It is really unfortunate because it is a good video. Linus himself said that they had no choice but to have stupid thumbnails and titles so that the algorithm would put their videos front and centre. Youtube is to blame in this case. Linus Media Group is a business, so I understand the situation.

As for the video, it really is a good one. They compared the Mac Pro and Mac Studio to a PC using various benchmarks and concluded that the Mac Pro was just not worth it.

I have an iPhone 8 Plus and I had the same problem with the AppStore version. The latest TestFlight version is much better as they've refractored the code and they will continue to refractor the codes to make it less ram heavy.

What's the addon?

Unlike Reddit, which is a for-profit company. Lemmy servers are set up by individuals or groups of individuals for the benefit of the community at large, and donations pay for the server costs.

And I like to think of instances as countries. Each instance has its own rules and culture, and that affects how the communities are moderated. For example, the beehaw.org instance is heavily moderated compared to lemmy.world. Continuing with our example, the Technology community on beehaw.org will be moderated differently than the Technlology community on Lemmy.world.

So each instance has its own reason for existing. Another example will be https://lemmynsfw.com/ which is an 18+ instance. Basically, when you register in an instance, you become a citizen of that country.

Your account only works on Lemmy.world. But since servers communicate with each other, you can view posts/comments on communities located on other servers and reply/post on communities located on other servers.

Go to communities -> All to look for communities and join commjnjties. And welcome to the Fediverse!

Dude. I'm using Firefox on Windows, Linux and MacOS, it is the best browser out there. Fast as Chromium and extremely stable.

Firefox is out last line of defense (Notwithstanding Safari as it only runs on Apple devices).

Indeed. The more unfortunate horror stories people will hear, the more Americans will be against limiting abortions.

In my experience, Firefox is as fast as Chromium and extremely stable. What are the extensions you are using? Perhaps one of them is causing the instability you're mentioning.

I think what people are asking for right now is for studios to take risks and be creative. They want to experience something different. Superheroes and remakes have been done to death to the point that some (myself included) are just saturated.

No. This is becoming rediculous. Stopped being so obsessed with your ex.

It's the internet, you never know. In person, by how the person behaves, you know if he's being sarcastic or not. On the internet, not so much. It's just text and I've seen people who were quite serious.

And... Server is offline...

The title is somewhat misleading:

For now, Mlilo and Dlodlo, are consulting with a slew of workers’ unions as they explore unionization.

In its analysis, the survey credited iPhone's appeal among young people to Apple's premium branding – for the same storage size, an iPhone 14 (128GB) costs 1,250,000 won ($989) compared to the Galaxy S23's 1,150,000 won. Introduction of Apple Pay, Apple’s mobile payment service, to Korea earlier this year was cited as another contributing factor.

According to the article, cost is not a factor in their choice as they nearly cost the same.

The price of bottled water went up 50% in prison commissaries across Texas last month. The controversial move has two state agencies pointing the finger at each other as inmates struggle to endure an entrenched and deadly heatwave in facilities without air conditioning. The state raised the price from $4.80 per case (24 bottles) to $7.20 per case on June 27. Commissary vendor Royal Pacific Tea Company requested to raise the prices in March even though it contract was incomplete. The prices were negotiated by the state comptroller's office and appear to be approved by the Texas Department of Criminal Justice.

“I actually begged him not to [drink the tap water],” said Amy Aguilar, whose loved one is at TDCJ’s Ferguson Unit. Her significant other — whose name she asked TPR to not use — has described the water as “rancid” smelling. And she said she was concerned about the quality. “Do you smell the sewer?” Aguilar said she asked him, “And he goes, 'you kind of just smell it all. It's just this big ole rich mix of rancid smell.' ” Water quality in prisons nationwide have been characterized as very low, due to the age of the facilities and the often remote locations.

Of course, for them, prisoners are subhumans, sigh.

This is a stupid move. It's like Google changing its name to something else. Now everyone says "you need to Google this" instead of "you need to search this on the internet". Twitter has become a recognised brand and tweeting has become a verb in the dictionary. He's destroying years of work. At this point, we can safely say that his behaviour is not rational.

This one has been posted by a bot. A good feature for the bot to have is see if it has already been posted.

I hope that was a sarcasm, if so, add /s.
