Brazilian here. Perfectly safe (color-wise; of course it can be polluted as hell despite its color, just like any other river).

Our ground/mud has a different color. Some areas on the south even have a red soil (very fertile, but makes everything about ground level look dirty very quickly): https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_soil

There's great variety of water colors even in the same area, just search for images "meeting of the waters Manaus":

confluence between the Black river of black water and the Solimões river of muddy water, where the waters of the two rivers run side by side without mixing

Syncthing.

Just configure it to only run while plugged to the wall, so you're not surprised by the rare bug of it randomly turning your phone into a pocket warmer.

People, shall we read the full article first?

Meanwhile, this is not the case with the Ryzen 9000 series desktop parts as the spec sheet of that says:

OS Support

Windows 11 - 64-Bit Edition , Windows 10 - 64-Bit Edition , RHEL x86 64-Bit , Ubuntu x86 64-Bit

So the new Ryzen AI chips that most people don't care about won't support Win 10, but Ryzen 9000 (the real deal desktop chips) will.

To be frank, the article title is misleading at best.

Facts: Game didn't break the charts on day one.

Media: Game is struggling on Steam.

Facts: That's not what the data say, in fact some games come out with a bang, others have a long...

Media: OmD, will Ninja Theory survive?!

Can't have a healthier gaming industry if this passes for news, specially with that headline.

5th paragraph in, so they can say they weren't doomsayers:

While the numbers don’t look great, there’s currently nothing to worry about with Hellblade 2.

Edit: added clarity that the post started with a "dialogue".

KeepassXC replied on that thread that it wasn't just the privacy problematic networking that was removed:

that bug report is bunk. He removed ALL features, not just networking. That includes yubikey support, auto-type and browser integration.

HeliBoard has been my chosen SwiftKey replacement: https://github.com/Helium314/HeliBoard

Features I value:

  • Multilingual typing (as someone who writes EN, PT and dabbles on DE and NL daily, having to check which language I'm on and switch keyboards/layouts every time sucks)
  • Glide typing (with optional closed source library)
  • Clipboard history
  • Comprehensive layout customization
  • Autocorrect (with customizable level of confidence)
  • Emoji selection and history

It does suck to see an app that I loved and paid for (yes, I used it for THAT long) get enshittified and try push AI* down my throat.

Not to mention M$ owning my typing history (which I kinda could live with).

RIP SwiftKey.

Technological feat aside:

Revolutionary heat dissipating coating effectively reduces temperatures by more than 10%

78.5C -> 70C = (78.5 - 70) / 78.5 = 0.1082 = 10% right?!

Well, not really. Celsius is an arbitrary temperature scale. The same values on Kelvin would be:

351.65K -> 343.15K = (351.65 - 343.15) / 351.65 = 0.0241 = 2% (???)

So that's why you shouldn't do % on temp changes. A more entertaining version: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vhkYcO1VxOk&t=374s

No fees when users choose to pay via Spotify (which had been the case and only option since the beginning, until User Choice Billing was implemented).

If users choose to pay with Google Play Billing, Google keeps 4%.

Even so, what I find hypocritical is that Spotify got this deal and seemingly agreed to keep it under wraps, without advocating for it to be extended to all other music streaming services in the platform.

Because... having a deal with the platform holder that gives it unfair advantage over the competition is exactly what they accuse Apple of doing with iOS.

This is the best summary I could come up with:

Appears to be a useful app, with a plaetora of features, but gathers your personal data, including voice, just to sell it to the highest bidder, all under the umbrella of an ads platform (which is also a very sketchy business).

Yup, sounds like a virus to me.
