Vimium. Allows you to use your keyboard to navigate instead of needing to always reach for the mouse.

Same, the physical camera button and 3.5mm headphone jack on the Xperia are awesome

That’s refreshing to see in a world of ever increasing enshittification. Wish more companies move in this direction.

This is what I try to tell people who just want the cheapest things possible. We’re voting with our dollars what kind of world we want.

Also, shipping things across the sea burns some of the worst fuel for the environment so I’d rather buy things made here and support the local economy whenever possible.

MSFT has a $3T market cap and $60B of free cash flow each year, so I doubt they’re hurting for money. This is how “growth at all costs” incentivizes myopic decision-making and doesn’t really help foster an environment where studios are willing to take creative risks. Even when they succeed (a la Hi-Fi Rush) they’re on the perpetual chopping block.

“The layoffs will continue until morale improves”

$6.4B for HashiCorp on the heels of $4.6B for Apptio and $34B for Red Hat back in 2018. I wonder how long until they expect each of these acquisitions to be accretive?

Recently moved over to porkbun after dealing with a couple billing issues with namecheap and not getting the best customer service. Been pretty happy so far.

They also recently won a deal with Rakuten Mobile to supply RAN equipment in Japan

Not sure what you are suggesting the better alternative would be? Scrap it? Whoever purchased the used vehicle could have bought a new car instead (which would have required more raw materials for processing).

One common issue I noticed among environmentalists is they argue with each other about what the perfect solution should be instead of just starting somewhere. Any progress is better than nothing at the rate the climate is changing and such progress tends to compound over time.

Great idea, jotted down a list of things I’ve found to be impactful over the past year, some of them overlap with what’s already been posted.

• Installed solar panels (according to my app, last year they produced enough MWh to equal 8.5 tons of CO2)

• Trade in our ICE car for an EV (in a year has avoided 5.5 tons of CO2)

• Insulated our house (attic and walls) coupled with double-pane windows. Cuts down on AC and furnace usage immensely and makes the house much more pleasant overall

• Prefer 100% cotton clothing/avoid synthetic materials

• Installed a Lint-Luv-R microplastic filter on our washing machine

• Shop at refillable container store and avoid single-use plastic where possible

• Eat more plant-based food, e.g. oat milk, rice, tofu, beans, noodles, etc.

• Install a rain diverter in our downspouts to collect rain water

• Reusable diapers if you have an infant/toddler. Diaper waste piles up fast

• Run/walk to the gym and grocery store

• Prefer items made in North America versus overseas (cargo ships burn bunker fuel )

• For coffee, I bring a travel cup and ask if they can fill that instead of a plastic cup (iced) or cup with a plastic lid (hot)

• Donate to reputable environmental organizations

• Replace landscaping with native plants, allow pollinators to do their thing

• Vote for the world you want to live in and pass on: with your time, dollar, and ballot

I’m glad you guys took a measured approach. This right here is the difference between a corporation and Lemmy. I can’t imagine a for-profit reversing its decision in the interest of the community unless it affected their bottom line or stock price. Hats off to the admin team for working through all these complex issues.
