Michael Mc Donnell@lemmy.mlto Technology@lemmy.ml•FTC Orders Twitter to Pay $150 Million Penalty for Profiting from Deceptively Collected Data3·3 years agoSo which executive ordered this at Twitter? And who’s going to jail?
I love the generate enum feature! Just as I thought they couldn’t add more useful features :-)
The quality of a Big Mac is way better in Denmark too. I’ve noticed capitalists tend to conveniently forget about quality (e.g. lowest bidder).
Michael Mc Donnell@lemmy.mlto Libre Culture@lemmy.ml•Organic Maps - New promising alternative to Google Maps is now in beta for Android and iOS1·4 years agoI tried it for directions the other day and it is not ready yet. We missed our exit because it did not give good enough directions. It needs to show the next exit number in the top left and the voice directions should tell you which exit to take and ahead of time. If those things get fixed then I probably could use it instead of Google maps.
I use email every day and I’m 38. I think most chat solutions suck because they do not integrate with each other. I’m excited about Delta Chat but I think it still has some way to go (I immediately ran into a couple of show stoppers).
Michael Mc Donnell@lemmy.mlto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Best Rust concepts for contributing to Lemmy?7·4 years agoOne great strategy for learning is to pick a project first. Then read the learning material as you find gaps in your knowledge. Most of the courses for my degrees were like that.
How about the PinePhone or another device supported by PostmarketOS?
