If the price I saw when I picked an item is different to what I pay at the counter, I’ll never be back at that place again, even if it means I’m paying less.

It depends I think. I found Chrome to be a tiny bit faster but then ads bogged the page down so most of the time, Firefox is faster for me.

In some very rare cases when I need to disable ads blocking, Chrome is indeed faster but I’d rather abandon websites rather than disable ads blocking.

So if you love ads, Chrome is better. If you hate ads like I do, Firefox is miles ahead.

I use Firefox everywhere which means I have ads blocking everywhere, including and especially on Android. All my tabs are synced and are easily transferred between devices.

I pirate because it’s more convenient. No launcher, no update, no DRM, no need to be always online. I still purchase games but still play the pirated version.

I feel the same too.

I think the merging can be part of the federation process as well. Since I’m going to receive posts from the same server, it can combine these posts and give me back the combined view. There will be some kind of repost ID/link so that the server knows how to combine them.

I’m at the level called “never bothered to try”.

They Shall Not Grow Old (2018) by Peter Jackson.

If the pieces are small enough, there’s an option to print one by one in the same print.

Making education so expensive that the only way for some to pursue education is to die for their country is a crime. If majority of your citizen view being part of army is only for poor people, your country does not deserve to be protected because obviously not enough people willing to fight for it. Turning your citizens into slaves and sending them into the meat grinder makes you a monster.

Russia invasion of Ukraine. They used to be number 2 army with sophisticated weapons. Now they are number 1 world laughing stock with weapons that works exceptionally well for invading Mars but not on earth.

Not sure if they’re different now. I tried YouTube Music one year ago and it’s very hard to find new music. On Spotify, I can navigate from one song to a related song and another and so on. On YouTube Music, it keeps taking me back to artists and songs that I have liked before, making it very hard to find new music.

I saw that “subreddit” was changed to “communties” in the app recently so I was quite certain that a version for Lemmy is being at least experimented with.

Bobiverse series (science fiction).

Reddit declined to comment

That means what The Verge says is 100% correct. Reddit will speak when there’s corrections to make. :-)

Reddit both refused to delete comments and not showing some comments so that people cannot deleye manually? That’s super “legal”.

Think of it as GMail and Yahoo! Mail. It’s still emails at the end of the day but the UI looks different and their servers are definitely different.

Lemmy advantage is that it’s both open source and federated. Someone can make a version with accessibility feature (which will likely be integrated into main version) and deploy an instance for blind users. Blind users will then have access to the whole fediverse.

It’s just another way to say “I find it easier to interrupt others in-person”.

CEOs tends to think they’re special. They do not think they are there because of right time right place.

I work in tech and I have seen how a small change in organization structure, such as a Product Manager leaving, or adjusting how Product, Engineering and Marketing working together, having a huge impact on how the business operates. Yet most CEOs think the company is where they are because of their own decisions. It’s quite the other way around: CEOs suggesting stupid policies and other people cleaning up the shit, like “let’s all go back to office because I’m lonely here”, despite majority of employees work remotely from another fricking country.
