Honestly at first read, the paper feels like a bunch of whining text to prove a point the author believes in without any alternate proposal.

To stop infinite scroll on social media, quickly scroll 2-3 screen lengths down without looking at the posts. Now read the posts scrolling up. Eventually you'll reach where you started and most probably the laziness to go all the way back will prompt you to exit the app.

But no matter how you change it, the overall experience in Android is inconsistent and sub par. Little things like flickering between switching apps or janky animation when the keyboard shows up is what causes poor Android experience.

Customisability is the bane of clean and consistent UI.

I'm curious, do you wear the bag diagonally or vertically shoulder to waist. Also, what's your usual attire ?

Unfortunately, "these people" have to live in a world where you exist too and your conflicting attitude affect their lives.

Learn to live and let live, my friend. You cannot expect the world to accept you if you are not ready to accept them.

For example in forza, the game plays engine sounds based on how much we press the button. Are there different sequences of clips ? If yes how do they blend so well ? Or are they synthesized dynamically ?

There are so many parts to it as well - when the gear shifts, when you suddenly slow down at high speed, when you suddenly accelerate from stop. They all seem very realistic.

Edit: Thanks for the great answers everyone 🙏

Isn't web scraping copying ?

 

For me it is when companies/services market themselves as donating to XYZ cause if I buy their product. If they want to donate, they should have already done that with the money they have. Asking me to give them profit so that they can donate is so obviously pretentious.

Product placements in it are terrible too

"Drake's coffee cakes ..."

The show has brought a lot of cringey memories to my life 🤢

Ok. I see now, you are just talking crap with intentional misinterpretation just for the sake of argument.

I'm glad that you understood my point though, otherwise you won't take this stupid tangent. Try to apply it in life.

This is my last comment on this. Have a nice day.

You are assuming my ethnicity wrong, but I'll go with it.

If I go to a restaurant where they specifically say it is disrespectful to eat something in a certain way, I would respect that. Or if I don't agree with it, I won't have food at their restaurant.

But I won't go to the restaurant just to prove their way of eating is wrong. That is where your dumb attitude comes in. You are basically the equivalent of wearing clown clothes to a funeral just because you don't agree with the etiquettes.

Learn to live among people, or live in your hole.

 

And yes you have to spend it all

Edit: There are a lot of little good things in these answers that I often ignore. Thanks everyone.

 

I know a lot of shitty things are happening in the world right now. But I get this feeling that most of the posts I see in lemmy feed are sad or depressing.

Are there any uplifting communities that I'm missing out on ?

Edit1: Thanks for the suggestions everyone

 

Edit: I'm basically looking for new topics to explore to add to my YouTube feed/subscriptions 😁

Edit2: Great recommendations. Thank you everyone

 

Wondering if anyone has experimented with using controllers (PS/xbox/other) to do anything other than gaming ?

 

Just wondering if someone was committed enough to make such a movie

 

I find it amazing that if a child is brought up in a community/country different from the origin of the child, the child is still able to pick up and speak their language fluently. Our ability, as humans, to imitate and communicate is incredibly complex regardless of where we are from.

So my question is, is there a language that cannot be spoken like this? One which only people with a certain genetic advantage can speak fluently during upbringing.

Of course anyone can learn a language by putting effort into it. My question is only for one learnt during upbringing (native language).

(Not sure why my responses are downvoted. I'm a non-native English speaker. Sorry if I didn't communicate something properly. It's just a scientific curiosity.)
