Could be a hardware issue. I am running the same and haven’t seen any of that stuff. Sucks that you have though

Weird. Which model and OS is this happening on?

What does that mean to you? I hear people say this all the time but I haven’t come across anything my phone couldn’t run in over a decade. I haven’t had a flagship or top tier phone in that whole time either. Are you talking about actual functionality issues or just theoretical stuff and benchmarks?

Damn, I guess he can’t play the same game that’s been rereleased annually for 20 years then huh. What a bummer

I love it. Perhaps it would have been more effective to just do whatever they did to the swings at the other parks? Either way it’s good stuff

- Comment on Large-scale online deanonymization with LLMs 2 weeks ago:
Seems like we could all just mellow out a bit. You shouldn’t need to be afraid of saying stuff that isn’t perfectly pc now or in the past. Obviously there’s a difference between an off color joke and shit you would find in the Epstein files but I’m not particularly concerned about anything I’ve posted coming back to me. I’ve had bad takes (I’m sure I still do) and said things in the past that I no longer agree with, but who cares? That’s what life is like. You change over time in more ways than one. If someone wants to judge me harshly for that then we probably don’t weren’t going to hang out anyway so fuck em. Let them react how they want.
That being said, the implications of this kind of technology being used by corporations or the government are quite different. There may be value in what you’re saying from that perspective.
- Comment on AIs can’t stop recommending nuclear strikes in war game simulations— Leading AIs from OpenAI, Anthropic and Google opted to use nuclear weapons in simulated war games in 95% of cases 2 weeks ago:
Whoever wrote that prompt seems to think that other nations having their own ideologies is the worst thing possible. That’s a common attitude regarding geopolitics that I’ve never really understood, especially from a Western perspective where differences in opinion are supposed to be seen as valuable (at least in the theoretical sense).

That kind of thing is funny if done infrequently but annoying if it’s all the time. I hope your friend does actually laugh a good chunk of the time
- Comment on Amazon BUSTED for Widespread Scheme to Inflate Prices Across the Economy— Amazon, its vendors, and competing retailers are price fixing, hiking up prices for consumer products 2 weeks ago:
Amazon isn’t the cheapest option in many cases. What you’re saying makes sense if people shop around, the problem is that they generally don’t.

Haha do what works for you. I was able to get into them after a long car trip where I forced myself to listen to an audiobook. After finishing it it got easier and easier the more I did it. Now I barely read physical books.

Interesting, than you for sharing. It sounds like your use case is indeed very different from mine. Do what works for you

Then refuse to participate. Use open source software and any other kind of system outside their control until they throw you in jail. That’s what I’ll be doing. If enough of us do they can’t jail us all. Participation is consent.

Where can you find the kind of support you speak of? I rarely call any kind of customer service line but I haven’t seen anything but the bad kind in over a decade
- Comment on Fairphone 5 bricked by faulty Android 15 update 3 weeks ago:
I always hear people say stuff like this but realistically how often are you guys using these banking apps on your phone when that is your only option? I don’t even have any banking apps installed because it’s just not something I ever need to look at on the go. Anything I need to do gets done on a different device when I’m at home or I go to the actual bank building (I almost never do that either).
I’m not saying there’s no functionality problems with alternative mobile OS’s but this one in particular just seems overblown to me.
- Comment on What's a good audiobooks server/client combo? 3 weeks ago:
Haha I get that. I was the same way for a long time but gave them another shot a year or so ago and now I’m hooked. They are so much more convenient than physical books
- Comment on What's a good audiobooks server/client combo? 3 weeks ago:
Nice, it sounds like you’re learning stuff just fine. I recommended it elsewhere in the comments here but if you’re looking for audiobook sources I suggest checking out libro.fm.
- Comment on What's a good audiobooks server/client combo? 3 weeks ago:
Libro.fm seems to be a solid paid service. They give half of your purchase price to a local bookstore of your choice and you can download the files in multiple formats with no DRM.

Set up audiobookshelf via docker. I like using portainer to manage docker containers because it has a GUI. Command line stuff is more difficult if you don’t have the background experience to go with it. I think doing it all in a GUI feels more comfortable for most people.
Docker can also be kind of intimidating if you are just wading into the self hosting world but it really is much simpler to use once you get the hang of it. Portainer helps a ton with that. Audiobookshelf would be great to start with both imo because it’s a pretty basic set up. You have to define a storage location for your library and config files and that’s about all it takes to get it up and running.
I recently got into all this and remember well what it was like to feel out of my element so feel free to ask questions if you have any. I’m no expert but I’m happy to share what I can.
