I actually thought it was like a reset button, like when using a browser, pressing home would put you into your home page. If the name was start, like end, I may have tried to actually use it for text editing.
And those who don’t want to translate it, “Home” is “Mold” in Finnish, a running joke that the button is never used lol.
translate “home” from finnish to english ;)
I’m severely deutan, even then red and green are a clear difference. Yellow is a bit harder to see, but still visible. Should not be an issue unless you are suffering from dichromatism.
oh shit it actually goes to the beginning of a line, instant upgrade to god tier
On SSH that button is a killer, even works in vim. For home I never found any use.
Fellow deutans, fuck you
Public companies obviously intentionally want to make everything as shitty as possible, just to extract money, but lets accept the hypothetical that subscriptions will actually be banned. Wouldn’t that be great?
You would basically be treated the same as Tier 1-3 ISP’s, pay for the cost of the routing to the company. That phone plan that costs ?? €/$ a month becomes “Pay as you use it”. Flat fee per gigabyte / message etc. These plans were at least here in Finland, and I think my phone bills were around 4-5 EUR a month and a cap that you cannot exceed that month, though smartphones and data plans weren’t a thing. Now everything is a subscription.
Now back to hardware vs software. You obviously pay for the software also when buying the hardware, but for whatever reason the user doesn’t own any kind of rights around it. This has obviously become much worse the past few years (TV’s have ads etc). I really don’t think that the issue is anything you listed, the issue is that greedy companies want to use the subscription model rather than play fair. Phones and modems are EOL at best in a year. I have a PFSense router that cost me less than a router from my ISP used and it’s EOL and security is something I don’t have to worry about.
Modems and routers have most of their features dedicated to home networking and are not usually made by the ISP. Them connecting to the internet is one of the smallest features they have. The other features are related to offline networking and tight security, you can actually just plug an ethernet cable to the wall and get connection from your ISP. Same as using a modem and putting it in “bridge mode”, which will completely bypass the features of the modem/router.
The issue here is that the companies don’t want to provide value, they just want to extract as much money as possible, which is wrong. Laws and regulations are desperately needed and even something as radical as banning subscription services for user devices would be a net positive. Renting Tier 1-3 operator infrastructure for your router/modem to work is completely different than “You have the device and the software, but we block you from using it, since you don’t pay”, which in my opinion is ransomware, not subscriptions.
For right to repair and owning these devices, I completely agree with you.
Just responding to the edit;
Modems work with other providers. You don’t own the infrastructure that connects the internet -> subscriptions.
Phones make it impossible to root or change batteries? I don’t own the device, byt at least it’s not e-waste yet.
The car thing you don’t own since the software makes the hardware e-waste.
“If you don’t work for me for free, I am going to insult you”
And before anyone even decides to reply to this, donate something to FOSS projects you like, rather than throw anger at me. Every little bit helps
You pay taxes that pay for those libraries so…
Proprietary and FOSS software both have a place, otherwise I would like to ask anyone against proprietary software for bank statements of FOSS donations or “Can you make a better one free”.
There isn’t a lot of great FOSS software just because there isn’t much funding… Regardless, I am on the same page, that I’d much rather use FOSS software.
Paying for a product is not a bad thing, but yeah obviously there are issues with something not being FOSS…
Really? I didn’t know that.
When I did the color shading test I failed crazy with the shades between green and red, including yellow. Obviously I failed the whole board, but that was the worst though.
Can you try to see the difference, because you should see it, with colorblindness the shades are just harder to see? If you actually cannot tell the difference you might have something else than protanomaly, like missing one cone completely rather than a shifted one.
Unless you meant protanopia, rather then protanomaly, the -nopia means a missing cone aka dichromacy, and -nomaly a shifted one I think?
