This made me throw up in my mouth a little bit.
Didn’t you fan boys learn after Elon? Altman is not something I’d recommend idolizing. From his crypto BS, to his preper stuff (saying he will survive in the apocalypse… sure), to the stuff his sister is saying he did to her, to his general doucheyness, to his attempts at regulatory capture…
Except they were too stupid to do it for the only change that mattered to a lot of us, API pricing/access to the full Reddit.
I was ready to pay up to $15/mo but after they way they treated the Apollo dev and the fact that for all intents and purposes Apollo was Reddit for me by the end. I’d been on Reddit since the start and used many clients but Apollo was the best and I couldn’t go back to the official or any of the clients that put up with what Reddit did.
He sounds like he is on death’s door. His voice is raspy as fuck, it was painful to listen to.
I really hope they expand this button in software later. Long press as the only activator is absurd. How about single? Double? Triple? Short-long?
I hate that the only option is long. Also I wish I could change the behavior based on context (is the phone locked, what app is active, etc). I don’t need camera or flashlight if the phone is locked, they are right there but elsewhere that might be nice.
I’m leaning towards camera in video mode as what I set it to, since getting to video mode takes longer than I’d like in most cases, even from the Lock Screen.
I mean it makes sense, the Pro 2’s JUST released a little while ago and some people will want to go full USB-C as soon as the iPhone does. In fact I’m a little impressed with Apple, we will see if the Keyboard and Mouse follow suit.
I couldn’t agree more, so many people waste their time thinking about things instead of instead trusting how they feel about things. That’s why my favorite word is truthiness.
God I miss Colbert.
As if we needed another sign that ZDnet was trash…
I fucking hate these obviously bullshit articles. “Gen Z is using feature phones”, “Gen Z are using paper maps”, “Gen Z is doing XYZ”.
No, they aren’t. At best some sad excuse for a journalist found a handful of tweets and wrote a whole article on it like it’s a “trend”.
Look, I know “journalists” are being squeezed to produce at an unreasonable rate but if you write drivel like this then you have no business calling yourself a journalist, hell I don’t even think you can call yourself a “writer” or “contributor” either. It barely passes as writing and you are contributing nothing to society.
I wonder if Elon’s tweet will apply here:
If you were unfairly treated by your employer due to posting or liking something on this platform, we will fund your legal bill, No limit. Please let us know.
Obviously I expect Elon is full of shit and won’t actually do this (or do it 1-2 times then get bored) but it would be funny to watch 2 assholes (Elon/Trump) fight over it.
People may complain about not having big changes in each year for the watch, but I think it’s important that Apple release certain products every year even if the changes are minor. Just look at the MacBook/iMac/Mac Pro lines and how much people want an upgrade (available at least) every year. It shows apples dedication to the line and it’s very important in my opinion.
People get work up about this but we’ve already crossed the rubicon once the bump was large enough that it couldn’t sit “flat”, even with a case. At this point I don’t care, take up the whole back of the phone if you want.
The bump annoyed me when it was first announced but I’ll choose better pictures over caring about the bump.
What am I missing? This article is about Trump’s rants against Jack Smith (special prosecutor), nothing about Stormy Daniels or a strap on?
I know this is an unpopular opinion, but I think this is actually a great thing for Mastodon. The truth is the majority of people are just never going to sign up for a Mastodon server as they stand today. The majority of people want algorithmic feeds run by a central entity. I know the people here don’t want that, but that’s what the majority of people do want. Will I use Threads? No but if this breathes more life into Mastodon and exposes more people to the concept then that is a good thing. Being able to use a client of your choice to interact with people on something like Threads is also a very good thing. The alternative is a completely closed social network like Twitter.
I know, I know “embrace, extend, extinguish”, but literally this is the best that we can hope for unfortunately. The alternative is everyone goes and uses a closed system.
