What is wrong with ps4 or ps3? Are the games not good because they are aged?
I do most of my gaming on ps1 and wii, and a bit on PC.

Huge phone, big app icons.
I try not to use apps other than my browser for privacy reasons, but also I’m super easily distracted so I try to keep the apps I freauently use on my home screen and HUGE so I don’t get distracted by other apps or bright colors.
- Comment on Post your homescreen 4 days ago:
I’m easily distractable so I have the scale cranked up and the color cranked down so I only do what I opened the phone to do.

This is true, but I try not to put such a heavy load on the TOR network personally. Its always good to have folks using it for clearweb stuff like this though, keeps the network legitimate.

FreeTube is a FOSS youtube frontend.
FreeTube occasionally has issues on videos with preroll ads where the video fails to play because the ad won’t be fetched. This can sometimes be mitigated by running an ipv6 rotator script and blocking freetubes access to ipv4. The one I run reassigns my ipv6 address once every 5 peels to a new randomly generated valid address.
Sometimes even this doesn’t block the ads (again causing the video to fail to play) in which case selecting the share icon from the freetube interface and clicking “open invidious link” will open a web browser pointed to whichever invidious instance is set to your default.
The freetube folks are working on implementing DASH, which should eliminate the need for these workarounds once successful.

FreeTube with an ipv6 rotator and Invidious will make sure you never have to deal with this.
- Comment on Heydey ho folks, anybody I know a decent search engine with a lite interface? 1 week ago:
I have 2 gigs of RAM my friend, all my browsing is done in Links or Offpunk, because i don’t have the system specs for a modern style browser.
In other words, I need an old Search engine, not a new browser
- Comment on Heydey ho folks, anybody I know a decent search engine with a lite interface? 1 week ago:
Lite.duckduckgo.com is what I’ve been using, but the issue isn’t the interface its the search results.
While anything more than basic HTML is gonna be a non-starter for my browsers, the actual issue here is quality of results.
- Comment on Heydey ho folks, anybody I know a decent search engine with a lite interface? 1 week ago:
Worth a shot for a free trial, thank you 🙏

Also I hope this isn’t the wrong place, initially I was gonna ask the privacy comm over at db0 but that DEFINITELY felt like the wrong place after I’d typed up my whole post

Friend, Taco Bell isn’t Mexican food. It’s honestly barely an attempt at one.
You could almost call it shitty tex-mex.

Do folks actually get the shits from Taco Bell? After 24 years of Taco Bell I’ve never had the shits from it. McDicks otoh, shits Everytime.

All of them.

- Comment on Is it possible to make wireless charging broadcast electricity throught an entire house similar to how wifi can broadcast to the entire house? 3 weeks ago:
While travel there is inadvisable, I’m sure you could find a place to live in “The Zone of Death”, a 50 squsre Mile section of Yellowstone National Park that is between jurisdiction for states and is largely unpatrolled. Travel there is highly inadvisable because of you get hurt, you’re not gonna get found, and you’re probably gonna end up prey or starve to death.
- Comment on Slurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrp 3 weeks ago:
The flash memory the OS is stored on is borked.
Filesystem check shows dependency errors attempting to check ext4 fs on /dev/mmcblk0p2. Assuming ext4 and fsck are installed (it should be if this isn’t a mega-custom ultra stripped down private distribution) this shouldn’t be possible.
Further down networking fails to initialize leading to a bunch of fails before it succeeds and reaches its target, only to be stopped by the dependency errors again.

Wearing Google wiretap instead of putting it in your home isn’t much better. Honestly it’s probably worse.

- Comment on Lemmy is a tech literate echo chamber 3 weeks ago:
Hon’ some people don’t know you can align the USB by checking if the holes on the outside are filled or not and have to deal with the unraveling the USB superposition dance.
Getting a USB in on the first try is considered wizardry by average person. Booting from one? May as well be Zeus with command of electrons like that.
