Ah, the circle of life

They usually do yes however it’s all about prioritization.

You may have hundreds or thousands or open requests and issues.

With tens of thousands of closed issues that were either not reproducible, not actually problems, or largely indecipherable.

There’s usually a feature roadmap which is where most of the development money and time is spent. If it’s an older business application then certain bugs might easily take weeks to find, fix, test, validate, go through user acceptance, A/B test, and then deploy. But fixing is expensive work, so if the bug isn’t severe it’s usually deprioritized next to higher priority work.

The way it works right now on my phone is you tap it to turn it on and off and then you long hold to open the setting.

I’m going to be peeved if that goes away in favor of OPs process…

That’s… not now digestion works. 🤦

Imagine the massive inconvenience of separating your plastics so that your recycling facility can actually recycle more plastic waste instead of if ending up in a landfill 🤦

$1000-$1500…?

Most people are on high deductible plans, so it’s more like $3000-$5000

Honestly not even surprising anymore :(

My getting established visit with the doctor cost me $430 last month…

That’s just a visit to get started and nothing of significance was actually discussed.

Just like their search engine, every version of Android gets worse.

In this case no not really.

The cookie you might be using is going to be storage that’s going to contain your preferences. Assuming they actually applied by the regulations they claim to then that cookie actually won’t be used to track you it will simply be used for the intended purpose of cookies in the first place.

Not that I agree with their approach but but they are essentially saying here is that since there is no way to save your privacy preferences they are not in compliance with the law by ensuring that you have set your privacy preferences. Which it’s kind of bullshit, dick move on their part.

I’m 100% for piracy, but you forgot the step where the game you’re pirating has been provided by 1500 other trackers and 1461 of those have been modified to bundle malware/spyware/ransomware…etc many users may never notice it, a lot will be caught by antivirus, but some will not.

Edit: I’m a software dev branching into security. The more I learn the harder it gets to find the actual source for cracked software and the more I notice just how sketch most are.

Example: It’s not a great policy to eat whatever food you find first, regardless of where it was and who made it, and hope your immune system (antivirus example) takes care of it. Eventually you’ll get burnt.

Your logic isn’t sound, it’s being “old hardware” doesn’t necessarily mean it’s reliability is degraded. Not on these time scales anyways.

Quality solid state hardware can continue operating as intended for many decades without degradation.

We really need to get on top of this sort of ewaste/consumerism centered thinking with better education and awareness to the actual reliability of hardware that wasn’t built with planned obsolescence.

Don’t forget +

Super handy with Google email.

And this sort of thing is exactly how you end up with bad regex that invalidates valid emails.

The point isn’t to invalidate all bad emails. It’s to sort out most of them.

Damn, this is some next level entitled, petulant, energy.

If you’re gonna complain, at least try to do it constructively. As opposed to… Whatever this drivel is.

And just like reddit lemmy up votes the crap out of the stupidity.

:(

You… Bought premium brand items, and are shocked that they are above average price?

:surprised pikachu face:

Time to get a couple friends and some jack dolleys. Jack the truck up, and move it somewhere else, preferably in an equally awkward position.

I think that community guidelines/ code or conduct should still exist at a top level, in a digestible form, and not nested within a legal document.

They can still be part of the legal document, but should be made more accessible if said guidelines are cared about.

Otherwise you’ll find that it’s a set of expectations that no one reads (And likely cannot find even if they where looking for them), when those expectations are critically important to community health.

Seems like a fine feature to me?

These apps are toxic AF to begin with.

Please tell me no one thinks that evidence < anecdotes? Please, for my sanity…

The sad state of knowledge & logic aside:

There is SIGNIFICANT value to proving something we all think is true. This means action can be taken, it can be cited in argument, and is actually credible as opposed to a “feeling” that’s it’s worse.

Sure, we “know” it’s worse. I’ve experienced search results getting worse and worse for what seems like nearly 10 years now. But I have no proof of this, as such it’s an anecdote.
