this quest app uses really shit ai art for its promo images. i made the second image in 3 minutes in gimp and i think it gets the point across much better

people selling 3d printed items online and not sharing the model files feels entirely antithetical to the whole idea of 3d printing

alice

if you told people in the 80s that in the future we would have the replicator from star trek as something most people could buy, but you couldnt make items with it because people wanted to make money off their own replicators i think they would call you a fucking idiot

@lexd0g

Is it an instruction?

Can it be used as a text-entry box? :D

So how much money do they owe you for installing their software? :D

@lexd0g well that looks exactly like any other legal text to me: gibberish full of Latin words

@lexd0g apple used to have an app to help people migrate from an Android phone to an iPhone. To use the app, you'd type in a number displayed on the new iPhone into the old Android.

It didn't allow you to use the phone's software keyboard, instead it had a keypad on the screen. The app also assumed the Android device has a 16:9 aspect ratio screen.

A family member's phone had a 3:2 aspect ratio screen, so the keyboard went off the screen. I can't remember if I couldn't click the summit button, or the 0 button, but needless to say the app was useless.

Apple made it so much harder to move a family member to an iPhone. I had to use a 3rd party application. It's incredibly frustrating

@lexd0g use the fucking keyboard if it lets you

alice

i have seen a lot of people think this is discords fault, this is the android app running in meta horizon os, the keyboard is not from discord it is from the os itself, it was a one time bug that fixed itself after restarting the app its not a big deal

alice

watched ltt's review of the apple vision pro, linus basically said it's very impressive tech but there's nothing to do on it

i can't believe apple invented the PS3

Miss adderal girl
@lexd0g apple inventing the ps3 every time somehow except for the macbook
but even then there ain't no games

so for some reason in all chromium browsers i have installed (vivaldi, edge and chrome) times between 00:00 and 00:59 on mastodon render as 24:00 through 24:59. it doesnt happen with firefox. hilarious bug tbh

alice

forgot i used to have this custom boot animation on my steam deck

alice

it will never not be funny to see "powered by Android" on a phone's splash screen just for it to start booting postmarketOS 5 seconds later

The King! :bleh:

@lexd0g@wetdry.world I should try and get PMOS booting from SD card on the funny again (or emmc, I dont care at this point)

so under apple's new rules, if you make a free app, distributed on a third party platform, and it gets 1.5 million yearly downloads in the EU, you still have to pay apple €250k/year

between this and apple being able to notarize third party apps, i'm not sure how this doesn't violate the DMA

@lexd0g these fees apply on both the app store and 3rd party stores. whereas previously free apps didn't cost anything to publish.

this just fucks over
all EU app developers

what the actual fuck

Marijke Luttekes

@lexd0g Do we know if they count fresh installs only, or updates to already installed apps as well?

Sindarina, Edge Case Detective

@lexd0g @mahryekuh Only if you decide to work under the new terms. If you don't switch and stick with the existing terms, nothing changes, and you don't pay anything more than you do now.

See ‘New business terms for EU apps' in the FAQ;

developer.apple.com/support/dm

Or select “Today's capabilities and terms” in the fee calculator.

@lexd0g the problem with the piracy experience is the potential for malware to be included in the binary. But I guess in many ways the official method requiring Internet access to transmit your activity as you play is a kind of malware itself. 🤷

@lexd0g me: lucks into a used physical copy of a game and is able to use 7zip to install it despite the steam code having already been used

ghostly nano :nanoBlobOwO:
@lexd0g you missed the part where you need to sign up for a new account on the store if you dont already have one, install their launcher, log in, then you probably have to make another fucking account on the games individual launcher also

@lexd0g Something I had happen to me a lot (Though I never knew you could get the Dolphin File Manager on windows)

Yora

@lexd0g There is also an Android browser.

Ji Fu
@lexd0g so what did you want of Dolphin if it wasn't the KDE file manager?
alice

how is this a real fucking tweet

Essem :skeeter:

@lexd0g i'm surprised people are still getting this; i saw it once on this account, closed it, and it never appeared again
