I'm beautiful and tough like a diamond...or beef jerky in a ball gown.

  • I do wonder what the refresh rate is like on these. I've been daily driving a Minimal Phone for a few months now. While I like it, it definitely took some getting used to. While it's actually quite snappy, it feels abysmally slow even compared to the Cat S22 Flip it replaced (which is a low-end Android smartphone in a flip phone form factor).

    I also wonder why they bothered with a camera on it. The camera on the Minimal is extremely "meh", but the thing that makes it mostly useless is the refresh rate of the e-ink. You never know if you got a blurry mess of a picture or what. The firmware will put the screen into "fast refresh / low fidelity" mode to try to improve it, but it's still a roll of the dice when trying to take any kind of photo. About the only thing it's good for is scanning QR codes.

  • America is slacking as of late.

    The fuck I am! 😆

    How do you think I've been coping with....gestures vaguely in all directions?

  • [Giancarlo Esposito Meme]

    I think billionaires shouldn't exist because we should have appropriate levels of taxation and a "maximum wage" law.

    Lemmy thinks billionaires shouldn't exist and are setting up guillotines.

    We are not the same.

  • I think that's what I'm going to try.

  • There were a bunch of Golden Girls crossovers a while back, so figured this was up a similar alley.

  • Yeah, I've decided I'm just gonna splurge the ~$30 and buy a 4 GB model and see how it goes.

  • "Uh, Reverend Meechum! What a pleasant surprise. If I'd have known you were stopping by, I would have made tea."

  • I drove fast through what I thought was just a puddle. Splashed a bunch of water up under my car, and my dashboard looked like that for a week lol.

  • Sounds like at least a minor improvement. Can those me moved and still work? Like, if I move the project folder, do I have to reinitialize it and download all the packages again?

  • For me, it's the rigid and wonky virtual environments. I get why they're useful and necessary, but they're awkward to use. Like, Node just works from the working directory with no fuss and python has to be all source {venv}/bin/activate and lord help you if you need to move it.

    Plus, I have never liked that the spacing is load-bearing.

  • You're empathizing with the troll, too? 👀

    FYI: What the troll is describing is not required all. I don't know what they're on about, but I've used ldap-js in many projects without having to do any of that.

  • For the longest time (relatively speaking), I would do full stack Javascript (like the meme). But I have to frequently tie into AD/LDAP and the only decent NodeJS library for LDAP is no longer maintained because the community was shitty to the dev. Now I've had to venture out into Go (I can't stand working in Python).

    Let this be a reminder to be nice to the developers who are giving you their hard work for free.

  • Why would that be relevant or allowed in a politics community? Fuckin' lemmy.world, I tell you what.

    Because rule 1 there is "Post only links to articles? Geesh. It's not like that's been a rule for 2+ years and the community a place to discuss actual articles.

  • When I was younger, I'd have thrown my support behind this.

    Now that I'm older and world-wiser, I'm much less on board with that. Cannabis? Fine. Heroin? Whatever, you do you. Cocaine? Absolutely not. Not that I'm against cocaine, it's just that people on cocaine are really, really annoying.

  • Unfortunately, our WAF appliances don't have a Heisenberg compensator.

  • "I get why we have a WAF, but can't you just, like, separate the good SQL injection from the bad SQL injection?" -- Developers I work with 😆

  • Thanks :)

    My home instance has some top-shelf custom emojis, so I try to use them. Janeway's eye roll gets a lot of mileage.

  • Agh. Beat me to it. 😆

  • I work with several people who would think this is a good idea.

    When they push it to prod, and our WAF goes 403 on every request, then suddenly it's my problem to "fix".
