Btw ... if you where wondering ... I created my Mastodon account a couple of years ago ... https://t.co/xnkEtSLMkc - Follow me there as it looks it's finally happening over there π
@siracusa Brazil has ordered Apple to ship their phones with chargers because there is no real evidence that there is a environmental gain and because it's consumer hostile... If it where USB C I guess it would be less of a problem π
.. and for the human eye argument... Google Play never had that human eye - and all the protections ... So it's closer to what you imagine for the Apple AppStore. I'm not arguing one is better than the other, just that's it's already done at scale - no guessing needed
@siracusa hi, about the bootstrapping of sideloading... Fortnite was only available as a sideloaded app on Android (as Epic didn't want to pay Google as well) and gave in after a couple of months ... It didn't work at scale.. just a real world big example π
@jeffjarvis Just heard you on twit talking about who invented the typewriter... It was actually invented multiple times, but the first was in South Tyrol... https://t.co/zOTDnu1oLJ ... It worked like a dot matrix printer
I have a new side project/passion - Gravel Bike Riding ... and since it's hard to find good routes - I launched https://t.co/jk0cMY8XyS - If you are in Germany and interested join up - say it to your cycling friends ... or follow @graveldeluxe for updates - thx
@siracusa atp421... Google photos does a very good job in deduplication of Photos... I reuploaded plenty of Photos by just dropping whole folders again and again if something went wrong and it just picked up the new ones.
I've been using Netlify and in celebration of them welcoming 1 million developers, I found my unique spot! I'm number #311,433!

@marcoarment (atp401) .. you can actually simulate wide angle photos with the Brenizer Method - and you get more megapixels and and shallower DOF ... It's basically a panorama π
I tried @Hellofresh here in Germany five years ago and liked it but it wasn't the right fit. Now it's great to get me to cook something different... And the service has gotten better. Btw the vegetarian options are the more interesting meals π
