I had no idea they even have this kind of money today. Was interesting to browse through the history for a bit

The last few generations were plagued not only by heat output issues, poor pricing, and underwhelming performance in all but gaming, but also suffered irreparable manufacturing defects. The new lineup is essentially more of the same.

I always try to buy the better product, when given a choice, and it’ll take a lot of convincing me to consider this

Yeah, that’s kinda the problem too

I genuinely cannot express how much it annoys me that I cannot have a blocklist for keywords.

Most of the things I read are from my subscribed communities, which i'm very happy about generally, however given the overall state of life today, half of the posts in completely unrelated communities end up being one of the following:

• Twitter CEO
• Hate speech in US politics
• AI propaganda for some pump and dump quick money

I really just don't want to see any of those things

I’d always take a release that’s done right, over something rushed, broken, and something that will leave a poor first impression.

It’s already really difficult to engage with the content you want to see, but now they’re also taking away the only immediately noticeable metric of a successful video? Genuinely just why

Very unexpected one. Really excited to give it a shot when I can get a copy

Can't wait to see what kind of BlyatGPT these assholes come up with. The sanctions aren't harsh enough

Some of my closest friendships are people I've either never seen, or only got to meet a couple times. It's not like living far away makes them worse friends.

You never know what kind of situation you'll end up in. One time my transfer flights got messed up, and I was left stranded in a random airport for almost a day. I ended up asking around, and one of those long-distance friends drove hours to pick me up, get me some food, and let me get rest too.

Of course I'd love for them to live closer, so we can see each other regularly, but i'll take what I can have

Basically every single email client I have ever used, with the exception of Thunderbird, has somehow ended up in the hands of some soulless corp, and has either been discontinued, or got a subscription price that's impossible to justify.

Some of these genuinely make no sense too. I'm paying per inbox, and a weird web wrapper that just opens google calendar? Come on

Me and one of any family members both have an ESR case with one of those pop-out camera edges that acts as a stand. It’s excellent. I use it with my car magsafe charger, and it genuinely requires some effort to take off lol

I replaced docker with podman on all of my systems, and so far i really have nothing to complain about. Works exactly as advertised

Is there any word on when they'll allow PWA's to be sent to the application list instead?

Your eyes on the front display is what i mean. Passthrough for your own vision is awesome

This could have been an absolutely insane product, if they sold it without all the useless bullshit like the facial passthrough, at a decent price. As it is, especially given how fragile it is, it's just a toy at best.

It's basically taken the exact opposite route of something like the Xbox Kinect, which turned from a toy into something people use in science

That's a huge shame. I was using it quite extensively to sync wallpapers and immediately-necessary files to my phone.

It's not even like it looks any better for iOS either. Between the filesystem permission issues, and the background activity being severely crippled as standard, no wonder there's no development there either

The way these people pump out, and then shut down, completely unremarkable generic titles, is a skill in itself.

If they weren't trying to go for easy money, and committed the effort towards a solid project, they would have been much more well off

I use Bibata however I don't really have a strong preference for any specific one.

Going to return to this thread a bit later, just to see if other people link something interesting
