Yes, that’s the same thing every time Firefox is mentioned here. It’s like people here WANT to be angry.

I’m always concerned about google maps because the alternatives suck, but google is making their services awful, one by one. I’m waiting for the day that google maps becomes terrible too. I do have openstreetmaps (using organic maps on android) and I fixed a few things about my local area there but it doesn’t have some of the features I’d like and it doesn’t seem like they have plans to add them.

Just as an example, business reviews. I can use yelp but it is nice that it’s right there. Also, the user submitted things like speed traps, accidents, etc.

Yep, one shape is paid for, the other shape is not (I forget, circles or squares), and to actually see the non paying businesses you have to zoom way in now.

They say it doesn’t affect search

Way bigger. You could have many thousands.

Right, HR is there to protect the company. Your manager is (almost always) not the company. So if the manager is doing something fucky, that’s what HR is for.

If an argument is being made for one thing, Fahrenheit, it’s not relevant to bring up a different thing. Why is feet a useful measurement? Maybe it’s not, we’re talking about temperature.

If Fahrenheit is “how people feel” then why are feet useful measurements of height when 90% of people are between 4ft and 6ft?

Those are two different things. Hope this helps.

This didn’t happen at the theme park, this happened at Disney Springs, which is basically a mall.

I use bitwarden over Firefox because it can auto fill into apps. So, my bank apps or whatever else. And I’m not tied to Firefox if, for some reason, I want to stop using it.

It’s similar to why I don’t use Samsung pass on my phone. It’d work better filling in the fields, but that’s not going to help me on my PC, and I don’t want to maintain multiple managers.

Because bacteria would need to implement defenses to both attacks simultaneously, the researchers calculated that drug resistance is nearly impossible.

I’m no expert by any means, but I do know that several genetic failsafes have to be overcome simultaneously for you to develop cancer, so I don’t see why it would be nearly impossible for bacteria to overcome only two things at once.

Side tangent, but I wish people would recognize that more. You didn’t disprove something by providing ANOTHER fact.

How is it not related?

To be fair, that’s a wild way to lift a laptop.

Being able to swap a battery to keep a phone working well for a few more years makes sense.

Android “swipe” keyboards in general are almost all terrible right now. We had it, I would get the correct word most of the time and I could do it fast. Now, no matter which one I try using - Google, Samsung, Microsoft, that FOSS one - nearly every sentence i type has some word that it gets wrong.

… just buy audiophile speakers and use a dac and amp? what do you mean?

I think they got as far as the cheetah having breasts and have been conditioned by the internet that this means furry. Which is fair.

To people thinking of joining Nebula because their marketing team/shills are currently spamming this thread, see peertube (federated like lemmy, open source)

Peertube is fine, but like lemmy (but worse), there’s barely anything there. Nebula at least got creators from YouTube to make ad-free versions for Nebula. If the channels that a person are subscribed to don’t exist in Peertube, that’s not an appealing alternative for them.

Is the statement they’re quoting incorrect?

I bought affinity because I’m tired of subscriptions so… hopefully they don’t do that too.
