That’s how I react to those bubbles. It means any image I send is going to be compressed to shit and be utterly unrecognizable. Messages will sent out of order or not at all. Group chats are completely fucked.

I’m sure Apple shares a lot of the blame, but holy shit how is this not solved in 2024. I shouldn’t have to resort to spam filled shitware from Meta to get remotely modern messaging cross platform

Hope rcs pans out and soon

This is very sad. Don’t let your cats outside.

You had the option to not post this

Just stopping by to say that I understood the obvious sarcasm/joke

Why are we still like this? Just a bunch of primitive apes pummeling each other

Same :)

Honestly, I thought the same! I primarily use DDG, but when that doesn’t cut it, I go use my Kagi free trial of 100 searches. It’s lasted me months at this point, which is a testament to DDG and Kagi tbh. DDG for getting me there 99% of the time, and Kagi for delivering on the rest, with the bonus of being customizable and privacy focused. When the trial runs out, I will likely purchase the lowest tier so I can mix it in more bc the result quality is truly higher and it actually LISTENS to my quotes and + & - terms. You may not do as many searches as you think, and for throwaway searches, DDG is probs good enough.

Im a dev & my entire job is googling shit basically, so it’s worth it for me to get quality results without dealing with the bullshit AI SEO wasteland

Hatch appears to roll in some pyenv features too, installing and using various python versions.

Edit: Rye does too!

Poetry sounds pretty similar too

No I agree with you, but I also think the actions of the USA are not exactly irrelevant

It depends! Obviously the US isn’t entirely at fault. After our shenanigans there was like permanent war in the region (also mostly the US) which never helps. The destabilizing effects are still present and can be traced back to the US in no small part.

Slavery was outlawed over 100 years ago in the US yet we are still dealing with the ramifications. Stuff doesn’t just happen in a vacuum

edit: I should also note the US propped up a dictator who was corrupt and overthrown by religious zealots. They have been ruled by extremists ever since. It seems like a direct connection to me ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

The CIA installed a religious zealot dictator… idk why you’re being downvoted lol. Let’s all just pretend the CIA hasn’t been fucking up democratically elected governments for almost a century

preeeetty sure they’re joking since the reason trump is in this situation is an anti communist law

AMAZING. Bless you

cmatrix too!

But they put a filter on the cigarettes! Surely it’s better now

For real… like Mr. Putin sir, we don’t want Russia. In fact, I must insist that you keep it

The tiling looks awesome. May have to give this a try

I can’t be satisfied!

Exactly. We only know they aren’t being fully forthcoming. We don’t know the reasons and can only infer. The BBC stopped short of drawing conclusions and merely fact checked the statements they were given. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
