They can leverage these terms if they want to. For example you’re also only allowed to have one account per person.
Wasn’t it the Terraria dev who got his account locked and they used that as an excuse as to why he was locked out of his account? They said he had too many accounts or something?
They can enforce arbitrary rules when they need to if they wanna fuck you over; just like cops.
Here’s the other fucking shoe dropping guys: https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2023/11/chamberlain-blocks-smart-garage-door-opener-from-working-with-smart-homes/
People like to hate on React these days… don’t read into it too much. As always, it’s the person wielding the tool, not the tool’s fault.
No it’s worse than that. All iOS browsers need to use a Safari (WebKit) web view as far as I understand. So any browser on iOS is literally just barebones Safari with a different UI and possibly a different user agent.
In fact, until recently this was even worse as Safari on iOS enjoyed some accelerations/optimizations that the web views did not get to leverage; so for a while all iOS browsers were not only Safari, but they were slower Safari.
Yep, the new Bravias with Android TV or whatever give you a choice as a part of the first time setup that essentially disables all the smart features. I had the same experience.
Cutting Edge Engineering is one of my favorites. Basically an Aussie couple that runs a machine shop where they do very large repairs on parts for heavy equipment. Loads of lathes, milling, boring, welding, all explained and filmed perfectly.
I bought it as a kit directly from The Key Company. It’s a modernized version of the Cherry 1800 and it runs QMK. I have Box Pinks in mine at the moment.
Yeah but there are too many brands out there to choose from; as a consumer our only power is to speak with our wallets.
Corporations don’t get to pick and choose which actions from them result in lower sales; all of their actions are judged, and by all potential customers.
Maybe not as bad as the others…
I’ve been a NOFX fan for about 25 years; still am.
Their whole Vegas shooting country music joke was really hard to wake up to & read as a fan. Also the ripple effect that had on the other bands playing with them; the shows getting canceled; it was all a huge shitshow.
Having said that, I’m sure NOFX themselves have done more fucked up things than that joke, but the timing and lack of sensitivity was really a gut punch (not just to the fans, but the people of Vegas and the victim’s families).
Try to remember that there’s always somewhere worse.
I eat Taco Bell occasionally and I do like their system. Order on the app, use Apple Pay/Google Pay to actually pay for it in advance; roll up to the drive thru and give your name; drive forward and get food.
It’s the most frictionless fast food experience I ever had ever had.
Sometimes the operator is in another state! There was an article I read a while ago about… maybe it was Carl’s Jr.? but they were saying that the drive thru operators were in call centers in states with a lower labor cost.
Not exactly uplifting, but “yay capitalism” I guess.
Nothing about this story makes sense; you’ve asked a great question. Isn’t CarPlay/Android auto usually manufacturer agnostic when it comes to the features included? Wasn’t that the whole point of it?
I thought you wanted to reduce the unsprung mass on a motorcycle; that rear wheel looks really heavy. Looks difficult to service/change tires too.
I also grew up atheist in a country where it’s not OK to be secular.
My only advice to you is this: Don’t talk about religion at all. Don’t try to find other atheists; look for people you get along with and enjoy being around; don’t talk to them about religion.
I don’t love quoting NDT as he can be polarizing, but he said that non-golfers/skiers don’t gather and talk about not playing golf/not skiing (paraphrasing). https://youtu.be/CzSMC5rWvos
The last atheist I met and hung out with at college had his whole identity wrapped up in atheism; it was uncomfortable; he also had some undesirable qualities that he used his atheism to excuse. I’m not looking for an anti-religion club, I’m just not religious; maybe you are looking for a “club” though, but I wouldn’t recommend it.
Just live your life and surround yourself with supportive, good people whether they are atheist or not.
Chamberlain Group’s myQ Connected Garage service
Ahh yes, myQ; the service that is randomly up and down when you need it the most.
I had a Chamberlain myQ garage door opener and I hated it. I hated everything about it. It was slow, unreliable, the button doesn’t use a simple open/close contact for triggering the door (so you can’t easily DIY a solution with a relay board); and it just didn’t work half the time because “the cloud!”
$129 for 3 years? For what? For < 10 API requests per day? That’s insane.
Don’t most modern cars (the type that have CarPlay in them) also have programmable garage door buttons on the rear-view mirror?
Right on man, thanks for the additional context/info. Much appreciated!
For most of us, there is no difference though; you get what you get.
I live in a nice neighborhood but I won’t ever get fiber… we have underground utilities and this area is served by coaxial cable. There’s no way in hell they are digging up miles of streets to lay fiber; you get what you get.
My ISP latency is like 16-20ms but when sim racing it just depends on where the race server is (and where my competitors are). As someone on the US west coast, if I’m matched with folks in EU and some others in AUS/NZ, the server will likely be in EU and my ping will be > 200. My Aussie competitors will be dealing with 300-400.
It’s not impossible to share a track at those latencies, but for close racing or a competitive shooter… errrr that just doesn’t work.
The fact that I’m always at around 200ms for EU servers might be improved if we could run a single strand of fiber from my house to the EU sever (37ms!) but there would still be switching delays, etc. so yeah the speed of light is the limit, but to your point, there’s a lot of other stuff that adds overhead.
I have experienced the same login bug on the Mlem app as well. One of my devices stayed logged in and is working perfectly; my other device logged me out of lemmy.ml and I have not been able to log back in on that device.
