But if you block ads on Facebook, then what will you read? When I accidentally go to my profile, it’s a post from someone I actually follow for every 20 sponsored posts. It’s a website to watch ads, then every once of a while your ad viewing session is interrupted by some real content
More like: Google gave developers an automatic “checkbox” tick way to block grapheneos users and everyone that doesn’t have a goggle play licensed firmware
Assholes
some of the reasons why it’s not a native app:
They paid 53 bil for something that has only 300 mil /year in profits?
A 200 year ROI (interest on the 20 bil loan for the leveraged buyout that ea itself will need to pay) doesn’t seems too bad
If the “native” Windows app it’s running on a dedicated browser and coded with web tech, it’s still a web app even if it’s an .exe
Did you know that Picasa could still group people by facial recognition in windows XP with 1 gb of ram in TOTAL? (Clarifying: 1gb to the whole system, not only a single app)
And are you sure that the indexing is running locally? Because it’s called “onedrive photos”, not “windows photos”, so they can totally do the indexing on the cloud.
Wow, that’s how it managed to find “malware” (not actual malware) in a password protected rar that I shared
Unlike traditional web apps, OneDrive Photos is actually quite well built. It has a Windows 11-like Acrylic design for the context menu and does not take up a huge amount of resources, as RAM usage stays under 1GB
Excuse me, a photo gallery that takes 1gb of RAM, especially in this economy, doesn’t seem “quite well built”.
This fucking web app wrappers, Picasa had 100x more features while using 50x less resources
I don’t understand this, the employees are few and the pr fallout + fighting this is much more expensive than just agreeing to what they demand
Plus it’s a foundation and shouldn’t have profit
photorealistic image of a nuke plan
“Photorealistic”. It seems a screenshot from SimCity 4
Same for the fake trump statue
Maybe the hallucinated text nearby the white house has a bit of truth? It says “The Whine House [something in Cyrillic] pederast”
And also the fake crater nearby the hospital in Gaza is blatantly fake: IRL there’s only the crater instead of the hospital as unfortunately all the patients and doctors were terrorists
No no but Logitech boss is protecting the rest of the world, eh. He’s doing it for you, not for increasing the profits
How many people are going to open up their own mouse, take out the battery, put in a new one because the battery ran old? […] Mouse switches means you have to open up the whole mouse, and you’re most likely going to break something […] I don’t want to like, sell you a part just for you to screw it up and then be sad about it
Flexible / folding displays are not covered
So that’s why after almost a decade, only now Apple is ready to launch their foldable
Wow that automatic installer check is really shitty from Google, I wonder why I never saw outrage about that, it will close access to most apps in degoogled operating systems
How considerate, after you watch the ad, they leave a new button on the dashboard, so you can watch the ad again and again
In the last forced update they managed to even make it worse, with a useless sidebar “connect to your phone and see notifications here, because reasons” and then removed recent files/applications to show a worse copy of iOS automatic category group, where windows tries and successfully fails to group the apps in some random group. It’s an ugly mess
Can’t even uninstall it, you click uninstall and it just opens appwiz.cpl but it’s not in the list
I’m doing a #psblackout since I was born but it didn’t change anything
I don’t like the genre but from the trailer it seems very interesting, good job 👍🏻
If I don’t like it and there’s no way to tell them to never show me irrelevant shit, then, while not technically an ad, it’s practically an ad
