Because they did it on every other item they sell with a screen and internet connection.

It's nitnjustbthatbthey show ads, it's that they track you and show you ads based on that data.

This is documented in the manual. Here is the solution. Can you please write a clearer entry, so the next person understands better, as you did not understand how I wrote it.

People are lazy. Make them do the work by asking and they will learn to do less work by checking the manual and not asking you.

That assumes absolute good and bad. Good can also have a relative meaning, when used for comparison.

You could say the same about some kleptocratic states too. Without the maintenance nor the reliability. It's about integrity and accountability whether it's state owned or government owned. The difference is motives for individuals involved. Capitalism values the profit motive. Public private partnerships value how it looks to voters, who are generally worse off as they pay more for what would be more efficient under government control. Having two competing is probably an attempt to get the best of both worlds.

From what I've seen, research and habits wisez those that grew up in the depression tended to be thrifty for life, always planning meals and avoiding waste. It was a hard habit to break after being hungry I'm sure. I haven't seen anything about their political leaning. I think community and helping people rated highly in values. Both sides of American politics would claim that as their values.

That's why people traditionally moved right as they aged. However, millennials are bucking the trend is the point.

It is also posited that as you age, you're more likely to have family and think about their immediate needs rather than society at large.

However, it can be just greed. The problem for conservatives is that they have tipped the balance so much that the divide is much greater and inequality greater, so they need to convince people to vote against their interests. The bottom 90% are far better off under more social measures.

Are millennials also the first generation to have lower standards of living than their parents? I think housing costs is the biggest part of that.

When he realised the feature exposed them, he pulled it.

That was my first thought, but hearing her statements, I think she's out. If she was pivoting to something else, I think she would have announced that instead.

They won't find someone so earnest. So, they might have less success. The sycophant won't be as high profile and therefornpesa powerful.

There is a third option. Trump is a fool with a brain of mush and Mamdani was just personable and vaguely flattering while sticking to his agenda. Trump believes whomever speaks to him.

 

When I go to a post with video media, on iPad, there doesn't seem to be a way to exit. For images, they can be swiped away or touch outside to exit. For videos, ice tried different gestures and there is no back button or X.

I use Android daily, with a back swipe gesture, but there is no such gesture I'm aware of on iPad. Does anyone know how or should I submit a bug or feature request?

 

I’m trying to set containers for some websites on a shared windows terminal with multiple users under the same login. We use some cloud software and each user has their own log in. Manually opening websites in container manager allows this, but I’m struggling to do so for opening in container for the home page.

Each log in just launches in the default container (unassigned). I’ve tried using bookmark tree, which seems to support containers, but I can’t get it to work. Assigning a site to always open in a container doesn’t seem to work either as it’s the same site for multiple users (which seems to be the purpose of multi account container), so if it always opens in container A, person B still needs to manually open in their container.

 

I just recently got the 190 update pushed. It mentioned lots of fixes. One was image handling.

I have found that now exiting an image is a bit slow or glitchy. A single gesture to go back does not exit and instead it needs two. Tapping an image instead still closes it but there is a delay that wasnt there before.

I'm on a pixel 7pro with gesture navigation.

 

My phone coverage stopped for a period. I was using connect at the time and a comment failed. I initially thought it was a big but noted after restarting, it still was out. Then I checked with a test search to find it was all internet.

A few minutes later internet was back. Went back into Lemmy and refreshed. No data showing. I checked down-for-me for my instance and it was up. Refreshed again. No data.

Again restarted app and it was fine then. So, it seems he connection outage did not allow refresh after it came back, despite a restart during the outage.
