I believe at least some versions of Google Pixel don't have a camera bump (if you don't mind using a Google phone).

My personal experience is the opposite. There is no control on the produce on grandma's backyard and therefore we have no idea how much chemicals she is using. Probably she doesn't know either. But I'm sure of one thing: she

Microsoft introduced an almost drop in replacement 3 days ago[1]. It is claimed to work with most Redis clients. I believe this will change things quite a bit a least for Azure users. [1] https://www.microsoft.com/en-us&#x2F

I think these instances that serve a "family" of topics has a great chance of shining within fediverse. I'm rooting for programming.dev to bring together the programming community.

I tried to search with the full URL and it didn't show up. That's why I thought it wasn't the way to do it. But I can now see it when I search for it. So, you are right, it takes some time.

Is there a guide to do this for dummies? Subscribing is one thing, but is it possible to "comment" on another instance's community? Edit: Figured out myself. It wasn't that difficult :) I agree with others that this need

Even though it's possible to subscribe across instances, I think it would make the most sense if there was a single UI that the user can configure like an RSS reader that would bring relevant content from those the user has subscribed

I'm a happy Bitwarden user. I use the free tier and it works well for me. But people have different needs/requirements, so your mileage may vary

That's one of the few F1 races I remember. (it wasn't Alonso, though, it was Barrichello). That was dramatic. If I remember correctly, Schumacher gave the trophy to Barrichello at the podium as a gesture to show that he was the on

Probably it's easier to argue this on a small company, where the developers have a bigger impact. But I think in most companies, nobody asks the developers about these things. If the company is already invested in Office, then it'

I believe, their history of messaging apps, makes it very difficult to rely on Google in this area. Organizations that are already in Google's ecosystem will probably use it, but I doubt it will have any significance otherwise. As long

After reading the English version of the article [0] shared by others in this thread, this look like the adviser has (rightfully or not) panicked and distanced herself from the PhD student (Gerber). The adviser, in her first email, mentions

I don,t have any experience with RSS on eInk, but I would rather that my RSS only contains only the title and the "pitch"(very short summary of the article, or the first paragraph). If I'm interested, with a single keyboard s

This made me think about the Huawei devices that ship without Google Play Services. But, looking at the list of supported devices, I could not see any new Huawei phones. I wonder what the reason for this lack of support could be... Is it be

I use Keep, but there are already millions of apps that does what Keep is doing. I don't think there will be a huge vacuum.

I have seen projects where the developer(s) would say things like: "This feature request sounds good to have but we don't have the time for this now. So, I'm closing it. Could you please create it again in 6 months?" I&#

I have/had an account there and they actually responded to every email I sent and it did not feel like canned responses. So, I was positively surprised by the level of support I got for the money I paid.

Same here. I moved a lot of my contacts and several groups over to Signal. And this happened. I'm fine with the down time, I don't have any urgent communication needs and if I did, there are other ways to contact people (SMS, emai

I did something very similar with Drupal in the past. Everything was in the underlying forum, but it was possible to promote some topics to homepage with full text and create RSS feeds for those. The site since has been shut down, but I thi

What sort of a source do you need? Is Google's current slogan/motto still "Don't be evil"?

Yes, but it is no longer their "motto" (the guiding principle for the company). So, it appearing in the CoC does not mean that it's the guiding principle. But I think you are raising a good point. Why is this piece of "m
