Maybe it was like that for a while? But flickr allowed image downloads, there was a dropdown in the UI with the available sizes for years. And it had an API (+stable URLs) to download images. It's possible they did not allow the way yo

The nitter thread shows the exact behaviour the article is complaining about, proving it right (at least the toned-down version). Highlighting the abusive behaviour of one person in the GOS project that actually does happen isn't an at

Yes, you are right. I read a lot about European FOSS projects (and my own blog is member of a planet for german Foss articles). Migrating away from github has been a topic for a while in that scene now. First just because github is not Foss

Take what I say with a grain of salt. There are many people that know more than me. But I'll try to answer to the best of my knowledge. If a malicious app tries to alter the system in a bootloader relevant way, it would most likely fai

I still haven't seen what you describe, the behaviour of other projects. And I dont believe it without proof (since it was claimed so often by GOS without proof being shown, or in some cases with it obviously not existing). For the sec

Sorry, but then I take this as the usual - GOS is attacking other projects, that I can easily see in all their socials, and the other projects have done nothing wrong. GOS always claims that the other projects attack them since years, and n

I have never seen drama from /e/ or any other project GrapheneOS attacks, like Calyx. Please link me to it - I asked this several times, people never can follow up. So far?

GrapheneOS claims to be a lot more secure, having additional hardening. See https://eylenburg.github.io/android_comparison.htm - keep in mind that it is not an independent comparison, the Graphene guys directly feed what th

Fair point. It's a huge field and I have no defensible option there. I was thinking of the wireless Anker IEM and the various older ones that accompanied my phones, even though as mentioned in the other comment I'm aware of higher

Porta pros specifically seem to be a subjective thing, many describe them as a bit muddy, while some like that as an easy listing mode. The KSC 75 though really impressed me, for me they replaced the ath-m50x. Less base (partly because of n

Then I think I disagree with the specifics of that statement, or am I reading this wrong? The porta pros have to sound better than the average IEM, or think of the KSC 75 for another quite nice option in that space. Especially for the price

Yeah, quite possible. You can construct the feed by some rules, mine are here: https://github.com/pipes-digital/pipes/blob/4243c9234ddab6a3... - but then you have to monitor whether it still works periodicall

Oh, thanks for the hint! I might be able to remove some code from my feed detection code (on pipes) then. But on a first glance, it seems like alternate links for channels are back, but playlists are missing. Still, that might be a step for

It does not require them. It allows them, while also having alternative means of app distribution than the expensive and proprietary app store. You see the signs of a thriving app ecosystem, not a sign of deficiency.

2033 is not that far away. If they sell a few thousand items there would still be users, so the kernel would usually not remove the drivers if not defunct. You might very well be right about the company, it is the likely outcome after all f

That's absolutely usability. To show what will happen if something like "data" on a service like ChatGPT is touched, to prevent outcomes the user did not want, to prevent accidental data loss through guidance and safeguards.

You mean toggling the data setting? It's on the program to make implications visible. That's a big part of design for usability. It's possible ChatGPT did that and the user was unexpectably dense, it's more likely the im

Good commentary, good video. She is a little bit too harsh about the data loss though. The author did not realize that disabling data sharing would delete the history of the already occurred interactions, probably not realizing that everyth

Right. Though one of this intro -> 1st song transitions from a metal album (Gamma Ray, No World order) immediately pops into my head when thinking of examples where the gap was annoying. But Pink Floyds Dark Side of the Moon would be be

My guess is not everyone is annoyed by that, or knows about the option. It was a nice surprise of qmmp, it switches to the next song without an extra pause. I use it with a winamp skin from https://archive.org/details/

I personally wrote an app where the android version was better than the iOS version (because of background tasks and notification limitations on iOS). Your "not a single android app" is an absolute statement and thus absolutely wr

I don't see any iOS advantage with the apps anymore. That was maybe true in the very beginning, during the gold rush time of the app store. But not since then. In which category are there better iOS apps? Browsers? No, strictly worse.

And how is the surrounding JS code, like the event handlers, and the CSS of the component supposed to still work now? A radio input will need at the very least additional CSS to remove the native appearance. Unlikely that was set already --

You are right. But it's a matter of perspective. In the mainstream perspective those bases are based on contracts and a method of mutual security. But there is indeed also the perspective in Germany that those bases are factually occup
