Ted Lasso? That TV series created by check notes Apple?

MMS and UMTS videocalls were dead in the water the second mobile carriers tried to charge a truckload for that. They did this, they basically made Whatsapp the standard.

We use Whatsapp a lot in Europe, but business fronts still communicate with phone and email. Meanwhile, in Indonesia, everything is on whatsapp! You book an hotel? whatsapp message. You need a taxi? whatsapp! you want to order in room service? send a whatsapp message, there's not even a phone in the room. A tour guide will contact you directly on whatsapp, if you don't have it installed, good luck.

Oh, now you want Europe's strong arm? Google? Now? Fuck off, you yankee!

EDIT: Also, we European literally don't care. Everyone is using Whatsapp or Telegram. There's no "Blue vs green bubble" war here in Europe, only America can get angry on such idiocy.

Upvote for Frank, he's such an amazing person!

I don't like them, but I'm far from being a "anti-landlord activist" 😂

Imagine the amount of EV cars we could charge with a half functioning dyson ring...

Working multiple jobs is a part of the fabric of the working world

is this guy for real? is this a common thought in America?

Does it sound fucking dystopic only to me?!

Which communities did you subscribe?

Because my experience is a bit different, people here seem way more polarized with their opinion (which is always right) and angry at random stuff.

I think I never saw so many "landlords haters" in social media like in Lemmy...

If that was true, EA would have been dead in the water 12 years ago.

Holy generalization, batman! :)

Oh boy, think of the poor Swiss that pay $8 for a big Mac burger since forever.

I use it because YouTube music is included and it's great while driving, it allows background play even with the screen off (I'm talking about mobile).

There's something more, but nothing that a pro user cannot already do with third tools.

In Switzerland (where German is used as language), the ß is not used, so everything is "ss".

Vimeo is expensive, I don't know how it works today, but when I tried it, I had to pay to upload some videos.

What happened to dailymotion and vimeo?

Oh wow! My post was a joke, but I just learnt the usb thumb drive is an Israeli invention, that's wild.

Fair point.

Fair point.

Clearly you never needed that single file quickly from a 5gb and 12,000 files tgz archive.
