I did block entire hexbear and specific communities on ml. I just meant subjects in general.

As long as your sick to non political or historical communities, they are tolerable. Any deviation from above and you might as well be on hexbear.

You mean Elop? Ballmer was MS CEO when MS bought Nokia, but they were doing fairly well in the beginning. Fucking moron Nadella took over and killed Windows mobile. Despite publically admitting later that it was a mistake, he’s still a fucking moron.

N9 was perfect in every way except that it was abandoned. I miss that phone every day I use Android

Symbian was a fantastic OS, but it never competed with Android in any meaningful way. Nokia was already circling the drain when Microsoft bought them and first Windows phones (Lumias) were fucking awesome. And then fucking moron Nadella killed Windows Phone.

Small companies often allow devs access to prod DBs. It doesn’t change the fact that it’s a catastrophically stupid decision, but you often can’t do anything about it.

And of course, when they inevitably fuck up the blame will be on the IT team for not implementing necessary restrictions.

Frequent snapshots ftmfw.

I would not be surprised. I’ve done it many times including complicated setups with different databases as replica slaves.

I’m now seeing a lot of new projects that don’t care much about DB backend since the library they use to wrap sql calls obscures all that stuff anyway, but I promise you mysql to Maria is a much more common and straightforward transition than to postgresql.

Huh? Postgresql is not mysql compatible. Mariadb is very popular in a ton of businesses around the world as a not stupidly expensive sql database with great support.

I agree, but some cities are just not compatible with public transport. Busses in LA fit 2 bicycles. How do you cover the final mile (which could be as far as 2.5 miles) in a city with mostly single family homes and lots of hills?

Impossible to compare Seoul to LA imho. Population density has its benefits like amazingly fast (fiber) internet connection, but accessibility of public transport isn’t one of them.

Either you have a really bizarre definition of relaxation or you’ve never taken public transport in a busy city during peak hours.

Even in Los Angeles, where public transport is barely used, everything is packed at peak times. And that’s a place where people regularly take showers. I dare you to enjoy the relaxing experience of a bus at peak times in August in a third world country like Russia.

I use cloudflare for DNS. Site opens just fine, but videos never play.

Does piped not work on mobile browsers? I’ve never been able to play a single video on Firefox on Android.

Using it on multiple servers and in small scale prod deployment. Works like a charm.

podman-compose is also usable although noticeably unfinished.

Same. Almost every single argument ends with personal insults. At least on reddit people tried to avoid those because karma was such a big deal. Here nobody cares so they shit on each other whenever they disagree.

Completely agree. There’s just more devs in Linux/FOSS environment than UI designers. Certainly more of them willing to donate their time.

I’m also on Connect. In what ways do you feel it is inferior to sync?

I’ll be honest I was a RiF user and have never heard of sync until recently, but it seems just like any other app for Lemmy. Nothing special about it.

I 100% don’t mind paid apps, but I’m only willing to pay for unique features that are useful to me. There’s nothing missing from FOSS apps that only exists on Sync imho.
