  Last time I ordered something off of Amazon the delivery driver did not even attempt to deliver. On the 3rd day amazon sent me a notice saying “if we miss you again we are sending your order back” (This was a mission critical device that only sold on amazon at the time)

  I watched the amazon delivery truck drive right past my fucking house without even fucking attempting to stop. I ran barefoot in the rain a block behind the van and asked them to deliver my fucking package.

  They gave it to me, but I’m still fucking pissed about it.

  Yeah I totally hear you on the time thing. I think the stuff on Apple Photos should be relatively easy to import to immich and ente just based on a quick skimming of the guides. But like you said, having to find the time is understandable. I wish you luck on your journey to becoming a real linux boi, lol

  Your original example made sense I just wanted to share something in case it was helpful, your new example makes sense too though :p

  I’d just like to bring Immich (Self-Hosted) and Ente (Service or Self-Hosted) to your attention as ethical alternatives to Apples walled garden Photo storage. Hope you have a nice day :)

  Thrift stores usually have some older dumb TVs if youre okay with 1080p, and Sceptre still makes dumb consumer-grade TVs if you are willing to shop on Amazon or at Walmart

  its so funny that it must’ve Mandela-ed my memories to make me believe I had seen this yesterday. and last week. and the week before.

  ho-ly shit. this was a good read and it damn well predicted where we are almost 9 years on. 2 things that stuck out

  1. “It’s not like I’m predicting that airliners will fly slower and Nazis will take over the United States, is it?”
     this one… just like, reading it was like oh boy little do you know.

  2. “It might be Facebook or Twitter messages optimized to produce outrage, or it could be porn generated by AI to appeal to kinks you aren’t even consciously aware of.” This one really hit the nail on the head. Whether its boomers on Facebook watching fake baby interviews, or everyone else on Reddit and TikTok falling for rage bait (and the gooners on X). Just… man. Why don’t people get off their asses and fucking do something about this stuff? Why didnt they? I try to vote, and call local electives, participate in my community and keep people informed but Jesus. i dont know where we’ll end up by 2036 if we aren’t enslaved by that point.

  I’d love to get my family off the disinformation train, but when they’ve come to believe Facebook Sora slop more than their own flesh and blood it becomes easier to stop giving a shit and just hope they get fucked over by what they’re voting for, rather than even attempt to play psychologist and figure out what stupid way to word something so it sticks in their thick god damn skulls.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Me and Grandpa, we believe⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I dont disagree with you there, the theoretical “we” refers to the entire lemmy shitpost community. I only responded to you because i wanted to make a point to the people who agreed with you, but upvoted that post (Im assuming there is a large enough overlap that someone wouldve thought about it)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Me and Grandpa, we believe⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Im confused about where we’re drawing the line, because this slop from yesterday in this same community had 500+ upvotes

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Screw your zodiac sign, tell me...⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  There are other sources but the reason I linked corelle directly is because they admit that pre-2000s plates have trace lead amounts. They use weasel wording sure, but it says it.

  Are Corelle® products lead-free?

  … Corelle was first introduced by Corning over 50 years ago and in 2000 started to be manufactured by the company known today as Instant Brands.

  … Before 2000, and before tighter lead content safety regulations, a small amount of lead was an ingredient in the decorating process of many household products.

  There are other sources, but most of them are websites ive never heard of. Figured corelle was the easiest source to link.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Screw your zodiac sign, tell me...⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  just a PSA for those of you unaware; these plates up until 2004 contained lead paint. If you’re using these plates, uh. dont. Use them as decorations or get rid of them immediately.

  Source (check the FAQ for the question about lead)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The moment we've all been waiting for: you now can have targeted ads on your 2k smartfridge⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Picture this; A stereotypical couple in their mid to late fifties. Their fridge just broke, and they need a new one ASAP before their food goes bad. They go to the closest appliance store and browse. The salesperson gets commission on sales and really tries to sell them on the most expensive fridge. This couple does not keep up with the latest consumer rights violations, same as most people. The salesman convinces one of them that the Smart fridge is exactly what they need. It keeps track of when their food will expire, gives reminders to use up ingredients, has timers for cooking, and comes with an app for recipes. The other person is not convinced but they agree to buy it anyway to make their partner happy.

  They get it home and it’s okay at first. It does what it’s supposed to. Then one day, they get an ad for Apple+ which they canceled a few months ago. It mentions one of their names. How were they supposed to know this would happen? Did the salesman inform them of the advertising capabilities? Did it say it on the box? Realistically, this happens way more often than you would think. It’s punishing your friends and family to insult them for not knowing better. We should be pre-emptively teaching them about these practices, not bullying them. Bullying them will only reinforce their purchase because thats how human psychology works.

  Relavent XKCD:

  Panel 1: I try not to make fun of people for admitting they don’t know things. Because for each ‘thing’ everyone knows by the time they’re adults, every day there are, on average 10,000 people in the U.S. hearing about it for the first time. Fraction who have heard of it at birth: 0%. Fraction who have heard it by 30 ≈ 100%. U.S. Birth rate ≈ 4,000,000/year. Number hearing about it for the first time ≈ 10,000 a day. Panel 2: If I make fun of people I train them not to tell me when they have these moments. And I miss out on the fun. P1: Diet coke and mentos thing? What’s that? P2: Oh man! Come on we’re going to the grocery store. P1: Why? P2: You’re one of today’s lucky 10,000.
