Yeah, this is one of the main problems impeding lemmy’s growth. Normies don’t care about “instances.”
Maybe there needs to be some rough IP geolocating to just pick one for them and redirect.
What’s the difference, really? Aren’t they both decentralized microblogging social networks?
Blaming remote work, the avacado toast of 2023.
Agreed. This is well outside the scope of native browser functions. Firefox already has a rich extensions ecosystem. They can just include the extension with the browser by default for all I care, but as a native feature, this makes no sense.
They intentionally choose to handle errors poorly.
Just like they intentionally choose to handle updates poorly, DON’T YOU WANT TO REBOOT FOR THE FIFTHEENTH FUCKING TIME AND LOSE YOUR SESSION WITH 29 PROGRAMS OPEN ACROSS 8 DESKTOPS WHILE RUNNING A RENDERING PROCESS?
Meanwhile, Linux: why yes, I’ll update the kernel in-place without rebooting and keep your 784 day uptime.
To be more fair, it should be way easier to use root on Android than it currently is, and it could be done without compromising security.
Like, I shouldn’t have to dig through mountains of unofficial documentation from weird sources, only to the find that, whoopsie, this method doesn’t work for your particular submodel of phone, you have to take this ultra-specific path that’s prone to issues and may not work. Oh, and make sure you backup your entire device, because rooting will wipe it and now you have to spend your entire fucking day restoring everything.
Like, just give me the option to enable root access somewhere in the developer settings. It can even be an obscure (but simple) process like it is to enable developer settings in the first place by tapping “about” a dozen times or something. Put up a half dozen warnings explaining why it’s “dangerous” for mortals to enable root for all I care, just make it work.
Microsoft errors be all like
Contact your administrator
Motherfucker, I am the admin.
Jesse, we need to cook the books
If governments actually gave a fuck about antitrust anymore, it would be. 20-ish years ago, they dragged Microsoft to court over simply bundling IE with Windows. It didn’t even constantly nag you to set as default; just the fact that it was bundled at all was enough to make it into the sights of regulators.
Tedx speaker and OnlyFans model Zahira Kelly-Cabrera offered her take on this
This entire sentence is it’s own reflective meme.
Gen Z seem to be scarily sex-negative again, see all their complaints about sex scenes in films as an example.
I don’t keep up on zoomerisms, is this really a thing? I thought zoomers were basically the OnlyFans generation.
Nah, there’s no point in a cheap laptop unless you want to repair or replace it after the warranty expires. Too many cheap corner cuts, wears out faster.
ShutUp10 and WinAeroTweaker are the GOATS.
Have you met the vast majority of consumers? They’re dipshits.
I don’t need a 7 row keyboard, 6 is enough
I don’t care about the number of rows, specifically, it’s the particular layout that 7-row keyboards have. The point of a 7-row keyboard is having the text nav keys arranged the same as a desktop keyboard, like so:
Versus this clusterfuck:
I use those nav keys constantly and completely by feel. The very specific placement they have on a 7-row is critical to productivity without having to constantly fuck around with the mouse/trackpoint/trackpad. 6-row keyboards are dogshit.
Governments should either be operating their own systems for this or, hell I don’t know, why not just spin up a their ready-to-go Mastodon instance or something else in the fediverse not subject to the delirious whims of a petulant muskrat born with daddy’s money?
In the same way that car fails when you deliberately drive it 100mph into a brick wall.
Isn’t your “phone call” a Hollywood trope? It’s not like you get to gamble on the highest stakes call of your life (oops, line’s busy or you misdialed or whatever), but you only get one chance like it’s some legal gotcha the cops can pull on a suspect.
