actually me way back in high school. i had heard about bitcoin and went “ooh what an interesting way to make money” set up the miner and opened a wallet and everything, never mined and forgot about it. fast forward to the crypto boom 10 years later and i was sad

that’s just straight up inaccurate information. bluetooth low energy has a data rate of 2mbps, which was introduced with bluetooth 5. regular bluetooth 5 has a 50mbps bandwidth based on a very cursory google search

you’re talking about a bandwidth cap, not a data cap. data caps are when you get throttled after downloading a certain amount of data or get charged extra. think phone data plans where you have 10 or 20gb or whatever per month

to answer your edit, yes all creatures started out as single celled-organisms many billions of years ago and gradually evolved. this process is still happening today but takes millions of years, not something you would observe in a human lifetime

wow how could this have appen-ed

(i just really wanted to make the pun)

shut the fuck up LMFAO

indeed. completely forgot to mention him but I did a thing is also a very fun watch

stuff made here for some crazy projects and impressive engineering/software writing

j kenji lopez alt for very informative cooking videos

michael reeves for a crack cocaine version of stuff made here

fair enough. allow me to rephrase, whatever reason we’re on the fediverse, it should be held to the same standard. for context, the initial commenter said something along the lines of “you don’t have to be here”

if it was any other social media like reddit doing this, everyone would be up in arms about it. no one is forced to be on reddit either. we’re on lemmy bc we value our privacy (no ads, tracking, etc.) so it should be held to the same standard too and not given a free pass.

reading the article, it doesn’t even seem like a dynamic island problem. the author is complaining that they are unable to quickly glance and what notifications they have without pulling the notification shade down, which would have happened whether the island is there or not. iOs has never done that, even when displays were squared off with no cutout. article feels clickbaity and complaining about nothing

totally agree, peer reviewing is the bare minimum, but it IS a step above any old article published on a random website. also would like to acknowledge the limitations of this particular study. fair criticism and is something the authors brought up in their paper too.

my reply was in response to the original commenter mentioning that there was no link to the study at all.

At the bottom of the article, the paper has been published in a peer reviewed journal.

i knew the expanse would pop up somewhere in the comments! been working my way through the books and it’s great!

iMessage lock in is almost exclusively a US problem (maybe EU, but i have no experience living there so i’m not sure). I’m from Malaysia and 99% of communication here is done through whatsapp and I know this is true for many other countries too. Line is frequently used in korea, Wechat in china, etc. It was only when I moved to the US that I used iMessage in any serious capacity

thank you sir!

how would i go about implementing these filters for ublock origin? is there a tutorial i could use?

+1 to this. if they’re giving you shit about what type of soup you eat the rest of the relationship is not gonna be very pleasant either

i second this. I’ve owned 2 so far, the 2017 model and the refreshed 2020 model. Both have had their share of overheating issues, awful audio drivers (baked in wavemaxx sound “enhancement” that cannot be removed), hardware issues, etc. Would not recommend. The only thing they have going for them is they look so damn good

definitely watch it with them. just faking it will only get you so far before the act falls apart. it’ll also help you build your relationship with them if you show interest in picking up and learning stuff she likes IMO
