For me it was the lack of portability (it's a chunky beast), I just wasn't taking it anywhere because it takes up so much space in your bag. By comparison the switch with it's disconnecting controllers fits in my electronics bag along with a bunch of plugs, chargers and cables and hardly takes up any room, and weighs a decent amount less. Looking forward to a slimmer and narrower V2 though, if it ever materialises.


My feeling is that deck v2 will only happen around the time of next generation consoles (PS6, etc) so they can piggy-back off the AMD APU made for it again. Getting a chip as a slight variation on a mass-market product is going to be a lot easier


I grew up in council housing built during this period. It's not exactly premium but it was built fairly well and they sold well when many of them eventually made it onto the private market many decades later. Good sized gardens and I remember the council doing necessary repairs and upgrades throughout my time there.

I'm not exactly familiar with buildings from ex-soviet eastern Europe but I'd be surprised if it was a much higher build quality.


This doesn't describe council houses I've seen in London and surroundings (e.g. Milton Keynes/Bletchley).

What I remember: - small rooms - mould - no insulation - in larger buildings gardens, if any, would be only for ground floor flats - in smaller buildings flats would be split over 3 levels, with each level being rather small - often wired entrance to the flats from outdoor gallery/balcony (in larger buildings) - low ceilings (for my liking)


My experience is from the midlands, specifically in council estates that were predominantly terraced and semi-detached houses (small blocks of 4 or so houses at a time). No flats so that might be a big distinguishing factor (as well as not being in London...). Definitely had problems but rarely because of the build quality itself, some issues with neglect in some areas.


It turns out the question "how long will it take for a unknown mix of fibers in an unknown configuration to release most of the water I knowingly put in" is difficult to answer. We'll have AGI before accurate washing machine estimates it seems.


For me, Bir Baskadir (Ethos) is easily in the top 3. It only got one season but it's very self contained, highly recommend.


I don't use ST as my daily driver any more but I still use it for fast editing of large files occasionally. I am daily driving Merge though. Any other Sublime apps in the works?

Have you also considered offering ST and SM as a bundle price with a discount? I'd be interested just because of my lopsided use of the two apps.


We already offer ST and SM in a discounted bundle :)


Duh, I completely missed it somehow! Skim reading is a bad habit kids.


Then it's simply restricted.


How about "stinky", if the goal is to discourage corpse tourism while being technically accurate and honest.


Why is everyone arguing about the semantics here? Why don't we just start a zoom call with the author and complain together?


Apple isn’t a luxury brand in the normal sense, it’s odd that people think this because they’re more expensive. They’re not the technical equivalent of Prada or Rolex etc. Apple’s ecosystem cohesion and still unmatched UX (still flawed) is a real value-add that normal luxury brands don’t have.


So maybe not luxury, but premium. Like MB or Audi in cars. Pricing still plays out differently.


I’m making an assumption, but I would guess most of the images being shared are about a tenth of that.


Images and videos, though to be fair, the limit for both is 15 MB.

And I think it's a safe assumption there's some ffmpeg / imagemagick running somewhere that reduces the size even further before serving it to others.


Each instance can set it's own size limits.


There's a UX difference: when you look at your inbox from fresh you have to remember which ones you purposefully ignored because they were left unread in the inbox (this might be trivial for you if you're used to it).

I practice inbox zero also, the value for me is knowing that if it's in my inbox it's because it requires actioning, if it's not it's ignored (deleted or archived).

I also just generally like deleting things as much as possible, I don't like the cruft. If I have to search through old emails I don't have to filter by stars or anything like that, I like knowing that if it exists it's because it's important.


Is it needed to link to previous submissions without any comments?


Not OP but I've noticed that it's a common thing to do here, especially if there was discussion before.


posted 3 days ago and still has zero comments. you'd expect some relevant discussion there if someone takes the trouble to link to an older dup.
