I really like Ente.
Disadvantages:
Advantages:
If you pay them, they host it for you: one copy on B2, one copy on wasabi and a backup on scale way.
If you don't pay them, you need to provide a S3 compatible endpoint for storage, a postgresql database and a coordinator. Doesn't need fancy stuff
never say never, i also assumed that sackboy would never be ported but they did it (2 years after the launch on ps5, of course)
astro bot on pc might increase sales of dualsense controller
I Hope for astrobot PC
I hate this scale, it says low battery and shuts off after just 3 months of sitting in the drawer. It infuriates me that there's still a lot of energy in the battery, I can use that in remote controls with no issues
If there's enough battery to say "low battery", then there's enough battery to show the measurements!
I saw a 3d printer using plastic pellets instead of filament.
Is this a good idea? Because I never saw anyone doing this.
Seller says "in this way it won't run out of filament" but I have the impression of imprecise extrusions (machine was fitted with a big 0.8mm nozzle)
Meanwhile, ai companies that are doing exactly the same are allowed to rack up billions in revenue.

Intro: Webtoon is an app/website where (mostly Korean) comics are released in short episodes. Those episodes aren't released all at once but usually once a week, you have a free unlock a day and if you want you can have more by either watching an ad or by paying with coins, that are paid with real money. With the smallest purchase ($6), an episode can be unlocked with 3 coins (¢35) up to 7 (¢80). You can also skip the wait by paying with coins. I used it for years and I was ok by watching the ads at the end of each episode. It limited myself to one a day, otherwise I would scroll for hours. But, at the end of June 2024, they did the IPO, so that means ✨enshittification✨
So the guide on how to push away users to piracy:
Have a scary reminder at the beginning of every episode that says that piracy is illegal. (I can't screenshot that without a rooted phone, it's blocked). This helps the user to have a daily notification that yes, this content is also available somewhere else and you're not bound to artificial limits.
Put the last three episodes of a series started 3-4 years ago in perpetual paywall. No more "just wait one week to get the new episode". You want to see how that 200 episodes story that you're reading almost every day for 3 years ends? LOL pay $6 to buy a coins package!
Now that the user is pissed that they can't know how the story ends, they'll just search it on the illegal sites, since over the past years they had to skip through 200 reminders that yes, this story is also available over there.
The content of this "important notification" is that to remind me that on January 18, 2025, they will delete the data of Google Currents, because they killed it. I even didn't know what that product was.
"Teens are dying on bikes" - it's because of a bike of it's because of a fucking truck that weighs like 300 bikes?
Can see easily that they are using reddit for training: "google it"
The verge is completely wrong in this headline.
They wrote "are now available to buy".
No. It's a Kickstarter that might ship next year. The headline should have been "Bike tires made from NASA’s bizarre shape-shifting metal might be available to buy next year if the crowdfunding campaign isn't a scam"
100% of the ads I see on Twitter today are dropshipping scams, while in the pre-musk era they were highly targeted to my job and interests to the point that if there wasn't the "ad" tag I couldn't distinguish that.
They can't cost the same for the advertiser, a generic dropshipping scam that targets everyone must be cheap
white text on yellow background, that's infuriating
removed? I feel it never had that, a century ago i wanted to copy contacts to sim when i had to send my htc dream with android 1.5 to repair, but it didn't have it, only import.
