Enshittification strikes again

Hopefully the UX improves. Last time I tried Bitwarden it was so much worse than 1 Password.

Ah yeah that’s not a mod action. That’s a Reddit site-wide thing on the admin side of things or some automated system they have. Subreddit mods had nothing to do with that.

I used to mod two pretty large subs (iirc something like a combined ~400k subscribers) and we had no way to detect ban evasion other than the user being stupid and obviously giving themselves away (eg. “fuck you mods, I’ll just keep making new accounts”). This was fairly recently and I left the site and quit modding about a month after they pulled the API bullshit and booted Apollo and other apps.

So unless reddit added additional tools for mods, your story doesn’t quite add up here.

Lol these people are so trashy

Yeah and none of the switch emulator stuff I’ve seen comes bundled with the firmware. You have to track that down separately or dump your own from your Switch.

This sure looks like like a slapp suit to me.

Totally disagree with you. VR even in its currently pretty early stages is an absolute blast. Some of the most fun I’ve had gaming any time recently has been on a Quest 2.

When the technology does another 5-10 years of advancing it’s going to be absolutely huge.

And to your point about old people not getting tech, my grandmother and mom both love VR and play games and do workouts on Quest together. They actually use them more than I do.

I wonder if in the context of storing 200 TB whether the added cost now makes sense given what a comparable SSD or HDD equivalent would run.

Yeah if you watch the iFixit tear down it’s obvious these things are just packed to the gills with tech. I’m not mega surprised they ended up costing so much. It’s really bleeding edge.

That said it’s way too expensive for me to get on board and I think they made some poor choices. Especially the outer display. The amount of weight, battery drain, fragility, and (presumably) expense that display alone added is just plain dumb. And it looks a lot worse IRL than in their videos.

I also think the aluminum looks great but I wonder how much lighter the headset would be if it were plastic without the outer display and glass.

Ah fair enough did not catch that. As someone who bike commuted in Seattle for years, they’re insane.

This is Seattle so unless he’s only delivering on the 1 light rail line they have, it’s gonna almost definitely be by car.

Yeah as I have already written the site off, at this point I just kinda wanna see how bad it gets how fast.

you just know this dude has some fucked up skeletons in his closet

Read: that means things are gonna get much worse around here

The pressure sensitive trackpad has been a home run, nobody has better trackpads. Period.

But yeah the touchbar was pretty meh and poorly supported and ended up being half baked in the long run.

Also one of the firsts to go all in on USBC on a laptop. Sure they spun their wheels on mobile but I gotta give them props for taking the plunge in their computers. Lotta people bitched about it but it needed to happen.

They really seem to have lost any semblance of vision

I take some solace in the fact that they really mistimed the market for tech stocks. And it doesn’t look like the interest rate money printer is cutting back on this year, so that should majorly kneecap them on this.

Gross, no thanks. The whole point of the IPO is so Huffman and all the other schmucks there with piles of equity can finally get their big pay day. Fuck the lot of them.
