- Comment on Feds in Catalonia, Spain think everyone using a Google Pixel must be a drug dealer 9 hours ago:
I’m more of a Fairphone guy myself.
- Comment on Reddit’s UK users must now prove they’re 18 to view many types of content 9 hours ago:
I’d prove I’m over 18 by purchasing a VPN subscription.
- Comment on Well-known VPN service shuts down, killing lifetime members' subscriptions 9 hours ago:
It was a lifetime deal. For the lifetime of the company.
- Comment on Feds in Catalonia, Spain think everyone using a Google Pixel must be a drug dealer 23 hours ago:
What sorts of drugs do you and your gang sell?
- Comment on Realized 99% of all my chargers are USB-C. This can only mean one thing. New USB bout to drop! 23 hours ago:
Nah, I just checked the USB Micro B cable that came with an older handsfree, all strips present but doesn’t carry data. So no standard.
- Comment on Using Clouds for too long might have made you incompetent 1 day ago:
Nah brah, knah waddahma? Running my own Nextcloud instance is basically what drove me to become a linux novice.
I used to be a windows gamer. Now I run my own home-LLM server for the self hosted cloud assistant.
People should try, it’s fun!

Here’s an idea, all C cables supporting any level of PD must have the specs stamped on both plugs.
- Comment on im frend :( 1 day ago:
How can I add you as a friend on Lemmy?
- Comment on Realized 99% of all my chargers are USB-C. This can only mean one thing. New USB bout to drop! 1 day ago:
The great thing about standards is that there’s so many to chose from.
- Comment on Realized 99% of all my chargers are USB-C. This can only mean one thing. New USB bout to drop! 1 day ago:
I don’t agree with the good ol’ days, beyond the blue connectors of USB3, there was no way of telling if a cable was charge only or data+charge. No way to tell if it was USB 1 or 2. If it was standard 0.5 amp or “fast charge”, up to 3 amps. There was a lot of different plugs, regular, mini, micro, A and B types.
I agree with everything you say about USB-C tho.

And that can only mean one thing!
- Comment on What are the privacy risks of exposing IP adresses? 2 days ago:
Sure.
- Comment on What are the privacy risks of exposing IP adresses? 3 days ago:
Not really, AFAIK the closest external actors can access is the general area based on the central you’re connected to.
Have you tried an IP lookup like What’s my IP?
- Comment on Can a Russian pls confirm 3 days ago:
As in “be careful so you don’t fart” or more like “you stank up the place with that sour fart”?
- Comment on Can a Russian pls confirm 3 days ago:
Well nobody asked you.
- Comment on Holy sh*t: Jack Dorsey just Announced Bitchat(A secure, decentralized, peer-to-peer messaging app for iOS and macOS that works over Bluetooth mesh networks) Licensed Under Public Domain. 3 days ago:
One runs a mailbox app on any old disused android phone, it temporary stores content and deliver it to the main unit once the connection is restored.
Bit simpler to install an app and scan a qr code for the average user compared to even configuring an XMPP client IMO.
- Comment on please don't tell my boss I've been posting memes on the clock 6 days ago:
smh
Kids nowadays has it too easy, back in my day we had to pretend we were using the toilet to meme on company time.
- Comment on Really?! 6 days ago:
It’s the cartoonized version of the profile pic of a mastodon power shit poster. She has some good stuff.
- Comment on Syncing podcasts / rss over nextcloud 2 months ago:
NC have modules for both gPodder sync and RSS. The RSS reader has been refactoring for ages so I just run FreshRSS instead but the NC module should work just fine.

My dude, this is Jacob’s Ladder as well.

- Comment on Google will develop the Android OS fully in private; Will continue open source releases. 3 months ago:
You’re quite right, I’ve forgotten how frustrating it was not knowing if I could get a hold of a replacement if my daily driver custom ROM Android gave up the ghost back when custom ROMs weren’t as widely supported as now.
- Comment on Google will develop the Android OS fully in private; Will continue open source releases. 3 months ago:
I thought Ubuntu Touch was dang near useable years ago, what someone considers “daily drivable” is probably subjective. If dumb phones had a web browser I’d probably settle for that as I self host and every service has a WebUI.
- Comment on Google will develop the Android OS fully in private; Will continue open source releases. 3 months ago:
I don’t need desktop linux to “take off”, I’ve happily used it for a decade. I don’t need mobile linux to become mainstream. I just need it to be a bit better than it currently is.
- Comment on Something Bizarre Is Happening to People Who Use ChatGPT a Lot 3 months ago:
The digital Wilson.
- Comment on Google will develop the Android OS fully in private; Will continue open source releases. 3 months ago:
Sounds like good news for mobile linux!
- Comment on Finally, FINALLY! SENPAI NOTICED ME! 3 months ago:
At least in our inboxes.
- Comment on Why I recommend against Brave. 3 months ago:
Vivaldi sends an unstoppable user counter signal to their main server, promised to change the system and now they’re ignoring any requests for updates on the issue.
That rustles my Jimmies, dings my bell and waves my red flags.
- Comment on Microsoft tells Windows 10 users to just trade in their PC for a newer one, because how hard can it be? 3 months ago:
As someone who routinely used to sink thousands of hours into games, and by that I mean 3000 hrs. on R6-3, 2500 hrs. on Squad and so on, the predatory practices of Microsoft, Steam and game developers have just turned me off gaming completely.
