Here’s the study.

“Stop using meta people!” sounds like a protest chant for the second-class citizens of a B-grade cyberpunk dystopia.

The most desirable desire path.

How did you come to the conclusion that section D does not apply?

I didn’t. I came to the conclusion that the criteria in Section D have already been cleared, because Section D discusses the cases in which the warranty will not apply; both parties clearly agree the warranty applies because Samsung offered Louis compensation. I don’t understand what warranty you were reading or why this is so difficult for you.

Specifically what part of Section D concerns you?

I can’t imagine how he’s going to get them to pay him more than what he paid.

I have no idea why you’re citing “Section D”. Section D is about the limitations of the warranty/liability, and that clearly doesn’t apply (they offered Louis compensation for the warranty; both parties agree this is within the bounds of the warranty). Sections B, C, and D have been met because both parties agree they have been.

The warranty (Section A) reads:

Samsung will, at its option, either: (1) repair or replace the Product with new or refurbished Product of equal or greater capacity and functionality; or (2) refund the then current market value of the Product at the time the warranty claim is made to Samsung if Samsung is unable to repair or replace the Product.

Samsung therefore has two options: 1) repair/replace the unit or 2) pay Louis the current market value. That’s not even slightly ambiguous. Even if you agree that “at its option” means that “unable to repair or replace the Product” is 100% up to Samsung regardless of its actual ability (which it appears to be), that still means they owe him current market value, which is in the ~$900 range – not what he paid for it. You’re way off-base with your assessment.

(edit: “does not apply” was, I hope, clearly intended to mean “in reference to this conversation because the criteria have obviously been met”.)

Lindsey Graham has been rumored for years to be closeted gay; the “ladybugs” thing specifically comes from a satire story (full text here) where Graham calls the moles on his taint his “little ladybugs”.

• MTG resigned despite no obviously threatening primary challenge.
• Boebert is running uncontested in the primary.
• The article notes of Mace: “Mace’s incessant political attention-seeking and often-bizarre behavior might well have alienated primary voters as much as the Epstein saga.”
• And notes of Massie: “Both Greene and Massie were bucking Trump on plenty of other things, too.”

Like it’s clear at least Massie is gone because he went against Trump and probably Mace too, but using a sample size of four to say “Yup, it’s the Epstein files” is obviously unsound.

The article is correct on the grounds that it is too simple to reduce it to that singular cause.

In the article you didn’t read:

It’s too simple to reduce Mace, Greene and Massie’s loss of power to the Epstein files.

Never change, Lemmy.

(Edit: Not, of course, that you’d have to read an article to know that a sample size of four isn’t sufficient to connect the two.)

I’d say the play here is to buy a new one and return the old one but do a label swap.

Louis addressed this in his video. He pointed out that he’s suing in large part because Samsung is penalizing the honest way of doing things. He wants to promote the honest way by setting an example, and good for him.

«Works for me» is seldom a good advice.

That wasn’t the advice; the advice was “try offline tiles and see if that helps.” In their case, it didn’t, but it’s just covering arguably the most likely potential cause. The fact it wasn’t their problem doesn’t mean it wasn’t worth asking.

I’d also add that the borrow checker, to me, has a grossly overexaggerated difficulty/annoyance. It follows a simple set of a few easily learned rules, and in my experience, if you break one, it’ll tell you which and where. I feel like the type of C/C++ programmers complaining about it are mostly the ones that have mountains of hidden memory etc. bugs in their C/C++ code that Rust actually makes them clean up.

Edit: Another class I find are those who kind of just feel out the borrow checker blindly without sitting down for 20 minutes to learn how ownership works.

On the contrary, many speakers are anti-Mormon, including Trump ally and Southern Baptist megachurch pastor Robert Jeffress, who has repeatedly called the Latter Day Saints a “cult.”

Not wrong, but utterly rich coming from the cult of inbreeding.

“Takes seconds” seems like a strange experience. I remember OsmAnd years ago performed like that for me – clearly, painfully loading in the individual tiles. But nowdays, it smoothly transitions between LoD and has no problem smoothly scrubbing over e.g. a major city.

I’m using offline vector maps, for context.

Edit: Trying online tiles again, I’m assuming your problem can be resolved by switching to offline. You can have the offline data update automatically such that you don’t have to worry about it. CoMaps and Organic only use offline maps, which is why they’re similarly snappy to offline OsmAnd.

This is under Configure Map > Map Source, and you only need to download for the region (usually e.g. a province) that you’re using.

Something I’d suggest if OsmAnd feels too cluttered for you is to change the settings; OsmAnd lets you change a lot, but one of the ones I do is to change “Map Style” to Osm-Carto.

Carto, for context, is the vector map that you’d find by going to the OSM website. Much cleaner color scheme, imo.

Yeah, OsmAnd is really good; it’s what I use as my daily driver. CoMaps/Organic to me feel too limited, but some people may like that.

(I use Vespucci for editing on Android.)

Would switch Organic Maps to its fork CoMaps. (See: this open letter)

And I would never recommend Brave as the first choice; it’s run by a shady corporation and reinforces Chromium’s hegemony.

I think it’d also be reasonable to add ProtonMail to email and Mullvad to VPN since you can have multiple.

Okay, he’s a democrat that acts like a republican.

Pele, are we talking about the same person? Platner is a populist progressive.

Formally on reddit?

Yes. I even write semi-formally on Mastodon for PCSX2 (or wrote; on hiatus) within its constraints; a PR team attempting to apologize for something will normally resort to formality regardless of the forum.

You’re giving off major “A 10-page essay before AI-assisted writing? As if!” vibes. I’m sorry basic PR etiquette is inconceivable to you personally. The Wendy’s Twitter account is that way if you want to soothe your preconceptions about PR on social media.

I write formally all the time; smells like a PR team writing formally.

Ah, yes, reaffirming that someone raising an issue is correct to have done so is the telltale sign of an LLM. Couldn’t just be basic professional writing etiquette that LLMs were trained forwards and backwards on; it has to have been written by an LLM.

You don’t actually write formally very much, do you?
