How is this stupid? Call it greedy or anti-consumer, but in the end it will increase Nintendo’s profits so it’s far from stupid from the company’s perspective. People buy consoles no matter how bad they are treated. Maybe you should call consumers stupid instead?

I do, too, and I hope they increase their own search index to reduce the dependency on Google/Microsoft. I love the great search experience but I hate that I’m (indirectly) giving those companies my money.

You keep ignoring everyone who says that but I will still repeat it: it’s not Google that installs third-party (!) apps on your phone.

It is really common in the other hand for OEMs (Samsung, Sony, Xiaomi, …) to install additional apps to earn money through “partnerships”.

Yeah, I wish for a “Blender” moment for GIMP. Big improvements to the UI/UX to bring more (non-tech) users and code modernization to bring in devs.

While Krita focusses on drawing, I found it basically just as good at photo editing as GIMP. So today I don’t use GIMP at all and do everything in Krita.

We have passed the torch of a fascist dystopia to another country.

Only on Lemmy you get downvoted for saying you pay for a service you like…

Asked very plainly, it refuses to answer questions related to it, but it requires very little convincing to talk about it. Much softer censorship than most of the other available models.

Sure, the problem is, that male nipples are allowed in the West, not the other way round…

None of the items in your screenshot are games?

Screw all smartphone users as well!

Disclaimer: I haven’t read the article

A wise choice in this case. It’s 23 paragraphs that mostly describe standard Thunderbird features (as the author usually does not use email clients) and only one list with three (!) bullet points of new features in Betterbird.

Edit: to save you a click, here’s the list from the article (the actual feature list on the project page is longer):

Some notable features include:

• System Tray Icon (Linux)
• Accent Colors (for folders)
• Multi-line Inbox View (disabled by default)

Oh didn’t they tell you? Making a profit is the most important thing in this world. Stop doing stuff that does not increase shareholder value!

I hate this “feature” but there is always a way to deactivate it in both the web version and the app: you can change the audio track on the settings of the video (e.g. behind the cog icon on mobile)

Thanks for posting this. Been using Linux exclusively for almost 10 years now but I still miss scrolling by clicking the MMB. I have some problems with my fingers so using the scroll wheel is rather unpleasant, yet necessarily, especially when scrolling down slowly and steadily for a long time (e g. while reading/scanning stuff)

Yeah I think most complex and long-term OSS projects have “employed” contributors paid by donations or sponsorships (e.g. Linux, Blender, LibreOffice, …)

I loved the idea of FreeCAD but having no experience in CAD software at all I always struggled with fundamental basics that were not covered in the tutorials I watched. The huge amount of work benches (some of them 3rd party) did not help since most forum posts or tutorials were based on different or outdated versions.

Having a go with build123d now, trying to model stuff using python. At least the number of available API functions is manageable and everything else is just programming (which I already know).

Yeah, an AI would have drawn it better (apart from the text, they suck at that).

Also not a fan of comics that just state an opinion without any punch line or twist.

Yeah that is absurd. I’ve found exactly one comment that is at least not negative.
