It’s wild because in a lot of cases the FDA does have jurisdiction over the apps, they just choose not to check them.

Clicking through the link gets to the actual article.
SomeRandomWords@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto Programming@programming.dev•Mozilla will move Firefox development from Mercurial to Microsoft’s GitHub21·2 years agoI keep hearing people only on Lemmy bring up Gitea but I haven’t really heard of it otherwise. What’s the appeal and what’s keeping it locked away with the Lemmy community?

Just a whole lot of us would argue they don’t do enough about it.

Curious, did buying groceries more end up costing more?
When I switched from buying in bulk periodically to buying small more often, I can say that my first few weeks definitely cost more. I had a mindset about buying for X weeks out instead of X days out that took a bit to shake. In the process I realized how much food waste I was having by purchasing in bulk and not fully using everything, and I naturally switched to purchasing less at the grocery store. Both because it meant carrying less home but also because it was cheaper. Now I buy more or less exactly what I need and I can say on average my grocery spending is less now (avg monthly) than it was when I was buying in bulk.

A whole lotta people in this thread who don’t want to acknowledge that this dude is trash, no matter how good or bad their music is.

SomeRandomWords@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto Technology@lemmy.world•Has HP printers always been this bad?English21·2 years agoDefending a pedophile doesn’t make one a pedophile. That’s the stretch I’m arguing against.
I can’t believe I’m defending Stallman here. He’s got so many other reasons to be hated.
SomeRandomWords@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto Technology@lemmy.world•Has HP printers always been this bad?English195·2 years agoRichard Stallman is a bad person but I don’t think we need to make stuff up to prove that. He’s said he’s fine with child pornography (as long as it’s consensual) and might have favorable views on pedophilia (that may have since been backtracked) but that doesn’t make himself a pedophile.
Just a misunderstood crazy person.
SomeRandomWords@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto Android@lemdro.id•Google removes photo sphere mode from the new PixelEnglish10·2 years agoA lot of it was updated with both OSM (imagery via Mapillary) and Google Maps.
While I love the “don’t make Google stronger” stance, the goal wasn’t to help Google but instead to help the people who needed the imagery. And (at the time, at least) most people planned their routes using Google Maps so it was important to meet them where they were.
SomeRandomWords@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto Android@lemdro.id•Google removes photo sphere mode from the new PixelEnglish20·2 years agoWhoa I had no idea this happened. I used to be a part of a group that would go in and add street view for places like public transit stations so people could gauge accessibility. It’s such a shame that Google killed that ability…
We’ve proposed “Routey” (pronounced like “Rudy”) as a nickname for a future pet named “Littleton/Route 495” (named after the MBTA Commuter Rail stop). You could also do “Tony” but that’s less fun.

Like sure, I don’t want everyone to be jobless because the robots are taking over. But I am hugely in favor of the boring, repetitive tasks being automated away so people can work on more interesting things.
SomeRandomWords@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto homeassistant@lemmy.world•Why shouldn't I use Reolink Cameras?English1·2 years agoI make use of Reolink cameras with Frigate (mix of PoE and WiFi) and haven’t had any issues with the smart home integration. The only issue I’ve had is with some RLC-811s (and a few other outdoor ones) where water gets into the reset cable and the camera essentially starts boot looping. Seal off those cables and you should be good though.

When I used to take the train daily at rush hour, I’d squeeze into the car and pin my hand to the ceiling to stabilize myself. Never lost my balance.
I read that as an electric bike originally but now I wonder if you’re right. Mopeds are definitely better than cars but I doubt they’re better than trams.
It’s useful to note that there exists Lemmy servers where down votes are not processed. So the high up vote to down vote ratio isn’t necessarily a reflection of people not down voting, it’s potentially a reflection of the servers that allow down votes along with all other servers (generally they all allow up votes).
