Python port:
from ballsucker import suck
suck()
Python port:
from ballsucker import suck
suck()
All of this is okay, but it’s not production ready. This is what real production code looks like:
SuckableFactory suckableFactory = new SuckableFactory();
Suckable balls = suckableFactory
.setShape(SuckableShapes.round)
.setCount(2)
.create();
SuctionProvider mouth = SuctionProvider.getInstance();
SuckerFactory suckerFactory = new SuckerFactory();
Sucker sucker = SuckerFactory.create():
sucker.setSuctionProvider(mouth);
sucker.setSuckable(balls);
sucker.setIntensity(SuckerSuctionIntensities.medium);
sucker.suckSuckable();
Gonna give you the benefit of the doubt and assume it’s a second language thing.
The initial comment was saying a netflix app on a computer monitor is completely useless since the whole point of a computer monitor is to plug in a computer, which if the user wants can easily play stuff off netflix through a browser or app. Not comparing a PC with Netflix, just saying it’s stupid to put apps on a computer monitor (I agree).
Do they also pull the “fair use” bullshit out their asses like our ISPs?
Can I ask what country so I can avoid it like the plague?
Ah yes, good ol’ US of A. Why am I not surprised?
My ISP recently introduced data caps on unlimited (they throttle you to 4Mbit if you go past ~300GB or 500, not sure). I already wanted to leave but that’s really lighting a fire under me to move the fuck out of here.
I recently bought a 5TB hard drive. It’s funny how that sounds like a lot of space until you fill it up and find yourself eyeing another.
True. Even I’ve been guilty of that at times. It’s just hard right now to see the positives through the countless downsides and the fact that the biggest application we’re moving towards seems to be taking value from talented people and putting it back into the pockets of companies that were already hoarding wealth and treating their workers like shit.
So usually when people say “AI is the next big thing”, I say “Eh, idk how useful an automated idiot would be” because it’s easier than getting into the weeds of the topic with someone who’s probably not interested haha.
Edit: Exhibit A
The issue is that “AI” has become a marketing buzz word instead of anything meaningful. When someone says “AI” these days, what they’re actually referring to is “machine learning”. Like in LLMs for example: what’s actually happening (at a very basic level, and please correct me if I’m wrong, people) is that given one or more words/tokens, it tries to calculate the most probable next word/token based on its model (trained on ridiculously large numbers of bodies of text written by humans). It does this well enough and at a large enough scale that the output is cohesive, comprehensive, and useful.
While the results are undeniably impressive, this is not intelligence in the traditional sense; there is no reasoning or comprehension, and definitely no consciousness, or awareness here. To grossly oversimplify, LLMs are really really good word calculators and can be very useful. But leave it to tech bros to make them sound like the second coming and shove them where they don’t belong just to get more VC money.
That’s actually amazing! Maybe I should start ranting about stuff that annoys me in software I love. Wouldn’t mind being lead dev on something I’m an active user of.
30 seconds in and subbed because “man rants about DAW UI/UX” is a genre of video that I never knew existed but suddenly can’t live without.
Yup that sounds about right for iOS.
Meant more that if Android ends up in the same boat (and by the looks of it, that’s exactly what Google and Samsung want), then iOS starts to look viable because the situation becomes: all the same bullshit but iOS is polished to a shine.
Don’t plan on switching phones until my less than year old Note 9 kicks the bucket 😅
Huh…the more you know. I just assumed Magisk was a spiritual successor, apparently I misunderstood how any of it works.
This!
APK signatures exist and they’re enough for making sure the file you got isn’t modified. Warning people when they use apks for stuff like banking, I get, but if they wanna take the risk, it’s on them.
Blocking root makes no sense because I’d argue that if the person knows enough to root their phone and got past all those bricked phone/thermonuclear war warnings, the onus is on them to not get their keychain compromised by giving root to some random app. Again, a warning is fine.
Aside from that, people need to understand: THE CLIENT IS NEVER SECURE. NO EXCEPTIONS.
Any self respecting secure API is made under the assumption that all the calls are coming from some malicious state actor using curl
until proven beyond doubt that it’s an actual user.
I’ve used Magisk with the safetynet module + hiding root from apps with like a 95% success rate. Quick search for “magisk safetynet” and look at the xdadevelopers threads
Whoa, is Xposed still a thing that works? Had to use Magisk instead to get the safety net stuff working on Lineage OS android 11
Hardware isn’t everything. Apple has a couple of advantages over iPhone that let them do more with less:
The selling points for Android (at least the way I’ve seen it over the years) have always been full control (talking about non-root, I’d rather not go down the root rabbit hole here) and (since iPhone 11 started doing firmware blocks on parts) reparability…but both seem to be going out the window lately.
Prices are crap though, but then again Android phones on the top end don’t seem much better. 1-2 gen old iPhones are usually a bit more reasonable though tbh.
The more I think about it, this may finally convince me to…shudders…switch to an iPhone. I’ve always stayed on Android because despite the recent Google bullshit, it still for the most part lets me do whatever. Side-loading apks is a huge part of that.
If it’s turning into a shittier iOS clone, what’s the point?
There’s a bank here that refuses to let you log into their app if you have developer options enabled. Their service was getting much better until that point, but I dropped them completely after that.
I use developer options to get better screen density on my large ass screen, and to you know…develop apps 🤷♂️
FUCK THESE ASSHOLES WHO THINK THEY CAN TELL ME WHAT I CAN AND CAN NOT DO WITH MY PHONE
My favorite was the bit about the increased chocolate rations! 😄
I disabled TPM 2.0 in the BIOS and MADE my PC incompatible so Windows 10 would shut up about the “new and improved Windows 11”.
