Okay, I agree 30MB isn’t a big deal, but that’s not really an argument not to optimize. The entire Debian Stable mirror for example has like 70,000 packages in it. Let’s say all of those packages took the position that “A few extra MB doesn’t matter.” If each one had just 1 extra MB that is 70GB of extra bloat. If each one had 2 extra MB that is 140GB of extra bloat. If each one had 30MB of extra bloat that is 2.1TB of extra bloat. Now obviously thats a very unrealistic, and extreme, example, but the point is that with a super complex operating system things add up. We should appreciate the nit picky little dudes who yell over 30MB because they’re probably responsible in part for a good bit of cumulative extra disk space for the rest of us.
The raising people out of poverty GOAT, my eternal King, may he only know good things.

4·22 hours agoI mean for me personally this is worse because I will not make a discord account so the content is still unusable but now my search results are full of detritus.

What a weird way to put it. I’d argue Europe doesn’t exist. It’s a pureply political distinction. It’s just far west asia. Or Eurasia if you want to be a bit inclusive.

22·1 day agoI actually go further personally. Afro-Eurasia is a single supercontinent. The Americas are a single continent. Oceania is one (Not just Australia but all the large islands out that way), and Antarctica. So I’d say we have 4. Then lots of subcontinents.

10·1 day agoI’m confused how this will work tho. If I click on a search result that goes to discord will it take me to somewhere I can see it? I don’t have a discord account. If it going to just take you to a login screen? I can’t click reddit results anymore since they block VPN traffic without an account. So it seems like search results are just becoming less useful.

1·2 days agoNah. If your rich and not white there are still major downsides. It’s definitely more important how much money you have these days, but like, racism is still extremely common.

2·2 days agobut they’re not synonyms either lol. Insurance is a very specific thing. It doesn’t just mean “Anytime you collectivize costs” or “a safety net”. It’s a specific business model used to cover specific losses of specific things.

politics @lemmy.world•Democrats Release 50-Page Report on Trump’s Epstein Files Cover-Up
2·2 days agoYeah I’ve seen that but I’ve also seen in the files how apparently theres a bunch of rich co-conspirators that were never charged during that investigation. So I don’t really buy the excuse. I think both of the US parties are implicated and so it’s always going to be the one out of power talking about it. And they’ll never actually release everything.

Technology@lemmy.world•Some iPhone Duo screens are already failingEnglish
1·2 days agoNot the person you asked but yes actually. I never want more screen on my phone. I barely use it. I have the Pixel because it can run Graphene OS, and I want that, but if I could run Graphene on it I’d want something smaller. It’s so annoying to carry the thing around. I use my phone to test and call people. And to use organic maps and gps to tell me when my next turn is. Basically nothing else. Altho if people want to use their phone as their everything device then they’re free to I guess. Just not for me. So I’d never want a folding one.
