” feeling after reading something. It will always be either mundane repetitive bullshit or yet another post demanding civil war or stoking a feeling of helplessness.

Lemmy and Mastodon are slow AF but they still feel mostly real.

I hope that’s a joke. Airpods could be a Fortune 500 company all on their own.

No, I was serious, although after looking into it, I am surprised that hardware makes up 72% of their income. Perhaps they could make up the 28% software revenue shortfall with innovative new hardware and still maintain that 3.06T market cap, eh?

Proton cannot even link to FAQ or customer support pages from its apps, as Apple believes it’s possible that users will then navigate from the support page to a pricing page and upgrade their accounts without paying Apple its fee.

I didn’t realize this either.

Yeah, this also is why Apple has been so sluggish on PWAs (and why they won’t allow third party browsers). There is literally nothing that can be done in an app that can’t be done quicker and easier as a PWA these days. But how is Apple going to make any money if you can publish your own app and take your own payments? They would then become a hardware vendor and that would absolutely ruin them as a company.

Apple will throw everything they’ve got at this to attempt to maintain the status quo.

Man, it’s wild to see them go from one-child to this in a single generation.

Increasing the price of oil will increase the profits to Republican donors.

It also increases Russian profits. 🤔

I never used RIF but I came over at the same time due to the fuckery over mods. I quit all my mod positions that day too, no more working for Reddit for free.

Ah, OK yeah that makes sense.

Is it common for CCTV to track and follow all planes as they take off like the camera in this video seems to be?

No, you’re correct, most articles of this type define fertility as “births/women” - whether the outcome is by choice or not. However, there is also a decline in what we might refer to as biological fertility (or “fecundity”).

So lemmy.ca and piefed.ca have different feeds altogether when I view them, are they two separate things then? I’m not really clear on how communicating freely between them works. I understand that’s how the Fediverse supposedly works, but I have a Mastodon account and I haven’t sorted out any way to post on/read lemmy content with it, so I’m not sure what the integration actually means in practical application? Maybe someone could help me understand.

The US says it’s 20, and in their new capacity as an official mouthpiece for the government of Russia, you can be sure that means it’s 40. Maybe more.

Ah, you’re a troll. I see. Blocked.

So all you’ve mustered is some lame-ass ad-hominem? Have a good day

So you don’t have a suggestion. Got it.

Well then, rage against the machine for the next 30 years and see if they kill it in favor of a nice, strict language that everybody loves. Maybe you could suggest one here for consideration.

It’s not that hard to understand what it is doing and why the decision was made to make it do that. JavaScript has a particular purpose and it’s mission is not consistency.

It’s not like TypeScript doesn’t exist if you just get lightheaded at the idea of learning JavaScript’s quirks and mastering using it despite them.

Some fresh air. Maybe open the windows.
