An update in the last year added a "feature" where, when I search something, if my query is even vaguely close to the name of an app on my phone, Android will open that app instead of doing my search. I, for the life of me, haven't been able to figure out how to disable it. That alone made me hate Android.

He donated $3.1 million to his alma mater here in my city, and it was enough for the university to establish an animal studies program.

In 2018, someone maintaining a ROM site was ordered to pay Nintendo $12 million.

In late 2021, someone was sentenced to 10 years of prison and to pay Nintendo $14.5 million. That person got out on good behavior last April, but 25-30% of their wages are going to be garnished until their debt to Nintendo is paid off - which will likely take the rest of their life.

I realize that I'm in the great minority of Redditors with what I learned, but my experience modding on Reddit was enough to land me a job as a social media manager for a tech company, and I've worked my way up to director of communications from that. So, I learned actual career skills from Reddit.

This is Seth's true passion project. I feel like he would make more seasons if given the chance, but with Disney looking at cuts, I fear for it.

Same reason here. I convinced both of my parents to get Chromebooks over the last few years, and the number of "service calls" I get from them have dropped drastically.

I know that Lemmy is years old, but as this is my first day on the platform, it feels like a whole new world.
