Look at the Logitech MX mechanical mini keyboard and Keychron K3 side by side
- Comment on Google To Allow Double Serving Ads. 2 days ago:
Or some cheap Raspberry Pi box or those sail the high seas streaming sticks or a Nvidia shield, so many better options than giving the Spyware and adware filled TV OS from getting access to your internet

Yeah, so far the Plex changes haven’t affected me but I’m prepared to move to Jellyfin at some point
- Comment on Logitech is dropping support for its oldest Harmony remotes 5 days ago:
Even their hardware design these days is them copying popular products from smaller tech companies
- Comment on Roku’s Moana 2 controversy is part of a bigger ad problem 5 days ago:
This bullshit is why I’m never buying a smart TV, and I can’t find a dumb one I’ll just attach a Nvidia shield or Raspberry Pi streaming box and just watch my Plex content on it. The days of paying to watch commercials should be long over

Reminds me of the prison system in the Minority Report movie.
I bet this is how Elons Sim would look like

- Comment on LibreOffice downloads on the rise as users look to avoid subscription costs | The free open-source Microsoft Office alternative is being downloaded by nearly 1 million users a week 1 week ago:
I ditched MS office for Libre long time ago, all I need it for is to open and view the occasional document anyways. For creating or editing documents I like Googles office suite better though

I never thought about it but yeah you are right, we can eat and drink stuff while on the move, plus we can sweat and control our body temperature

Or just push your entire vault to github or some other git host and then push and pull commits using the Git plug-in from the Obsidian community store
- Comment on OneNote to perish alongside Windows 10. 1 week ago:
Eww no, Teams is a Slack like work chat app, Outlook is an email client and email is the worst thing to happen to corporate communication, email is only good for company wide announcements. The threaded view of a email chat looks idiotic, I’ve never met someone over the age of 40 who knows how to find an old email with attachments, so they keep asking you to email them the same files as attachments over and over again, it’s slow as he’ll, nothings more excruciating than the silence where you are on a meeting someone sends a email to someone else and now everyone has to wait for the email to arrive in the inbox. If it’s not instant messaging I dont want it, “Yours sincerely” has no place in 2025 for me
- Comment on A Trump H-1B crackdown could hit Big Tech hard, with Amazon suffering most. 1 week ago:
Fuck knows what these morons want these days other than sowing chaos and stealing even more control and wealth away from the working class
- Comment on A Trump H-1B crackdown could hit Big Tech hard, with Amazon suffering most. 1 week ago:
It sort of is portable in the sense that if another company wants to hire you. They can initiate a visa transfer process so you can go work for them but that transfer process costs time and money, so it’s still designed to make it harder for people on visa to switch companies

And who do you think will suffer when they start outsourcing jobs, it certainly won’t be the rich people running this country. Attacking legal immigrants is meaningless unless they pass laws prevent jobs from getting outsourced and good luck with that
- Comment on A Trump H-1B crackdown could hit Big Tech hard, with Amazon suffering most. 1 week ago:
It’s more about control than money.
- Comment on A Trump H-1B crackdown could hit Big Tech hard, with Amazon suffering most. 1 week ago:
Exactly, when jobs get outsourced all that money leaves the country and doesn’t come back, Asia isn’t buying American goods all that much. China is pretty strict about preventing foreign companies from operating in China and India doesn’t allow foreign companies to directly do business in India. They have to spin off a profit sharing venture with a local company, that’s like 2 billion people right there and now with Trump antagonizing western allies, even Europeans are looking to move away from American businesses.

- Comment on Video game characters should swear when they get hurt 1 week ago:
Far Cry 4 is set in fictional Nepal but the NPC characters dialogues are recorded in Hindi which is an Indian language, one time I accidentally hurt some NPC’s and to my shock they started shouting curses in Hindi at me and attacking me. It was one of the funniest gaming moment for me. And because that dialogue isn’t translated to English they just went all out on the curses lol.
- Comment on Help 1 week ago:
Yeah that sounds good, but English isn’t my first language and I’m not that good at any games. Still worth a shot

How do people even have online friends, I only have occasional chats with strangers on Reddit or Lemmy but I wouldn’t call anyone a friend let alone meet them in real life
- Comment on Internet forums are disappearing because now everything is Reddit and Discord. And that's worrying. 1 week ago:
Make 1 to 1 copies of existing subreddits and maybe some kind of automation tool to take the subreddits someone is currently part of and subscribe the Lemmy versions of them automatically. That plus for now some people could repost content from these subreddits to Lemmy, so the feed isn’t so empty and also I don’t know how Google crawlers work exactly but searching for Reddit posts through Google is a big benefit of Reddit for me, if Lemmy could also show up in Google results or if Lemmy builds it’s own internal search to a level that’s equal to or better than Google that would also help

Playing games is the thing I almost never do on my Quest 3, I mostly just lie down and watch movies and TV on it, but it’s too bulky and uncomfortable for that, the new Bigscreen Beyond 2 looks amazing for that use, unfortunately it costs more than double of Quest 3, I’ll save up for it and sell my Quest 3 in the future, cause fuck Zuck
