They’re fighting a losing battle, but I hope a side effect of it is that new people come in and change both the economics and artistry of Hollywood. Most Hollywood content sits in a very rigid box. It’s repetitive, unoriginal, and unappealing.
My two cents is there’s a structural issue that’s converged to strictly Campbellian story-telling as the end-all-be-all structure. Sure, you’ll have something come out of HBO or AppleTV that breaks it, but AAA movies rarely break it.
I haven’t had issues running a few things I needed within a VM. However, those tasks aren’t demanding.
Looking at you “iCloud for Windows”.
I wonder if the same thing happened during the digg migration.
Tbf, I have a slight feeling the users here might have a FOSS bend at a higher clip, so that perspective is to be expected.
I know because I’m one of these guys. Insert any tech company in for X and I’ll have something to grumble about after a few beers 😅

Something happened in the 80’s, but I can’t put my finger on what 🤔
Yeah, this kinda hit me whenever my first pair of AirPods died because I was using them so much. They have such tiny batteries, so a percentage difference in total charging capacity was felt quicker. Additionally, the use-case lends to them being discharged almost completely, which hurts life further. While it’s convenient, I realized I was paying a really sharp subscription service where there’s no service from the manufacturer to continue the use of the parts and ultimately the product is designed to be landfill debris.
I switched to a wire after that.
Well, for example, Android phones need to be rooted for full system access, for example. That’s a series of hoops to jump through. Same goes for installing a malicious .apk. A windows user just needs to click through a AUC prompt and the lovely has keys to the city. That’s before we touch the wonder that is admin PowerShell.
I suppose the ratio of how much knowledge the average person knows about tech to “dangerous” behavior naturally taught by the OS is higher, I suspect, on Windows.
Or – Christ it’s 2023 – Apple’s first fucking USB-C phone. Holy mother of god, having one stupid cable for the devices I want was a siren song of a mad god, but we’re finally here.
In 2023
Oh wow, I didn’t even consider checking for updates while I’m working from home.
What did the Lemmy meme go nuts on Twitter or something?
Don’t go on that place so I may be put of the loop.
This may sound argumentative, it isn’t:
The capitalist pitched the infrastructure cost to the government, design of transportation and city design flex around them, and now you need to buy the privilege to participate in society back from them. Where I live public transport is basically non-existent (unless you just so happen to live in a wealthy area, oddly enough) and I’ve known people trapped in poverty because no car means no job, but job don’t pay, so they work for car because everyone is laser focused on the merits for the individual over the collective. Even if it’s cooking the environment and is inefficient for moving people en-masse as well.
In the example you gave why not offer a train station that goes to the city? I’m one of the fortunate few that can take the train into the city and it has been ideal. Just me, my e-bike, and the train. No insurance; no emissions. It’d be perfect save the two tons of metal flying around me constantly.
I have found my calling and pilgrimage.
It’s certainly on my list alongside Debian. It’s a shame, since my distro of choice is Fedora but I’ll switch next time I need to re-install my OS. If they throw opt-out telemetry into the mix I’m dipping immediately. Sure, I could opt out, but I don’t want to fuck it up.
Who do we call the enemy?
My children, my children
Who do we call the enemy?
Who do we call the enemy?
The enemy is poverty
And the wall keeps out the enemy
And we build the wall to keep us free
That's why we build the wall
We build the wall to keep us free

Absolutely vile. It’s quite literally on their front page.
Deal breaker, not at all. Though, back when I had an iPhone I knew immediately I’d have to have another “Which of the five messaging apps will I need to preen through” conversations, since iPhone users in the US fall back on iMessage mostly.
Now, on the flip-side, what was extremely annoying about using the fruit device was assumptions others made about me in techie circles. Some of which appeared within these responses. That I was tech illiterate, vain, or a fan-boy of some sort. It simply did what I needed while carrying wonderful resale value and support times.
