Name an industry anyone likes, aside from the money they might be making off it. They're all now hated for the same reasons, caused by the same, scarily small, group of people.

I just got one of those M5 meshtastic things with a keyboard and screen. My kid is in love with it. We're just messaging each other for now, but there's a lot of nodes in our area, so we're going to get a few more devices for

Pretty sure the author doesn't intend to enforce the entire world to run QR generation through this code. I'm not stoked Roblox doesn't let me type my real name and phone number into chat. But I can still go to the playground

That PS thing is so dumb. People really have trouble letting go of the illusion they've been living under for a long time now. Those disks might as well be random hunks of garbage. It be hilarious if PS starting shipping old AOL CDs fr

The fading draws attention to the things my brain already knew how to ignore. Less animation is almost always better, no matter what that apple guy said about "design". The only exception is where it corrects for horrible workflow

It was never science. But it was pretty obvious when there wasn't anything left to do. Then people kept changing stuff anyway. You'll never even see the trend go back to windows 95 era UI, because if the masses get that feeling ba

There's no money in online brands anymore anyway. Who cares if Bluesky, or any other platform, goes south? Just move on to the next thing. Have 2 things at once. Don't use any thing. These platforms don't own you.

Sounds like a good job for AI. Why should humans have to waste their time on it? Accounts that post any should just get banned and deleted.

You would have been so much better off just ending on the, already obvious BS, part about how his views aren't the companies. Instead, you went on to downplay the obvious problem. Mullvad was one of the last products I felt I could hon

Is "chip" a standard unit, with a fixed size?

> This is what allows us to advance our common causes. Being in a tolerant and intellectually open environment is also liberating and promotes truth seeking. Nope, that is what will get you taken over by the assholes. Reasonable defense

They fact they say they're researching it, is THE problem. They know everything you said. This is them saying "just shut up and pay your tuition".
