It’s common in states that have a lower population center, geographically. I’m in Minnesota, and our Twin Cities are in the southern third of the state.

“Going up north (to the cabin)” is our spin on “upstate”, because (for most people) there isn’t much of a reason to go much more north than we already do.

Similar experience for my xm4s. Great sound, they’re comfy, but the app is dogshit and the buttons/ touch controls physically hurt me to use.

This is the exact reasoning that Israel is using to justify their genocide in Gaza.

It’s like people get 90% of the way towards “genocide is bad” and then add the asterisk “unless we do it.”

“AI isn’t good enough to replace workers yet, but it’s good enough to convince CEOs it can.”

I think they were commenting on how people seem to be zealots for Firefox on Lemmy, despite having some (reasonable) flaws. Despite this news, I’d bet a lot of them will continue. Not a pro-Chrome stance by any means.

(I had to block the Firefox and Linux subs day 1 because of how much anti-Chrome/ anti-Windows I saw).

Just had to open a link in Teams and it ignored that Chrome was my default to launch Edge, then tried to set itself as the default for anything clicked in Teams.

I can easily see Microsoft doing something comparably shitty for people opening links in Word or PowerPoint. If not for Apple’s even more egregious ecosystem practices (among other things) I’d be very tempted to switch.
