Yes. It's regressed. This video [0] is an example of what happens, EXCEPT on mine the pause was considerably longer before the "unable to purchase" pop up came up. [0]: https://youtu.be/lMMrU732w6Q?t=82 (and

Oh are you talking about how you how certain things are hidden from search in the macOS app store? I found that annoying too. I had an old machine that I wanted to upgrade to Catalina and searching through the app store gave no results. Som

As a user, I should be able to have the experience of browsing an app store with only apps that are compatible with my device and OS version. As a user and average consumer, it was not obvious to me that there was a compatibility section at

Everything you said is true but it still has no bearing on the fact that it's a dark pattern to make it inconvenient to have an old device. They have the means and technology to filter out incompatible apps, but they've decided no

So instead of filtering it out or graying out the "get" button, I need to click on the link in the app store and find the compatibility section (the last part of the page) to find out if it's compatible? That's a dark pa

Great I'm going to submit one about how the Apple iOS store forces you to get rid of your old devices and buy new ones. They make it extremely inconvenient to find out which apps are supported on your device. They don't hide the a

I wish someone would make a low powered cellular pager using an e-ink display, but then I realize only 3 people would use it. Pagers seem to be designed to actually wake you up if you get paged. I think the beeping hardware is different fro

Exactly, but sometimes it's so subtle you can't even tell it's the compression taking over.

This already happens with existing compression algorithms. Certain vowel sounds get collapsed, so someone will say, for example, "66" and it will come out on the other side as "6". Very annoying because you can't ex

The problem is that the most extreme plant-based dieters are the ones who get popular. So a vegan in popular culture's eyes is someone who eats 50 bananas a day.

I'd have to see a pretty strong argument disproving the exogenous endotoxin theory before I'd consider an all meat diet. It also sounds like it's a pretty low-fiber diet which isn't ideal.

I'm currently in the process of reducing animal product intake. I'm going about it methodically to make it into an actual habit rather than a fad where I give up a month or two later. What really got me to accept that maybe animal

Sure it goes both ways. That’s why a culture of taking offense to minor transgressions rather than giving people the benefit of the doubt is so detrimental. It goes back to that comic where someone asks about racism and the anti-racist tell
