  • No company holds themselves back from viable improvement because of a timeline thrown out at the beginning. What a weird take.

    What is more likely “nope wecan’t make a change yet, this better product is out on every other peice of tech we and our competitors used, but someone said 10 years 2 years ago so we’re gonna wait another 6 to begin development”

    Or

    “This product is so serviceable enough for charging a phone and as long as we keep it we can continue to make significant money off of proprietary connectors”

    They upgraded the iPad because the lightening was no longer a viable charging cable, the tech couldn’t keep up. And the EU has been threatening to establish a standard since the 30pin was in service, because it locked out competition back then. It became a serious issue to deal with after dongles became standard.

    Edit: Oh God it’s you. 4 days later and another hot shit take. Apparently I need to block you to improve my lemmy experience.



  • Every person who goes by an American name because their real name is just to hard for their American friends, Co workers and neighbors to pronounce. Pretty much everyone in the US who says Cordon blue, Ganache, bolognese, prosciutto, Bon Marché, Coq au Vin, Verde, the name Guy, and dozens of other things I can name off the top of my head.

    The customization on sync gets me so damn close to what I had with relay that I’m just happy.

    I used others, but they were heavily inspired by Apollo and the customization to make them closer to my muscle memory wasn’t there. I’m happy to pay a talented developer who can give me my preferred experience.

    And I really don’t get this raging choosing beggar entitlement to people labor for free
