The bridge Is "open" but somehow it works only for premium users.

It just opens the web app

It's worse than you thought.

The webmail provider released a dedicated browser that can only open the webmail and called it a "desktop" app.

Additionally, they don't support IMAP. There's an app to run on your computer that becomes a bridge. The proprietary protocol is translated to IMAP. You can't use your favorite client if your operating system can't run that bridge and you're not a premium user because for "reasons" only premium users can run that local bridge

Wait, there's a web viewer for iwork files? Does it allow to save as a PDF? But I guess it wouldn't handle missing fonts

My iMac is gathering dust. It can't run Debian due to proprietary video shit, so all I get is a black screen at boot. Tried fedora and my USB mouse doesn't work at boot, I have to unplug and replug every single time. Who knows what kind of proprietary assholery they did to the USB stack

I should just sell it but I'm keeping it for "what if one day I need to open some iWork files?" - although i already proven a month ago that it would not correctly open iWork documents created with the latest version

Wait, is this a tweet with a YouTube comment?

I noticed now that tether (a crypto coin that claims to be 100% backed by USD) printed 10% of what the fed printed in 2023.

And a similar amount for usdc

Surely all those freshly printed crypto coins are backed by real dollars

If you refer to pizza boy, the dev told me by email that there's an option to save somewhere else (I sent an email complaining that hiding saves in /android/data/com.app.blabla is stupid (can only be accessed via USB and it gets wiped when you uninstall the app), at least use /android/media/com.app.blabla

Isn't the opposite?

Saving in downloads on Android doesn't need additional storage permissions, so apps will save in the big "trash can" downloads folder

Instead, who the fuck knows where iOS saved that file, where every app is sandboxed and isolated

I fried the battery charging chip for my HTC dream when I rooted and used it as a router for the family in holiday. I felt it was hot to the touch but I thought "it's gonna be ok, surely it has temperature sensors and it will throttle". High draw for a long time when charging = the chip exploded and it wouldn't charge anymore. Luckily the battery was removable and I already got an external charger for it from dealextreme. But HTC still repaired it for free under warranty even if it was my fault and I gave to them back rooted.

Same for LG when my rooted Nexus 5X boot looped, although that was an endemic problem caused by LG shitty manufacturing (they changed the stance a few months after that, never bought LG anymore)

Samsung should repair it, I thought they were the only ones root friendly left on the market...

They're talented in nostalgic acquisitions.

They got WinZip, ulead video studio, intervideo winDVD, Roxio toast, Pinnacle video editor, Bryce, Ventura Publisher.

Or worse, ban you from their GitHub repository without any reply or explanation
