Sure. That’s exactly why small businesses thrive in democrat cities, right? And exactly why more small business popped up under Biden, right?

Gimme a break. People are so blind and dumb.

You reminded me to check out the portal again when I signed up months ago! I’ll be testing the beta a lot in the next week since I now have to go into the office 5 days a week. Can’t wait to give the next beta a full try!

They’re around a big city, so the Seattle metro is about $76k. Still great for the valve employees though.

Braided cables are just higher quality imo because they can’t tangle easily and take a lot of effort to bend.

$90 for a cable and it’s not even braided is wild to me.

Hops cover up shitty beer very easily. That’s a big part in it.

Even with a dozen microbreweries within a walk of my house, it’s over half IPAs. I love them, but my wife is sad about the lack of stouts. There’s a couple of good breweries with solid stouts, so it’s not too bad.

I moved to Seattle 2 years ago, and I’ve seen it ALL over the US. Mostly in gentrified neighborhoods or the college kid areas.

Check out how successful Dick’s is in Washington. They have so many locations now. Their first location was Wallingford, Seattle. It’s about a 1 mile walk from the U district, where a lot of the college kids hang out. Now, Dick’s has a location in most major districts of Seattle, mostly around bars, and even outside of Seattle. They are cheap ($2.50 for a cheeseburger) and super fast because they don’t do customizations with a limited menu. Mostly window only walk up pick up, no dine in (except for the one outside the hockey stadium, but it’s standing only).

You’ve got the right idea.

Huh? You can buy it from the app. Therefore they don’t care about the 30% fee. They’re doing this just to spite you and make it difficult to cancel.

I don’t understand what you’re getting at or trying to say. You’re not making sense.

Do you know how sandboxed file system storage works? Have you ever made an application? Do you think things that run on the cloud have access to everything else on the cloud? I’m not sure what you’re getting at.

Huh? I don’t give apps like YouTube access to my files. I don’t upload so they don’t need it. I don’t even think it has asked because I’m not clicking the upload button. YouTube doesn’t get access to my location either. It does have access to local connections because of YouTube on my TV, but that’s it.

Apple does not allow this out of the box. You have to confirm for every permission. There is not automatic access to files.

Huh? That’s just wrong.

youtube.com/watch?v=FOO&si=BAR would be shortened to just youtu.be/FOO?si=BAR

The link to other people’s account is in the &si=BAR part. Probably standing for “share ID” or “source ID”or something. The shortened link is just the same as the long one with watch?v=FOO being included in the URL instead of the parameters.

That is 100% wrong. Did you read the tweets or even look at a single YouTube URL?

Exactly. A website has to download ALL the HTML every time. Sure, it can put all that in a JavaScript file and cache it but it has to be built each time. With an app, you (the devs) get to choose what to load, and it’s just usually a few simple things each time instead of constantly running a script.

Using Lemmy as a web app really sucked. Having an actual app with actual integration to a robust UI works.

There are anti trust lawsuits going on with most the companies you listed though? Microsoft had one in the early tech days that they won, but there’s probably going to be another one soon…

Apple, Google, Amazon (by the FTC).

You can find anything offensive, but it doesn’t mean that social norms have to accept it. Do you take offense to being called your race? What about doctors using medical terminology to describe something like your muscles? These are the same things: descriptive words that were created without your input that you have no say in. It’s language, and it’s weird to get offended by a word being used in a non-inflammatory way.

Oooo. Thanks! I knew there was an internal one like that. I’ll check it out, and hopefully it works easily for uploading to fflogs.

Exactly. I have my setup just the way I like it for final fantasy. ACT (a packet capturing DPS meter) doesn’t work without windows. Once that’s supported I may hop ship.
