I haven't read the article OP linked but this CBS article I read mentioned that the case was essentially dropped as prosecutors didn't feel good about it, but after Duane "Keffe D" Davis started doing talk shows and released his book, they felt the case against him got strong enough to prosecute.

Thanks for all your work LJ, it's clear the value we get from having you be able to dedicate so much time to working on Sync. Love seeing so much improvement to an already great app.

I'm especially happy for the PipedLinkBot feature and profile overview.

Edit: now that the update has shown up on my end and I've tried the new features, I'd like to add that I slightly misunderstood what the PipedLinkBot would do, any chance we could have an option for those comments to be collapsed by default instead of hidden?

Not quite the same as the current comments by Toto/Hamilton since the roles were a bit different (i.e.: Verstappen hadn't won a championship yet). And the Toto/Hamilton ones have been more direct. But yes, he's made similar comments. Their rivalry is not new and tbh I'm quite shocked anyone is surprised by any of this situation.

Just in recent years, he's made the following comments:

• 2020 - "90% of the field could win in the Mercedes"
• 2021 - "Hamilton hasn't had a real title fight in years"

I remember some harsher ones but the current headlines keep coming up when I try to search for them, I'll have to give it another go when I'm back at my computer later (if I remember).

Just fyi, M. in French is only equivalent to Mr, it's short for Monsieur. Mme (short for Madame) is equivalent to Mrs, and Mlle (short for Mademoiselle) is equivalent to Miss/Ms.

So using M. for everyone is equivalent to saying Mr. for everyone.

I loved SCC, it was such a great show that didn't get the attention it deserved.

"I Guess"

I mean, yeah, obviously the dev would rather people pay the subscription when some of the Ultra features require server work and/or continued costs (translation, OCR, etc.).

Developing Sync is his full time job, which is why it initially shipped without a lifetime tier. People voiced their opinion and the dev listened by adding the lifetime option and the ad free option. If you don't like the pricing, use a different app. Nobody is forcing you to use Sync. LJ doesn't owe you the app for free (or any price outside of what he feels is fair).

In case anyone didn't want to open the article, the feature is improved image quality due to AMD's FSR2 on PlayStation being used over 2x MSAA on Xbox.

There's also a slightly different gamma on PlayStation, combined with the different anti-alliasing it results in cleaner looking frames. The article has side by side comparisons as well.

I would normally be inclined to agree but this isn't one of those "omg I just had the most intelligent conversation with my 4-yo today".

It's clearly someone sharing their hobby/job with their niece, and what better way to do that than by including them in a practical aspect. It also literally says they "helped her as she's 4 years old".

You commenting is only bringing more attention to the post by increasing the comment count so maybe reevaluate your approach in the future if you're so against wholesome content.

So happy to have the sync icon back in its spot on my homescreen! Thanks LJ!!

And when we are troubleshooting, we'll be searching "crackpipe _____"... I can definitely think of a few scenarios where that'll return very different results than expected.

Completely agree, having a memorable name is important but that doesn't mean the name should be a joke.
