It’s why I bought Apple stocks long before I bought any Apple products. I had faith in Apple consumers.

They want cheap labor. It’s not worth it if it costs more.

Do body squats every ad break.

Which one is it.

Excuse me. Some of us do buy Apple products. And there’s nothing that comes close to the bargain price of the base model, so we laugh at it while buying it too.

I guess I’ll be the exception as someone who does have a macmini because it is the best priced mini pc that can’t be beat, and will likely get the base model for this too for the same reason.

But I still would prefer a power button in the front.

I saw this clip a while ago on why some don’t bother with Mac support https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qRQX9fgrI4s

Yeah coming to lemmy and finding out about the so called communist reminded me more of those in favor of the small ruling elite like the pigs from Animal Farm was surprising. Not realizing they are the ones being sent to the glue factory while the pigs lounge around enjoying the lavish life in this so called communist workers paradise.

Reminded me nothing of socialists or at least what I think of socialism with it reminding me of more the monarchy. They seem more like nationalists who coopted socialism/communism to white wash what they actually support and overlooking the elite ruling class that they are not a part of.

Much like the fascists in Western countries who deny they are fascists and are for democracy while supporting ideas of coups for life time dictators that hold their views. Very similar groups.

KeePassDx because of Magikeyboard to not have to copy paste in stuff.

It’s a nice simple Google keep replacement.

I love syncthing. So convenient for transferring files between windows, android, and MacOS. Platform agnostic is the best.

Obtanium is awesome too for simplifying the process of updating apks from github.

I’m saying they are using it like a rss in the fact that they are mainly there just to follow and be fed content. It’s where they go if they want direct content submissions from blank famous person.

You seem more fixated on arguing semantics.

Regular people likely care more about being able to follow who they follow than ads, which they are more likely to put up with even for basic browsing. Last bit was just how I use it.

Not with squawker for Twitter. Displays only people you follow and in chronological order. There’s no recommendations or ads.

For iPadOS had heard of people getting it bent because of the case they used requiring force when they took it in and out. Screen is also big and its thin so that can make it easier to bend if you are putting it in a bag.

I put my iPad in a hard shell laptop case if I’m putting it in a bag. And for general case to protect from scratches I used one with soft silicon edges so it was easy to take in and out a opposed to the ones that snap to the iPad.

I think because when it comes to Instagram or Twitter type social media more people probably use it only to follow accounts and have no interest in being involved in it. So closer to treating it like a rss reader than something like lemmy or reddit. And conversation feed sucks in general.

I use squawker for Twitter. Can’t comment, like, sub, or whatever and account follows are just local feeds like Stealth for Reddit or NewPipe or Freetube. And that’s all I need from it.

Yeah Apple was the one that really needs actual side loading with how absolutely locked down it is. Makes me wonder if this is just some equivalent of an empty gesture to avoid having to make Apple actually open up.

Google also can’t:

• Offer developers money or perks not to launch their apps on rival stores

This is pretty hilarious if you know about Epic’s strategy on PC.

That makes no sense at all why they impose this ruling on Android that had side loading to begin with but don’t force Apple wide open to actually allow side loading. Makes the whole thing seem like an empty gesture of nothing actually being accomplished.

What’s taking so long for side loading to be wide open for Apple.
