You can just turn off receiving all messages from any user. This is specifically for people who told their friends that they don’t want to listen to voice messages and want texts, but friends still use voices. Every one I know has a friend like that.
For a long time it was ran on money that Durov made from VK and it’s selling deal and had no ads, almost perfect development. It was a ton of money obviously, but we all knew it would run out sooner or later and then everything would change. I bought premium once because I wanted to support the project, and I still use it. Hopefully I won’t have to use anything else, because I hate almost any other messenger.
Edit: forgot “would”
Yeah, but Teams in Office? Is that really the main problem?
And it’s dirt cheap
Before the war in Ukraine I had stable 1 Gbit/s for 5$/month with two dedicated IPs
Here in Ireland you get 100 Kbits/s sometimes because they can’t pull you a fiber connection and 4G towers are overloaded to hell, and it costs 20-40€/month
That’s the point, DRM would force everyone to use a “compliant” browser (Chrome, or extension-free Firefox etc), and the other browsers might not be able to show content; they may also lock the content from copying and editing without special tools, just like website video DRM works now
But we already see “sorry you’re running adblocker so no content for you” websites, so I’m not sure if that’s gonna change much
People used to call me little Einstein, next Bill Gates and next Elon Musk (eww lmao) many times because of my ideas. Many of them may be revolutionary, but I can’t even start working on them because I feel like my day is 5 minutes long… I feel severely disabled by ADHD
I would rather use Snap than Docker
Fuck Docker and their bullshit pricing schemes
It very highly depends on the application
For something used daily that’s more or less true
For something that needs very complex configuration like specific ffmpeg transcoding rules and cmake build files - you’d have menus that are 5-10 pages long and full of super detailed selections and forms, while in reality you’d only want to switch on or off one thing, so it would be easier just to write the command
When I made my small game engine I had a second window full of settings that I could change dymamicaly. After like 2 months of work it was so full of settings it was very hard to navigate even with all subdivisions and layouts properly made
Also, GUI apps often lack specific or new settings for the terminal app they’re built on
That’s pretty cool, I like watching GT endurance races, but I gueas no invite no play
Funnily enough, they still make them, both on steaming platforms and on CDs, swear to god there’s one on my nearest Tesco’s shelf
What’s on Racing4Everyone? Steams/videos of motorsports events? Racing games?
Of course, but many, many companies never leave that state in the age where the biggest investment strategy is dumping hella cash into a startup in hopes that it overtakes (monopolizes) the industry but may never be profitable. And many people thought that Tesla would never be profitable, it sure looked like it for a very long time.
If I recall correctly, Tesla was actually cash-negavite for like half a decade after Musk bought it, surviving off investors and SpaceX’s success, I remember it was very big news when it finaly went cash-positive and subs like WSB were all over r/all
Most probably not, at least in my programs I’ve never made a flag, because my delays are usually no more than 3 seconds anyway
Oranges aren’t a natural fruit - they are a human-made mix of mandarin and pomello
I’m pretty sure it’s either a myth (that it doesn’t work) or some US-centric thing, because when I worked as a delivery guy, I used to go through probably hundreds of different elevators in high-density residential buildings, and most of them have doors that stay open very long to allow baby strollers and heavy appliances to be placed inside, and on pretty much all of these the door closing button works, immediately closing the door
This is what I and many other programmers have done (not the removal, but fake delays), because it improves user experience, actually:
1.When the user clicks a button that should take long in their mind (like uncompressing a zip file etc) but is actually fast, it might seem like something is wrong and it didn’t work
2.When the user transitions between layouts of the application, if it loads everything too fast it will look too abrupt, a fake delay will be made here if a transition animation is not possible/doesn’t fit

Weird, all the sanitizers I’ve seen have a big ass label that says “non-alcohol” on them, both sprayed and gel-like
Same, I don’t want stickers, emojis, gifs. My phone and 4G connection really don’t like them but there’s no way to switch them off
