Name and shame the brand!

This should be a Venn diagram with zero overlap, lol

Maplibre (https://maplibre.org/) offers a beautiful open source solution. There are affordable open source solutions for OSM base maps too (https://github.com/protomaps/basemaps), where you can host the whole thing as a single static file.

No one should be paying Google per API key :)

Be thankful you have a button and don’t need to navigate through 3 levels of touchscreen menus to get to the option.

True, but they were still resource constrained, which might be why they ended up with a model with lower resource requirements.

Uhh he should know all the Elite hackers call it Tracer-T

Remember this blast from the past?

Those mega corporations have intentionally misused the term “algorithm” which implies an unbiased method of ranking or sorting. What they are actually using is more like a human curated list of items to promote that supports their self serving goals.

There are public utilities in the US. And yes, they offer better service and lower costs than the competing private utilities.

I didn’t know about the benefits until I moved somewhere served by them. I think we would have more of them if people could see the benefits, but unfortunately the utilities you have access to are limited by where you live.

I don’t really find the Android notification system useful, as there are always a few apps that permanently place an icon in the tray. But I’m not really a mobile “power user” so I’m not the target market for these features.

Yup. I’m a web dev. Switched from testing first in Chome to testing first in Firefox a few months ago. And I had been Chrome first for probably 10 years prior. Some of our customers (enterprises) also started deploying/spec for FF by default in the past year.

Does this even meet the definition of a camera? This is not a projection of a scene that ever existed.

Thanks to stuff I learned about in the comments of previous posts on lemmy, I no longer see any YouTube ads. I’d say their plans are backfiring.

What’s worse, the parking or the broad generalizations in the comments here?

5.25 billion smartphone users, so they are paying about $5 per user. If you switch the default from Google, you are taking $5 from them!

It’s not so much the fake reviews, as the very honest and bluntly negative reviews. That gets in the way of Amazon making a cut off of sellers offloading useless crap onto their customers, and those are the reviews I think they will be purging.

If you login to the Gmail app on any device, it can also act as 2FA. Does not need to be the one where they send the push…any logged in device will work.

Now I believe it more than ever
