I guess you could see it that way, but web views are inherent in mobile operating systems, they don’t need to be bundled into your app, so capacitor apps aren’t big bloated memory consuming applications like electron apps are. There’s a lot of well made apps running on capacitor that you wouldn’t even know, especially if you use something like ionic framework to actually have the look and feel of native mobile apps.
Jetbrains moved away from the purchase version model and to an actual monthly/yearly subscription model a very long time ago. I don’t even think you can buy their products anymore, they’re literally subscription models, no longer buy versions then get updates for a year sort of thing. You either pay them and have access or don’t and lose it.
Look, you’ve already got the best audiobook player. The problem you’re having now is sourcing, the solution is to get a MyAnonymouse account. They do open registrations fairly often and it’s literally the easiest private tracker to keep up with. You may not want to torrent, but I don’t think you’re gonna find a better way to get the selection you want. MAM really is the best.
I don’t understand why it needs to be electric bikes vs electric cars when it should be electric vehicles vs non-renewable fuels. Electric bikes have the same problems as electric cars, just on a slightly smaller scale. The rubber in their tires causes microplastics, they’re fueled by electricity which may come from non-clean sources. They have more down sides, like not as many people can use them at once, you’re not gonna see people in rural areas adopting them - or most places in the US - because of the distance required to get to a store or whatever.
I think infighting here is stupid.
You jumped into this conversation, friend.
Google does keep Mozilla alive, but it wouldn’t have to if it weren’t a monopoly. Since it does monopolize the market, it has to keep Mozilla alive or face monopoly busting action. The money Google makes comes from ads, but not the money Mozilla makes.
Also, unlike you, my browser isn’t directly controlled by Google’s every whim.
Disney plus has a decent bit of solid content. By saying this you don’t sound edgy and cool like you think you do, you sound dated. It’s okay to accept that Disney makes decent content, they have enough money to. It’s also okay to not like their content. But pretending you’re an ancient ass ostrich with your head in the sand is just cringe.
Strong disagree. It’s much easier to reliably find things on Usenet and I don’t have to worry about even using a VPN. I’ve received ISP complaints using torrents, nothing at all from Usenet (and it’s unlikely I ever will, given the nature of how usenet works). Also I don’t have to worry about seeding or anything like that (which is why it’s unlikely I’ll receive a complaint letter).
Usenet is the answer to finding content reliably and it’s so, so easy.
As the other person sarcastically implied, these sites are intentionally split to make it more difficult to take them all down at once. When one goes down another can pop up, and in the mean time the others are there, on and on forever.
