Now that I think about it, the decline of ubuntu began when they inserted amazon affiliate links in their ui a long time ago. The final straw for me is forcing snaps when attempting to install some apps via apt. I replaced all my ubuntu machines with debian without any issue.

Sunk cost fallacy. The more you pay the more painful it is to quit.

Whelp, if you're on desktop, you can always use autohotkey or similar app to assign a shortcut to automatically type that signature.

Maybe try emailing the dev asking to add support for RAZR+. Some devs actually respond to requests on emails. The dev probably doesn't have that phone, so if they do respond, they might ask your help debugging the issue. Again, not all devs do this so don't get your hopes up, but I've seen some devs actually do this.

Wtf?! You copy and paste them manually? I thought you were using an app that let you set footer/signature.

When reddit fuck up again, the alternatives are already pretty mature, at least compared to last year. Back then the only app we have was jerboa (and it was pretty shitty back then too, unlike now). Now we have gazillion of lemmy apps that can suit everyone taste.

Imagine what happen when you bought a new computer. You'll install an os, then install all apps you need, copy over all data you need, etc. Now imagine if you have 100 of new computers. The tools hashicorp made basically enable you to create a recipe to perform all this operation over a fleet of servers.

Damn, iirc someone (forgot who) actually called it at the beginning of terraform debacle, though it was redhat instead of ibm, but close enough.

I bought their $20 tws recently and it's not bad for the price. They're more like budget audiophile brands.

Just for some perspective, if you want to know how little reach the fedi post with the link to this blog post got: the first post in this thread already has more likes and boosts after less than a hour since posting it than my blog post ever did that he felt the need to confront me over.

The author is probably weren't aware that their blog post get a huge engagement on hacker news and the ceo got a lot of flak there, which was probably why he felt the need to reach out and "correct" the author.

As a concept, paid search engines is actually a good idea. It incentivize the company to produce great result so their users won't search over and over (which reduce their profit), unlike google which incentivized to reduce search quality so their users have to search over and over and see more ads (per the article). If it's not kagi, I hope other paid search engines start to appear in this space. Indexing the web is expensive, and after seeing what happened with google, it's clear that free ad-suported search engine is not the way to go now.
