Samsung’s statement said that it wasn’t their fault and that external factors were solely responsible for this happening. What external factors would cause this?

Same here. 😬

I really feel for them.

Damn. Thank you for sharing this here, Alyaza!

Microsoft fired its entire QA team 10 years ago, and shifted the responsibility for testing onto developers. They also got rid of their dedicated hardware lab where software would be tested on many different hardware combinations.

That…makes SO much sense and explains a lot! Thanks for mentioning it.

You’re my favorite customer!

Mine, too!

Of course! :)

I’m not even 16, why do I feel ancient

I don’t know if this will help you, but I think that’s pretty normal. I felt similarly at your age in some ways and in other ways I felt like a baby, depending on how I looked at things. I still feel that way and I’m twice your age! It’s weird. Growing up is weird. I feel for you. 💖

Holy cow, that’s neat as hell! Thanks for sharing!

Poor guy. My heart breaks for him. I hope people are understanding, compassionate, empathetic, and aren’t hateful and harrassing towards him about it, but, realistically… they likely will be hateful and harrass the poor dude, because some people are just sucky, entitled, and rude little jackasses (and I hate it so much and I don’t understand why people behave this way!) I hope he can find a way to handle it all okay. :(

How cute and fun! I love it. Thank you for the screenshot and explanation!

I had no idea that there were Pokémon fan games! The possibility never even crossed my mind, for whatever reason. How cool! Good luck with Keishou!

That’s a really great article, thank you for the link! That was informative and educational and I am a fan.

Ooh, yay!! I’m excited for you! I hope you love them! I’d be interested in hearing how they are and how they compare to your memory of the original Altoids kind, if you happen think of it once you’ve tried them.

Also, totally agreed about it being a cool project by that candy store! They’ve got lots of cool projects where they remake old candies. Sometimes they track down the old/original equipment and everything. It is super neat!!

I haven’t tried them, but I’ve heard a lot of people say that these are supposed to be very similar to those Altoids Sours: https://www.pd.net/products/tangerine-sours-secret-pre-order

They have lots of awesome candy and remakes on there. I hate being poor, lol!

From someone in the US, smack dab in the middle of very dense Republican land (Oklahoma,) I want you to know that you’ve nailed it! You’re spot on. I wish you were exaggerating, lol.

Some Lemmy instances have downvotes, some don’t. It varies by instance. I think most instances have/allow downvotes. Beehaw & Blahaj are two bigger ones that don’t that I can think of off of the top of my head.

Also agreed with your last bit. I’m nervous about it, too. I wish people would just be decent and… not suck, lol.

That is exactly my story, too! I’m glad we both found our way here like that. Fun stuff :)

The post you originally replied to and are currently commenting on is a Lemmy post which was federated to Mastodon, where I’m guessing you’re seeing a copy of it. We’re seeing this on Lemmy, where it was originally posted, where there are definitely downvotes.

I’m wondering the same about that and about whatever the heck is called “Brotato!” Do you play as a potato? I’m intrigued
