Convenience store employees are unlikely to see it that way lol.

In case you’re curious, the drinking age in Quebec is, in fact, 18.
Wow that’s a 404 for me. Looks like maybe the lemmy.world instance has made that choice for me.
Thank god I’m protected! I would have to create a new account on another instance to lose that protection, which is, uh, good, because…
Anyway I forgot what I was saying.
You know, it’s not always, but apple does sell things that are price-competitive with similarly performing competing products.
Some iterations of the Mac Mini have been hard to beat with a tiny PC with similar performance.
The M1 MacBooks had some surprisingly cheap options for the relatively premium laptops they were.
Samsung’s Ultra phones tend to cost more or less the same as the Apple Pro Max phones.
The main difference is sometimes just that Apple doesn’t make low-end or low-mid-range, or sometimes not even anything below “relatively high-end”, products in a particular category.
It must have been over 5 years ago. It turned me off. The culture there was so painful. People would refuse to answer a question just because they deemed the premise of your question unacceptable. Or even recommend you change your whole project’s language.
It was like that both in questions and in chat. I never tried again.
I wish you were wrong. But…
A Climate Town video convinced me natural gas actually manages to be worse.
Natural gas is methane, and it’s extremely hard to handle that without having any leaks, ever. And since methane is a very powerful greenhouse gas, it doesn’t take that much leaked gas to cross the line into “worse than coal”.
And there are lots of leaks.
I mean it was hardly news to begin with.
My company used to allow it, but then it became clear people were doing too many dumb things with their work computers to control them normally. For example, some people would explicitly turn their PCs off without updating the OS every Friday and were nearly a year out of date.
That, plus other security concerns I don’t remember surrounding the tightening of our policies for security certifications required to net a very demanding client, made it so that we needed to institute mobile device management (MDM) for everything.
We went with Microsoft’s version because there were some crucial things I forgot that only it could do. But it didn’t support Linux.
So our few people using Linux had to choose between Windows and Mac OS.
Wait they’re still adding natural gas? Geez.
Wow, even worse than the pictures that are already super ugly? Yeesh.
Hmm, but then we’re outwardly dissing it and we can’t confidently put it in serious reporting.
And aren’t technically respectful disses the best?
I also like Xitter, because in my head that can only be pronounced Shitter, which is a good name for it.
Oh I see. Well if it has exactly the same API, if that API also has weird legacy stuff built in that hinder developers, then maybe not, but overall that does sound very similar, yes!
Yeah, that makes sense. If it’s starting to bite them in the butt, though, maybe they should start relegating that stuff to emulation, if they can write a good enough emulator.
I don’t know when. Maybe it’s already gone by, maybe it’s in the future. But there’s probably a point in time when all of that backward compatibility stops being worth it.
I don’t understand
While I haven’t diven into their codebase, that kind of thing tends to severely limit what developers can do to improve the product, slow them down, etc.
Be it new features, deeper UX improvements, performance optimizations… Basically anything you want to do with your progress, generally speaking, it’s going to get harder the more legacy stuff you need to deal with.
Why the hell did we ever privatize train tracks…
Not really on topic but wait just a gosh darn second.
This person is playing and reviewing (what might be called) the prettiest, most demanding game ever made, and they’re doing it on a Steam Deck, on Low?
But still, the visuals are the main thing they praise about it?
I’m a bit surprised? Confused? Anyway that’s a little weird.
I don’t understand
