We should lock up every CEO that oversaw this situation, not even the original ones who created the problem or the current CEO. They get paid so much money, they should be the ones taking on those risks and cleaning things up if the companies aren't operating within the law.

They're not hard to get, but you would pay $1200 AUD instead of $899 which is the retail for the 512GB OLED, for example.

If they can land this one, it would buy them a lot of good will. Just keep the monetisation people away from it..

I'm a big fan of this project. Had a chat to the dev on discord and he's pouring a lot of energy into the solo development. It would be great if he was able get some outside help.

Would YouTube get shittier if Google was broken up? I was under the understanding that YouTube is a loss leader service for Google, but I still think its one of the best social media sites on the web. Even when you consider the number of ads (that doesn't affect a revanced user).

Hahaha, touché. To be fair though, a lot of people struggle with email.

And if an easier version of email existed, email mightn't have caught on.

He's more than capable of joining the fediverse, but he's also a UI/UX designer. I would say his main issue with the fediverse is the amount of friction between a normie being exposed to the concept and actually signing up and engaging with it.

You have to admit that it isn't the simplest thing to do. People have to understand the concept of the fediverse, find an instance that will accept them, sign up (with confirmation required from the instance mods) and then find out how to find communities that they are interested in.

It's not about whether a tech-savvy person can figure it out with some effort, it's about whether normal people can transition away from a monolithic, streamlined, social media to it.

Yeah sure, the *arr suite in general is a bit advanced to set up, even if it can be done in 30 minutes with experience.

Nintendo just doing what they've always done is ironically what gamers have been calling for all this time. Just make fun games with no silly BS.

Say what you will about Nintendo's litigation strategy (its to protect the value of their IP in their mind), but they're kind of crushing it even compared to Sony.
