As far as I understand, lizards and dinosaurs are distinct types of reptiles the same way turtles and crocodilians are. Also dinosaurs (apart from birds which are technically dinosaurs) have been extinct since 65 million years ago, so even then this lizard is way too late in the game.

I was the same until like two months ago when I had to learn Nginx!

As far as I know only Apache uses .htaccess files, Nginx works a different way

It’s not gonna stop it from making an absolute shit ton of money, and that’s all that matters for the studios.

Even dog sized they’d probably weigh like 200Kg. Mammoths be thicc

Thank the French for this one

Yup, I totally agree. I’ve been in this situation a few times where I just asked a question because I wanted to know people’s opinion about something privacy or FOSS related, and got downvoted.

I have an IRL friend who went back to Reddit in large parts because of stuff like this. It’s pretty bad.

And I say all this as an open source developer

Welcome to Lemmy where having an opinion even slightly different from the open source/Linux fanboys grants you downvotes to oblivion, no questions asked 🙃

Haven’t seen the film yet but I was agreeing with them until the very last part.

There’s some great arguments against these Disney soft reboots that tell the same story as the original films, but throwing all the previous sequels under the same bus as Romulus seems nonsensical to me.

Thank you for reminding me that I am indeed old

I’m mainly talking about Drive and Pass. I don’t really remember as it’s been a while since I’ve tested them, but the situation doesn’t seem to have changed. Here’s a good thread for Drive. I remember Pass having problems with auto-fill which made it unusable for me.

I have Proton Unlimited but only use two of their services because of this, it’s pretty frustrating.

I love Proton’s mission just like all Lemmy users but I wouldn’t say you can trust them in terms of quality. Apart from Proton Mail and Proton VPN, most of their other products unfortunately have a deep lack of features.

Props for taking feedback into account and making it look less like The Long Dark compared to last time. I like the new banner and logo!

Meanwhile, you’ve been able to use ad blockers on Safari for iOS for years and years. Once the EU forces Apple to let developers publish actual other browsers on the App Store (and not just reskinned Safari), iOS should be pretty great in terms of browsing liberty & comfort.

« Don’t be evil »

😬😬😬😬

Yeah! I like this idea. Not sure how feasible it is but I’d sure like to see some billionaire at least try it.

Main problem with this I think is who would get to drive them? Because they need to be driven at least a little to keep their shape and to make sense. Not all people could drive them because they need to be driven carefully, which most people can’t do (brand new track day cars are famously beaten up even after a few years, not exactly the same context but something to keep in mind).

What would you rather do with all these old classic cars that require a great amount of money to keep running, then?

Is it really wasteful though? Especially if they’re classic cars, it’s not like the money is thrown out the window. The value is still here, just in car form instead of stock/bank account form.

Now vain on the other hand…

As a dog owner myself, I dislike most other dog owners with passion

Oooh. I read this just after waking up and thought it was some kind of Latin saying I had never heard lmao

Love dholes! And it’s even card 69, nice.

They also make super cute bird like sounds when they’re hunting.

« Have compassion for people with shy or reactive dogs. »

Yup, this hits the nail on the head for me. I’ve had my dog for five years now and I’m still not at peace with the fact that he’s reactive. Every day is a struggle, especially as someone who already had depression.

It’s already plenty hard enough without judgy remarks from people who have no idea what they’re taking about.

I do try it from time to time. My last try was with a Pixel 7 and although I loved Material You on it, my main issue was that the quality of apps wasn’t great and most just didn’t feel nice to use (even Google’s own apps feel better to use on iOS).

Didn’t help that the Pixel 7 was way too big and I couldn’t get used to that either, among a few other problems.

I think (hope) it’s sarcasm

Oh how I’d love to see one of these for my country (France). I bet it would mostly be Golfs and Polos, Seat Ibizas, BMW Series 1 and Audi A3s here.

I used to love playing Infinity Blade back in the day, but it was another time and they were games built from the ground up for touch screens so it’s not really comparable

You can use a controller and it works great, but at this point I bet you’d rather use a larger device. It does make a lot more sense on iPads though

And yet it was by far the episode I enjoyed the most since Church on Ruby Road. The script has some glaring issues for sure, some of which might be fixed in the next season (I don’t believe in that too much though), but at least it mostly felt like I was watching Doctor Who for once.

I think the running around, good music and pacing, some interesting character moments and great visual effects did it for me. Sutekh’s design and vibe are fantastic and I thought the scene where Ruby meets her mom itself worked really well.

If the rest of the season was more like this episode, I would have enjoyed it a whole lot more.

Their latest announcements are interesting because they say some of their privacy claims will be verifiable by independent firms (mainly when it comes to their custom built AI servers iirc). Is this actually worth something or is it just marketing fluff?

In ten years all phones will be crabs

Just buy used. You get all the goodies without supporting their shitty practices, while not even having to deal with the ethics of piracy. It’s all win.

One lab or one beagle sure could!

This seems like such an oddly specific adaptation, but you’re right, especially the fact that it happened twice makes it a lot more believable

Cobras probably existed looong before any ape did, so that sounds unlikely!

I feel like people will still be saying this in ten years (sadly)

Probably next month or next October

Same thing with my 2018 iPad Pro honestly. More ram and a better display? Maybe, but other than that it’s completely software limited

I feel like the spinning hard drive is part of the charm though! But I’d be keen to do some of the other mods like USB C, Taptic Engine, bigger battery or custom OS, this is all so cool

This is what I had read about the iPhone 13 one too and I was ready to jump on the hate train, but I’m pretty pleased with mine (got it for free when I bought my phone). I’ve been using it for around six months and it’s looking the exact same as it did at the beginning

Seeing Apple admit a fail is always such a treat. Hope the replacement will be even better than the last leather case!
