Yeah, will be interesting to try (if it even starts lol)

I don’t care about the 15 or 30% cut they take, that’s pretty standard in retail and other software stores. What I do care about though is the fact that my freedom to install whatever I like on my phone is non existent on iOS. When I will be able to install Revanced and F-Droid equivalents on iOS I may consider it, but until that happens, it’s an absolute no from me

I saw someone running it on a Oneplus 6 in a Windows VM or whatever, it ran pretty poorly (in the seconds per frame territory) but the 8gen2 is incredibly fast (about 1050ti equivalent on the GPU side) so that makes me think it could be quite usable at low settings and low resolution

Cool, definitely keep us updated then!

Definitely want to try out beamng on my s23, where can I try this?

Tldr:

• médian salary is 280k
• the highest paid base salary is 718k (level 7 soft. eng.)
• most other soft. Engs are between 100k and 375k

In the article there is a graph with more of the highest base salaries in other categories but they mostly hover at 300k

The way I learned was by setting up Minecraft or GMOD servers for me and my friends. I would say this is a very good way to learn the basics since it is a project with a concrete end product.

I also played a LOT of Minecraft, which has commands to “cheat” with the game, like setting the time of day or giving yourself items. That also helped me massively understand the way commands and arguments work.

Anything that can hurt Nvidia without killing them (layoffs) is good

For those who don’t know, beeper is a service to have all your inboxes in one app that relies on Matrix bridges

Whenever it’s getting to about 30%. I also use slow charging, and since most of the time I am near a charger, it’s never a problem. I often wake up with my phone at 35%, I plug it in before going and most of the time when I go I am at 70%.

I love how fast all those sites load

If the Zenfone 10 is not available where you live, the base S23 should also be a pretty good contender. I have pretty great battery life on mine (about 10%-15% per hour, (but more often than not its around 10-12%) on regular usage like web browsing videos etc). It will also get basically twice as many updates as the zenfone. I had imported a Zenfone 8 in Canada, and I kind of regret doing that, not only was the phone pretty expensive, but I also had no warranty at all, and the repair support is basically inexistant if you import it. The S23 with a slim case is very one handeable and even though it has a smallerbattery than the zenfone 8, it has basically twice the battery life thanks to the better SoC. I got my S23 for about 700$ CAD with taxes included, so pretty great price IMO

Same, my first semester we had a course litterally about creating word and excel documents, how to format text etc… in a software engineering program. Or other example, (2nd year, 2nd semester of the year on a 3 year program) last semester, we had a semester team project that we had to give at the end. At first, I litterally had tell them how to commit changes to the github repo, because they only did it though the web UI. How they got this far into the program I honestly have no clue as we litterally had a course in the first year that had a few classes dedicated for proper git usage

I think fediverse users are on average much older than other social medias. I often see polls on mastodon and the most prominent groups are very often the 35-45 year olds. I feel like im in the minority of my age (19) caring about free software and it makes me sad that nowadays tech has to be so dumbed down because even the young can’t use computers just like my grand parents. It’s crazy how my classes most people only knew how to open instagram, but they had no clue how to save a word document

This is the same thing as people being against big companies contributing to open source software, like the Linux kernel. Like… Most contributions that make it usable today are thanks to huge corporations such as Intel or Google, and guess what? Linux is more popular and usable than ever!

Before I read: I am guessing this is about how meta will absolutely kill the fediverse and that nobody will be using it after they federate on activitypub. Will edit after I read

edit: yup lol, just bad. It assumes XMPP was killed by Google when in fact it is not and still alive. The main big clients still get updates and the main Android client should even get a Material 3 redesign this year! The big Linux client Dino has got a Libadwaita update! But XMPP is dead you tell me. Oh well… Plus in this context, Meta can’t really kill the fediverse since 1. it will just end up exactly in the state we are in today and 2. I like the point Mastodon made, the fediverse already has a almost semi-mainstream brand: Mastodon. That alone could very well save it.

In the post it talks about the Fediverse winning. Yeah sure, blocking 99% of the users of the fediverse is winning. An anti-social social media. Talk about an attractive for the mainstream people, that will surely NOT push them to centralized platforms like Threads… Plus I am 99% convinced that Threads being federated is just because of the EU laws forcing interoperability between services, so they can say they support open protocols for communication.

They already won this lawsuit but the court decided it has to allow apps to use 3rd party payment processors because it is anti competitive and it gives them an unfair advantage (see apple music vs spotify, apple music can be 30% cheaper while making the same amount of money)
