Next pump and dump: the American economy.

Inferior range, potential for interference, power consumption, meshing, and security. Name one area where it’s better.

And I still expect one or more of these companies to break the standard to create their own walled garden.

Zwave and zigbee have never needed a cloud.

I live in a country with 10 million people and it works here. But yes there are probably some that don’t have the frequencies.

I would argue you get what you pay for in terms of interoperability and reliability, but I can imagine people willing to trade some of that for a lower price.

Still on zwave which works great. Don’t see the point of this standard which runs over an inferior type of networking and is brought to us by the companies that created the interoperability problem in the first place.

Jeez at least take your blue neighbors with you.

I know everything I need to know already. At any RAM/SSD configuration I can use, the upgrade will be 10x market rates and out of my price range.

I don’t feel that that’s true if you remove the .ml’s.

I wonder why both isn’t possible, build some into the chip but leave some DIMMs for upgradeability too at bit lower speed.

It’s full of tankies. Many of the mods of major subs such as politics or world news are tankies and will block anything remotely critical of Russia or China and censor anyone who says, for instance, that Ukraine has the right to take the fight to Russia. It’s definitely more covert than lemmygrad is, but after about 6 months there, it became abundantly clear to me that nothing good was coming out of that place.

Trust me, as someone who has been through this process, they manage to drive away all the normies pretty quickly.

You don’t have to use filters, just like you don’t have to subscribe to subreddits on Reddit. You can just use the default front page if you are afraid of tailoring it to your tastes.

You can listen to people try to convince you that Russia’s war is justified and that Tienamen Square never happened for a while if you want, then make up your mind and block them later ;-).

Yes, most people will want to do this at a minimum with Lemmy.ml and lemmygrad.ml (actually most instances already have defederated with the second, but it doesn’t hurt).

Yeah they’ve gotten really weird about forcing you to use their app and put a credit card on it constantly. Really annoying.

Meh, who cares just keep running it if you feel like it. A problem for organizations, maybe, but not individuals.

I still don’t know what this is though? Something Linux specific?

Sounds interesting, care to expand?

The only concrete one I can actually recollect is generating a quote from our quoting tool in Salesforce. I just ended up running my 100+ Salesforce windows in Chrome because it has a good feature where you can name each window so I can see which customers I’m working on in the taskbar. It’s good to have those cordoned off from my normal browsing anyway. So this one doesn’t bother me. For everything else I use Firefox.
