omg, thank you. i just learnt about the “tags” function that I’ve always assumed worked differently without even trying it
- Comment on Why Everyone Should Still Use an RSS Reader in 2024 9 months ago:
Feeder is a perfectly functional RSS reader for Android, and the only updated and straight forward one on F-Droid when I decided to set up my feeds, and an app I’ve seen suggested on Lemmy several times when there’s mention of RSS…but why doesn’t it have groups? I’ve got my general news mixed with tech news, cluttered in between the rest of it
this thread made me re-check and there are some new options in there and at least one will let you group the feeds: Read You

i’ve worked at a call center years ago on the retentions dep. of some mobile internet provider. after learning of such trickery, i’ll fucking tell everyone that will listen “hey mate, you’ve got a internet/telephone/cable tv subscription? are you in the “fidelity” period? (yeah that shit is a thing here…) ok so listen, AS SOON AS a second passes from the end of the period, this is how you get the actual decent price for service…”
some people had to stop me on my track several times because i was repeating myself to them (forgot who i’d already told about it) because i must make sure everyone knows
been doing it all these uears

i get what you’re saying, but you did not mention the benefit Google itself got from that data, that they’ll have to forfeit so that they won’t be able to provide it to the police

damn, we do give a shit about this! 500 comments in a day about something so simple
maybe we should strike for this
Bring BACK the JACK!!
- Comment on How many of you actually use the headphone jack on your phone? 10 months ago:
since i’m selling them so well and i can’t find a reference in the webs or in the object itself, here’s a photo
- Comment on How many of you actually use the headphone jack on your phone? 10 months ago:
i tried but can’t find any. they’re Pioneer wired earbuds with ear hooks (sports style), black in color, and were quite inexpensive - about 13€ IIRC
i have them for about 7, 8 years and, while i haven’t used them daily for all that time, i’ve done so extensively, a lot of times outside, while running and in different circunstances where i have not always been very careful with handling the wires
i’m quite amazed at their durability - something i am very fond of in the items i use frequently and that often frustrastes me
- Comment on How many of you actually use the headphone jack on your phone? 10 months ago:
almost daily. really glad with my current wired earbuds, they are lasting years with constant use, with really thin wires and all

- Comment on Ifixit gives fairphone 5 a 10/10 on repairability and maintanence 10 months ago:
One failing of Fairphone is you cannot buy the mainboard (the core component) from their store. All the other components yes, but not the mainboard. The core is not just the CPU, flash but also some other things like microphone are on it. It would also be nice if people could order all the parts that make up a Fairphone 5 and assemble one entirely from scratch.
good point. with the mainboard available they would be on Framework’s level and that would be amazing

thanks a lot for the second link!

i browse lemmy through an android client so i hadn’t found that ‘instances’ link, but someone mentioned it in a recent post that i saw just after posting this. thank you anyway

this is great! i have a friend who needs a new phone and is ordering one
i just wish they complied with the android stack security features so that it would be compatible with GrapheneOS. it would be the perfect phone
- Comment on Portugal Runs on 100% Renewables Dropping Consumer Electric Bills to Nearly Zero for 6 Days in a Row 11 months ago:
i’m glad for the renewable production hitting new heights
“consumer electric bills to nearly zero” is utter unsubstantiated bullshit, though
Portugal has one of the highest prices of electricity for consumers in the EU, while having one of the lowest purchasing powers
btw, shit is getting worse for most really, really fast, in part due to the gentrification and deluge of new residents with wallets unfathomably heavier coming from Germany, France, UK and USA to the new Florida of Europe

it’s native since inception, i believe
prolly even runs better than on windows, although it doesn’t really matter since it’s so freaking optimized
