I feel the same about youtube. I pay for premium, but sometimes creators bake in their own ads. I wish youtube would pay creators enough so they wouldn’t have to do it.

You also support big tech by giving them traffic and watching the ads. The only way to not support them is to not use it.

Podcast ads are easy to skip. Still, i pay subscription to my favourite podcast network to support them, and it’s more convenient not having to skip.

Tons of legacy code that has to run at startup.

That’s not an error, it’s a warning. It shouldn’t break anything…

Who buys a toilet you can only flush with an app??

It’s like saying list.isEmpty() over list.getLength() == 0 is a picky optimisation.

There’s a developer out there who coded this and they obviously don’t know what they’re doing. One day they’re gonna iterate all rows in the database to check if it’s empty. You have to flag these issues early and teach the newbies.

I only had a problem with it once, but having no experience with it really confused me.

That Explains why those roads don’t exist

I love my 9 pro! The size is perfect, and i didn’t have to sacrifice on camera this time.

Pixel 9 yes, but Pixel 7 didn’t have the telephoto camera that 7pro had.

In my experience smb support on Linux is even worse than on Android. I can’t watch a video from my NAS on a Linux laptop, but I can on my android phone or TV.

I know NFS exists but it’s too confusing for me, particularly authentication.

If you’re buying on ebay and use PayPal, PayPal provides the consumer protection. That’s been my experience anyway.

No, i wouldn’t like to be a center of attention.

It’s easier to flip the switch to turn it back on than to fumble with the plug. You can get a variant without the switches if you don’t like, or simply leave the switch always on.

It is, but they’re not allowed to talk about it. Social credit.
