My parents still have cable. The buttons are backlit, they turn on when you pick it up and turn off when you set it down. There’s also a mic button you can hold down and talk to input text by voice instead of typing on a virtual keyboard with a dpad. Not rechargeable but two AAs last for a year so why bother with a battery that eventually fails and renders the remote useless?
Even basic remotes are pretty clever now
I was shocked at how often you just see people laying passed out on the sidewalk or sleeping on a bench. Japan is an insanely different place after the bars start closing. Was genuinely uneasy with how many people everywhere just had zero control of themselves.
Potatoes are famously incredibly rare and only keep for a few hours after being picked so I can totally see the purpose of a product like this
In the commotion nobody’s brain would parse “that guy just threw coffee on a baby” because that’s not something you immediately consider
Every platform needs a terrible meme that never goes away. Reddit picked a shoebox full of semen, we picked cat starvation.
To many, federation is a solution to a problem that doesn’t really exist for them. In their mind, the early model of federation is like email, a problem that was “solved” years ago by having one corporate product that was much better than others (Gmail).
To add, on top of that, the fediverse is like if gmail could just randomly decide to stop receiving emails from outlook addresses and there’s nothing any user can do about it except make another email for when they want to email outlook users.
I don’t think fediverse proponents know just how catastrophically this terminates their entire pitch in the minds of 99% of internet users
All meat is processed by definition
Mint condition and the other side story about the position and the game is on the phone
Do they use rainwater collection tanks for showers or is it just a buffer tank on the roof to compensate for low pressure?
so you become a pariah if you don’t properly adhere to 100% of the community consensus behaviors.
You don’t pocket mulch?!
I started on beehaw and moved here because they got too defederation-happy. I don’t want to post on an antisocial network, if I want to be alone with my thoughts I won’t go online at all. It’s a valid choice for them to make but I believe in Lemmy because I want a non-corporate non-evasive Reddit, which kinda needs lots of different communities.
Long press the homescreen, wallpaper and style, themed icons
Let me just write down my appointments on this cartoon old-timey video camera
Yeah these icons are all distinctive
Union busting and child labour and still can’t get prices down. If that’s not a terrible CEO I don’t know what is.
Capitalism fanboys will read these posts and think to themselves “boy I sure am glad we’re not like the soviet union where a small cabal of elite deprived everyone else of a good life for their own benefit”
Just stand up. Pain stops as soon as you put weight on the leg.
Reddit is probably too big to completely disappear but if they keep isolating themselves from the rest of the internet they could easily lose mainstream appeal and end up more like a SomethingAwful
There’s a big chunk of the Linux community that will always want to gatekeep it and push out anything that makes it easier for the layman to use
