They chose not to make this feature opt-in because they know that nobody in their right mind would opt into it

Nobody would opt into it because like your OP said, there’s an astroturfing campaign to make sure that people completely misunderstand what the feature is and what it does.

When everyone around you lies to you and tells you that seatbelts are “unsafe” and then the Feds come in and say “no they’re not”, you’re still gonna believe everyone around you even if they’re patently false. Hence forcing it so people see there isn’t a problem.

Not to blame the rider because parking a fucking helicopter on a snowmobile trail is idiotic, but why the fuck was he wearing tinted goggles at night!?!?!

Looks like a corne/crkbd. You can buy the kits from several online shops

I have two of them. I love them.

Way more than that.

• requires crazy permissions like user location
• wallpapers are in a publicly accessible s3 bucket
• profit split for wallpaper creators is 50/50 which is worse than most app store splits
• most of the creators actually seem to be current MKBHD employees
• app is either built from a template or an old app that they bought

The MyColorado FAQ explicitly states that an officer cannot take your phone, even if they think your digital ID is fraudulent. This whole article is a ton of fear mongering. Digital IDs do not require you to give your phone to anyone, they do not require you to unlock (unless it’s a state specific app), and even if its a state specific app the cops aren’t allowed to take it anyway.

I use a Logitech mouse and do not have the problems you are talking about.

Counter counter retort. Just stop replying if you’re not going to participate in the discussion.

I have thousands of hours programming in python. Ruby is several thousands more. I know exactly how shit the Python ecosystem is. https://chriswarrick.com/blog/2023/01/15/how-to-improve-python-packaging/

(Now we’re at 15 now since that article came out, with the introduction of Rye).

Clearly didn’t read the article. Also discord has consistently posted fantastic tech blogs and led the industry in certain segments, no matter if you hate their locked ecosystem or not. This is a programming forum, at least read the article and discuss its merits.

As far as I know, corporations are generally unable to raise prices enough to make the price difference terrible for the consumer. E.g. invisible prices (taxes) are more effective on a company because companies can’t change their visible prices by much.

Not that I don’t believe you but I’d love to cite this in future discussions, where did you get your stats from?

You tried three in person places and then went straight to Amazon? Why not trying to buy directly from the manufacturer? You clearly didn’t try at all. Ignoring the fact that there are still plenty of other retail stores, you didn’t even try the online shops of any of your retail stores.

YouTube works fine on Firefox…

Conflating a Ruby on Rails app to all of Ruby is just not really fair. It’s like comparing Lombok to Java. Lombok is a hot fucking mess and Java app with it is gonna have difficulty at later points.

Aside from that (I think rails is honestly terrible), just looking at the repo I can see that RedMine doesn’t use bundler, which is the singular standard in the Ruby community, so it’s like saying “a project I use uses Ant under the hood so Java is bad”. Like I said, there’s a reason that Rust and Elixir based their build tools off of Ruby’s.

Your logic means literally every website on the planet with any sort of text input is social media. It’s literally an insane take.

Bash.org is gone!?! No!!!

Those articles have been proven wrong numerous times, but even if they weren’t, that has nothing to do with OP who is claiming that Google controls those companies prices.

Dude, I have a pi-hole, I block ads on every device in addition to the pi-hole. When I’m not at home I route by traffic through my home pi-hole. I know how ads work. I’ve even added ads to websites and used Google AdSense myself.

What they said in the OP is categorically false. Google does not control other companies shop prices. They simply sell a spot to companies to match a profile. They do not control pricing. They do not sell your data. They sell a spot that matches a companies targeting profile. If Google sold your data they would lose their biggest cash cow because other ad companies would buy it and decrease Google’s market share. What you are seeing is Google’s Adsense script running on people’s websites. Google controls that data, not the website.

Huh? I assume you mean RubyMine and I have no clue what dependency issues you could be dealing with unless you’re on windows (which python is even worse with). You have one package manager and one build tool on Ruby, compared to Python’s now 16 tools. Ruby is the gold star for package management which is why both Rust and Elixir copied enormous parts of it when creating their tools cargo and mix.

What an insane take.
