Pretty cool. That means people could also donate CPU time to instances they love.

I doubt manufacturers would want to put millions upon millions into research and development if they'd have to open source it all anyways.

Great that we see more and more apps popping up so quickly!

However, I find it weird that for an app based on the Fediverse, you'd refer to Discord which for all we know could have the same faith as Twitter and Reddit.

Louis Rossmann did a video on this and pointed out that there were phones that had IP67 (Samsung Galaxy S5) or even IP68 (some Sony phone) rating with user replaceable batteries. So yeah, they should be.

I'd actually love if companies/products/software went back to forums and other specialized means to get support. I hate when they refer to Reddit or worse, Discord.

So they "broke into Reddit" back in February and contacted Reddit in April. After Reddit didn't react they contacted them again a few days ago at this very opportunistic time.

They never specified exactly what kind of data they stole, nor did they prove it by providing samples.

For all we know this story could be entirely made up and they actually have nothing.

But even if they have something, them trying to come across as the good guys in this is so weird to me. No, you're not the good guys. You are criminals.

Same. With iOS, there isn't much of a point in using third party browsers, as they all have to use the Safari WebKit engine anyways.

Safari also feels great to use, especially with the new-ish bottom navigation layout. It doesn't feel bloated with features, which I feel pretty much any other major browser is nowadays (Edge with its heavy Bing and "shopping" integration, for Brave I'm not sure on iOS but on desktop it has crypto stuff and whatnot built in).

AdGuard works great for the most part. I also use Vinegar for YouTube videos.

While that's great, what I'm more concerned about is pricing for original replacement batteries. I don't really care if I have to send my phone in for 2 to 3 days (which is what it took last time I sent an iPhone 11 Pro to Apple), what concerns me more is pricing. Especially with older phones, having to pay $69 to $89 for battery repair (plus shipping) is quite a lot. Self-service parts cost the exact same price from Apple currently.

The EU should forbid charging more for replacement or repair parts than the cost to manufacture them plus a small (!) markup.

Also, please extend this law to include all kinds of electronics (smartwatches, laptops, tablets etc.).

Especially AirPods and other true wireless earbuds should have replaceable batteries, as they are basically dead after 3 to 5 years, which just feels wrong considering everything except the batteries probably lasts a lot longer and when you get an expensive "battery repair" they just give you new AirPods.

CrowdSec is likely blocking the IP or IP range of the VPN due to high amounts of traffic or malicious activity (or because it blocks certain VPNs in general, not sure). Try a different Surfshark server/location or a different VPN provider altogether (or you can obviously connect to beehaw.org with your real IP).

So what's faster? A Core 7 or a Core Ultra 5?

While I'm coping that Christian "ports" Apollo over to work with Lemmy, I love what you guys are doing with Mlem. I'm in the beta via TestFlight and what's there works quite well (even though you can clearly tell it's early days).

I'm very new to iOS development, but if I find the time and motivation I might put in the hours to contribute a feature or two.

At $0.24 per 1,000 API calls, this must be the most inefficient backend code to ever exist if that's "fair pricing" as opposed to ridiculous pricing.
