Lemmy is the only text-based social media I use, other than PieFed (which is practically the same, and fully compatible). If there was a PieFed client with a nice UI, I'd switch fully in a heartbeat. Unfortunately the only client seems to be Interstellar, which is functional but lacking (and ugly).

I do still use Instagram, but more so as a photo backup solution than active social media. PixFed or whatever it was called didn't work for me since nobody can guarantee that the server I chose will actively be maintained long term.

I've been using it for 12+ years, and still do to this day. The only thing that changed is that you have to use the Microsoft authenticator app to log on.

Fuck outlook, the app is trash.

Nine works great for exchange servers, if you can't escape the Microsoft infrastructure altogether.

That is just as bad.

Could be beneficial for your career, but your colleagues might hate you, really depends on the company dynamics (and maybe size). If you actually like hanging out with him, don't kiss ass and expect any kind of reward and just be yourself, personally I don't see any harm.

They exist in Switzerland.

Waze has speed trap warnings. They don't have anything else (and were also bought out by Google), but for navigation, it rocks.

They are hiding it deliberately if people are more likely to leave critical or negative reviews.

I can't leave reviews through the Google maps app either, the function is gone. If I open the mobile website, it's there again.

Fucking hypocrites.

Selling a product is a good business model if the product has a shelf life or naturally degrades over time, but served you so well that you'll replace it in kind or with an upgrade.

A product that does something exactly once and done doesn't scale long term, so once the hype was over, that was that.

Bought back by the one person who already had prior access, and bought by her own research non-profit. As far as privacy concerns go, that's the best case scenario.

Yeah Linux is great, no doubt. I've been using Xubuntu since forever, never really touched Arch, but fundamentally if you know your way around one system, you'll manage another.

Still, there are a bunch of applications that I must run under Windows, so it's good to have the no frills version available for that.

Lol, did whoever set to the shop configure it in Australian dollars? 100 AUD are just about 65 USD. Given the currency fluctuation, that could just about work out.

Install the IoT version, that comes without any of the bloat and works just fine. Not even the Microsoft store is bundled in.

I'll throw post WW2 apologetics into the ring. Can't blame Israel publicly without risking career suicide, both in politics and corporate.

Nah, I really like em on the skinny side.

Thick butts. No thank you. A little bump is nice, but most of what's out there is gross, and with a surface resembling asteroid impact craters.

Pointless, unless you leave the roomba running outdoors. Indoors you don't have GPS coverage, and your phone is logged onto the same cell tower anyway. Might just leave it stationary at home, same outcome.

That's Chinese.

Same. I've come to terms using it in browser mode on Edge, same for Outlook. The desktop applications are so horrific, I uninstalled both. Half the time they wouldn't work or force log me out.

Now I literally have a standalone screen that's showing nothing but Edge with those two tabs on, and all my productive environment is on a nice large screen where I don't have to see the crap.

Liberals are genocide apologists?!
