I want a case that slides a keyboard out from the bottom of my horizontal iPhone so bad.

conciselyverbose,

I hate this. I'd be perfectly fine with network bullshit if it was a universal standardized profile so it actually worked (and I could build a programmable physical remote for it) . But the App Store is flooded with "android TV remotes" that maybe support one specific obscure (unlabeled) TV. I've never found one that works for anything I've owned.

conciselyverbose,

I just don't consider any of that an answer to the question. For the most part, nobody is expecting every individual ingredient of a meal to be made from the raw ingredients (I don't actually think sauce is a lot of hands on work, but I don't usually bother to make it either). While I have a pasta maker and love fresh homemade pasta, if I make a lasagna from store bought noodles, jarred sauce, and store bought ricotta, nobody is going to yell at me for calling it homemade. The version with fresh pasta, homemade sauce, and homemade ricotta is going to be better (OK, I haven't done ricotta so I might make it gross), but the first one still counts.

If it's malicious, it's not penetration testing. It's just malicious.

conciselyverbose,

It's not intended as a drop in replacement.

Backwards compatibility forever sounds great, but the technical debt eventually becomes a giant fucking limitation on improvement. They chose not to stay backwards compatible for a reason.

conciselyverbose,

I'm saying they are probably being charged some portion of website sales specifically by the vendor of the web service provider. Which realistically makes sense, because regular online retail already almost always takes a percentage and there are significantly stronger regulatory requirements around anything medical.

conciselyverbose,

It probably is costing them more because they're paying some obscene license to a third party for the online software.

conciselyverbose,

They already fucking do.

They just pretend pre-roll trailers aren't ads.

conciselyverbose, (edited )

As far as I'm concerned skippable ads are the same thing as any other ad. I use auto play for a reason and it's because I don't want to fuck with the remote every episode.

conciselyverbose,

By far the most offensive part of this complete and utter shit post.

conciselyverbose,

I listen to a constant stream of audiobooks when I drive (and the rest of the time).

conciselyverbose,

Throw a couple Apple shares in a college fund for me.

conciselyverbose,

I got an axe throwing game (plastic axes, so reasonably safe, but surprisingly fun). I would rather the axes weigh a little more, but as is it means it can be put out with other lawn games when families come over without being nervous about kids.

    The person you're complaining about made a perfectly reasonable and accurate post.

    Correcting clearly false information isn't "gatekeeping", and even if he had been an asshole about it, you pretty clearly don't know what gate keeping means.

    What are your best air fryer/oven recipes?

    My parents got me one of them fancy countertop air fryer/oven things and idk what to cook first when I get it set up. According to the box, it does everything a normal oven does as well as air fries. It can hold two whole chickens or 1 frozen pizza. It came with a rack for things like toast and a baking sheet. I also have a...

    conciselyverbose,

    It does a way better job at most frozen food and leftovers than a microwave does, but takes longer.

    Almost anything you'd deep fry can be lightly spritzed with oil and done in an air fryer instead.

    If it's big enough for a pizza, you can make one from scratch instead of frozen. It's cheaper than anything but the cheapest frozen crap and a lot better.

    conciselyverbose,

    It does feel like a pretty long shot, but you've done all the common sense stuff and are into the weeds, so why not throw wild guesses around?

    conciselyverbose,

    What if the battery is doing something hinky enough to cause very minor interference and the internal cable is close enough to be affected by it? I'm not super familiar with the low level details of battery tech but I think it could theoretically be possible (though obviously would be stupid rare).

    conciselyverbose,

    lol now I want to know what meme he's so mad about.

    conciselyverbose,

    All memes are dumb. They're supposed to be.

    I'm talking about being offended by that.

    conciselyverbose,

    That's dumb as hell.

    conciselyverbose,

    Excluding some of the smaller point and shoots, which are still more volume than most phones, DSLRs and Mirrorless cameras are way bigger than phones for a reason. It's because that's what it takes to take actual high quality pictures without cheating heavily with processing.

    conciselyverbose,

    I really doubt that. Computational photography is only as good as it is because of how heavily it processes all sorts of data that can't make it into the jpeg that gets spit out.

    I would love to see what an Apple camera with the hardware they leverage on iPhone, but a full frame sensor and real lens could do, because what they manage to pull out of the trash ass input is impressive. But it's already processed to absolute hell. There's nothing left for further passes to pull out.

    conciselyverbose,

    Panache is flair. It's a certain sort of showy style in how you act.

    Charisma is habitually making people like you.

    conciselyverbose,

    So, on my (Android) ereader, I use einkbro which is a browser that will save pages to epub, then can be used and organized with most reader software. You can also combine multiple web pages as chapters to the same book pretty trivially.

    I don't have a suggestion that perfectly fits your question as asked, but figured I'd suggest it anyways because it serves a relatively similar goal for me.

    conciselyverbose,

    Obligatory "check your library". It isn't "literally anything ever published any time" like piracy is close to, but in a lot of places (at least in the US), there's a pretty meaningful selection of content you can borrow perfectly legally.
