This is a technical audience. This article is about people not upgrading phones. There are many technical and professional people that have chosen not to upgrade phones because of the lack of these features. Clearly, that group isn't t

Like I said, there are several factors in my decision making. At this point I assume most services will eventually succumb to enshittification. So, bouncing between ships, bailing as they start to sink feels like the name of the game. It&#x

This is one of the many reasons that Google has never had me as a paying customer, even though I like YouTube's content enough to pay something for it. Over the years, things like this have eroded the trust I have for Google to effecti

Absolutely. But, just because it's impossible for publicly traded companies doesn't mean a private company can't chase the short term. Private companies don't necessarily behave like Valve is by default. So, I'm als

I was with a team that moved from Jenkins to Actions. Jenkins has a lot of issues, but if you knew what you were doing, at least it was easy to see the history and at a glance know the project pipelines were green/healthy. It was super

I think this is part of the equation, no investors means enshittification hasn't come knocking. But there also seems to be an element of vision at Valve that's been allowed to flourish. Where other companies would produce an MVP a

Thank you for your response, I'll consider submitting it. For context, I've thought about commenting on issues in the past, but especially on the heels of the fake comments regarding net neutrality, for lack of a better way to put

Has much consideration been given to labeling when a third party cloud or paid service is required to use the device? As somebody who uses IoT devices "locally" on my private network, I want to know my data will stay local and pro

I just want to reaffirm the importance of this point. I've used an open source solution named Home Assistant[0] to manage my own network of IoT devices that I don't expose to the internet. I want to stay local because of the risks

America's test kitchen has some playlists on basics[0] and technique[1]. There are other videos that cover basics too. And, sometimes you'll learn a new technique in a video for a dish you've never made before. You sound meth

There are one pot or instapot/crock pot/rice cooker recipes that can help, but a lot of those still require some prep work. I 100% agree here, though. The key, especially in a small space, is to keep things clean as you work. But,

For anybody that stumbles on this, I'll note the Anki deck I'm using didn't have audio for the hiragana and katakana combination character cards. Audio is extremely useful for these, so I generated it using the Hyper TTS Add-

I'll give a couple of these a shot, but I also really have to recommend the spaced repetition Anki provides for drills. There are a lot of community created decks [0] for different aspects of Japanese. And for some reason, creating you

From my observation you're right about how comments work regarding private communities, so this is plausible. Before going straight to a conclusion, I'll just caution it's also possible that both things are true. I'll wa
