That really sounds absurd. Both the idea itself and the fact that they somehow screwed up the execution of such a simple thing that much.

Yeah, it's a common fallacy in appliance brand discussions: "my grandma has a and it still works! You should buy one, too!". First of all it's survivorship bias and almost always the quality has degraded a lot in the past decades (greed and consumers that don't want to pay the price for reliable appliances).
Beware! This app is an entry drug and soon you might find yourself being heavily invested in OSM, editing more complex data in other apps or on your computer...
It's clearly a VM
Maybe gnome can start working on becoming my de of choice again
I'm sure that's their top priority
Yeah we're all stupid, except VW and their software-defined cars. Should we cease to exist now or what are you suggesting?
That's not really how he himself describes it. His wife became a Christian and after going to church with her he wanted to investigate the backgrounds - he didn't want to disprove Christianity and was quite open-minded instead:
She invited me to a church, where I heard the Gospel explained in a way I could understand it. While I didn't believe it, I realized that if it were true, it would have big implications for my life. So I decided to use my journalism experience and legal expertise (at the time, I was legal editor of The Chicago Tribune) to investigate whether there was any credibility to Christianity or any other faith system.
The main takeaway of this article about Microsoft's horrible decisions is "Apple bad"? OS flame wars really haven't gotten less ridiculous in the past decades...
That seems like an overly tedious way of entering your preferences. Why can't I just rank a handful of factors (cheap housing, beaches, climate, politics, diversity) and give them some weight?
You could even make the ranking of the factors in the current style ("snowy winters are [much] more important than beaches"). That would reduce the cognitive load of comparing 3 vs 3 properties many times in a row.
I absolutely loved that game until it got too hard for me or I got too anxious about losing my souls (putting me in an even worse position from them on). Probably also about 70% in.
Sadly I played it on Switch, otherwise I would have used some kind of mod to lower the difficulty. Doing that would have sucked, but never finishing the game sucks even more...
There's another layer to it: it's a meme about AI
The meme talks about how millennials DON'T iron anymore
It really is sad. For more than 25 years I've been visiting Portugal (so yes, I'm part of the problem...) and every year it gets a bit worse: endless new hotels destroying the beautiful views of the cliffs, villages mostly catering the needs of tourists, ...
I just wish I hadn't told everyone how amazing it is in Portugal 🥲
Amazing, I've missed that 🤦
"not" -> "now"?
Thanks for the insight! I just hope that Porto and Lisbon don't turn into another Paris or Rome...
Who said that they eliminate competition that's way behind technologically? They haven't eliminated us, so apparently they don't. But it seems plausible that they eliminate civilizations that are on the verge of becoming dangerous - still a great filter, but probably a bit further in the future.
Me too! Kind of astonished that nobody else even mentions them. I remember them being pretty hyped about a decade ago and I am still happy with my second water pillow so far.
I understand the issues with waterbeds, but for pillows I really don't see the trouble: You don't have to heat them or otherwise maintain them, except changing the water every few years, which is done in 3 minutes: unscrew, old water in the sink, new water in from the tap, close it up again.
Yes, that is exactly the plan: "We are targeting Summer 2026 for a first Alpha version"
