Semi-retired Internet geek living with my wife and dog in Nairn, Scotland. When I’m well enough I’m trying to make the world a better place through the application of technology but I’m also the SNP councillor for Nairn & Cawdor which is taking up most of most of my time.
This is what puts me off.
Runar Bjørhovde, an analyst at Canalys, said return rates of foldables are 5-10 percent, far higher than traditional smartphones and a deterrent to repeat purchases.
A phone costing me four digits with that high a return rate. Nope.
That would have been Slackware, which in those days came on a stack of 3.5" floppy disks. So early 90’s (and hence I was in my mid-30s) but I was still mainly using Windows 3.1 and Trumpet Winsock to connect to the Internet.
I think the first time I really took it seriously was in the mid 90’s with Debian, a copy of which was posted to me, on CD-ROM I think, by Ian Murdock himself (back in the days when he was still with Debra 😏).
BTW there’s now an OSM community !openstreetmap@lemmy.ml
We update it a lot. We also have a product (for walkers in the British Isles) called WayMaps (used by a variety of walking web sites in the UK and also our own demo site https://waymaps.the-hug.net/) which uses the geodata from OSM and other Open Data to produce our own map tiles. We love OSM.
I was paying US$3.95 a month if I remember rightly but I think it’s now US$5.95.
That’s what Reddit Premium was for, which I had. No adverts in return for a monthly fee.
They offered it to me. I’ve not been on reddit since the API issue kicked off.
