@jarfil @alyaza i have said plenty of wild stuff and haven't been banned from any subs? None of it has been bigoted tho

@frog @MJBrune I don't think we need to ban development, I think we need to resume focus on optimization so that things like a chat app don't take up 1+ GB of RAM for example. If the operating system can still fit in old hardware's specs, then unless someone is trying to do a task that is demanding for the currently available hardware (and it sounds like 15yo graphics card ain't in that demographic) then it should largely be a case of update operating system, grab new versions of programs, and be about your day.

@hedge It's really telling that having an API that allows controlled access to the car's state is equivalent to "no security" when uh.... that's how the rest of the world works.

@jmp242 @hedge I find that the users prefer textual search results the better training they get at searching. When things are being surfaced *for* them, they don't build the skills needed to evaluate search results and refine terms.

@soiling @BendyLemmy the quality of answers is low, you're not missing out

@Mewio @talos This, and
- do not show me ads for praegeru / hey you're queer, you should stop being queer

which was absolutely a thing that was happening to me before I was blocking ads on yt

@doctorzeromd @sailsperson I assume any smartphone - they often have comparable specifications to laptops but few keying options that don't suck.

@jmp242 @Morgueanna People these days aren't getting the practice they need to search and curate their online activities because the main platforms they grew up interacting on - twitter, insta, and tiktok, suggest communities and other users to you. They get intimidated without the assist they get from these suggestions because the breadth of options is overwhelming if you don't know how to navigate, and without very clear intervention and ramps for low-skill users it's hard to retain anyone who doesn't have the time and inclination to learn. Took me a while to figure that out, eventually learned it from a research librarian that she's actually got to work harder to teach people how to search these days.

@Arystique Imgur is deleting anonymously uploaded photos to save costs. that is .... most of them

@Arystique Invest in and preserve Imgur

@redditrefugee @Archit bit of a rude word to call her, especially in the US if you're not from here and your culture is a lot more relaxed on that word. So while it's gross that they've banned you I'm kind of not surprised that kind of language would attract that kind of attention.
