I've ditched both and have gone mostly back to physical media. Even standard 1080p Blu-ray from 2007 look better than any streaming app as the bitrate is significantly higher, and you can find used Blu Ray for super cheap right now. New releases are a little expensive but there are still rental options
If you zoom in it does show some off axis stuff, and downtown is only a small portion of the entire city so it seems reasonable. Though it's definitely inconsistent, like if it uses all of Denver city limits but for NYC only shows Manhattan and ignores the other 4 boroughs
Oh yeah no for sure, we're pretty much past the point of no return at this point for shitty things happening in my of our lifetimes, even if humanity decides to suddenly start doing something about it
The new analysis estimates a timescale for the collapse of between 2025 and 2095, with a central estimate of 2050
To be clear, this is still really bad, but it's typical media reporting where scientists say sometime in the next 70 years and the media changes it to "next year"
Says a lot about the different cultures too because here in the US a politician lying about having a party during lockdown would be praised by conservatives for sticking up for their "freedoms"
The outlandish videos they do are pretty entertaining, I don't see how they're going to succeed as a data driven review channel given Linus' temperament. Like compare them to something like rtings and it's really night and day
It's tough because the last few high profile cases to allow cameras in the courtroom have if anything shown that too much transparency can be a bad thing, especially when you make a spectacle out of a process that anyone who isn't a trial attorney isn't going to properly understand, but will certainly draw their own conclusions regardless
The driver is responsible for this accident, Tesla still should be liable imo for all the shady and outright misleading advertising around their so called "self driving". Compare Tesla's marketing to like GMs of Hyundai's, both of which essentially have parity with Teslas system in terms of actual features, and you'll see a big difference
OP said LA so while these numbers are a little high they're not out of the ordinary for a high CoL American city. I live near NYC and prices at fairly mainstream not particularly upscale restaurants and Manhattan are similar to this. As long as you're living within your means there's no reason to avoid doing things you enjoy
I've tried Firefox several times but always end up back on chromium due to compatibility; a lot of sites don't play well with anything but chrome anymore and this is very much something intentionally caused by Google, who have basically taken a page out of Microsoft's playbook but with a much more mature product that is going to be substantially harder to replace then IE was
Spez may still be a corporate sellout but at least in this instance he did the right thing, probably because he determined ratting out users who pirated wouldn't make him money
Lemmy.ml is hosted by the developers of Lemmy; their political views are kinda irrelevant here, I don't think there's a single political party that wants MORE of Metas influence in anything
In the lost media community there is a distinction between things that are known to be lost forever (baring some miracle) and things that may still exist but either no known copies have been found or the owner refuses to release a digital copy (usually due to copyright reasons). For example most of the early seasons of Doctor Who were lost due to the BBCs policy but over the years copies of the film and even some rudimentary at home recordings have been found, allowing for them to be archived and preserved
I had a job a few years ago where my account kept getting locked out (their IT security department was kinda paranoid and basically everything could get you locked out). I used this to crest a shortcut on my phone to call their automated help desk line and enter in my employee id / dob/ whatever else they needed to unlock my account, at one point it was happening several times a day. Left that job shortly after thankfully
It's been going on for nearly a year now, but the layoffs tend to happen in waves because the stock market and investors in general tend to be very reactionary. Also a lot of companies released their quarterly earnings recently
It entirely depends on the cat, and generally speaking, the earlier you teach a kitten that human contact is a good thing the more likely they will be receptive of it. Cats are most impressionable the first 10-12 weeks of their life, after that its really hard to convince them to change. We have two cats that were raised in a great foster home that we adopted at around 12 weeks and they will literally let you do anything; I think its like 50% genes and 50% how they were raised
Dear God, i hope that's not true. Quora answer quality is probably worse than Yahoo answers; at least those were just shit posts, 90% of Quora answers are ads by the creator of some project in my experience
You can set it in your preferences on web, idk if that syncs to the mobile app. Mine also turned into spanish on web the other day for some reason, which is my secondary language in chrome but my primary language is set to English. In Lemmy settings i just forced it to English
idk if your instance is any different but on lemmy.world I just got to settings on the top right corner where my user name is and set "Interface Language" to English

They've already lost their identity. The parties over, spez has turned it into corporate garbage no better than Instagram
