The main subs or sublemmies or whatever they’re called on here have enough users that it’s a perfect alternative to Reddit.

Little niche subreddits, like my favorite gaybros and askgaybros, just a few dozen users and I’m going back to Reddit for that.

How do you know you’re happy with it compared to not being circumcised?

Wouldn’t it be amazing if the head of your dick had some sensitivity?

Why would you not be super excited for this?

This literally extends coverage to the entire world. Movies will have to come up with a another excuse then - oh I have no signal.

When you’re hiking that trail in the middle of nowhere and you slip and break your leg you can just point your phone to the sky and get help.

Google Podcasts syncs to the browser, has playback speed control, and automatic silence skipping.

What’s wrong with using Google Podcasts for podcasts or Spotify or the dozens and dozens of other podcast apps?

Google+ didn’t work because they didn’t push it hard enough and they made it an invite only beta instead of just allowing everyone to join.

Yes - I’m being serious they didn’t push it hard enough. If you had a Gmail or YouTube account it should have just instantly become a Google+ account in some sort of private mode so it doesn’t inadvertently leak your info.

If they would have just pushed it out to everyone, day one, mandatory, no opt out, then we’d still have Google+ today.

Like if they made Google Talk the default messaging client on Android we’d still have Google Talk. I don’t recall Apple making iMessage an optional messaging app you don’t have to use.

Facebook doesn’t use e2e.

There is a private chat e2e feature, but then your chats don’t show up on PC.

Why do Linux nerds that care about this sort of stuff hate snaps so much?

Is it the concept of snaps / flatpaks that is the issue or snaps specifically because Canonical is behind them?

I know literally nothing about how they work except I installed the VLC snap and it’s fine.

I couldn’t install Parsec (a remote desktop game streaming app) because of a missing dependency (an old version of lib-something codec that wasn’t in my newer version of Ubuntu). I spent like an hour trying to figure out how to take the 18.04 version and add it to 22.10. I don’t know Linux at all so I wasn’t making much progress. Someone, not the developers of Parsec, made a flatpak and it magically worked.

I was afraid that because the flatpak was made by some random guy I couldn’t really trust it. I looked inside the flatpak and it’s seems to be nothing except for the Parsec deb coming straight from the official Parsec URL and that libcodec thing that was causing a problem.

So from my perspective, not knowing the technical details or politics, what’s the problem?

So do they think that CPAP machines are just suicide devices?
