Nilay’s point is that the Vision Pro is by far the best implementation of this kind of device yet - possibly just about as good as is actually possible - and yet still suffers severe issues as a result. Usually Apple waits and learns until they can launch a product that is well considered and that often shows the industry how to move forward, yet in this case it’s quite possible that they’ve actually just demonstrated that this kind of computing fundamentally doesn’t work.
Ubuntu wants to own snap, with their own proprietary store etc which runs against alternatives like Flatpak and goes against the FOS ethos
Snap is slower and worse than Flatpak (the most popular alternative) in most ways, with very few pros that will likely be caught-up-to soon too
Also the fact that the faster the wifi, the easier it is to block.
UpNote is the best non-FOSS option
Yep, though Google is happy to process your data in the cloud constantly while Apple consistently tries to find ways to achieve it locally, which is generally better for privacy and security but also cheaper for them too.
Google effectively has a monopoly on the Android app ecosystem and this trial brought to light mountains of evidence that they maintain this through extremely anti-competitive means.
*3 hour show + 30 min pre-show which still actually included a bunch of awards.
Exactly. I can’t believe how much praise people are giving Cyberpunk for not being broken anymore. Like bro that ain’t an achievement.
None of the things happening at Bungie are related to Sony at all, as the article states
It has constant awful shader compilation stutter.
To be fair, Chrome was vastly superior to Firefox for ages in the early 2010’s
Yep. Costs a bunch of money upfront and ongoing to operate a streaming service, and even more to make even just an alright one. Plus you split consumers which will naturally give you and competitors fewer subscribers over all. All of that just to get paid directly instead of just getting free money, even if less per-view.
I really don’t understand how things like this get made.
Like I understand that there are tonnes of rich people with zero brainpower who fund this sorta crap, but how do the people creating it ever think anything other than ‘this concept is shit and nobody will ever want this’???
Apple Music is the best music platform by far due to clean and simple focus and UI, performance, and also lyrics. Unfortunately, it still sucks in all the ways that streaming inherently sucks though, combined with its intention to suck you into the Apple world.
The artist rates continually decline for every platform. In the not-to-distant future Tidal will be as shit as Spotify is now.
Actually, Suicide Squad equal with Justice League.
Suicide Squad. No explanation needed.
Pros: Moderation quality, app ecosystem, no corporations or ads.
Cons: Small community, wayyy too much duplication of ‘subreddits’ on Lemmy across different servers (inherently not an issue on Mastodon).
How the hell does Zoom have 7500 employees??
