truly I must bow to your superior intellect. iphones have so many more features, like not being able to sideload apps, not being able to use a terminal or actual filesystem, not being able to install browsers that aren’t reskins of safari, not being able to use apps that would totally work on my device because Steve jobs thought they looked bad with a different screen size, and strawman arguments about what android was like 10 years ago. iOS is clearly superior and I’m gonna sell my phone today
Oh my gosh! All of those would be super helpful if I actually cared to use them! I don’t need my phone to be a mobile computer. That’s why I have a desktop!
I sideload apps like YouTube that has sponsor block and it also blocks ads, just so I can airplay it to my television. That’s all I need.
Some of us just like a simple device. I don’t need the rest of that. My god dude, it was a fucking joke because androids have always had these weird ass permission requests.
I hate Apple as much as the next guy, but I like the ecosystem. That’s all I need for my use case.
Get a grip, and relax. Take a fucking joke. The way you’re reacting is EXACTLY why I made the god damn joke in the first place. 🤯
The vast majority of the Android/iOS flamewar is pro Android on fedi (mostly Mastodon for me). I usually don’t bother but I thought my comment was at least sort of funny? oh well.
It was funny! These people act like THEIR way is the ONLY way. Not all of us want our phones to be mobile computers with full feature sets. I just want a simple device that has a very nice ecosystem where everything connects and works together 98% of the time. Apple sucks too, who would’ve thought.
Sort of. I don’t remember the specifics, but it used to be that some apps completely unrelated to phone calls had to request access to make phone calls because of some stuff they needed that Google only allowed them access to if they had the phone call permission.
I believe Google has since changed it so most of that stuff is now a separate permission not related to phone calls, so you don’t see it as often now. It can still happen with older apps, though.
At one point in a former life, I was one of the trainers for the incoming helpdesk technicians. One of the practical exams we put them through involved us doing creative things to fuck with their computers before they came to class, and then having them figure out what was wrong and how to fix it. Plugging the mouse from one computer into its neighbor’s USB port and vice versa was one of my favorite tricks. For whatever reason, it had a 100% success rate in effectively fucking with them.
Switch to wireless mice. Maybe Logitech Unifying. Then one day pull all the dongles out and put them in a bucket.
First person to figure out how to download and install the unifying software and re-pair their mouse without using it gets a bonus.
But most people nowadays are lost without mice so they’d probably cycle through all the dongles on the laptop plugged into the projector and all move their mice until they figure out which is whose.
Have an extremely angry upvote. I don’t even like raw fish and this pisses me off. And I’m also craving an eel roll. Anyone know a good sushi restaurant in Minneapolis?
My sister is a compulive lemon thief. Its the only thing I’ve ever seen her steal but if she sees a lemon tree she’s fuckin stealing a lemon. Its so funny watching this grown ass woman creep up on some fancy house and steal a lemon like some kind of citrus goblin.
As someone who also has an over-producing lemon tree I actually don’t mind people taking them. Like, what am I going to do with like 200 lemons? Leave them for the invasive possums to eat? They’re absolutely feral.
Aww, sweet little babies. I love possums and their goofy little Tim Burtonesque faces. We have a resident possum who trundles around our property at night. I give them pancakes when I can.
Edit: here’s the link to the full video of the baby possums in the GIF.
You might check out recipes for Indian lemon pickle. It’s a way of salt fermenting them that results in a spicy delicious condiment that can last for ages.
For simplicity, we will assume that the nipple is a positive Z axis integer with the head of a body positioned at positive Y. Any rotations would then fall on the X axis, in degrees, unless specified otherwise. This way, the rotation would be on a standard body rotation of left and right. Else one may have to take a photo with a rotated body in possibly an inverted position… Or I suppose simply rotating the camera, which is less entertaining.
