I was going to go into a rant about Ubuntu and Snap but then realised you were talking about Snapchat, show how much I use any of those big tech “products”

I think the ideas that android is an open os died a long time ago. If the android flavour doesn’t have the Google Play binaries it is next to useless

As a Trekkie it looked awesome to me but to my civilian friends it looked like made for TV garbage, then they saw it and loved it

Star Trek First Contact

My proof reading has failed me yet again (original fuck up: Star Trek First Conact)

Mine would be Flight B741 by King Gizzard and The Lizard Wizard https://youtu.be/Ik-gBAlEbQY

Australian here. I see in America a similar pattern than what happens here, one party (conservative) receives a functioning government and proceeds to fuck things up with absurd policies while at the same time immediately claiming credit for the state of the country as soon as they get into power. Takes years to change the momentum of a country and by the time a new party is elected the country is almost bottoming out at which point the new (left leaning) party spends most of their first term fixing things up only to get blamed at the next election for being in power when things turned to shit. The electorate will never understand that a new government needs years to undo the fuck ups of the likes of the GOP. This time the Dems haven’t had enough time to fix up all the stupid shit the GOP did last time so I expect these next 4 years the country to hit rock bottom while the GOP is still in power and it will sadly be a moment of “Americans got what they voted for”

Yes Snap is the bane of my existence. I actually had to create an ansible playbook for work that permanently removes the snap version of Firefox and then installs the official apt from Mozilla’s PPA. And on top I install other things my teams needs like VSCode and Chromium without using snaps. A nice repeatable process I wish I didn’t have to create but when certain clients insist on Ubuntu there is not much else to do

Some of them add bugs disguised as features, like Ubuntu’s snap

I don’t kink shame

Not if you want to actually swim in the water

I’m just buying a cheap

If they move to Python they can just have pain without constant 😜

You just killed us all by putting a space between the dashes

You know they only make the drugs, Americans sniff them. So Americans should stop doing drugs and creating the market. I know you intended this as sarcasm but after 47 years of being Colombian even the jokes get old really fast

Evil-er

This is not mildly infuriating this is the free internet being eroded through Google’s control of Chrome

Hmmm I haven’t. I’ll need to give it a go in a year or so

I have a Kona Electric but I think my next car will be either a Polestar 2 if I can afford it or an EX30. Volvo/Polestar are doing things extremely well

Exactly. As the article says the growth of BYD is the biggest challenge to all other manufacturers. They are selling like hotcakes

In Australia BYDs sell like hotcakes
