Wasn’t the first ever webcam just a regular camera that took shots of the office coffee pot? I’m pretty sure it was a bespoke script

I also remember the dude who made a homebrew app for his DS to control his Canon DSLR for long exposure shots because the alternative was to drag a fat laptop around or buy a $300 Canon PDA.

It’s their second highest market after Indonesia? They dragged this out as much as possible in congress and in court because its valuable to them.

They’re going to stop moderating posts

That just means they’ll favor the right wing content since it currently benefits them. They will continue to moderate and shadow hide whatever they don’t agree with or are paid to censor.

I wonder if they’ll sell or go down in flames.

If they sell, it’ll just become overly moderated like Facebook.

If they go down in flames, a bunch of overnight competitors will compete to succeed.

Even worse is finding a rejected pull request that would have added the exact feature you need.

Don’t worry I’m sure the billions of dollars we just gave GM to make an EV will actually result in GM making an EV and totally not pocketing free tax payer money for the nth time.

Reject modernity, everyone go back to forum boards usenet lol

Fair enough, edited lol

Well since we’re here:

You can’t easily remap keys

You can scroll right but not left with the track pad

The delete key doesn’t do anything in the finder

There was no window snapping until literally a few months ago

The terminal uses cmd+c instead of cmd+shift+c (really should be ctrl but okay)

The dock sucks when using multiple windows per app

Every app relies on an antiquated menu bar at the top which is straight out of 90s UI

The Fn key is where the ctrl key should be and the alt key is where the command key should be (hardware, can’t rebind without addon tho)

You can’t control audio levels on external displays (because Apple)

Software does not support multiple displays per port and instead can only have one display per port, meaning in order to have two displays you need one cable for hdmi and one cable for USB-C, can’t have two of each.

The mouse acceleration curve is a troll for anyone not using the trackpad, and cannot be adjusted aside from being turned off.

There’s a ton more but these were just off the top of my head.

EDIT:

Because multiple people mentioned this, I have a big issue with the command/meta key shortcuts because of Apple’s braindead placement of their keys on the keyboard, so its a combined hardware software issue.

I otherwise wouldn’t mind having to use command except my pinky has to wrap around to hit alt or I have to shift my entire hand to hit command because using a standard keyboard layout like literally every single other keyboard in existence is too much to implement.

Only if it’s jailbreakable

Just to spite Nintendo for shutting down Yuzu and Ryujinx

Yeah no it does suck it made me think the Linux experience was at least 3x worse before I tried another distro.

And not just a DE thing, every part of the distro feels like it was slapped on without actually thinking of the consequences.

• netplan
• apt
• default systemd dependencies
• ubuntu GNOME
• snap
• ubuntu pro
• cloudinit conf

You can find forums and docs from as old as Fedora 11 that’s still relevant yet Ubuntu utterly fails to keep consistency across a single version update because they changed something that’s only mentioned in the changelog.

Every downstream of Ubuntu is essentially focused on removing all the BS the upstream has so you can use your computer without something breaking like it’s Arch an overused meme about Arch.

There is no right answer to the correct distro, only a wrong answer, and that is Ubuntu because practically anything else including its downstreams like LM are better for you as a user.

That already exceeds the Bosnian genocide by more than 10,000 people.

Which is why their TOS prohibits all discussion relating to it lol

lemmy.world user

Lol they banned discussion of jury nullification despite the fact that they have no reason to so their constant complaining about ml is moot

I kept saying since last year Biden was throwing away his campaign but noooooooo, its the voters who are wrong.
