It's not just nostalgia. I absolutely want a phone I can throw at a wall and put back together without it costing me money.

z00s ,

Sometimes you don't know how bad your ex really is until you're in a new relationship

z00s ,

Keanu would want you to use whatever distro you're comfortable with, he's a good guy

Each slide should have a max of 4 dot points, with each dot point roughly representing one spoken paragraph. Each dot point should have only the 3-4 most important words next to it. Speak the rest, but imagine that the dot point is what you want them to remember.


For example

Slide says:

  • Sales up 15%

What you say:

Due to the added bump from Christmas sales, we moved an additional 2500 units this quarter, which is about 15% of our year to date revenue. This is bigger than our Christmas sales last year, by about 7%. We think the increase is due to our new SKUs.

[Click, next dot point appears]


It's better to have lots of slides with less info per slide.

If you have a small number of slides but they are too dense, the audience will read it in a couple of seconds then get bored, and will stop paying attention while waiting for you to finish reading.

Also, if you can't fucking type properly (ie touch type) you're not competent to manage others.

z00s ,

Unbelievably, yes.

z00s ,

Do you honestly encrypt your porn? Why? (Assuming it's legal)

z00s ,

I think we both understand the intention behind my statement

z00s ,

It's not enough to not drive a car, you have to conform to the gatekeeping standards of this sub precisely

z00s ,

Personally this would be the exact reason that would stop me from signing up for a new messaging service.

Yes, your baby is special and amazing. To you.

z00s ,

The time is ripe for a new contender, so expect a bunch of The Next Big Thing (tm) apps that are almost identical, begging for your email address and contacts list so they can sign all your friends up too!

z00s ,

Because they're trying to monetize your third space.

Google Allows Creditors to Brick Your Phone (lemmy.world)

I installed NetGuard about a month ago and blocked all internet to apps, unless they're on a whitelist. No notifications from this particular system app (that can't be disabled) until recently when it started making internet connection requests to google servers. Does anyone know when this became a thing?...

z00s ,

Definitely report this to the accc

z00s ,

Did you buy your phone from eBay or amazon? Could be a refurbished overseas model

z00s ,

Hm, weird

z00s ,

I think buying a cat with your groceries was a great idea, what aisle was it in?

z00s ,

When people tell you who they are, believe them.

z00s ,

Windows 7 is the only good version since XP, not even joking.

z00s ,

Holy shit, nostalgia

z00s ,

The thing about exploits is that they can exist without there being a wider knowledge of them; that's the nature of the beast. So I play it safe.

Plus, for 5 cents' worth of masking tape you've solved the problem, so why bother even thinking about it.

z00s ,

Creates filenames such as
Showname.Season.01.Epiaode.01.(2021).The.Title.Of.The.Episode.[HEVC].[1080].BRRIP.AMZN.1337x.Yiffy.[BEST. QUALITY.AUDIO].mp4

z00s ,

That'll make you go blind

z00s ,

What we should really be addressing here is the underlying need. If people are so lonely that this seems like a good option, it may well be that they could benefit from counselling.

But instead, people make jokes about it because it's a problem that's primarily affecting young men.

z00s ,

People are still people. Doctors are just as susceptible to compromising their ethics as everyone else, the only difference is that they probably have a higher bribe threshold.

Why is graphene os only available on google pixels?

I want to mainly use it for privacy over its "security". I don't know what makes everyone fine with running it on fucking google pixels. Is there some kind of "low security" version or something for other phones? I'm so tired of certain organizations infiltrating privacy communities and making people believe in improving...

z00s ,

May I ask why you put a creative commons licence link in all your comments? Is it because of Reddit's recent activities?

"Most powerful empire the world has ever known"

Lol Americans

The Romans conquered the known world with pointy sticks and diplomacy.

The US hasn't been on the winning side since ww2 despite having nukes and spyplanes.

Even the British Empire spanned the globe, and all they had was cannons, rum, and syphilis.

z00s ,

Lol That's just a bunch of mental gymnastics to justify why the "mighty" US can't even win a war against an impoverished SE Asian nation with 50 year old Soviet weapons

z00s ,

No they just had the latrines too close to the food prep area, same effect

z00s ,

Find out the one weird trick to lose weight fast - generals hate it!

z00s ,

I just wouldn't call it an empire, that's all. I'm not a historian but to me, empires are made by occupying other countries.

The US is a powerful nation of course, but they don't have the same focus on conquest as the other countries throughout history have had.

z00s ,

OK, what's your basis for objective measurement?

z00s ,

That would be interesting, to compare the land mass of the US with the max size of the Roman empire. My guess is that the romans would win by a hair.

But the Brits would definitely win because they have Australia, which is almost as big as the continental US just in itself, let alone all the other countries they conquered.

z00s ,

Along with Russia, China, India, France and the UK. And North Korea and Pakistan.

And no, the US doesn't have the greatest number. That's Russia.

So, no, the US is not "objectively the most powerful".

Lol you're neck deep in propaganda

z00s ,

Me too. Feelin' mighty fine about that decision now. Long Live Lemmy

Starting from zero

I'm interested in exploring the world of self hosting, but most of the information that I find is incredibly detailed and specific, such as what type of CPU performs better, etc. What I'm really looking for is an extremely basic square 1 guide. I know basically nothing about networking, I don't really know any coding, but it...

z00s ,

I'm not in IT and had no prior experience.

I bought a used Dell Optiplex for cheap and used installation guides provided on the websites of the services I wanted to install (pihole, jellyfin, home assistant etc)

This is by far the easiest method to get started. Learn by doing.

Make all your services LAN only to start; don't open anything up to be accessed outside your home network until you know a bit more, as making it secure requires a bit more time and knowledge.

Hot tip: use chat gpt to help you. If something doesnt work, feed the error messages to it and it will explain why and give you the commands to fix them.
