Take your dumb reddit shit back to reddit.

Yeah that’s Bonjour and having a fixed platform.

Hey there, thanks for sharing your opinion of my opinion. It seems like you’re pretty passionate about making up complete bs to attack Firefox, I think everyone would stand by that point. I think your post is biased and largely anecdotal as I have already said, I did not say you were crying or whining but that you could just as easily add both to the post and they would fit right in line with your other non factual arguments. As for bias yours could only be more clear if you revealed your self-created manga where you and Chrome have a short romance which then shifts to you being the bottom that you have always hoped you’d become only for things to fall apart as Chrome runs out of RAM while giving birth.

Yeah so most of these are just unsupported opinion. Why don’t you just add crying and whining to your post to really cap off your bias?

Quick IoT haters, spin this back around. This time make it that the toothbrushes all form into a man sized brush bot that people the brush off.

What hyper inflation? I think you need to check your sources mate.

There are free solutions that are open source, hell there’s older commercial solutions from Acronis and whatever Symantec calls Ghost these days. You made a poor choice in selecting a losing horse in a race that’s been run many times - how is that a reflection of the state of modern tech? You didn’t choose the Hare, you chose poorly.

The article and this discussion isn’t about reliable solutions vs new fangled stuff that doesn’t realise, it’s about what we do now that stuff realised and we didn’t think about what we signed up for. I’m really glad your dad encouraged you to think about the value of well-worn approaches but you’re being extremely reductive as are many in this discussion. What I find interesting about that is I feel this trend towards reductive thinking probably reflects a world seemingly happily with sliding the Overton window right inch by inch.

Yeah that’s not correct. Facebook bought into the oculus project in a share swap/cash deal with Lucky Palmer. Carmack joined the project later because he believes in VR in a big way and he contributed very important parts of the rendering methods to greatly improve performance.

Exactly this. What a terrible exercise in reductionism.

Man that is one vapid piece of writing. VR is definitely a thing - there’s a whole market of devices, accessories and apps and experiences made for it. If your articles hinges on the idea of dismissing something that exists because you think it’s pointless then your article is reductive. Reductive posts on forums are thing but paragraphs of reductive reasoning is proof that some people need to touch grass now and then. I have no interest in Vision Pro but complaining that VR is pointless isn’t what I need to do to justify my lack of interest.

First, you said iPads are the entire market and I just proved that isn’t remotely true, so accept that. Switching up the goalposts to insult people in markets that either don’t have access to iPads or can’t afford them isn’t ok.

Scale of economy isn’t the reason that globally Apple cannot go beyond 40% of that market, it’s a competitive market and Apple would need to sacrifice profit to sell at prices their competitors can to match them at scale. Apple will not be able to meet even their nearest neighbours down from Samsung because they will not scale their soaring profit margin down to match.

If you care the to be honest about subsidies then you may want to ask why Google dominates all Apple products and why Facebook used to - remember when Facebook had its own preferences before being migrated to the app settings? Apple has often subsidised product with brand relationships to certain third-parties to maximise profits.

As to your vague statement about every iPad shitting every competitor that is is bullshit and dismisses all value propositions in favour or brand comfort and some subjective synthetic benchmarks that rarely reflect real world experexperience. In practice I own a really great Lenovo tab that gives better than or equal to current gen iPad Pro experiences for much less. And I get to side load apps and remove bloat and ads at my behest. What do you get on an iPad? Whatever Apple supplies in the AppStore and that’s it. Wipr is ok if you are ok with Safari but you can’t easily or consistently remove ads from other Apps and you can’t recompile them on device to add features or remove other annoying ones. Synthetic benchmarks don’t tell the real story and never have.

Nope, iPads are less than 40% of the global tablet space

By garbage you mean Lenovo can offer a fast tablet with hdr, high frame rate display, 2k res, proper pen included and useful desktop mode for less than an iPad? Sorry but iPad is no longer offering competitive product in the tablet space.

Ocing the display to 96hz for 24fps video seems silly, you can interpolate frames to suit any refresh rate with no loss in quality these days.

Can I ask why you think hand tracking in Quest is underwhelming? For the Quest 3, it’s fucking incredible, it recognises individual digits and gestures in all lighting and scenarios I’ve tested. Which generation did you use?

What does Firefox relay have to do with saving passwords?

This seems extremely poorly researched.

Of course companies have that authority - it’s something that can even protect us which we often support. When we mark messages as spam they eventually tag senders as spammers who can get blocked from delivering messages at the provider, device and vendor level. What about emergency warnings - should we be able to opt out of those too?

I agree that we need capitalism with oversight to encourage ethical behaviour but you’re missing a key point to illustrate a pretty biased perspective.

iMessage is not a stamp in this analogy - it is a whole separate post office and infrastructure, including staff and policies.

You’re mischaracterising the argument.
