We believe delivering Nokia’s 4G/LTE system to the lunar surface is a transformative moment in the commercialization of space

Absolutely love the lack of regulation for space. Going to love seeing the Google ^tm Moon in 50 years.

The reason why people are protesting the random changing of the name is the vast amount of work it generates. Websites, textbooks, maps, etc. will all have to be updated (and all this accumulates to a couple million dollars). By this logic, “Gulf of the Americas” is just as bad.

Their livelihoods are only at risk because they ignored the cards for the previous five years. If you’re living in the US, and haven’t spread your content out to other platforms by now, you are in that situation because of your own inaction. I refuse to sympathize with people who aren’t capable of simple logic.

The title makes it sound like Apple did this of their own accord. In reality, this was the deadline for no longer selling these devices inside the EU.

I use Tailscale (Taildrop & Taildrive) to send files between my devices no matter where I am. It’s a very simple install (maybe 10 minutes total), and just works.

Isn’t the whole point of “Discover Weekly” to discover new music? If you’re self-hosted, the only music you’d be accessing is stuff you’ve already liked enough to pay for, so you’re not discovering anything.

It’s just a respring, which can actually be useful in certain situations.

Wouldn’t these subreddits just immediately pop up elsewhere. For example, if r/pics was paid, what’s to stop someone from creating r/picsfree?

Pretty much DOA due to bad software adaptation and a prohibitive price tag. The marketing department also missed the massive opportunity to market this as a DS emulator (likely due to concern over Nintendo lawsuits).

Not to mention that it’s a subscription rather than a single payment.

TUBES!

I’d say having these groups coordinate in a platform where government officials are able to gain easy access is better than banning them and forcing them to move to more secure methods of communication.

With that being said, I do think most social media (even Lemmy) could do a better job at vetting what content is recommended to or seen by users.

Mandatory disclaimer: I in no way support these groups or their beliefs.

They’re not becoming Apple 2.0, Apple is becoming Microsoft 2.0. If you look into the history of Microsoft and Windows, you’ll see that they’ve always been this way, but have received more pushback in the past. Microsoft is the OG tech giant empire.

It’s less that you can’t, more that it would be impractical to do it.

That’s not what I’m saying here. Voting with your wallet implies that you expect to see some change as a result of your decision, I’m saying that you should make your decision with the expectation that a trend towards negative quality will continue.

There are suitable alternatives to both subscription based services and filmed media. If you aren’t satisfied with something you’re paying for, it doesn’t make sense to keep on paying for that.

While Netflix raised their prices, they also have been delivering less high-quality and more low-quality content. The raised prices merely indicated to people that the services they’re paying for to get away from cable TV are becoming more and more like cable TV.

People who complain about a service instead of finding an alternative are the main problem here, as they’re doing nothing to change the situation they’re currently in.

This happened like a month ago. I recall hearing this argument before.

I like this reference. Funnily enough I read somewhere that Subway actually did a campaign like that episode.

Assuming that it’s actually reverse engineered, this is great news. If not, there’s a massive lawsuit brewing.

Not to mention the numerous amount of accessories that use USB-A. My keyboard, mouse, and flash drives all use USB-A.

In my cable collection, odds are that if a cable has USB-C on one end, then either USB-A or C is on the other end. That means every other connector still requires USB-A or a dongle.

USB-A‘s longevity (~20 years) basically ensures that until it’s much cheaper to use USB-C, it won’t replace USB-A.
