I'd recommend staying with your current distro if you're happy with it!

There's a lot of open source browsers out there. Would you use one if it doesn't have [...] mandatory extensions?

There are literally only chromium-based browsers and Firefox (and its forks) with any meaningful market share. Developing a new browser engine is extremely complicated and time consuming, so there really is no danger of having "too many" browsers. And of course all browsers based on chromium (Google Chrome, Edge, Vivaldi, Brave, ...) support the same set of extensions, because they use the same engine. So extension compatibility is also not a problem.

Supporting the gazillion ever-changing web technologies and standards and layout systems for a completly new browser is a problem though.

Yeah, "just use modulo" - no shit, you must be some kind of master programmer

So it was all just a marketing stunt to get in the news? Look how much our employees LOVE the Game pass, you should get one, too!

Yeah those communities are wild. Before I bought my own printer I thought 3D printing is mostly fixing your printer and buying better parts and bed leveling and tuning etc.

Wasn't looking forward to it so I bought an off-the-shelf printer with minimal assembly from a "boring" Chinese brand - couldn't be happier with it, it just prints without any hassle and I have no urge to switch firmwares or tinker with the printer itself instead of with the printed stuff. To each their own I guess.

(Still plugged in a raspberry pi for octoprint and did some initial calibration for the filament of course ...)

Yeah it's mind-boggling that not even Google is providing helpful changelogs for their Android apps in their own app store.

Yeah, such a weird editorialization - it's a huge trade-off, making such a feature completely unacceptable for me personally.

Honestly I would probably not use it. One if the most important things I'm looking for in an API is reliability - and a project that has no financing is really just waiting to have its plug pulled.

You might be highly motivated right now to keep it going for many years. But without a steady income it might just be a burden to keep it going at some point.

(Nothing personally obviously, I don't know you and wish you all the best!)

Absolutely, Outlook.com is by far the worst in this regard. I stopped running my own mail server a few years ago because it was just unbearable.

To me it seems pretty clear: withholding means you don't get your mail delivered and cannot fetch it yourself at the post office, while "not delivering" means just that: you don't get your mail delivered.

I generally like awards, but on Reddit I've completely ignored them on posts. It was just too many of them.

I liked the awards for comments though, as they helped pick out comments from the bottomless pit. Not really a problem on Lemmy yet...

I subscribed to YouTube Premium a few days ago, after being a long-time Spotify subscriber. It really does seem like a viable alternative.... except for the lack of something like Spotify connect. I can't even control the playback on my computer or TV from my phone. It's like every YouTube Music device is on their own, knowing nothing about the others. With Spotify I could seamlessly continue the playback of the song I was listening to in my car on my phone and later on the smart speaker in my apartment.

Can confirm for German ("das Zuhause" - "ich bin Zuhause")

That sounds super useful! Does it also change www.reddit.com/... to the archived OLD.reddit.com version? Those seem to work much better, yet most Google results are to the new interface.

Very nice! I'm currently on chromium so I can't use it – but it's one more reason to switch back to Firefox :)

There is no released video of the accident. Some videos are floating around social media but those are fake or from other, unrelated submarine catastrophies.

When you do a rewrite you want to create the same product as before just with better code / architecture. That's not what Wayland tries to do.

I envy you for not having played Disco Elysium yet. Hope you find the time soon :)

Absurdly long "article" and as always the answer is at the very bottom: Yes it's fake, the Opera GX team likes to do this stuff.

But how do you even know about his Hot wheels collection? It's not like I ask all store clerks for their hobby.

I'm in the same boat: Hollow Knight frustrated me so much that I never finished it, even though I really liked the lore and the world and the non-boss fights. Celeste on the other hand might be even "harder", but as you respawn on every screen literally instantly, you can fail and retry hard parts a hundred times until you make it.

I've switched from Nova Launcher (after their aquisition) to lawnchair launcher and it's been a good replacement for me. Similar feature set and I'm not really missing much, so I'm fine with the slow development.

Hey RickyRigatoni, nice to meet you :)

I think it's ridiculous that it's actually the sub blackout that killed Reddit today. How can this happen?
