  • You can get 3.5mm to (whatever usb port) that will as far as I know work in every phone. Just because it doesn't have a dedicated port doesn't mean you can't wire in your headphones.

    I much prefer it this way, if you want to wire you can, if you don't you don't have to have an extra useless port on your device.

    Edit

    Lol, bring on your down votes. I bet if you surveyed a hundred random people on the street if they really want a headphone port on your phone and are committed to using it you'd get less than ten people. It's not realistic to support every legacy hardware function on a modern device because a few tech enthusiasts want it, especially when there's a very easy way to support it.

  • New Brunswick shout out

  • Good find! I was wondering what happened to it

  • I used these guys

    https://www.printpartner.ca/

    They were the only ones I could find that did the ultra wide in metal (it's 40x60). I added the gloss white as metal prints can sometimes dull the colors.

  • Since it was my favorite shot I got it printed. I extended the left edge with Photoshop to get an ultra wide 2:3 print (the original right edge was cropped out of the photo posted here). Got it done on a reflective metal, looks great in the dining room.

  • Going back though, I'd probably just skip the first now. 2 improved on 1 in every way. 3 and ultimate was also good but a bit bloated. Then we get a slew of mixed to bad games until we get to the nether realms era.

    So basically play 2 then play series that starts with the 2011 Mortal Kombat

  • Or smart phones. Most people under 20 probably don't remember the world without smart phones but I can remember 20 years without them.

  • Can we stop doing price per hour as a value metric. People get thousands of hours out of candy crush, doesn't mean it's worth $10,000

  • Coding.

    The other day I needed to set up a node service with an HTML front-end that allows me to upload files from a browser that end up on my machine hosted in a docker container. Something like this would take me the better part of a day to complete. Through a series of prompts I got what I needed deployed in less than an hour.

    Then unit tests. Sometimes all I need is good code coverage and since it's just tests you can verify the quality of the generated code if it runs and covers the lines you want. I've saved a ton of hours of tedious code coverage work this way.

  • I do miss the days when Epic would build bespoke games to show off their new engines. Now they just dump it all into Fortnite.

  • Yea now it's going through fluctuations. When this post went up it was at the peak of the 26th. Either way, we gotta wait this out before jerking ourselves off about a stock crash.

  • Year 1 I went hard on pokemon go, I committed to the original 150 (I don't recognize anything past red and blue) that were available and in my region then peaced out. There wasn't anything there past my nostalgia.

  • Looking at a couple hours of a stock means nothing and is purposely misleading. Zoom out and it's got pretty good upward consistency.

    Posts like this are like the sad ex who can't move on and just makes up bullshit about their former partner. Let's move on and make Lemmy better instead of being stuck making up fake news for internet points.

  • Yup that's the "nebulous music licencing platform" I was referring to

  • Bandcamp was bought by Epic Games, who fired half the staff and sold off the remainder to some kind of nebulous music licencing platform. I wouldn't cheer them on much longer, I see dark days ahead.

  • Based on the YouTube comments people are excited for this one, moreso than the previous one. I've never played a Paper Mario game. Can someone help me understand the significance of this?
