Because OSM doesn’t already do that for them? Every edit is saved under your account, as has been said, they don’t need to do any of that

Paranoia that someone doing something that you’re explicitly allowing them to do makes you look silly, you know

It was cool for a while but my area is mostly done, even with expanded quests it was basically “what is the road surface here” and “what kind of power pole is this” exclusively

I also very much hate the incredibly limited areas you’re allowed to download, a 2x2 city block area size limit made me babe to download like 8 map sections desperately for the rural area I live in, and that’s JUST for the housing part. If I want to include the nearby lake and part it’ll be like 3pl0 more

Blank spaces arent characters by definition as they’re the space that allows the letters to exist

Cookies and fingerprinting, yes

French press is basically the same work as a drip machine, but a different shape. You just heat the water seperately and then pour it and the coffee into the French press, let it sit, press the plunger down, and pour. Actually takes slightly less time than any cheap dropper I’ve used and runs 0 risk of burning the coffee (drip machines like to put heating elements into their bases to keep the pot hot, this can burn the coffee and ruin the flavor, French presses cannot burn coffee because they cannot add heat)

Espresso is finely ground coffee that uses steam pressure to brew (thus why espresso machines are fucking expensive, my mr coffee unit was 80 buck), it’s an involved process (worth learning gif you’ve got 20m to make a cup of coffee every time) but very good if you use beans you like AND you like your coffee flavor strong

Gotta prove there was evidence on the phone in the first place, which would take forensic work to do and be not worth the work in the majority of cases

Plus it would annoy them, and that’s the real goal here

If you haven’t done this and need the same ability IMMEDIATELY: reboot, or just shut down

Every first boot requires pin same as lockdown

Also: set a nonstandard finger in a weird way as your finger unlock if you wanna use that, then theyre likely to fail to get that to work should you not manage to lock it down beforehand

Finally: there are apps that let you use alternate codes/finger unlocks to wipe/encrypt/reboot the device instead, allowing you to pretend to cooperate with the cops up until they realize they got played

smashing printers with baseball bats

I have years of IT experience, offer Linux support, and am visibly the kind of guy you just know can fix your computer problem (or, if I take my glasses off, I look like I sell weed apparently), and when asked to help with printers I have one answer:

They’re sentient and they hate you. I was trained in IT, not exorcisms. Send it as a PDF, PNG, or smoke signal before you try troubleshooting.

Like, I broke my big office one the other day so bad the tech had to come out. What had I done to brick it so badly? Tap a menu option, tap back, then tap a different menu option. If you don’t wait 3s between the second and third tap it errors and freezes and they have to send a tech out to do some sort of 2 hour long ritual where he rubs it and whispers how sorry he is.

What the fuck is wrong with printers

Nah, i’ll use it for the games that refuse to enable anticheat, and I’ll use the LTSC version whether Microsoft likes it or not

Respecting terms of service is for chumps

Premiere Pro runs smoother on Linux than on Win7-10 ever did

After effects felt the same as PP

So far I haven’t run into any program wine/bottles can’t run. Closest I got was needing to install a second program through wine and run them through the same prefix which is not hard at all

best replacement for Excel

I’ve never met a google sheet that couldn’t do what excel did unless excel was being made to do shit it really isn’t ideal for

Yeah it’s another Corp, but you don’t have to pay and you can simultaneously edit the file on 80 devices at the same time if you want

This remains my #1 complaint every time they send me a “how are we doing” survey

I check, then reply:

Your email app still doesn’t support basic functionality like creating and editing filters, something I had to code for a phone app back in high school

Like, holy shit, the feature exists on desktop why the fuck can’t I have it in the app rreeeeeeeeeeeeeee

What could’ve fit in a screen of text should not be a video at all

In your opinion, maybe

I save videos for later all the time, I just watch them never

Ok, that’s your own bad habit, guess you don’t need to participate since you won’t watch em

If some information is not visual-first, and not entertainment, if it may be important to people and should be spread, it also better not be a video

Tell that to broadcast news. The information provided in videos like this is basically never something original if it’s not entertainment, so you absolutely can find the information elsewhere

Still have yet to see any arguments as to how relevant content on a relevant link aggregator is in any way bad to people who don’t have a weird hate boner for specific media types, because there isn’t one 😉

Because they found it interesting and wanted to discuss it with people?

Just because it’s low priority doesn’t mean it lacks any interest, we can exist between extremes

Most people would roll their eyes and move on

Quite famously 1% of the community are posters, after all. Who the fuck cares what a normal person would post? OP wanted to

and yet it’s being upvoted because “hooray tribalism” over something as asinine as OS (really kernel) choice.

Lol, it’s being upvoted because most of us recognize the sub and it’s pathetic mod and are laughing at being reminded of them, if the comments are anything to go by

this is a website for posting things

Deep, complex reasons

If only there were some save for later button so you could come back later or something

Yeah, figured people would downvote me for pointing out that was a garbage response

Videos don’t degrade the quality of s link aggregator, you’re not required to immediately participate the moment you see it

in my opinion they don’t contribute to the quality here.

As respectfully as possible: huh?

We’re on a link aggregation site, for posting links to things off-site and discuss them in relevant communities

If something is a video or article it makes no difference on its quality or relevance to the community at hand, no?

Giving your vote to an independent or worse not voting at all, just gives more of a chance for Trump to win the election

If you don’t live in one of the 7 states that matter in an election then you can vote your morality, safe in the knowledge that the EC will ignore your input, anyway

Inb4 some dipshit mentions down ballots when we’re talking about the fucking presidential election

I love the arrogance of telling somebody what they mean

You used words that mean something. If your half baked mind has invented new meanings for the word that’s on you, not me

You’ve descended into “I just need to be right” now

I never wasn’t

No point discussing anything.

You’d have to be coherent for that first
