Guess I’m lucky to have broken the mics on mine by accidentally throwing them in the wash?
- Comment on 'Technofascist military fantasy': Spotify faces boycott calls over CEO’s investment in AI military startup 4 days ago:
If might also just be a testament to how jank Apple Music on Android can be. Anyway, I just hope you find a solution that works well for you.

Rhisnis kinda funny to me because I was using Apple Music before, and I honestly feel it’s less jank.

I feel it’s been getting better. Like, it isn’t perfectly smooth, but I like what I get on the Frontpage way more than what I did with Spotify.
- Comment on Baldur’s Gate 4 may happen eventually, but not with Larian Studios 2 weeks ago:
I do, but I see that it’s a preference thing. However, the whole game/story felt to me like it was a passion project. I feel like it’s a gamble at best whether or not whoever hasbro finds to do it will be able to give it the same dedication.
- Comment on Trump Mobile launches $47 service and a gold phone 2 weeks ago:
3 years of security updates, ships with Android 14 and gets two version upgrades, to Android 16, which is the version being released right now. I feel that isn’t the solution either.
- Comment on I knew it 5 weeks ago:
I just think it’s ugly. Like, I’m honestly pretty indifferent towards Taylor Swift. Both about her music, and her as a person. Like, she isn’t great, but there are billionaires that are a lot worse than her. Who probably still live in less ugly mansions.
- Comment on I knew it 5 weeks ago:
That’s an ugly-ass mansion.

As someone guessed above - Stranded: Alien Dawn
- Comment on ‘Doom: The Dark Ages’ DRM Is Locking Out Linux Users Who Bought the Game 1 month ago:
Yup, Stranded: Alien Dawn.
- Comment on ‘Doom: The Dark Ages’ DRM Is Locking Out Linux Users Who Bought the Game 1 month ago:
Earlier this year, I got a game I liked on steam. Pretty much 3d Rimworld. After playing for 20 hours over a few weeks, I sporadically started getting errors about me having “no hardware activations” left for the game, and how I should wait 24 hours. I have never installed it on any other machine.
It is so very silly that a pirated copy would be the more seamless experience.
- Comment on Prices are out of control 1 month ago:
Hmh. Maybe I passed that wrong. The one I had is also mass market on the sense that they’re in quite a few supermarkets in several regions of one country.
Kerrygold is just ludicrously mass market, being available in a lot of supermarkets in over 100 countries.
- Comment on Prices are out of control 1 month ago:
Well, I’ve been vegan for years, but I usually had this stuff, I think.
- Comment on Prices are out of control 1 month ago:
Do people really see kerrygold as a premium option? I haven’t bought butter in a long time, but I always saw kerrygold as overpriced mass market shit.
- Comment on What OS should I use for self-hosting that doesn't require extensive terminal knowledge? 2 months ago:
I guess you could install cockpit (via Terminal, sorry, but it’s pretty straightforward and there are good guides). After that, you could use the cockpit web interface to deploy docker/podman containers. It’s a bit clunky sometimes, but it does the job purely in UI.
You can also manage updates, backups, etc via cockpit if you install the required modules.
As base, I’d use any stable Linux distro that’s reccomended for server use.

- Comment on The Fairphone 5 price has been dropped to €499. The phone is designed to be the most advanced environmentally friendly smartphone. 2 months ago:
Graphene doesn’t. The way I see it is like buying a laptop with pre-installed Windows, and replacing the OS.
- Comment on YSK that a new internet/account bypass during Windows 11 installs already exists. Here is a 7 step guide. 2 months ago:
Recently needed to set up a Win11 VM. It worked after removing the network adaptor from the VM setup, and then using the bypassnro command.
Fucking Microsoft.
- Comment on What host names do you use? 3 months ago:
Finally someone who actually uses a Vostro. Always found that name unreasonably funny.
- Comment on What host names do you use? 3 months ago:
I set up my current desktop while reading Gaiman’s The Sandman, so it’s called Morpheus. Because I felt I needed to keep with the theme, my laptop is hades, my phone persephone, my server apollo, my router helios, the media centre PC is orpheus, the pi that boots and updates it put of usage hours is eurydice, and the pi that runs home assistant is zeus (because it’s responsible for light(n)ing.
Oh, and the work profile on my phone is sisyphos.

I mean, didn’t he do that Carlson interview a few days ago? I wouldn’t put it past Trump to pardon him, as long as he keeps on message and drums up some attention.
- Comment on uhh… my ex girlfriend and long-time friend is now cishet, very christian, and makes those “i identify as” jokes regarding trans people. would it end up bad for me if i continued to be her friend? 3 months ago:
That’s bullshit, I’m good friends with several ex-partners. Might not work for some people, but definitely not a general rule.
- Comment on This speaks for itself 3 months ago:
The last time I ate McDonald’s, I arrived in Pasewalk, a tiny town in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern on a mich delayed train at 2 in the morning. They where the only place that was open, and I hadn’t eaten since noon.
That burger was kinda OK, but it might have been the circumstance. They stopped selling vegan burgers anyway, so whatever.
- Comment on Can I still consider myself a “young woman” after I turn 24? I turn 24 in March (next month). 4 months ago:
Yeah, but that’s why I don’t think fertility is a good measure of age in any way.
I don’t disagree with the numbers, I just don’t think they’re bound to any one aspect of the human body, nor do they need to be.
- Comment on Can I still consider myself a “young woman” after I turn 24? I turn 24 in March (next month). 4 months ago:
Not my experience, but that might depend on the people one interacts with. I’d also say that coupling being young to such a gendered parameter is questionable. When does someone who’s biologically male stop being young? What about people who can’t reproduce?
- Comment on Can I still consider myself a “young woman” after I turn 24? I turn 24 in March (next month). 4 months ago:
I dunno, to be honest. But for me, reproductive changes are a consequence of age, not the other way around. No single factor feels like it in itself is a sensible definition.
- Comment on Can I still consider myself a “young woman” after I turn 24? I turn 24 in March (next month). 4 months ago:
That’s a really weird definition of young.
- Comment on Apple turns off iCloud encryption feature in UK following reported government legal order. 4 months ago:
No? Kinda? I’d say a Pixel (so Google hardware, yeah) with Graphene, and either self-hosted, or independent end-to-end encrypted could storage.
There are alternatives to the tech conglomerates.
- Comment on The US Is Considering a TP-Link Router Ban—Should You Worry? 4 months ago:
There’s quite a few TP-Link Models that can be flashed with open source firmware. The ones I helped friends and family with seemed to get software updates consistently after being discontinued.
This isn’t an all out endorsement, but I’ve certainly seen worse.
