The purpose of tips has gone away in the US. You are supposed to tip after the delivery for a good service. Now you have to "tip" for a good service.

Isn't that illegal?

I don't want anyone getting raped in prison.

It will also complain that trying to break into the castle is unsafe, so you have to tell it that you know.

on Apple you are forced to use an Apple ID

Not entirely true. For most functionality on Android, you also need to be signed in with Google, but you can de-google it. On Apple, it's the same, but you can't de-apple it. You can currently only use the App Store which needs an Apple ID, so you can use without an Apple ID but you lose like 80% of the stuff you could use your phone for.

If I can actually download it and it's DRM-free, yes.

It should be legally required that on any system that has settings you should be able to disable wireless stuff.

I remember seeing it and thinking "No, this can't be real. No way Apple actually did this."

Edit: I just checked and if you apply all upgrades, the total hardware cost is $12,348. That's 3.5th the price of the future  Vision Pro

Nice.

It's because 789

Gotta love good regulation.

Please put an NSFW tag on this. I was on the train and when I saw this I had to start furiously masterbating. Everyone else gave me strange looks and were saying things like “what the fuck” and “call the police”. I dropped my phone and everyone around me saw this image. Now there is a whole train of people calling the police together because of this one image. This is all your fault, you could have prevented this if you had just tagged this post NSFW.

I was lowering the resolution of an emoji and what the fuck did I just make?

What program is that? Or did you just find this picture?

I use Voyager. It gets updates fast but it looks like an iOS app. I rarely encounter any bugs here. Voyager also has mark read on scroll and disabling infinite scrolling (add a Load page 2 button) Sync is also good, it deals great with vertically long images and is a native app.

Digital currency that you can buy in Fortnite. They are like Robux in Roblox.

I'm curious what it will be called, because it will definitely not be Switch 2.

Anyone else get the feeling that GPT-3.5 is becoming dumber?

I made an app for myself that can be used to chat with GPT and it also had some extra features that ChatGPT didn't (but now has). I didn't use it (only Bing AI sometimes) for some time and now I wanted to use it again. I had to fix some API stuff because the OpenAI module jumped to 1.0.0, but that didn't affect any prompt (this is important: it's my app, not ChatGPT, so cannot possibly be a prompt cause if I did nothing) and I didn't edit what model it used.

When everything was fixed, I started using it and it was obviously dumber than it was before. It made things up, misspelled the name of a place and other things.

This can be intentional, so people buy ChatGPT Premium and use GPT-4. At least GPT-4 is cheaper from the API and it's not a subscription.

Just did this.

Reminds me of these.

It's called StubHub because this feels as bad as stubbing your toe.

Nobody said a website didn't work on Firefox. Tough Microcock Teams doesn't work, I didn't find any other sites not supporting Firefox.

The market share is so low because of the same reason Linux's share is low: people use what most people use. When they get a new computer, they either don't know much and stick to Edge (which is Chromium) or install Chrome because that's what they are familiar with, and the reason they're familiar with it is because most people used that, so they also tried that. If they use other browsers, they just don't care enough to switch, no matter if it's much better or how easy switching is.

Pre-installs are also a reason, as I've said before about Edge. So if a well-known computer manufacturer put Linux on most of their laptops and a new computer user would buy one of them, they would just use Firefox cuz that's what pre-installed on most distros, and if more new users buy it who don't know about Chrome, Firefox market share becomes even bigger.

Most people just don't care enough to switch if their current setup works. Let it be Linux, Mac, Firefox or any less-used product.

But seriously stop buying Microsoft's shit. Even indirectly, don't buy Windows pre-installed computers unless you have a very specific reason for it.

I also edited my comments to be basically a Lemmy ad and completely deleted the posts except in a few communities where it could be helpful in the future.

Pay us in 3 days or we'll disable it. This is not a drill.

Here is a slightly different (but better resolution) image:

Well, today you learned that this is the current state of Reddit.

I think it's just a joke that if you tip your landlord, you are really stupid or attracted to him.

I use qBittorrent everywhere. It's really good.

Sync between mobile and Firefox is good though. Sadly I use Samsung Internet on Android because I think it's better, but when I used Firefox on both it was really good. I can still use KDE Connect to send the link to my clipboard, but it doesn't always connect (after a reboot) automatically.
