Why would somebody lie on the internet?

Yeah, and the one on Amazon is broken for years and no one cares.

There is: https://mycroftproject.com/
There you can just about anything to Firefox’s search providers.

While I don’t miss checking the index of my wall of Microsoft books (the light gray binders with the squishy plastic). At least those were (mostly¹) correct and ad free.

Then the future began and you got MSDN subscription on CD with sample code. Woohoo.

1. they included a somewhat 20 pages of erratas that you sooner or later managed to memorize or punch and put in the correct place.

And even those videos show how little they know.

They are fun to watch in a “kid goes wow at enterprise tech” kinda way.

I always thought: farm = inside (fence or barn), ranch = outside

Might be cheaper to buy the equipment at that point.

But seriously: That is not at all what the insurance pays. Prices are ridiculously inflated to give ridiculous discounts to greedy companies. Patients and Doctors get the short end of the stick.

That’s weird. I just logged into my ea account from 2012 after not touching it for 5 years and it appears everything is there. Adding a recovery mail just to be sure now. LOL, it’s so old it doesn’t even have a name and shows as a 25 digit ID on the website.

EDIT: dude below is right: GOG all the way.

I’ll ask Jeeves what that is. brb.

Brand new: https://grayjay.app/

Has downloads, dislikes, Youtube, Odysee, Rumble, Twitch, Kick, and more plugins, no ads, can cast to devices, offline subscriptions and was paid for by Louis Rossman. Out for a week now. Loving it so far. Just needs Sponsorblock and it will replace Newpipe+Sponsorblock for me. It’s open source but paid software.

We offer a way to pay for the app once. The app will function identically without paying.

works here

She’s not exactly known for being a smart person in Germany. Whoever thought she had what it takes to be a diplomat was clearly deluded. She only got the job as foreign minister because of proportional representation.

Only on kbin afaik. Lemmy-UI has no way to display it.

Keep in mind that anyone subscribing to ActivityPub events can see who voted for what and posted or edited. That’s how federation works.

It’s not comparable to a flagship phone. But considering the price I am still quite satisfied.

Only thing missing is the gyro for accurate tracking in AR stuff. I think the Doogee Pro versions with the fingerprint scanner have one. But they cost about twice as much.

I recently got a cheap Doogee X97 as a backup phone. It was pretty much AOSP except for the launcher and 2 extra apps. I was impressed by the value of the $60 phone. 16 GB flash was too little for me though. I handed it to a friend and got the sturdier, waterproof S51.
No holes in my screen, 5 days of daily use battery and 4GB/64GB + dual SIM + NFC + microSD + headphone jack for $100 is pretty sweet. Also OEM unlock is possible from the dev menu without extra steps. Firmware is available as a zip from their forums.

I think the only thing they make that is competent are their SSDs. Stay away from their batteries and phones. Also their “smart” TVs become slower and more ad infested with every update.
Never had any of their appliances, so can’t comment on those. The exploding washing machine story doesn’t inspire confidence though. My 80s Samsung AM/FM/cassette boom box is great though and still works.
