I would not use „Amerika“ if I would refer to the US. I usually mean the geographical combination of North and South America if I would use the term.

If I want to reference the US, I would use „die USA“, „die Vereinigten Staaten“ or in short just „die Staaten“.

Someone got cold feet, as it seems. I guess OpenSearch started to eat their lunch.

My guess: The reputation is already ruined and this change won’t make much of a difference.

Meh, that just killed my interest in the project. I was really looking forward to their first release. Now I don’t care anymore.

Yes, typo

The rule is pretty clear: Stay away from anything Altman touches if you want to keep a clear conscience.

Bye, bye Firefox!

I used to live in Regensburg, one of the northernmost Roman garrisons. So, the oldest remaining building (stone wall) is almost 2000 years old.

Nothing

Nothing at all.

If it would be ha-capable it would be perfect. (At least on paper. )

I really need to try this.

I’m 46. I had some really bad breakups in my life, was alone for a couple of years. Until I met my (now) wife just 4 years ago. This changed everything because it made me realize that what I thought to be love before was just a shadow of what love truly is.

Keep looking forward and do not torture yourself over what could have been or what went wrong. Nothing went wrong. It’s just life that happened. There will be some amazing person out there and you just haven’t stumbled upon this person yet.

It’s ok to grief a bit. That’s healthy. But look forward and do not hurt yourself in the process.

Fair enough!

The problem is: Once the CO2 is in the atmosphere, it’s there. It does damage. No money in the world will undo that, unless we build massive factories that extract CO2 from the atmosphere and make coal- or oil-like stuff that we put back in the earth. At the same moment your consumption blasts CO2 out in the atmosphere.

That does not exist. There is no system in place (except for some small but ludicrously expensive labs) that could do that.

Planting trees (or something similar) might help in a few decades, if the trees are still alive then and not being harvested. Until then the CO2 is in the atmosphere, doing its damage. Every day, every minute, every second.

Why? To ease your conscience by claiming that it is not as bad because you paid something extra? It’s the modern version of the selling of indulgences.

It’s worse than doing nothing because it gives the people the illusion that it’s not so bad - while in fact it is exactly as bad.

Can we fast forward to the moment when this actually happens, please?

They never manage to feel native. Keeping data reliably? - Not really possible. Stability? - Fully reliant on the browser. Native notifications, target for sharing stuff, etc.? - Never seen it. …

It always feels like a compromise.

Yes

What a loss! 😜

It can look as nice as it gets. A PWA remains a PWA. Yes, I understand that there are people that like it. I don’t. I still hope for an Apollo port to Lemmy. But the development progress of Mlem and Memmy is remarkable as well.

All browsers have horrible resource management. Chrome is bad. Firefox is worse.

I do not understand why it is standard that a single browser tab can eat up the full resources of the underlying hardware. And worse: The browser programmers do not even realize that this is a problem.

I do not like this, at all.

I don’t want to replace my battery. I want my battery to last. 5 years, at least.

This legislation will achieve the opposite and paves the way for batteries that are just crap and need replacement after 12 or 18 months. The companies have no motivation to make better batteries, protect them better against premature degradation.

Sounds good, but generates a lot of trash.

It almost looks like Reddit is trying to commit suicide in the fastest possible way.

I still have an account there. But I will delete it the moment the Apollo goes dark.
