Affiliate links and coupons should be banned.. Artificially inflating prices so that some users can add a code to get a discount. Huge in antics for years, but growing rapidly in Europe for the last 10.

I downloaded the TG4 player tonight for the first time since before lockdown. TG4 produce and air some of the best TV in ireland (most of imo). The player was always decent, always better than the RTE player, but fck me. ... The latest version - last updated Nov 4th 2024 according to the Android Play Store, is close to perfect. Installed it on a Formuler box first, then on an old android TX3, and finally on a Huawei M5 Lite. Flawless. Press play and it plays, pause and it pauses. Zero buffering. Live TV perfect. Subtitles? Yep. That's standard for every TV Player. Then I tried RTE Player. What a clunky honking heap of shite.

That's all.

Anybody know the cost that both have taken to develop? I have heard RTE player was given to an employee's son or nephew, which probably explains why it's shit, but I have never heard what they cost each company. Does anybody know were to look?

"grown men"

 

This should be huge. But time will tell.

So does this mean that lemmy.ml is taking over as the biggest instance?

Me. Very much.

Can't stand that cunt. So much that it's almost unhealthy. Would love to see this happening.

 

I hope this is legit, and that this lad follows JP fights, adds $100m to all 'challenges' after they're announced, winner takes all. Will Jake Paul still be willing to fight them?

Hi, and thanks for your reply.

EDIT - I have gone to account management and the only option is sign in, which gives the same error. I have created new user in user management But I can't do anything with it, I can't make it the main profile.

Yep, I might have worded it badly. We created a new user, new profile, using a newly created email address for him, but we are getting the same error.

From small seeds... I had noticed a huge improvement regarding lemmy posts and threads, before the US election, and then it all kind of went backwards.

But if you have any questions about anything - niche or otherwise, you should post them on lemmy, helping it to grow faster. Even if the answers can already be found in other community forums.
You should get specific replies to your question anyway, but also anyone coming behind you won't have to go to reddit or any other place for the answer. It requires everyone to help, but questions are the fastest way to grow in most cases. Not including the likes of subs that can post original content, A TON of reposts on them too, but some OC. But mainly asking for help with anything should get people with knowledge on the subject replying. With the idea that eventually many answers can be found here without having to go elsewhere. Start 'spamming' your genuine questions now..

Nephews father passed away, and he just recently got the PS4 back from his fathers partner. He can't sign into the PS4 PSN as we don't know his fathers gmail password (Can get it eventually off google after a fair amount of hoop jumping.)

He doesn't want to delete his fathers account and all of their data that they played together, so we created a new account for him on my phone. We signed up and signed in, and it worked for a second, but then no longer. It asks to sign in and throws up his fathers email address. When we change it to the new one we created and password and we try to login, we get the above error every time. We have also tried with passkey. Is there any easier way to do this?

TIA.

I did read into it. It doesn't mean democracy is doomed to failure, but it proves that it doesn't work. Mathematically or otherwise.

Google image results are shit on purpose. They used to be better (long before AI). I am guessing that they use the pretence that it's all about porn. But they do it for tools, equipment, stereos etc.. to give bad results. Are they getting paid (yet) to return bad results?

Manipulating search results for profit is something that they already do, and targeted adverts. So it's not that much of a stretch. I was just wondering if it is acknowledged already.

 

I would like to create a site that that allows people to select a category and/or a sub-category and invite people to join and partake in something for a limited time period determined by the OP, but also allowing other users to suggest alternative options as a votable option.

I have no idea where to start with any of this.

Is it just forum software that I should be looking at, and could anyone recommend one if it is. Also how much should I be looking at to begin with?

EDIT - Thanks everyone, all good options to look at. I am going to try a Lemmy Sub, as that seems to be the most favoured answer by users. Hopefully I will get to grips with it. 🙂
