You can actually fix this in the settings there’s an option for permanent prompt tunings and you can add things like “focus on concise answers” or my favorite " i don’t need to be glazed , I don’t need to be told that it’s an insightful question or reaches the heart of the matter. Just focus on answering the question"

The implication is that it’s because most doorbell companies will happily sell your data and likely gave them access to a constant unending stream of doorbell footage

I think you misunderstand. They are making technical decisions that are incompatible with ux decisions. In order to make a better user experience they would need to change how the protocol was made, thus undoing thing that they chose for technical reasons.

Like the way they chose to do the custom emoji makes sense on a technical level for a de Federated protocol but it also is fundamentally incompatible with a good user experience. Same with the forest verification of devices that’s bad ux even if it is technically better

No it doesn’t, matrix was designed by people with no concept of ux. It focuses on things that are technically correct but something average people won’t put up with. Like the forced verification of devices, normal people don’t care and don’t understand what that even is and will be annoyed that every time they try to log in they are prompted to insert a stupid key just so that they can see their chat history.

Doesn’t help that tons of the clients especially the web one can’t be bothered to remember being authenticated and you have to do it literally every time but even with that fix just having to do that in general is going to put people off.

Then there’s just a bunch of base protocol stuff that’s dumb the way they finally implemented custom emoji is the stupidest thing I’ve ever seen and makes what should be a simple easy click to add a sticker and then use it turn into this complicated mess that nobody’s going to bother with. On a technical level it made sense sure but on a user experience level it makes no sense at all.

And I say this is someone that self-hosts basically anything I can get my hands on, I’ve got Seafile, immich, piped, jellyfin, microbin, among various others. I keep trying matrix and keep finding myself getting annoyed enough to stop using it

Someone should really let the people over at matrix.org know that, the messaging is very clearly aimed at normal users.

The problem is that there isn’t really anywhere to Exodus to. I already know people here on Lemmy are going to say Matrix but that’s just not an option. It’s trash, the protocol was designed by idiot neck beards that have never heard the term UX. Pretty much everything was done in a way that while technically speaking is efficient makes it unbelievably tedious to actually use and in some cases just outright annoying ensuring that users will never want to use it. Most recent example is forcing device verification, it is technically correct, it is better from a security standpoint it is better from a verifiability standpoint. But for the average user who could not give less of a shit about that it is nothing more than something that pisses them off and annoys them every single time they open the application because despite the fact that they should be remembering at least in my testing it almost never does and I have to put in my stupid key every single God damn time especially if I’m using it in the browser.

Teamspeakers trying to rebuild itself to be more Discord like but it’s still in early beta and not at all ready for it so that’s not an option, and everything else is pretty much either just as shit or just as likely to implement this tomorrow as Discord

This functionality is built-in to bitwarden, they can safely check your entire vault for known breaches

Greatly depends on the question being asked. Some questions actually talking to someone would like to yield better information but there are a lot of subjects where I’m going to get vastly better information from Google.

It’s because people lack the ability to subjectively look at all possible aspects of life. They latch on to one thing that’s better and say that means the entire country is better. For example China objectively has better public transportation and infrastructure around things like internet and cellular despite also being an absolutely massive land mass. Pretty much anywhere has objectively better health care than the USA. So if those things have been causing them grief lately in their life they are going to latch on to that and declare that the country that has the better that is better in general even if there are other aspects not related to those subjects that would ultimately make life much worse

Literally always have my volume at maximum have never seen this particular screen. Sometimes I’ve seen just the basic toast notification that they don’t recommend raising the volume more but I can just keep pressing the button to raise it anyway i’ve never seen a full last screen going about a limit

This is such a weird problem for me, because i don’t like just believing what people say. Crowd mentality is bad and almost always missing information or just outright wrong. however, in this instance, i dont WANT to see the proof/evidence either. And elon is a POS so I guess I’m just defaulting to assuming it’s true on this one

I mean if i could get paid the same or more I’d absolutely pick the dildo

Wasn’t diverse enough to meet quota

See my comment further down, I’ve actually done what I can for my own footprint. Arguably more than most. I’ll vote for change when it’s possible and I’ll encourage others to make a little changes here and there.

I’m just not going to let it become an obsession and ruin my life because ultimately in the end it won’t matter human greed will always ruin it. I’m happy enough just making sure I’m not part of the problem as much as possible

My recommendation is to do what you can personally and then not let it ruin your life. I moved my house to offgrid, I’m fully solar for my electric I don’t use any gas and I don’t burn wood I just built enough solar and Battery to be fully electric.

In the process of finishing up rainwater collection and filtration to cover my water needs luckily I live somewhere with a good amount of rainfall that I should be able to pretty much fully cover my water might need a little bit of groundwater to fill the gaps here and there but not much.

I do drive a car but it’s a tiny little smart fortwo, i can fit two of them in a standard parking spot and they get over 40 miles to the gallon. Absolutely everything in my kitchen from my plates to my cups to my bowls to my utensils are all stainless steel so no generation of microplastics from them. I’ve done everything I realistically can to reduce my own footprint and I will vote in favor of improvement when it’s possible and I will encourage others to do what they can as well. But I will ultimately accept that nothing will truly affect anything in the long run human greed will always ruin everything

No matter what system you use, humans will ultimately ruin it. Regardless of how many it takes to ruin it. Throughout history, long before capitalism, every and all systems eventually fail when put against humans

And who created capitalism? Humans. Checkmark atheists

Misato description

Because propaganda has convinced people that a car is useless if it can’t go 300+mi AND only take a few minutes to be ready to do it again. Range anxiety, even though they only fill up maybe once a week and could easily charge an ev at home with just a standard outlet not even a special charger and keep up with their actual real daily use

I’m very curious what political message shapez is sending. It’s a factory building game that takes place in a seeming void where magical shapes appear out of nowhere and then simply get thrown into what appears to be a black hole there’s no particular discernible story or message just a fun puzzle
