Utah is a Mormon state: statewide, Mormons account for nearly 62% of Utah's 3.1 million residents [1] and 91 of the 104 state legislators are Mormon [2]. The LDS teachings are against pornography (comparing it to the plague in the very

Reading through this thread makes me think the canvas approach has a performance advantage on faster devices (the demos load instantly and feel snappy to me on a Razer Blade Stealth from 2-3 years ago) but probably also has a performance _d

Isn't that just semantics? Seems like every dev using Flutter for more than a few days would know that both `Text` and `SelectableText` exist and pick the one that's relevant to whatever kind of text they're adding. At that p

I just get an Apache-style "Index of /" at the top of an otherwise-blank page, so it definitely looks like things might be broken, but pieces are moving.

Yeah, I wouldn't use this service but I thought the write-up was well-written. I was surprised to see OP flagged until I saw the kind of comments people were leaving on it.

I think you'd be surprised in much of the non-coastal, non-big-city US, especially in the >40 age crowd. A few of my older friends just got their first smartphones this year. Most of my old coworkers left their phones either at home

I've silently listened on Discord to two different friends trying to get GFN working (for Among Us) in the past couple weeks. It's crazy how hard it can apparently be to install and set up for the average person.
