119·6 months agoThere are more important things to get angry over. Getting angry over hats is just tribalism.

523·6 months agoJust 3 months ago Kojima was sporting „Make TV Great Again” hat with zero backlash. I think people look for ways to be outraged.
Please downvote this more to prove my point about pointless tribalism.

71·6 months agoPeople write code with LLMs. Programming language is just a language specialised at precise logic. That’s what „AI” is advertised to be good at. How can you do that an not the other?

What was the reason given for removing the post? You’re leaving out some important stuff which is a tell for shit stirrers.

World News@beehaw.org•Right-wing opposition candidate Nawrocki wins Polish presidential election
11·6 months agoPiS went through two different crises (pandemic, 2nd invasion of Ukraine) and did much better comparatively. Poland was barely touched by 2008 GFC and was lauded as island of economic growth but it was much worse time to live through because KO chose austerity rather than an actual state intervention. If we did what KO was calling for during the pandemic (rising interest rates to stem broken supply chain inflation shock) we’d be much worse.

World News@beehaw.org•Right-wing opposition candidate Nawrocki wins Polish presidential election
11·6 months agoFor all the talk of how uneducated and stupid a PiS voter must be, it looks increasingly like it’s the KO voters that seem to be uneducated in matters of economy, which ultimately is the most important thing, and very easy to judge based on your own conditions.
PiS made people’s lives better. Their rule coincided with extremely prosperous time for Poland and it’s not a fluke. Contrast that with „Tusk’s green island” from the 2008 GFC times when I worked for 3.5PLN/h with no healthcare, no paid days off and no pension. Am I dumb to prefer PiS to KO? At least these guys have economists that are not economic flat-earthers like Balcerowicz.

1·7 months agoIf you make money on YouTube you can afford iPhone Pro probably. You probably already have one for shooting quality video because what else is there at this budget?

Technology@beehaw.org•Apple's USB-C transition is a confusing mess (and that might be on purpose)
2·7 months agoGoing by number of features isn’t really a way to tell what’s premium. For me the bar is set really low which is not having ads, which most budget Android phones fail at.

3·7 months agoThey’ve just done this to create artificial value for the “Pro” models.
Correct. They found out professionals have money to afford premium hardware and software so you can charge them that. Perfectly reasonable way to make money, little competition in that space as opposed to general purpose budget stuff.

2·7 months agoI rarely take 128GB worth of photos at once so background iCloud sync is fast enough so that when I take a photo on my phone it’s visible on my Mac a minute or so after that.

5·7 months agoI’m sure we’ll find much evidence for hobbyists on Lemmy having different use cases from the general public but Apple wasn’t ever interested in supporting that niche at budget prices because there’s little money to be made there.
Regular person doesn’t need much offline storage because they download apps from the App Store, listen to music from a streaming service and sync photos to iCloud or Google Photos. Those people probably shouldn’t store their data offline either way because they won’t back it up properly. It’s another case of Apple treating general public like incompetent grannies but they’re kind of right about that.
