  • Seems like apart from the new features the UI gets a fresh design as well. That's all personal taste however, I'm just glad they finally implement native tab groups 🤩

    Also, just remove all the featured articles bs, nobody cares about the articles (I know that's not gonna happen, but I had to vent for a second)

    Windows users, why aren't you using Ditto clipboard manager ?

  • You're asking people for their opinions only to correct them when they don't agree with your own opinion. This is not how discussion works ;-)

  • Yeah me neither. I don't think they understand the consequences of their own actions either. All that matters to them is "USA bad,

    <random pro Palestinian country>

    good". They'd probably also burn down the fields in a country they import their food from.

    I am a victim of a data breach, what do I do?

    Jump

  • First of all: Sorry to hear that, this sucks!

    Regarding your digital information: I'd suggest you to get a new email and gradually replace the old one in your accounts to avoid spam. Even though they claim your password wasn't stolen, I'd highly suggest you to change your passwords anyway, just in case. Also, as they say, be very careful about potential phishing attacks.

    As for your personal information such as your address: I'm afraid there's not much you can do. I'd argue, however, that it's not as valuable to potential hackers. One potential scam involving stolen addresses is sending purchases made with a stolen credit card to your address and asking you to forward it. Don't accept deliveries you didn't expect for this reason (depending on your local law it may lead to criminal charges against you, even though you're still technically the victim of a scam).

    So what is it?

  • Lmao, the part about the control center feeling like from a bootleg phone made my day. I felt like something was off the whole time but couldn't tell what was bothering me

  • Yeah and I can't get my head around why it won't be available here in the EU. This is so fucking stupid! Like how is the DMA or any other legislation supposed to prevent them from implementing iPhone mirroring? They literally offer every other continuity-related feature over here. This is just Apple being upset they're actually being regulated in the EU.

  • How do you say "[you have the] wrong number" in your language?

  • I'd return a non-zero value so they know it's their fault ^^

  • Several windows programs won't work with Wine. Would running a Windows VM be a better option?

    Jump

  • In my personal opinion: Yes. Wine is great and all, but in the end it's an emulation layer that - in the worst case - requires a lot of tweaking. I personally wouldn't want to spend that time so a VM sounds like a good option. But again, depending on the context (e.g. limited hardware resources or the amount of time available) you might be totally fine with Wine.

  • You're right. Also the other way around the new Kotlin frameworks needed can't easily be used in a Java codebase. I mean on bytecode level they're compatible but it's basically impossible in practice

  • That makes sense, thanks again! I think dynamic dispatch is not as much of a performance issue in my case, yet you're totally right not to waste resources that aren't actually needed. Keeping things on the stack if possible is also a good thing.

    I'll definitely need to read more about Rusts type system but your explanation was already very helpful! I think this might be why my initial approach felt unnatural - it works but is quite cumbersome and with generics there seems to be a more elegant approach.

  • Thanks for your input! I'll have a look at both build flags and macros for sure! For my specific problem enums will do just fine I guess, but having an overview about the possibilities helps a lot!

  • Thanks for the advice! I didn't know generic functions were preferred. But it makes perfect sense if you think about it.

  • Thanks for the explanation! I think just using an enum will do perfectly well in my case.
