  • If you're tired of Java you can always do Kotlin, it's a lot less wearing on your soul. And there's tons of job opportunities.

  • that is most definitely incorrect. I don't know where you heard that, but it's just absolutely wrong.

  • You are harming your teeth if you brush them that much, that’s why. Overbrushing is just as bad as brushing too little.

  • It’s a many cultures thing. My point was it’s an earth religions thing, not a dnd religions thing

  • You have to select what you want to share. Here’s what it looks like when I try to share my contact card.

  • The whole point of NameDrop is to add a new contact. So by definition it literally won’t be usable for airdrop if airdrop is set to contacts only.

  • Also circumcision is an earth/human/Christian thing. Pretty sure no dnd religions even mention it, but I could be wrong about that.

  • doesn’t really meet their last requirement

  • If that’s the first thing you see then maybe you have a problem. It took me a full 20 seconds to see it.

  • Roku is literally chock full of ads, and they send whatever you’re watching back to their ad partners. I thought Roku was good too until I recently bought one of their top of the line boxes and it had ads _everywhere _ compared to my Roku tv. I immediately went out and bought an Apple TV and couldn’t be happier. No ads anywhere, and is way snappier than Roku.

  • Apple TV. No ads at all, it’s faster than every alternative (unless you’re building your own server), and it is much easier to use than every alternative.

  • They did work collaboratively towards a standard. They just also in parallel worked on their own project, because they know standards can take an indefinite amount of time, so it could have been a decade to get USB C fleshed out, while they had already been working on Lightning in the background.

  • The fiduciary duty of the board was not profit. They’re required by charter to make sure the company advances ai safely. 4 of the board members have no investment in the company at all.

  • It doesn’t say the new venture was a competitor. People like Altman (and the rest of the board) start other companies all the time. Altman literally runs YCombinator already. This article is just bad.

  • Thanks for the context. You can really tell by reading it too, they’re clearly trying to make it sound like companies can’t exist without tracking users, absolutely batshit insane.

  • And did I mention that one could access Hangouts (and its SMS pass through server) from any machine in the world through Gmail?

    this was actually one of the things I hated the most about it. It doesn't really matter what features you provide when the product is so bad it can't even make up for it. I had no clue it had sms passthrough, it was just a shitty chat/voice client integrated into my email client, slowly making things slower and slower the more they added.

  • they're alright.. best thing is how cheap they are lol.
