Have you even looked at the computer electronics business? Or lived a few decades? Otherwise how can you have no experience of a company deciding your use of a product doesn’t meet THEIR expectations and so they invalidate your warranty claim? Heck, look at what Intel is doing right now with its 13 and 14 series chips.
Legality is nothing without enforcement, and there’s like none of that for warranties in the US, and even less for global companies with overseas HQs.
Technical people can struggle when a choice isn’t a zero or a one.
I mean, I interpreted that as acknowledgement that Lemmy is still 1% the size of Reddit, for example.
You’re talking about sleep/suspend directly from playing a game?
I used to like suspend. How is your battery life while suspended? If I left mine in suspend for more than a few hours, it’d die, or I’d pick it up and there wouldn’t be enough battery to continue playing without also charging.
… I’m shocked. I thought all development on subsonic had dried up. I used it and dsub for literal years, but switched to Plex after it seemed I was paying for nothing. :(
I’m going to have to pay $150 and send it in to be fixed. :(
I tried that and no luck. I could disassemble the entire R side to see if there’s random physical damage, but that’s a huge stretch. The case wasn’t opened before this, and the device has never been dropped or mishandled.
How do you play Hotline Miami on controller? Feels awful, IMO, or I just suck at it.
I agree it’s a bad first step. I’d keep trying idea on the table, but I’d start by working with the European car manufacturers to create huge tariffs on those cars. Make it impossible for them to be sold at those prices in Western markets
I mean, before Gmail, I had a new email address every 2-3 years. I’ve had Gmail for what, almost 20 years? That’s not what I’d define as “ephemeral.”
Anything in particular? I’m not great at understanding things that aren’t said.
Do you mean Vine? I can tell you a few things about that.
Curious what you decide. I feel trapped. My Gmail has been my primary account for almost 20 years. With that kind of longevity, switching would be extremely disruptive.
Which comes first, the comment or the content?
I’m happy to comment, but (1) it takes a lot of effort to make a good comment, and I’m not sure I regularly have meaningful things to contribute, and (2) many posts are retread memes, reposts, or iterations on slow-moving US political nonsense, and as such not worthy of commenting, and (3) new newsworthy posts are rare.
This is when I browse everything. It’s even worse in my subscribed communities.
I don’t think so.
My in laws are very technologically illiterate. I bet they have never opened word pad except accidentally… but I guarantee they know what “Word” is and think “word pad” is just some nerdy tech person word for the software they know.
I bet the number of people who both rely on word pad and who don’t know about any other free alternatives is so very low.
So, I actually read the article. It sounds like they could or should work, in theory, but because of fraud and/or marketplace incompetence, they do not. I bring this up only because I don’t think the discussion on the topic has been nuanced enough to distinguish between idea and implementation.
I never knew that! Thanks for sharing!
Hard truth? Reddit conditioned me to NOT participate.
Nearly time I wanted to discuss something or ask something important to me, my posts were deleted by mods. The few times posts would stay was because they were meme shitposts of easily digestible image content: scroll and move along. Any actual discussion was verboten.
/r/mk mods were particularly awful. Fuck those guys.
You’re being pedantic, but I’m sure you understand the point.
