Growing negative user perception has been ongoing for 5+ years, but mainly due to insane partisan censorship over particular pet issues by the US twitter staff like gender stuff. Hundreds of women banned from twitter for stating their reaso

You think twitter is in FAANG?

Ha, large customer base of very expensive laptops, that's actually tiny compared to the customer base of arm servers, Rpis. None of the paid software with a tiny userbase you're thinking of is relevant to the server market, the po

Also amusingly I think quite a lot of employers use WhatsApp for part of their disaster communications plan. If this happened then some wider issue (github down) there’d be chaos.

There are? Name some. I know Cobra Kai started out that way, but has now been solved off to Youtube as they abandoned that model. They certainly don't mention exclusive content as a region to pay for Premium.

by wooger 5y ago
A totally unrelated service that you have to pay for ( and more expensive than rivals) is not a positive.

Me too. And the fact that even with premium, PiP on iOS is still deliberately broken on web & in their app.

Agree, in the UK the service is overpriced (exchange rate?) and bundled with Youtube Music subscription service for an extremely unpalatable 1.99 GBP per month. How much of that money is just paying for music licensing I don't want or

Youtube premium in the UK is 11.99 GBP a month, and is bundled with youtube music service. * I don't want a music subscription service, and I don't want to pay for it. * That price is the same as an actual full video streaming ser

THen the right thing to do is not bundle that premium feature with other youtube music bullshit and inflate the price to 5x what it should be. And also, stop user-hostile behaviour on iOS to block OS level features (PiP, background audio) f

Seriously, youtube is absolutely unusable for me with ads, they completely destroy the experience and I'd just do something else if forced to see them. In the UK, for TV we have limits on the number and total minutes of ads per hour, y

A laughably high flat fee. In the UK, 11.99 GBP per month. For no new video content I want, no new features (they still block picture in picture on iOS app & web). They bundle the crappy youtube music service which I also don't wan

Popular opinion: Youtube premium is laughably overpriced (in the UK anyway) due to bundling with the totally unrelated youtube music service. The premium cost of 11.99 GBP per month gets you: * No ads. * Additional music service I don'

The wasted fruit has already been thrown away by the store in the case of Amazon. Fruit and veg just doesn't need wrapping - but you do want a way to keep stuff you're going to eat raw from touching gross stuff.

Most are best mixed with milk, so that's why. I too find all sweeteners absolutely disgusting and will avoid them everywhere.

From my own point of view, I've entirely abandoned and forgotten about the existence of 3 podcasts that went Spotify only. The app on both iOS and windows is a terrible implementation of podcasts, appears broken and is lacking tons of

Just a pain that due to Apple's policies on keeping a big margin and lack of sharing technology means that the rest of the industry won't benefit from this. Still very hard to see not getting an M1 as my next laptop, especially if

It'd better be more than decent for 10k! Like a lot of Apple's pro stuff, they've included tons of stuff that 90% of people don't care about, and a cost that retains profitability. But there's no good alternative fo

How did they manage to stay in the apple ecosystem at all with no updates for 5+ years before this machine? They're kidding themselves.

by wooger 6y ago
And you didn't need to wait... ~5 years between updates, during which time you were using a flawed and extrememely unsuitable previous model, with hard fixed, outdated GPUs that often thermal throttled. It's a wonder that anyone w

Same for monocrop fields of Soy beans, doused in pesticides & chemical fertiliser. There is a better way all around, with a mixture of animals and crops. And you very much need the animal dung to fertilise if we're talking about do

Erm, what? Rice is a grain. What do you think they eat in the rest of the world exactly? Pretty sure the Americas & Africa & half of Asia are rather fond of Wheat anyway.

They are constantly feeding the grass with their poo. Re-generative agriculture using a variety of animal grazing in rotation is more efficient and better for wildlife and the planet than any monocrop vegetable field will every be. Organic

Yuck. Nasty fake shit full of dubiously sourced powders from China, and more fat than 10 real burgers. To replace meat with something demonstrably less healthy is a ridiculous endeavor. All people regardless of the restrictive hipster diet

Lots of people want to live there. But do the people who live there (and own property there) want lots more people to live there? Not really no. And in some cases definitely not anywhere near them. Cities work well at a certain size and pop
