I wonder how long they’ll stay competitive with taxis. From what I understand, they were subsidized pretty hard by VCs during the low interest rate era.

Anecdotally, Uber would’ve charged me $75 for a ride from JFK airport to uptown Manhattan, meanwhile every taxi had a $70 fixed fare. They’re already neck-and-neck. What’s going to give?

I like the new icon but I’d love the option to change back to the old one once in a while. I used to change icons on Apollo all the time.

Unfortunately, this doesn’t work, but Pixelfed just added a “log in with Mastodon” option yesterday. It’s not impossible that it’ll come to lemmy one day.

You’re brave, if I had a stack of chicken and waffles that high I wouldn’t have my laptop in falling distance.

I’ve worked with (read: done a tiny amount of work with) accessibility compliance and you basically only need a “we’re working towards accessibility” disclaimer somewhere to be legally covered. Not sure how that works with blatant regressions like this, though; I imagine a case could be made that their statement is a lie.

Synecdoche New York. Every one of my friends who’ve seen it think it’s brilliant. I tried watching it and felt like I was losing my mind. I know that’s the point, but that doesn’t make it a good movie!

Agreed, what’s in these? Raw text? Image metadata?

Every now and then I go watch the Senator Armstrong fight on YouTube, it’s insane and hilarious

Patient Gamers was one of my favorites too - I might repost some of my reviews here to add some content
