No, I’m not paying for that

The money goes only to the seller, not to the cracker that worked hard just for the glory

I wouldn’t use those features even if they were available for everyone.

Why the hell do you need a pip window to watch a 30 seconds video while you do something else?

Why would you let the app automatically download garbage shorts that the algorithm decided that you are going to like

For me it was annoying enough to switch to android. I really felt like I had to use iCloud, forced through my throat. I have ocd and a red dot means “I need to open this app immediately RIGHT NOW to clear it” - and then your can’t clear it until you subscribe

it’s a dark pattern deliberately chosen to let people get annoyed and pay for icloud. On windows people instead will accidentally fill their onedrive account and that’s it. They won’t even know that they’re using it. It might send some scary emails like “your cloud backup is full!!!11 you gonna lose everything!!111” but those go directly in spam. Error messages in windows for regular users appear like “����� �������� �����������” - their eyes don’t have the right encoding to understand the message, so they just click OK and dismiss it. Instead, the red dot is prominent in the home screen of every iphone and bother also those that don’t read the error messages…

They never reinstalled OneDrive after an update… yet

(I hate how I have to uninstall useless shit after updates)

Yes, it doesn’t get re enabled but I totally hate that annoying red dot on settings if you don’t set iCloud

Isn’t apple doing the same?

Designed to fill the 5gb immediately so you’re going to buy more cloud space immediately

When I had an iPhone, there was an annoying red dot on the settings icon “warning, you didn’t enable cloud backups for photos”, and if you enabled it become an annoying red dot “warning you ran out of iCloud space”

so they prefer that users use adblockers?

Well, first there are a million active forks.

Second, it’s literally useless. It just shows your PC specs so when you screenshot and share it online people can know that you could afford that specific hardware. E-penis 2.0

never heard about stcp nor i see something called like that in their github repository

Does it have authentication?

For safety i’d add an additional layer of authentication. Easy way: cloudflare access + cloudflare tunnel; hard mode: authelia + a reverse proxy

I don’t get this kind of people.

People are not robots. Workers after 8 hours are definitely less productive and more distracted. Since anyway you’re going to pay by the hour (right? You are going to pay the extra hours, right?) isn’t better to pay a different shift? Then your office has always fresh people with happier morale and not zombies that are just waiting to go home after 12 hours of slave work

Problem is that setting wg is nowhere as user friendly as just the single click of tailscale

It’s not comparable. Tailscale creates a virtual network between your devices allowing to reach your server outside your home while other mentioned services create a virtual network to someone else’s server

While RDP (exclusive to pro) is useful, why you use that for sharing files? Isn’t better to use SMB (available on home)? It should be faster as you wouldn’t need to connect to the whole desktop and use the tiny windows UI to choose the files one by one. Also RDP apps on iOS have full phone access? Seems weird that Apple could approve that, even on Android don’t have that, only a sandboxed folder

of course. We, the 1% of technical people on lemmy, we know it. General people only know that apple innovates first, the rest are bad copycats. In general, everything becomes incredibly popular only after apple implements it.

Emoji, nfc payments, third party keyboard, copy and paste, widgets, internet browsers that aren’t a skin of the system browser, wireless charging, 4k video recording it’s all stuff that come to android years or decaded before apple, yet the average people is always thinking that apple is first

yes but for general people is apple that innovated first, the others are bad imitations

Software solutions: streamfab or any stream (RIP)

Hardware solution: a $5 HDMI splitter from AliExpress to remove hdcp (it must be no name chinese AliExpress stuff, branded splitters won’t remove hdcp) + HDMI capture card

Where’s the selfhosting in something that is server-side proprietary code?

so:

• car dealers don’t want to sell EVs, you need to push them otherwise they’ll try to sell an ICE model
• car makers have collectively decided that EV = luxury vehicle that must be sold at least for 45k
• car makers don’t really want to make EVs - when the government they introduce a tax subsidy, they increase the price by that exact amount (VW Up for example, they decided that it could be never to sold 5k over the ICE model - when the government increased the subsidy, VW increased the price, and when the subsidy rose to 13k they discontinued the model as it would cannibalize sales of other models)
• charge point operators just want to get the european funds to install chargers, but then they’re going to neglect any kind of maintenance, to the point that for enelx fast chargers it’s the norm to find them broken or out of service and the exception when they work as intended.
• charge point operators also don’t really want to sell electricity, so they set a 2000% markup. Paying electricity for 1 euro per kwh it’s like paying gas at 3 euro per liter
• charge point operators have collectively decided that in order to pay for the charge, customers must use the most user-unfriendly process as possible. Can’t just accept credit card at the POS with lower fees, no, must register on the proprietary app, search for the charger on the map that almost always requires google play services, find it, guess which of the 8 pins on the map is the right one, hope that unlocks, and so on.

it’s almost a miracle that you can see people driving an EV in italy

I wish phones had a standard bootloader that allows to run a standard os that doesn’t require custom images

“Apt get” and you get patched forever instead of having to buy a new phone every few years or placing all the trust on the stranger that compiles the image of your custom ROM
