@ciourte @netopwibby Needless to say I've only heard of some Spanish low-cost #MVNO offering one device only in a #prepaid #bundle when #FirefoxOS was unveiled at the #MWC in #Barcelona based off coverage in @ct_Magazin at the time.

• Cuz I remember #WebDevs like @fuchsiii really loving it because it was the then hot & fresh #HTML5 + #JS6 + #CSS3 combo to make it super-easy to do #Apps. All one needs to build an app was #Firefox as Browser and the ability to basically zip' it.

Alas @Mozilla deciding on purpose to literally splinter the market by letting #MNO|s and MVNOs run their #AppStore|s instead of a #centralized model, making the situation worse than in the "P.R." #China where there are several vendor-independent #AppStores for #Android.

• "Conspiracy Theorists" even suggested that this was deliberate self-sabotage to benefit #Google and #Android, tho needless to say Firefox OS aimed at devices & specs that were too low for Android.

Still, I'm #StillMad at #Mozilla for faceplanting Firefox OS cuz it had the easiest way to get started and a good architecture being every #App is just a #WebApp and all the system calls were standard #HTML5 permissions and nothing fancy.

• Basically #PSvita - Syndrome, but worse as in #OpenMoko #Freenunner:

@BigJackBrass @spaceflight
Always assumed that bit was about the very annoying UI fad that hit in about 1987 where everything went from this 🩶 to that 🚫🖤

Fucking impossible to see those black controls in the dark. And impossible to buy stereos in anything but black after that trend hit

I am suddenly very irrationally upset to discover where people got the idea that Vaporeon could melt into water. Short answer: It comes from the pokédex of every game I haven't played and just the games I haven't played!

@eri But sadly #Fairphone nowadays does the same, removing the #HeadphoneJack and #DualSIM / 2nd #SIM slot for the #Fairphone4 & #Fairphone5 for no good reason whatsoever!

And yes, I am #StillMad and angry about it!

@luis_in_brief @danilo @jacob Give Well is exactly who I am talking about actually. I know this is ancient history but they engaged in a broad astroturfing campaign on MetaFilter like 15 years ago and I am a little #StillMad

@finn this is what #Lenovo dieswhen they don't push more #Enshittificatiob into the #ThinkPad product lime.

*points at @fuchsiii who's #StillMad about the #ThinkPad25*

@edsu @fskornia Yes! It used to be a different 511 page for VT and one for NH and I am #StillMad that they combined it. Plus there's no way to tweak the sidebar and zoom level so you can't, say, send out a link to someone that is just zoomed in on their county with road closures but not weather (or with both). But yeah it's pretty good.

Today my hunt begins for loose leaf teas because fuck plastic in tea bags, you soulless greedy corporations #howdareyou #stillmad #plastic #teabags

@mmcd The only thing questionable about this is WHY DIDN'T THEY MAP THE CONTROL BUTTONS TO JOYSTICK LAYOUT ON A STARFIGHTER GAME?!?! #StillMad

"The [NLRB] ruled Tuesday that employers can no longer demand laid-off employees avoid publicly disparaging the company as part of their severance agreements, nor can they stop affected employees from disclosing the terms of their exit packages."

This could have revealed the true depth of F+W's financial problems in 2018 that ended in bankruptcy the following year, warning the staff and many freelancers who eventually got screwed over. 😡

Broke the screen on the OnePlus 7 Pro. Just cosmetic, everything still works. Will look at repairing it later. In the meantime, I bought a Google Pixel 5a and flashed Lineage to it and I've got to say.. I've missed the headphone jack. #stillmad #longlivetheheadphonejack #lineageos
