Not only software license, I believe any products “lifetime” comes with a lot of caveates.

Case in point, I purchased a fountain pen a decade ago, and started to leak (a crack around the threads) a few year back. The company is known for its lifetime warranty and good customer service, as per the warranty, it said if the product is defective (which I believe leaking pen body is), I am entilted for a replacement part or a new model of the same price if the pen is no longer in production. I reached out to customer service and was told, they can’t supply a replacement part because the pen is no longer in production and I’m not entitled to a new model because they doesn’t deem a leaking body a defect.

    What? My A1502’s battery is about dead and I in mind to replace it soon. This is ridiculous.

    Xiaomi starting 14th with HyperOS will have stricter regulations on unlocking the bootloader. But that only applies to those devices that sold in China, if you purchased your device outside of China, it wouldn’t make any difference (unless you purchase a Chinese model).

    Aside from having a L5 community account (much more harder to achieve than previously), you also has to pass an exam which you have to schedule and according to those that took the exam, said it’s equivalent to an college entrance exam.

    There are people who is selling their unlocking previllages on second hand markets for roughly 90USD.

    The WSJ reports that China is on an extensive push to drive out Western tech companies from the country and replace them with domestic alternatives. China reportedly started its domestic expansion in 2022 with a highly secretive “Document 79,” an initiative focused on deleting Western tech companies from the country. Since...

    Thats basically daily life in Xi’an China.

    Xi’an (Western Peace), the thousand year old city located in Western China is also known as Chang’an (Long/Eternal/Enduring, (you get the idea) Peace) was the captial of Han Dynasty (206 BC–9AD), Tang Dynasty (618AD–907AD) and many other smaller Kingdoms throughout Chinese history. In modern times, it is quite well known that any residential, commerical, or even transit development has a high chance of digging up some ancient grave, most notebly royal tombs.

    It is said that in Xi’an, when you travel through the underground subway, it is very likely that ancient ghosts would stare at you for disturbing their long sleep.

    “Those people were not interred in a regular cemetery although we have designated plague cemeteries in Nuremberg,” said Langbein.

    “This means a large number of dead people who needed to be buried in a short time frame without regard to Christian burial practices,” she said.

    Because of this, an epidemic such as the plague is “more than likely” the explanation for the mass graves, according to Langbein.

    Shouldn’t they wear masks and stuff?

    TwinTusks ,
    @TwinTusks@bitforged.space avatar

    Definitely, the number of people have died thoughout history drastically outweight the number of living people today. If ghosts exists, Earth would be very crowded indeed (not to mention all those animals and … dinosaurs).

    I am always amazed at its official forum. The dev has tight control over it, each post need to be approved by him in order to post, there are many threads that are years old on the front page mainly due to the fact that the dev didn’t approve new response.

    Case in point, there was a update a while ago that moves the default save folder to another location, many user had posted threads asking solution, without any resolution, I have also faced this issue few months back and finally tracked it down, decided to post it and can’t.

    I know nothing of coding.

    From pictures, I get that you submit a code, which didn’t work. You were told that you have a week to fix the code, and in the meantime they closed your patch and a fix was used.

    Issue here is that you claim the fix was still your code … and they said its their own code.

    How to prove that?

    TwinTusks ,
    @TwinTusks@bitforged.space avatar

    Yes, you mentioned that multiple times in your communication with Leah.

    However, we have no way of confirming the patch they use is the same one that you submit (have you submited? from communication it sounds like you have a week to provide a patch and then they just patch it themselves).

    窗户己限位

    has no meaning, “限位” is not to be used like this.

    TwinTusks , (edited )
    @TwinTusks@bitforged.space avatar

    Actually, I am wrong, there is actually a thing call 窗户限位, they put a device (called 限位器, “limiting device”) on the window to limit how far it opens. So that is what they meant by “the window is limited”.

    You are completly correct. I have seem those type of windows but I never actually heard the term 限位 applied to them before.
