As an OSX user I had problems with VS Code only on 2 occasions:
1. Syntax highlighting gives up on larger files. What can be considered "large" depends on your machine of course. In this situation I use Sublime Text.
2. I worked on a web frontend that used React MUI (Material UI). That particular version of MUI & VScode combo didn't work at all. Intellisense would slow the editor down to where it was barely usable. That was a couple of years ago, never seen this issue again.
For people not using CSS a lot, vh is a little tricky on mobile. I guess that's what's behind "kind of" in the parent comment. It has to do with the fact that the viewport size changes as you start scrolling down [0]
Same here. I cannot stand using touch interface to do anything other than lightweight web browsing. I found an XBox One wireless controller worked wonders with my iPad for gaming.
I avoid restaurants/shops where touchscreen is used for odering food. I simply go elsewhere. Order on a giant screen is both awkward (UIs are tend to be tuned to be flashy rather than functional) and disgusting.
How long do you keep such cars? Also, 5/6 years old depending on mileage & make is usually the time for some expensive part replacements. Eg. water pump, thermostat & related sensors for BMW F30.
I drive a 2006 diesel VW Beetle. I've had it for 7 years and aside from some electrical weirdness I've only had to change the oil. It cost me $6500. the infotainment system is a CD player with an aux cable. Amazing value.
(this car pre-dates the emissions scandal, I checked.)
Do the expensive part replacements even get close to the price difference of getting a new car? What if you try to account for insurance and maintenance?
I kept one car for 11 years. I was doing very little km. I bought my current car 3 years ago. I'm doing more km now. Maybe my next car has already been sold. I'm not liking what I see around. At least the lower end cars I buy have less enshittyfication inside. My friend's Mercedes and BMWs are a nightmare. They want to do too much and in their own way. They (and their manufacturers) should accept that they are only tools like a screwdriver.
Hey EU, can you please ask BMW to open everything up to its rivals so that I can use Toyota's infotainment system instead of BMW's iDrive. I also want to be able to run PS games on XBox & vice versa without having to buy separate copies.
And lastly, how about you open up your very own market to everyone by lifting protectionist taxes
That's exactly my sentiment. The main issue with this, it's like telling Apple how to do their job. Like , "you guys don't know how to build hardware and software that works really well together"
It's well meaning but ultimately flawed. So long as humanity works "competitively" instead of sharing technology for the greater good - companies like Apple are the good guys, not the bad guys. They are trying to make the best products they can THEIR way because that's how this competitive market works.
So now EU is like "no no no you don't understand how to make good products, in fact you have no identity - you just build hardware and let people do whatever the F they want with it¨
They bought it while fully aware of those shortcomings. It’s like people buying cheap land next to an airport, building a house, complaining about the aircraft noise.
I live in one of the myriad of countries in the eu, so I'm confused about what you mean when you say protectionist taxes and which country you are referring to or just something else?
You either have a set of values, or you do not. The EU claims outwardly to have the values of being pro-privacy and pro-competition for healthy consumer markets.
However, these 2 supposed "values" only seem to come into play when it comes to regulating foreign tech companies that it cannot produce domestic competitors for.
The EU has loads of anti-competitive protectionist legislation, and re: privacy, the EU is in fact strongly considering legislation to ban encryption domestically as we speak. You can bet GDPR would not exist if Silicon Valley was located in the Rhine Valley.
Clearly these are not values. They are simply the amoral moves of opportunistic market participants (politicians), just like the companies being regulated.
This is not bad, this is just reality. But any claims of moral high-ground should be rightly shot down for what they are (BS).
The EU claims to be pro-privacy and pro-competition internally :-)
I don't even know where you got that angle wrong, the EU CAP is renowned as a protectionist measure, and it's a core EU component. It's just an example.
> You can bet GDPR would not exist if Silicon Valley was located in the Rhine Valley.
That would be really nice, allow ps store on xbox(if they want) and viceversa
And for car infotainment that would be a godsend. Classic car companies do a terrible job with their infotainment systems
I'm hoping for smartwatch revision too: almost all smartwatches don't allow sideload/alternate stores(well technically you can, but cumberstone) or even firmware replacement
The "protectionist taxes" are the way the U.E. give a chance to local corps against exported of slave-labor, which two of the world's biggest exporters are quite fond of.
It doesn't matter that they don't call it slave labor locally, label don't change the facts.
I hope you're not referring to the US and H1B workers, because if so, wait until you learn how hard it is to immigrate to the EU and how bad the situation of immigrant workers is here. These people would love to have something like H1B available here in EU. As an EU citizen, I feel very bad about the stuff we do to immigrants, and I hate how there's a class of unequal not-citizens among us, doing the dirtiest jobs the high EU society doesn't like to do.
It starts with access to healthcare insurance, for example. Try to get it as a non-permanent resident (who's not attending a school)! You have to have a job, there's no option to pay for yourself - unlike the US, where it's expensive but possible.
I'm talking about 1% of the adult population being in prison, I'm talking about the 13th amendment and slavery, and I'm talking about 'for profit' prisons.
Any country that has incentives (here they are economics and race related) toward increasing prison population is one a citizen should be very wary of.
Depriving someone of their liberties should ALWAYS be a significant cost for the government doing it.
Right? I'd also like to have an alternative to the EU parliament. And an alternative to my local tax office. Let's stop the monopoly on the government services. Open it all up.
It's an interesting project but the website is full of statements that range from strange to downright false.
1. The comparison to React's ListBox is unfair until you reach feature parity.
2. The "nue levels of speed" makes it look like Nue the tool beats the hell out of the competition but then in small text it says it's a comparison of the project home pages. Why would anyone care about the size of the project home page?
3. The whole section on Tailwind in the FAQ is just false.
