That UI is way better than the new one. Ironic

they made billions of profits last year. they are very far from loosing money.

I agree with the first part of your comment, AI is the new buzzword.

But AI is the correct term for LLMs and other technologies using neural networks. That’s what computer scientists have been calling them for decades. The sentient AI concept that we have comes from SciFi. I’d argue that the correct term is what experts have been calling it for years.

There’s no such a thing as good ads. Not even before the internet.

fuck paying Nintendo for life. I hope he can move to a country where Nintendo won’t be able to enforce anything and start a new life. He committed a victimless crime which shouldn’t even be a crime IMO and even worse, he was imprisoned for it. And now he has to live as a slave for Nintendo the rest of his life?

I don’t really know which countries would legally shield him from Nintendo’s bullshit tho.

they can just import bookmarks and open your last session’s tabs.

most extensions will be available too. they could check which ones you have in Firefox and install the ones available for Edge.

there would be some things missing, sure, but most people wouldn’t notice the difference immediately.

Microsoft can pull the same trickery with Firefox users. It’s their OS, after all.

oh I didn’t know wikimedia was also a for profit in disguise. that sucks hard.

I could be wrong, but I believe you only disclose your IP to your Lemmy instance.

if I were almost completely paralysed and someone promised me being able to interface with a computer, I think I’d at least consider the offer.

I wonder if it could do it faster than Chrome manages.

It would probably be the same time, Edge is just Microsoft Chrome after all.

everyone got your “sarcasm”. you’re the one being dense here. Nitter was a useful tool for those who have left twitter but needed to access information posted there. It didn’t benefit Twitter in anyway, so there was 0 downsides in using it.

the fact that you make fun of a useful community tool shutting down is why you’re deservedly being downvoted to hell

you’re incorrect. It doesn’t restrict itself to the USB-C

good to know, I’m not a native speaker lol

bluesky depends on one single entity. they promised a lot about their protocol, but they have yet to show that other instances other than the official one can operate in a fully independent manner.

So basically you would want every device to use a nonexistent updated lightning just because “it feels better”? Are you aware that lightning is a proprietary connector?

Additionally, USB-C debuted only two years later than lightning, so age is no excuse here.

separate the phone branch from the desktop computer branch. that’d be a good start.

I understand the logic behind not wanting to separate hardware and software, that’s the only selling point Apple has over any other manufacturer. So just make the iPhone a different company.

it feels better

that’s based on nothing. technically, it’s inferior in every way.

I’d say that forcing Apple to make it easy to install other operative systems in their hardware would be a good start. And yes, making firmware available for those.

If Apple were to be splitted, I’d separate the whole iPhone branch from the rest of the company.

The app store? There’s only one Xbox store on the Xbox, one Nintendo shop on the switch or Wii. It wouldn’t make sense to require supporting competition on your hardware. Did N64 games work on the Sega Genesis?

those had enough competitors and weren’t the richest companies in the world. Although if it was my decision, I’d force them to open the hardware up too and allow third party software not approved by the manufacturer.

People are paying for the hardware, they should own it and not be imposed artificial limitations.

they should at least give an option to be able to skip that. like the user manually enabling a special permission for a single app that before enabling it you see multiple scary warning screens, confirming that you know what you’re doing.

it’s my fucking phone, just let me update my software without having to go through manually clicking on update 30 times.
