I am not a developer and honestly curious about this. What’s Apple’s reason for ditching 32 bit programs? Isn’t backwards compatibility a net positive for both developers and consumers?

Just start from the beginning and get ready. You’re in for one hell of a ride. One of the best gaming experiences out there for sure.

I haven’t been really active on Beehaw for a while now. Where can I read more about Beehaw leaving Lemmy?

You shouldn’t have to rely on the words of Internet random though, go try one out.

That’s true and I have done that a few times. However they weren’t so informative since I was only able to try some recent Android phones at stores so they weren’t used. My close friends and family either have iPhones or midrange/budget Android phones. So I thought my next best bet is to ask others online.

Forgive me for asking if it was obvious in your comment but, when you said

in iOS the UI thread is split from the rest of the compute, and runs at elevated priority if i recall correctly. this used to not be the same case for android

did you mean that now Android does the same?

It would not. Because when you signed up to Reddit, you accepted their user agreement, which you can read here in full: https://www.redditinc.com/policies/user-agreement-september-25-2023

I don’t know man. Onion is not convenient, and in the modern day and age, especially online, convenience is king.

Edit: I’m dumb, misread you comment as “in the future”, not “in my future”.

This is such a half-ass job at rebranding. They only changed the logos on their front page. All the wording, logos and icons are still the previous ones on their About the Company page, Brand Toolkit, Help Center, Developer Platform, Business and Advertising etc etc.

if your “diversity” is when five white people in a room have opinions and those five white people happen to be from different countries and have distinct culture that’s essentially just white people jerking themselves off.

Can you elaborate on that? Like, I honestly think an American, a Russian and an Albanian having different opinions would be considered diverse. Aren’t those vastly different cultures despite the fact that they’re white?

Same thing goes for other skin colors as well. What you’re saying in my opinion is akin to calling Japanese and Chinese people “the same”. Or Persian and Arabs.

And also,

that’s essentially just white people jerking themselves off.

Please, is this the language we’re using here? The person above is clearly not trying to be a white supremacist, neither were they indecent. You could have used a better phrasing.

As an aside: it’s also a little short sighted to assume that bucketing people in a “white” group means they aren’t diverse in their own right. I’d imagine there is quite a diverse makeup of “white people” on here-- people from Western Europe, Eastern Europe, the US, Canada, Australia, and elsewhere who all have very different perspectives, cultures, and norms that they bring to the table.

Couldn’t agree more. I can understand why people from the US may think that a graph showing mostly white people would mean a lack of diversity, but this is not a US-only website. There are so much diversity amongst white people. As a Turkish person, my skin is white yes, but I have grown up in a vastly different culture and environment than a white American, or a white Russian, or a white French. Or while my skin is white I’ve yet to have a “white privilege” because again, I’m not from the US.

I know, in a poll like this you can’t just make every ethnicity and background an option -there are just too many of them. But again in an international community like this, saying that a white majority means a lack of diversity is just wrong in my opinion.
