What they failed to mention too was that some communities (IIRC, it was r/mildlyinteresting) approved NSFW content that was only risqué pictures of vegetables, like fruits shaped like genitalia.

This article is just a rewording of u/Spez propaganda. It wouldn't surprise me if Ziff-Davis, owners of PCMag, are investors on Reddit. Condé Nast certainly is, which explain why yesterdays article on Ars-Technica shares the same propagandistic tones.

It worries me that all those communities moving to Discord will one day suffer though all this all over again, once Discord enshittifies and drives them out. Relying on a closed, proprietary and centralized service for user-generated content is a bad idea, as we all learned already.

It stopped receiving posts or comments from other instances like lemmy.world. Their reasoning is that they want a highly moderated "safe" instance, but since moderation tools are still very primitive, they decided to defederate, it was easier than trying to moderate posts from the big instances. They said they will re-federate once mod tools improve.

This is why I love my Espresso machine so much. It's a modern one, but:

  • It has a physical, mechanical switch that makes a satisfying "CLACK" when I turn it on
  • Selection of single/double shot espresso/capuccino/latte is done by a rotary knob
  • Separate (non-capacitive) buttons for continuous pour of coffee/steamed milk

Sure it has a micro, but it's function is to monitor temperature and allows preparation of beverages only when it's at the appropriate temperature.

Oh, and it doesn't use wasteful capsules. It uses a regular socketed filter holder that takes regular ground coffee.

If it ever breaks, I'm pretty sure it'll be easy to fix with the junk I have at home. Clearly a machine designed by people who loves coffee and respects their customers.

They're trying for an unified interface for desktop, Steam Deck and phone clients. While I agree that toggles are less optimal for a mouse driven interface, they're much better for touch screens or gamepads.

Naah. This is (in his POV) excelent. He can just fire an e-mail at 3:00AM saying: "Everyone from Boulder will have to check in to the SF office by tomorrow. If you fail to do so, I'll assume you abandoned work and is no longer employed at Twitter".

What a POS...
