Yeah, this is definitely not a good comparison, I agree. One argument maybe is that because planes are more regulated it works out at lower accident rate and that’s what we should bring to the car world. But there are also much much more cars than planes around.

ook@discuss.tchncs.deto keyboards@lemmy.sdf.org•KeyGo is a slim keyboard with an integrated 12.8 inch touchscreen display (crowdfunding)1·20 hours agoWhile the suggested retail price seems rather high, the crowdfunding price doesn’t seem bad at all for a multifunction device that can be used as a keyboard, display, and touch input. I’m kind of hoping that the “retail” price is a fiction to encourage folks to back the Kickstarter campaign.
Well, here’s to hoping. The real reason is probably that the product will never see the light of day and if you back this kickstarter, for a product that is already overprized for future market appearance and therefore won’t sell at all, you’ll just lose your backing money and will likely not receive this product.

ook@discuss.tchncs.deto Linux@lemmy.ml•Syncthing 2.0 Launches With Major Database Overhaul3·2 days agoCan I ask about the change of not keeping record of deleted files after 6 months by default. Does that mean if I sync two directories constantly so that if syncthing sees one of them has a file deleted, it will delete the file on the other too, if I copy back that same file into the synced folder, after 6 months pass Syncthing would sync that file again? Or what else does this mean?
Currently I am just using this to have an easy transfer between two computers, I keep moving out files that have been transferred from both folders, so I would think this has no effect on how I use it?
911: this is a phone, sir. I cannot see your gestures.
I just had it all nicely setup and was planning to expand it, being happy and content that I don’t need to mess with it anymore. And now they decide to make a 2.0, darn it!
Mostly joking, glad to see its being developed, just hope I don’t forget to wait updating it on my server until the android app catches up.
Oh my. Choking even. Oh my oh my.
I… don’t know enough about broccoli to figure out if this is a meme or not.
OK, boomer.
Please, priests have been dipping people underwater for centuries!

Diminishing returns is something else, like you would go a third faster in speed but arrive only a quarter faster.

There was a recent drama around it which had to do with generative AI they wanted to use in the app.
