Not to mention both buttons are on the same side on Pixels. This means I have to do this awkward gesture where I wrap my left hand around the back to press the power button, then press the volume button with my right hand.
On iPhone, I pinched.
To say Android is objectively better than iPhone is a huge stretch. Maybe in the old days when phones still had rear fingerprint scanners.
The answer is half of 3, so 1.5
The solution is to use it as a decoration piece
But then this cup requires (approximately) ten times the amount of water to clean than the average cup.
Dishwashers use less than a tenth of the water compared to hand washing. This is because they recycle water, and only drain it after debris is removed from the plates, then drained and replaced. Repeat. All in all, it only uses a few gallons.
It’s easier, more efficient, and more sanitary. The same is true for washing machines for the same reason. If you want to criticise dryers, fine, but washers are all better than hand washing.
Also why are the posts and comments so surreal
I don’t recognise the walled garden problem, because I’m on macOS, where software walled gardens do not exist. In other words, scarecrow. I’ve installed whatever the hell I wanted on there. It’s also confusing to single out macOS (which has better third-party repos than Windows by absolute leagues), when iOS is right there.
So criticise Apple for being anti-repair and anti-competitive. Ah, but Apple being anti-repair is parroted just as much as Windows being garbage.
Welp, gotta be angry at something, today. Fuck [POPULAR COMPANY PRODUCT], and let’s go on with our day.
MAJOR EDIT: Forgive me, I am tired. I also don’t regularly use different keyboard layouts on different OSes. I need to clarify terminal shortcuts.
Control-C is how you terminate a process on terminal in macOS. I need to denote this as ^C, as such a key does not exist on traditional layouts. Cmd-C is copy. It is always copy, even on terminal (on Linux, you also have to hold shift).
If you use a Windows keyboard on macOS, your shortcut is now copy. After all, you are pressing Ctrl-C, so why wouldn’t it be copy? Termination is now probably done with Alt-C.
If you’re using Mac layout, none of this seems weird. I use a Mac layout on a Mac–all makes sense. If you don’t, then stuff gets wack. Not a macOS issue. More of a “we’ve been using this layout for fifty years and changing it would be stupid at this point” sort of thing.
Not perfect, but none of this reads as annoying as a full screen advertisment telling me to upgrade to an OS that I know has incredibly invasive spyware.
EDIT: The “delete” key on macOS keyboards is backspace. The key should be treated as such. The delete key on other keyboards is in a separate location with a separate purpose, and should not be seen the same on Macs just because it shares a name. I’ve never used a full size keyboard on macOS, so I don’t know how the forward-delete key works. If that doesn’t delete files in one go, that might be annoying… but not the other way around.
It’s not a criticism of macOS because it broadly describes all Apple hardware. Swap in “iPhone”, and nothing changes. A valid point to criticise macOS is in its constant deprecation of software (such as OpenGL), or how additional software is required to match some Windows features (less true now).
This ignores that macOS is, otherwise, the best non-libre OS. Changing the default browser changes the default browser. Spotlight search is fast and versatile, making Windows’ modern start menu look like a joke. Trackpad support is unmatched. Logic Pro and Final Cut remain industry leaders. Most importantly, it’s usually pretty damn fast, and free of ads.
Outside of gaming, there is not a single reason to use Windows over macOS–maybe if you enjoy suffering. With Linux distros officially being a better gaming medium than Windows, at least macOS still has a use case. It’s the perfect OS for people adapted to Apple’s style of workflow, which I’ve found to be a good one. Else, you can use NixOS, or Arch, or Gentoo… but never Windows.

My instance doesn’t support downvoting, so here you go.
Last I checked, it was 1243
EDIT: 1306 currently
ANOTHER EDIT: Now it’s 1451. The hell is happening…
Catastrophically high number
Saw the link and was like “ah, fuck”. Love the good ol’ “ah, fuck”, that doesn’t happen for me too often.
Here’s a better one
Most modern open world games are, or at least take some inspiration. It’s why I think the “Assassin’s Creed clone” argument is ridiculous, since the argument is selectively applied. Horizon remains one of the best executions of an open world.
They’re similar by virtue of being open world. There’s an early area that cannot be exited, similar to the Great Plateau. Tallnecks are towers you climb to expand map visibility, Cauldrons are major (optional) dungeons not unlike large shrines, some enemy bases are scattered about the map, range combat is generally similar feeling (outside of Horizon’s expanded arsenal). There’s a lot of overlap.
The major difference is the story unravelling, where BotW simply hands you the final quest. It’s more like TotK in terms of progression, but the main story is mandatory. From a replayability standpoint, Zelda has a leg up here, but I care more about blind playthroughs–Horizon wins the contest handily. Zelda has a strong emphasis on resources, where I think it has a more engaging harvesting system. Else, Horizon doesn’t have a photos or glyphs storyline analogue, or any koroks, but it does have vantage points for data logs, and scattered collectibles to be traded for rewards.
I don’t know why people think soap would be made out of drones
