Rai ,

I hella feel that but re: phone on my end. I have tons of Windows machines and a couple Linux boxes and I don’t want to have to muck about with my phone with custom ROMs or… anything.

I don’t want to think about my phone. I’ve got a five year old iPhone that runs like the day I got it, and I’ve got all of my texts from 10 years ago and 20k+ photos. I’ve never reformatted it.

Apple gets a lot of hate on Lemmy but damn are their phones exactly what I want.

Threads is automatically hiding comments that mention Pixelfed (mastodon.social)

For anyone wondering if Threads and Facebook at large will be a fine neighbor in the space and compatible with other apps/services in the fediverse: they’re already automatically hiding comments that mention Pixelfed https://mastodon.social/@dansup/112126250737482807

Rai ,

I remember you from the Reddit post!

Rai ,

but I am home

Rai ,

Hahaha the post ABOUT Reddit. Posting the same image. Sorry, when I reread my comment, it comes off absolutely NOT how I intended!

Rai ,

This is an excellent article. Sarah knows what’s up.

Rai ,

So I’m quite new to this, and searching around hasn’t been to clear… if I’m looking to have my own E-mail domain, do I buy a domain in addition to subscribing to an E-mail… service… thing?

Rai ,

Thank you very much! I’ll look into snagging a domain and setting up like, Bluehost or Proton. I use Proton’s free tier now, but it looks like it’s about 3x as much for their good E-mail plan compared to Bluehost.

    It’s so sad. The Vita is an AMAZING console (when hacked)

    Rai ,

    SIM swapping to hijack OTPs is insane.

    Rai ,

    It took me a long time of thinking “what do these have to do with dbzer0” before realizing…

    Rai ,

    The other person explained this better than I can!

    Rai ,

    You’re entirely correct!

    Rai ,

    Wait… that makes no sense. You won’t see them now. There are no recommendations.

    It’s not a slot machine when items have no value because they can’t be traded

    Diablo II gang

    Rai ,

    That’s what I LOVED about it! I know it’s a super unpopular opinion, but it felt so much more rewarding to find something halfway decent. Like it did in Diablo II.

    Post-expansion it took a couple hours to fully gear a char, then every Primal Ancient Holy Mega Sickass Ancient Legendary was like “maybe I can go up another grift yawn” to me.

    Rai ,

    I totally get where you’re coming from, but I don’t feel that way personally! Finding a valuable item with a 1/10,000,000,000 drop rate is the real dopamine injector.

    Are there tools that exist to anonymize writing styles?

    I feel like with the rise of AI something that anonymizes writing styles should exist. For example it could look for differences in American versus British spelling like color versus colour or contextual things like soccer versus football and make edits accordingly. ChatGPT could be fed a prompt that says "Rewrite the following...

    Rai ,

    That’s absolutely hilarious. I love it.

    The HUD was awesome though. And The Tent (TM)

    Rai ,

    I also am not seeing any sports stuff on /c/all. My block list is only some nsfw stuff and Star Trek communities (not because it’s not an amazing show, but because I’ve only seen two episodes and don’t understand anything.)

    Rai ,

    Lemmy is wild. It’s like seeing old forums or IRC again.

    CPU: (Optional)

    Rai ,

    Technically it’s required, but I saw an article where someone was able to install a form of Linux into a machine that didn’t have one!

    Alas, my cursory searches are unable to pull it up right now. I feel like DDG is getting worse, it used to actually be pretty dope…

    Rai ,

    Me, spending two hours slowly exploring and reading everything before launch: “oh no”

    Rai ,

    I hear you’re taking reccos. May I suggest The Forgotten City? It’s not quite the same, but has a very similar “learn wtf is happening* as you go” mechanic. Also it’s one of my favorites.

    iOS has on-device image search without sending any of your photos somewhere, and it works quite well! I reckon any mid-to-high end google phone is powerful enough to do that too.

    I agree with that guy a LOT but something rubs me the wrong way with him

    I hate defending a huge bullshit Corp

    But you’re so fully correct. The person you’re responding to is delusional, and all their numbers are insane

    Rai ,

    Are you named after the artist? I love Ott.

    Rai ,

    Heck yes! “Mir” is my favorite album of theirs. Definitely recommend.

    If you don’t mind, what inspired your handle?

    Rai ,

    I like Raichu. Hahaha

    Rai ,

    It’s useless, folks here will never believe that other devices do the same thing. I think they’d rather just have their device shut down at 25%.

    On my original battery five years into having this iphone and it’s still screaming fast…

    Rai ,

    Here it’s just “someone enjoys iOS?! NOT ON MY WATCH”

    I’ve got three Linux machines, six? Maybe seven? Windows machines, and I love the shit outta my iPhone. I was a first-adopter of Android with the Dream and loved it. But when I realized iPhones can last for 5-6 years with full updates AND STILL BE FAST with no effort, reformatting, or thinking about them… that’s all I want from a phone.

    That and the privacy is better. It’s not perfect, but it’s lightyears better than ANYTHING google.

    But on Lemmy, that makes me a baby toddler noob that knows nothing about computers, because if I just got this google device and did all of these mods to it and installed all this software and maintained it and BRAINED HARDER I could have a similar experience to my five year old iPhone

    Rai ,

    Watch it just KILL

    I’d be so hopeless… more than I already am.

    Rai ,

    Pop! OS if you’ve got an NVidia card!

    Rai ,

    The fact that “creditors” is on a second line gave your joke even better timing. Love it.

The filing also states that the company believes “we are in the early...

    Rai ,

    You’re underestimating my annoyance at all of that garbage hahaha

    Rai ,

    There’s even a THIRD! I didn’t find that out until like a year ago!

    The second one was my favorite.
