This is very cool. I’m looking forward to seeing the progress!

I think they might go the other way and use it as leverage to push Sony to release cross platform games
What about cargo bikes??
I’ve used it and like it except I noticed that it apparently has a lot of 3rd party trackers. It apparently tries to send data to many 3rd party companies including Facebook, Google, Microsoft, Amazon, and Twitter.
I’m not sure why it needs to send this much data to third parties, but it makes me feel a little turned off by this app.
I bought it right before the price increase so I told myself it was like getting it on sale
A lot of people in this thread talking about how it’s not feasible because content creators wouldn’t get paid and I agree if you expect that same quality of content.
But I think peertube opens the door for a lot of the more organic content of just people sharing interesting/entertaining/educational videos with others without any expectation of being paid. I’ve already watched some really good videos on peertube that feel a lot more like the old days of YouTube.
If you’re really serious I would first recommend you familiarize yourself with the needs of blind users generally. Like try using the internet with your eyes closed and a screen reader to understand how a blind person would interact with a website. Maybe you can ask around or Google some tips for getting started with that.
I had a former coworker who was a UX designer and he taught himself to use a screen reader for this reason since he was required to ensure anything he designed was accessible.
If you edit the URL and remove everything before reddit.com and the change it to old.reddit.com you can view it without the app
Oh that would be amazing. I like that idea but I’m not sure if it’s likely
Yup, I’ve checked it out anonymously with AdBlock a few times and I click links to posts from mods and things like that but I deleted the app (Boost for Reddit) from my phone and I’m not installing the first party one
At work we had a front end bug ticket filed and one of the other engineers determined it was only affecting Firefox.
Our product manager said “who still uses Firefox anyway?”. I was the one to pipe up and say actually I use it too
You can actually use messenger without a Facebook account which is what I do for the rare occasions I need that
Yeah I mostly use it for like product reviews/recommendations or like personal help topics. Not stuff where factual information is required
I’ve found several good videos/channels on urbanists.video which is kind of specific to urbanism but still there’s some good stuff. The videos have a lot lower production quality than most YouTube channels, but I actually kind of like how casual it is.
They’re just making videos because they have something interesting/funny/educational to share and they’re not out there trying to make money.
Yeah it just felt really flat to me.
I played the first version so much going all the way back to the beta and even that was already feeling really stale and like it had lost some of it’s charm. I was going OW2 would freshen it up a but I really just feel nothing towards it
No way am I going to pre-order a game in this era of half baked releases and especially not a game from Bethesda which is as well known for their rampant bugs as their compelling gameplay
Yeah I have a lot of experience with Ubuntu but I was wondering if there were any more optimal distros for gaming.
But I’m glad you mentioned Nvidia cause I have an Nvidia graphics card so that might be an issue for me
I like how Beehaw is doing it. Slowly introducing new servers as there is demand for it.
I live in Atlanta and going entirely car free would be a challenge for my family of four, but we did manage to go from a 2 car family to a 1 car family which has been a nice shift.
It’s had a few lifestyle changes for us, mostly me since I try to leave the car for my wife when I go somewhere by myself. The sale of our second car funded the purchase of 2 ebikes, so we like to ride bikes around which has changed the kind of place we like to go around our city. It’s been a lot of fun for us.
When I occasionally need to go to work I’ve found that bike+transit works fairly well for my needs. Sometimes I’ll also just take only transit on days when the weather is bad but it’s a lot less flexible that way since the bus schedule is so infrequent.
Overall, I’d say that you don’t necessarily need to go all in on being car free to care about urbanism and reducing car travel. There are so many things out of our control with regard to the state of our city so sometimes taking smaller steps to reduce our car usage is all we can do.
This is a good article. Has a lot of examples showing why streets have a good or bad pedestrian experience.
It’s not as simple as number of lanes or even the quality of the sidewalk. A lot of it really comes down to development patterns. You can really feel the difference when you’re in a place not built for walking. Being on a well constructed sidewalk far away from any buildings because there’s a giant parking lot in between just feels wrong.
There are a few places very close to my house I refuse to walk to because the pedestrian experience is terrible. You feel out of place, unwelcome, and unsafe.
