No, problem not solved, problem half-heartedly worked around. People dislike Discord for several reasons, bridging it to whatever different platform will at best be a bandaid.
My takeaway wasn't that he didn't like it, he did. Just not worth the absurd price unless you want to literally pay for the privilege.
Ik heb mensen horen verkondigen dat dat is omdat imessage- of facetime-gesprekken (geen idee welke precies, ik heb geen Apple-toestel) niet werken met het ding aan je oor. Of dat klopt, weet ik niet. Dat ik iedere keer als ik zo iemand zie, van binnen iets verder doodga, weet ik wel. Geen gezicht, en vaak nog het geblaat over de speaker ook.
You gotta love the copy on the Warp site. As for why they're now launching it on Linux:
Despite this, Linux has relatively few terminal options compared to Mac and Windows
...relatively few? Really?
Installing a software package through a distro's package manager sounds like a perfectly fine "Linux way" to me.
Als ik de bedrijven in dat artikel zo aan het woord hoor over "krapte op de arbeidsmarkt" en "diversiteit", zegt de cynicus in mij "we nemen gewoon internationale studenten aan want die slikken blijkbaar nog dat we ze zo min mogelijk betalen". Er is m.i. sowieso een verschil tussen "het personeel is het Engels machtig zodat een klant in die taal te woord kan worden gestaan" en "het personeel spreekt alleen maar Engels". Dat tweede vind ik toch een mindere ontwikkeling, ondanks dat ik me persoonlijk prima in het Engels kan redden. Er zijn er genoeg (ook onder de 87,25 jaar) die dat niet kunnen.
Or being forced to find a headset somewhere because my hearing is shit and I can't make out what they're saying (and don't get me started on the auto-generated sub's).
Also, not having ads waved in my face on YouTube is a plus.
Also, I read a lot faster than the average youtuber talks.
Some things benefit from video, but tech articles tend to not fall under that category.
Not just "should", the GDPR actually requires it. Not giving consent must be an easy option, not this dark pattern clickfest bullshit.
Iain M. Banks: we're living in an AI-regulated Utopia, but the AI that we totally trust might be doing some light imperialism on the side.
Pratchett / Baxter: we're headed for some bleak imperialist nonsense, and another one, and another one, and another one, and oops, a blank...
Edit: added the Long Earth one.
With those rims and tires, and in that location, I can assure you that thing isn't for work.
Someone at the office brought a Gabi Dripper (or whatever the proper name is). Basically a Kalita Wave compatible filter holder, with a shower thingy on top that you just dump water into.
I love that thing. It makes it stupid simple to brew good coffee, without faffing about, and if you want to take the time or experiment, you can still take the top off and do a manual pour.
The way I see it: it's an addition. I've seen posts about "does this defeat the purpose", and I consider that silly gate keeping. The purpose is good coffee, yeah?
