Use the client to sync all your files to disk instead of the website.
- Comment on Someone Put Facial Recognition Tech onto Meta's Smart Glasses to Instantly Dox Strangers 1 month ago:
Soon smartglasses will look like regular glasses though. Miniaturisation isn’t about to stop.
- Comment on What happened to the turn based RPG and RTS genres? 1 month ago:
Turn based RPGs ain’t doing that bad. I mean, BG3 was the hype in the last year or so…
- Comment on Multiplayer shooters should get "pure" healers that can't shoot 1 month ago:
Battlefield does most of this, except medics csn defend themselves because people already rarely play support. As seen by the endless rage and whining, the ad-hoc emergent teamplay doesn’t work as often as it does.

Nice to see we’ve progressed from putting blockchain in everything to AI.
- Comment on Which anime do you enjoy with a mostly adult cast of characters? 2 months ago:
Patlabor 2 is one of my all-time favorites, but it’s not very well-known. In a way it feels too mature and slow to be a wide hit, I guess.
- Comment on Andrew Greenberg, co-creator of the classic RPG Wizardry, has passed away 2 months ago:
Wizardry 8 will always be a part of my life.
- Comment on Custom ROMs have had just about enough of being Android's second-class citizens 2 months ago:
Ehhh I’m not sure how I got skimmed. Better safe than sorry now, a deleted card is pretty foolproof
- Comment on Custom ROMs have had just about enough of being Android's second-class citizens 2 months ago:
I can create a virtual card before every trip, use it via my phone and then cancel it after the trip, never worrying if my card got skimmed anywhere for one.
- Comment on Decentralised YouTube alternative Odysee no longer serving ads 3 months ago:
Most such attempts fail when not enough people subscribe to paying tiers. Good luck to them nevertheless, I hope they succeed.

Honey wake up, it’s the weekly miracle battery tech!

Patrolling the Mojave almost makes you wish for a nuclear winter.

Crowdstrike managed to fuck up Linux through eBPF just as well.

If you load hacky shit into the kernel it can always find a way to make a nasty surprise. eBPF is a little bit better fence, not some miracle that automatically fixes shitty code.
- Comment on Tesla Steers Onto Train Tracks It Apparently Mistook for a Road, Police Warn 3 months ago:
Somewhat ironically, autopilot for airplanes is more less attitude/speed holding for most history. More modern systems can now autoland or follow a preprogrammed route (the flight plan plugged into the FMS), but even then changes like TCAS advisories are usually left up to the pilots to handle. Autopilots are also expected to give control to the pilots in any kind of unexpected situation.
So in a way tesla’s naming here isn’t so off, it’s just the generic understanding of the term “autopilot” that is off somewhat. That said, their system is also not doing much more than most other level 2 ADAS systems offer.
On the other hand, Elon loves going off about Full Self Driving mode a lot, and that’s absolutely bullshit.

Try using a custom ROM on Android and you’ll quickly see.

Let’s use a protocol that shadily blocks everything google doesn’t like. Yeah, fuck that.

What’s with Lemmy and reposting really old things?
- Comment on For those thinking of going back to reddit. Gaze upon this comment section and reconsider. 8 months ago:
Eh, am from a country with 9mil people, and this society simply doesn’t get democracy. So being smaller is hardly any indicator that democracy will work better.
- Comment on Cable can't compete with 5G home internet, so it's cheating 8 months ago:
Yeah, travelling to Germany a few times, even data always sucks, both wifi and mobile. We joked that Germany has the beet economy in EU because the net is so bad people don’t waste so much time on Facebook…
- Comment on Cable can't compete with 5G home internet, so it's cheating 8 months ago:
It’s so weird to read these articles. I live in a shithole country, but even here fibre internet with 2.5gbps speeds is easily available… 5G ain’t bad but against it never feels replacing that kind of connection for me.
- Comment on User guide: End of Life (EOL) for Twilio Authy Desktop app 8 months ago:
That is true, though you could keep your password and totp databases separate theoretically. I’m not sure if keeping them in say separate apps brings much benefit if your phone/pc gets compromised though, as most people would have both available on their device… totp is more about convince, it’s never as secure as a hardware thing say yubikey.
- Comment on User guide: End of Life (EOL) for Twilio Authy Desktop app 8 months ago:
Keepass can do all, though TOTP support is not exactly what I’d call streamlined. Still works well nevertheless.
- Comment on Street Fighter Vs Mortal Kombat 8 months ago:
SF somehow feels more fluid? intuitive? to play than MK.
But neither allows the balls to the walls insane shit Mugen lets you to conjure! Or well, IKEMEN nowadays.

Hearts of Iron 4, and Battletech 3062 Advanced.
- Comment on Imagine everything humans could accomplish if we were not a commerce based civilization. 9 months ago:
Currency is a natural evolution of commerce. Direct barter only works if the person selling what you need wants something you have.
Say you want to buy flowers. If the florist wants shoes and you only have bread or hammers to spare, then tough luck.
Any large society cannot function with such a clunky way to exchange goods/services. Currency is merely a proxy that allows both sides to trade their goods using a tool they both value similarly. Hell, some civilisations used giant boulders as currency… it’s hardly a new concept.
