What's the most accurate tech prediction you've heard in the past 10 or so years?Here's a post on a blog from 2014. Creepy.
>>107852853One again I'll remind everyone that when Firefox was at its peak, most people hadn't installed it because they wanted, it was power users who installed Firefox on their dad's computer or told their friends to use it because it was "better."Firefox didn't die because Google magically convinced everyone to install Chrome, it died because those recommendations stopped, and they stopped because at some point Firefox wasn't "better" anymore.Asinine decisions like abandoning XUL and adopting crippled webextensions instead, or like making extension signing obligatory, absolutely killed any love anyone could have for Firefox. It wasn't a browser you could use for anything anymore, you could only use it as Mozilla wanted. Recommending Firefox when it meant freedom was one thing, but who would want to tell his auntie to use Firefox when you don't like it anymore?Chrome didn't win, there was never a competition to begin with because Firefox killed itself. Everyone, every single soul at Mozilla knows it, because when they announced the deprecation of add-ons that actually worked Bugzilla was full to the brim with posts saying that exactly, literally this would happen. So, yeah, fuck off with your prediction, Mozilla could have prevented this. They are the ones who didn't listen.
>>107852853>Be worse>"Choose us because we are not the other guy!" This is always a losing strategy, you need to actually be better if you want to win and being better does not seem to be Firefox's style. I hope Ladybird ends up being good.
>>107852964Re-read the post you just made.
>>107853094My memory is that Firefox was better than IE and early Chrome, but around 2009/2010 Chrome was much faster and more stable. I forget the other reasons that made me switch but Firefox didn't become usable to me again until a few years ago and it's still quirky/broken in some ways beyond the obvious "websites only built/tested for Chrome"
>>107852853People have been saying this for years but google just keeps making a better product I wish I could use opera or Firefox but they run like shit
You now remember Windows 8
>>107852794>the least usable windowsftfy
>>107852758I try not to
>>107852933no, thats win 11, retarded shill
>>107852758I liked my Windows 8.1 Nokia phone, more than the Samsung it replaced and just as much as the iPhone that replaced it.I didn't like using the Windows 8.1 UI on a PC. Idk, maybe was just too used to its predecessors.
>>107852758SOVL!!1 but it still looks like colorful computer for kids.
Besides the fact that its low powered and cute n tiny. Whats the advantage of buying a raspberry pi for $160 versus buying something like a used hp elitedesk g3 for less than $100? Why pay more for less computing power? Besides people out there living off the grid trying to conserve power, i dont understand the point of these things
>>107852776They were made for a world that wasn't plagued by shitty manufacturing shortages. A low-end-2005-desktop tier pi made sense when they went for 50 bucks.
>>107852803Whats the purpose for it? Im looking on youtube now and it seems you can control leds and other small little trinkets but idk what thats useful for. Dont really see anyone using the gpio for anything practical
>>107852776Low power is the biggest selling point, the other one is GPIO pins.
>>107853043cause those are youtube demos. you'd use them just like you would use a microcontroller's gpio stuff. i use a similar sbc to control my vivarium's temp/fans and control a webcam feed as well as capture that video, encode it and push it to my NAS every night. this use both the gpio and cpu/gpu.
>>107853043If i were to buy a woodworking kit and then complain that it doesn't have any uses cause i don't woodwork. I'd obviously get called a retard. This is similar. If you buy a board for prototyping or running low power computing tasks you don't get to complain that it doesn't have uses if you never wanted to do either.
Someone is trying to shut it down
Is something like arm hackintosh possible? How different is apple silicon from other arm processors?
>>107853120Technically of course but would be much harder.Apple Silicon is quite custom.
>>107853120the hack is getting a job
>>107853120Just buy a mac. You can get an M1 mac for like $700
Frutiger Aero
>>107847472what sorcery is this?
>>107852691>You overestimate the average user's computer knowledge back then.>Most people didn't know a damn thing about changing styles or any of that stuff.>They simply used the computer and it either worked or it was too laggy to function and it was therefore "broken".>There's a good reason why Mac pursued the angle of "it just works". They really understood the average consumer and grew rapidly because of it.It was literally 2 or 3 clicks away, but I agree that normies are fucking retarded.
>>1078526917 is just vista with a few years worth of hardware improvements available to it. Though I will admit 7 is the first windows where 64bit was taken seriously.
There's no such thing as "Frutiger Aero". It doesn't exist.
>>107853003It exists because I say so

why is brave so popular among normies? literally every irl normalfag i know has this shit installed and they always say the exact same lines like "this browser is better because it bocks ads by default" or "this browser is more secure and private" or "brave is better because it doesn't eat your ram and is faster"where did they learn this nonsense? they all look like brainwashed ignorants
>>107849621Imagine making technology decisions this dumbly
>>107849613getting adguard extension on your iphone would do the same shit for safari
>>107851996Not at all. PaleMoon doesn't even have pozz to begin with (biggest strength I'd say). Supermium is a 100% clean if you run it in portable mode with the --ungoogled-supermium switch (otherwise its more or less like regular chrome). On Android you get Privacy Browser which's a 100% pozz free and designed so from the ground up.
>>107849597Their favorite SlopTuber told them that, so they simply parrot his opinion as their own.
>>107849597Brave is great. Once that normalfags do the right thing and you decide to bitch about it?
Even decades later those damn office comics couldn't ring any truer. RIP Scott thanks for being useful! (That was his thing... like Red Green and being Handy.)

If you want a tablet and also want to draw, should you get an iPad or a Samsung tablet?
>>107852423Guess the "bloatware" was literal there hohohoSeems like Xiaomi was basically "passable" around the time I had one and has only gotten worse since.My mom still has sa Xiaomi phone and they put a fucking shop into the UI, I think she also had some indian app that auto-installed itself and sent her notifications. My phone was draining battery like crazy until I noticed that the Xiaomi gallery app was draining 50% of it just by endlessly running in the background, apparently when it was a bug that would make it get stuck in a loop when trying to read a corrupted file.Now that I think about it I'm probably best off never buying Xiaomi again
>drawFaggot, you don't need to "draw," and you're shit at it anyway. Just use AI now like the rest of human population
>>107852478some of us are drawn to a higher purpose
>>107852478Has it ever occurred to you that the actual process of drawing is fun?>"why play a video game? Just watch a walkthrough on youtube."
>>107852385I've heard that samsung + tablets (not the base model or the ultra, but the +) are closest to the size of a manga tankobon, if that matters to you.

>>107852844Gaymers won't notice the blur on their non-RGB subpixel layout OLED monitors anyway due to the pixel arrangement which makes everything look blurry.

Why did youngsters decide to ditch this website all of a sudden? It used to be THE social media website for the longest time but almost exclusively used by boomers these days.
>>107852694I registered in 2005, never used it, deleted it a few years later. Not a fan of LifeLog lite by DARPA
>>107852694It's cringe. Dry snitching and lack of opsec.
>>107852949Nowadays it's the same with Snapchat and Instagram, Facebook was the hot thing when I was still a middle schooler, they totally replaced it. I'm into college now, I've entered the nerd space (educated people) and barely anyone uses Snapchat and Instagram. Everyone is on discord, we have a discord for the entire major and everything is organized for each subject for each year, important announcements are for everyone, you can just lurk no one will hold it against you. First years still use Instagram though, but they fall off like flies because the major is tough as hell, proving that only dumbasses use Instagram or Snapchat.
>>107853036Is normiegram falling off or still King with the normies?I heard its turning into AI slop house as well and people are posting less content
>>107852694I recently logged back on my account after more than 10 years and I was shocked by the amount of illegal/disturbing content you can find on the global search. There are some kind of groups that seem straight out from some hidden network. I've no idea how they allow such content lol.
