Yeah, they could simplify the catalog and try to offer the same quality across the board. I don’t see the need to have multiple trail shoes on offer, some of which have a non-replaceable sole. Lone Peaks are almost perfect, keep the stone g

Do you have any reason to want non-zero drop? Because that’s one of the main reasons to buy Altras, since it alleviates some of the issues that plague knees and hip joints. My Altras last about 2x any other running shoe, and I even took the

“We tried to sell things to women” as the basis for alienating… men? It does sound like a nonsensical take on this. Nike has many flaws, but selling to women isn’t one of them.

I’m not sure the structure of Product Management allows for it. I’ve worked places where UX Research was telling us exactly what people ask for, but because it has to pass through multiple layers of PM, the end result isn’t what people aske

Pixel cameras seem to do tremendous amounts of software-based post-processing but specifically in the official Google app. My partner has tested some camera apps and nothing comes close to Google’s. So I imagine that’s one of the reasons fo

I don’t think you’re in the majority? 20 new bands a week is… I’ve met music lovers with hi-fi setups that maybe try 3 new albums a week! That’s really quite a lot. If I enjoy an album, I’ll listen to it some 15-20 times before picking favo

The claim is that people weren’t buying it enough. Which, you know, might be because they made it as thin as a feather and the battery life was terrible…

What’s the overlap between that AND with people that can put 1000+ into a phone? No, but honestly, outside the US?

It might be because of all the time and content that Apple put into the crease. It’s an engineering wonder, but they could tone it down a notch. Also: if you’re going to charge laptop-grade prices for a phone because it… gets bigger? Well,

I can’t imagine what size library causes trouble, but plugins might also be the problem with slowness or scaling. Could you manually add some indexes on misbehaving queries? I agree that SQLite might not be the better choice given many Jell

I don’t disagree with you and I’ve just learned they specifically avoid monetisation to keep their incentives aligned with the community’s. Thanks everyone for pointing that out. (…but you couldn’t call me capitalistic, that really doesn’t

Fandom is an abomination and filled with irrelevant or very basic content for most games. It wouldn’t exist if not for its phenomenal ranking on game-related searches…

This should be grounds for a class-action lawsuit. It’s lying, it’s scummy, it’s an abuse of consumer trust, and it’s written off LG as a company to do business with. I’m surprised we aren’t already seeing DPAs in the EU take on LG.

Nintendo is fighting a fairly large emulator scene, not a fringe market of custom front ends for a web service. I’m not defending Nintendo, it’s just a different scope.

Many (most?) governments around the world strike no terror on other countries. They don’t go around invading other countries, nor sanctioning them on the basis of belief, nor using their soft/hard power to exert pressure at a global sc

Eh, my M1 plays Tomb Raider games really well, it’s cool to the touch and doesn’t stutter in most situations. That’s kinda impressive for a non-dGPU.

GOS has their own support policy, they can’t keep updating old(er) devices. So yeah, it matters, as some vulnerabilities wouldn’t be patched on some devices.

Sibling comments has good points to make, but I’ll just say this: very few people side-load apps. The number of people hurt by side-loading must be dramatically smaller than the number of people hurt by malware, scams, nonsense, and adware

Bit of an unfair take. You propose the open-source community operates behind closed doors like the very software they aim to replace? I’d argue Spotify has so little to gain by being hostile, that perhaps the lawyers are more expensive than

“Experts.” Sorry, but they aren’t. I know enough people advising policy, working for external agencies, staffed on projects on a “who’s available to work on this?”-basis without any relation to their expertise.

Sounds good, thank you. The Pixel 8 is way outside my budget, it’ll mostly be a testing device for my mobile apps (gotta make them work on GOS).

Many websites might be broken, but I’d like a toggle to disable listening for scroll events. And no overflow overrides on major and screen-wide elements.
