Overall GitHub still got significantly worse since the acquisition. Downtime was essentially zero before.

Leather would not provide the tension needed for this. You'd need a core maybe of something else.

That's why I don't install any app, unless I really have to. Just use the website.

You can just as well say the logos look like flowers, suns, plasma balls, retinas. If you choose to only see anuses on all of them, that's really on you.

Some older banks do have more features in their website than their app. It's usually the ones with the worse, most outdated UIs and almost useless mobile apps. After years of using several mobile-first neo-banks, I switched to a tradit

That's true. On the other hand, it's trivially easy to salvage and transplant a screen from another Fairphone. There's still people selling FP2 parts in the forums.

Each new Fairphone has pushed the boundaries of what a modular and repairable phone can be, but people must accept that it comes with a very significantly higher price (although in their case that's not only because it's modular,

Is the Ubuntu version of GIMP distributed as a snap package? I've had horrible performance with snap apps.

That only works when there's an abundance of documentation for your specific device. The moment you're on a more recent version of something and have a weird issue, all hope is lots. You get stuck in loops because all LLMs keep re

My personal anecdote is that I used to search for "xyz nutrition" quite often on Google. It used to provide a data table with lots of information. Sure, nutritional information is hard to get right, but at least that data was cons

> People in cities demanded EVs, yet didn't show up to keep buying them. That's only natural, because two kinds of people want EVs in cities (with some overlap). The first kind wants less noise, less pollution and fewer gas sta

Nihilistic bullshit isn't the hot take you think it is. The problem isn't too many people. The planet couldn't handle billions more if we used resources correctly. Is your idea of "humans enjoying nature" extreme de

> 100k/year to 200k/year Is this range just Silicon Valley or what is this? Even including just Europe, you're looking at a lower bracket of 10k. If you expand to the rest of the world... Or do you think rich cities in the

Lidl has trialed vegan lasagna a couple times now. It sells out so incredibly fast all across the country, to the cries of many vegans in Facebook and reddit communities. And yet they discontinued it years ago. I don't understand the e

Also, PrEP pills can have side effects long term. And distributing huge amounts of daily pills to remote areas of the globe is much harder than the patients getting a shot on their yearly medical visit. > I'd also be curious to know

There's almost no basis of truth in that comment, let alone sources. Germany does not have "overseas territories", so not sure what they mean by that. There's nothing of the like happening within Germany either. Germany

Sure, but it's still surprising that 1/3 of all data centers in the whole world are dedicated to that one use.

The author claims it's surprising that AI uses less electricity than the rest of data centers. Why?? Data centers do a million different things other than AI

So happy being able to buy a Fairphone. Have replaced the screen once, the battery twice, and the back twice too. Fairphone 4 on the its 5th year. I want to upgrade but this thing is really resilient.

Lemmy's popularity comes in waves. I was hoping for the day that Reddit would shoot itself in the foot again, because Lemmy's traffic was going through a slump. I'm looking forward to a fresh new batch of new users, content a

In a way, the YouTube channels I follow are like cable: they produce content of different genres and topics on a regular basis and serve it to me. There's another way to use YouTube, though: you can search for a video and find what you
