Ah, they’re all crap.

Came to Teams from Slack, some upsides, some downsides. It’s a corporate communication tool, I don’t use it because I think it’s beautiful and elegant, I use it because I get paid money to use it.

Wine is acceptable, but only after you punched them, disavowed their identity, intentionally withheld education from them, made them carry their teenage pregnancy to term and ruined the planet for them. Then you can have wine. Be more republican!

Awww, it’s trying its best!

Fully agreed! And while we’re at it, get rid of Power Pivot!

I mean it makes sense to target these people. If you’re stupid enough to believe the shit Musk or Trump spout, you’re also stupid enough to not see these very obvious scams.

I mean there’s probably a lot who don’t, but they’re busy firing missiles at civilians in Ukraine to get around their 15y work camp sentence.

I was able to do it myself! the cost of running a Lemmy and Mastodon instance for myself is so cheap… I’m actually shocked more people aren’t doing it!

I mean what for? It costs even less to use an existing Lemmy or Mastodon server given the minimal load you add.

I thought that was the - clever - point to make. :P

is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux

Average GNU, can’t even tell a division slash / from an addition plus +.

I don’t get it.

How is that a problem to people wanting to work on or work with Bitwarden? Or am I misunderstanding the wording on it?

It just seems to say that you cannot rip this SDK out to use it on something else. Which makes sense as far as an internal library goes, at least on the surface?

By all modern shithead alt-righters, Skyrim is “ultra woke”: It promotes ultimate equality and the ability to be anything you want to be, and freely become someone else later.

Or maaaaaybe people who use “woke” unironically just lack the brain capacity to comprehend even a game like Skyrim. 🤷

Both. I use YT on Firefox constantly, and I just explicitly tried again with a swapped user agent, and there’s no issues at all, works perfectly as expected. I saw from your other reply that you use a fairly involved and heavily modifying expansion, not just a user agent switcher.

If you try to “harden” your FF, always keep in mind that a large portion of that means absolutely breaking things left and right and center. It might work, but always expect it will not. Because it’s just not something anybody would ever test for when creating web pages. So you’re running essentially unknown scenarios. It might be interesting input to the extension-author that this breaks, though. It might be something they think they got working. Of course, it could also be that it’s “Yeah that happens, it’s intentional”. But might as well report it to them.

So you don’t use Firefox, you mess with Firefox. That’s on you then. Devs can’t be held responsible for you intentionally breaking things. Only do what you know works.

It works fine?

Yeah, we were also once happy.

And then we started using Jira.

RIP

It’s… okay?

In fact no, it’s by-far the best Google Maps alternative I’ve used so far, this clears OsmAnd+ easily. However, it still has quite a way to go. I can see why it’s awesome for hiking, but this has some interesting side effects.

For example, I noticed right away that it cannot search for specific places in non-downloaded maps. This might seem like a “duh”, but the maps around here seem extremely fine-grained, so I need to first search for the town, then download the map, then search for the street and address, then I can navigate. Oh no wait I cannot, I need to also download maps for all places in-between.

This makes complete sense for hiking, where I’m confined to a - comparatively - small area and want to pre-download this, at all times, always. And also don’t really “search” for a specific address to route to beforehand, rather for a general area and then just get the map.

And of course, the quality of navigation is… adventurous. But I expected that, that’s just something GMaps has a huge starting advantage at, and this clears what OsmAnd+ does and honestly feels better than Apple Maps, too. Though that’s maybe not high praise, as in this area of the world Apple Maps is like getting lost only you use a smartphoen to do it.
Still, it’s the second best I’ve seen. And for an open source app, that’s an insane feat.

Hugely impressed, TY OP. Never heard of this before.

And then in the web app, you need to do this complicated hold-LMB-then-select-from-list to select something, making just browsing really difficult.

Or is there a better way of doing that? I lack a good way to just browse Openstreetmap.

That’s a good point actually, if it’s not paid-for, then assuming it’s accurate it’s actually a better way of describing to a driver what to do.

I remember a fair few years ago, when Google Maps was already a thing but smart phones were not, we were bewildered at how helpful this thing for printed Google Maps instructions was where it prints a little photograph of each turn you need to do, how it will look to you when you get there. This was the best feature ever, as it made it so easy for your second person checking the route to know when to actually take a turn or not.

They already have. Have you noticed the number of ads shown on google maps?

No? I’ve never seen any ads on Google Maps, though this might be a local thing. I suspect this is different in the US where “consumer rights” gets you a fine for speaking such communist propaganda?

What impetus would most people have to mentally even start considering replacing Google Maps?

Much like with making people switch to Firefox as a browser, the first step to a tech user is understanding that to most non-tech users, the concept of thinking about a browser choice makes no sense, as their goal is to open a web page, and the specifics between now and the web page being opened are irrelevant. It’s equivalent to making non-DIY people care about the specifics of the brand of the hammer at home, it’s not like they couldn’t, but the very idea of doing that would usually leave them looking at you bewildered, as it feels arcane to invest brain time into a tool this simplistic and invisible.
