Unreal Tournament 99.

I think they might shadow drop it on April 20th.

If you make money on YouTube you can afford iPhone Pro probably. You probably already have one for shooting quality video because what else is there at this budget?

Going by number of features isn’t really a way to tell what’s premium. For me the bar is set really low which is not having ads, which most budget Android phones fail at.

They’ve just done this to create artificial value for the “Pro” models.

Correct. They found out professionals have money to afford premium hardware and software so you can charge them that. Perfectly reasonable way to make money, little competition in that space as opposed to general purpose budget stuff.

I rarely take 128GB worth of photos at once so background iCloud sync is fast enough so that when I take a photo on my phone it’s visible on my Mac a minute or so after that.

I’m sure we’ll find much evidence for hobbyists on Lemmy having different use cases from the general public but Apple wasn’t ever interested in supporting that niche at budget prices because there’s little money to be made there.

Regular person doesn’t need much offline storage because they download apps from the App Store, listen to music from a streaming service and sync photos to iCloud or Google Photos. Those people probably shouldn’t store their data offline either way because they won’t back it up properly. It’s another case of Apple treating general public like incompetent grannies but they’re kind of right about that.

They let iCloud do the thing. Their computers don’t have that much storage.

People discuss this as if they connected their phones to their computers more than once in the past 5 years.

Redlib does that but it’s a game of cat and mouse these days. Facebook fought off web scrapers and while Reddit is much less technically competent they’ll get there too eventually.

Reddit makes browsing without account harder and harder. I assume the end goal is a walled unindexable garden like Facebook or Discord.

I assume those who were interested enough could whip out a script to do that easily until Reddit disabled API which is the moment I lost interest in the platform. I don’t know how people do it these days without getting accounts suspended for automated traffic but it’s something you have to consider and probably the reasons why such tools are not available widely.

Reddit won’t show you that your comment was removed by a mod and shows removed comments on user profiles (unless they had to be nuked for legal reasons). If you suspect you’re shadow banned or if your comment was quietly removed you have to check for that from a separate account in that comment thread directly.

Having user supply some copyrighted software that they should own (like BIOS or decryption keys) is entirely different from an emulator or a homebrew project taking and integrating copyrighted code. They’re lucky Nintendo didn’t sue them into oblivion like that modchip guy because they really could.

Twin Peaks broke the episodic TV paradigm making way for longer stories being told via this medium. It still got loads of filler, especially in the second season parts without Lynch, but Rome wasn’t built in a day (/chuckles).

Whelp, they’re lucky Nintendo didn’t care enough. Wondering what prompted this?

Tildes does this with the rationale being that once a post is submitted to a community it belongs to that community. This solves more things than it breaks since you don’t want to participate in a community where mods would abuse this and modlogs are public anyway.

First Blood.

If this exists only to capture that brief moment of bliss while driving along the coast to Passing Breeze, I’ll watch it.

This conspiracy theory is missing the part that explains debit cards.
