A panasonic lumix dmc-fz50 that I got from my mum after she got her new camera. It's from 2007, so not that old, but still, it's only three years younger than me. It takes pretty good photos for it's age, especially macro shots. It's biggest flaws are the display and view finder. The image in the view finder got yellow and foggy with time, to the point it's almost unusable. And the display is rather dark so it's no good in sunny weather.

Yes, China isn't in the EU. Neither are USA-based tech gigants like meta and even those twats atleast try to look like they're following regulations.

For your information, if a non-EU company offers goods or services to individuals in the EU they must comply with EU regulations, and that ofc includes GDPR.

I'd argue that 8.1 was an apology for 8 that never got accepted, 10 was an enshitified version of what 8 could have been if Microsoft shareholders didn't decide they wanted a slice of that sweet sweet mobile market.

Anyway, anything past 7 has/had unacceptable privacy violations. And that alone makes them shitte, even regardless of everything else.

Yes? The new path is there because it's still shorter, people don't walk in straight lines and sharp angles. That design is still lazy and not thought out

Oh. What is the point then? /gen

It didn't work out because the design didn't change, it was reinforced. Each attempt failed because there was no actual effort to understand why it's not working. Like wraping a leaky rusted pipe in ducktape.

To everybody acting like the desire path is the problem:

  1. If the problem for you is that it's 'bad' or 'illegal', grow a spine so that when you need to break the law, for something that matters, you can do it with dry pants.
  2. If the design doesn't take into account how people will interact with it, it's bad and lazy. Only time it would be acceptable to 'force' a way to interact with something is when there are safety concerns, and there are none here.
  3. You are traped in a cage of your own making, break free or perish like the dog you are.

I remember hearing the officier in question 'thought it was a blutooth speaker' but it might have been just a rumor or I'm remembering wrong (I hope so atleast)

In Poland we can't even trust the police to be responsible for their own safety (a officer used a grande launcher in his office), or even the millitary to handle logistics (landmines got delivered to ikea)

  1. Wasn't there one in New York just this week (and in diffrent states)?
  2. This is a community about europe, why would you expect info about an anti trump rally in here?

The most common justification for taxes on tabacoo products is that they're bad for the health of the general public, and the same goes for e-smoking.

This is only semi-related but I dislike e-smoking more than cigs, mainly cuz people that vape seem to think nobody is bothered by it and sometimes just straight up do it in public buildings, smokers atleast are selfaware and at the very least step away from people when they need a puff from the good'ol cancer stick
