The PWA frameworks are pretty cool. Essentially just system level API hooks which then integrate into a existing React - NextJs - whatever projects. Granted it isn’t touching bare metal like you said but it is a nice level of a abstraction and beats dealing with android studio 🤢

Edit: I hear Expo is neat but I haven’t used it yet.

I’m gen X and I feel like it’s rude to talk to someone with earbuds in so I always take them out, I have noticed a lot of the younger generations don’t view it as rude.

I guess I mean the old version prior to the GME and AMC fiasco.

We need a Lemmy version of WSB

Usually they don’t allow options on new stocks until after the cutoff period. Unless your broker allows naked shorting.

Lol cause no one can afford to live let alone buy a car…

Definitely agree with the Google and Bing, hell I have a better time getting answers to stuff from ChatGPT than Google these days.

I dunno I have done a lot of work to cleanse my home of all of that. I have a pi hole for DNS blocking, I use Firefox with AdBlock on both desktop and mobile, I choose to not use ad riddled apps like TikTok or Instagram (fuck Facebook). I have a VPN which I use for most everything. My home is pretty ad and corporate free. As it should be. Granted I’m pretty tech savvy so none of this was hard for me but I could see my mom having problems.

This is cool, saving this for later…

Had this happen recently with Rogue Trader, it was taking so long to load the assets and stuff I alt-tabbed then came back later and stared at the screen for a good long time before I saw the, “press any key to continue…”

Same, no problems yet.

I usually play with Biters off, I get so upset when they eat my carefully planned expansion

43yo here, I play x-com and BattleTech, though I would argue BG3 is a map based strategy game as well.

I been getting those as well. Like the whole advertisement is for not ads, yet ads!? Wtf

This is an accurate representation of tech debt.

Along with 6 meetings and scrum session

I agree with the healthier environment, it’s kind of nice being able to make a comment and have people actually see it rather than there being 2k+ comments. It’s a small community but I don’t mind that and it’s actually good in that I don’t doom scroll as much cause there just isn’t enough content, so I don’t spend hours on it.

I bought the audiobook for the most recent book. 3.4hours for the whole thing.

Fourth and sixth from the left imo
