They do the thing until the thingymajogger flips, obvs.
- Comment on Ice obtains access to Israeli-made spyware that can hack phones and encrypted apps 21 hours ago:
I mean imo everyone’s threat model should be at least their local police if not the national authorities. Local cops have cellebrite. Only the latest pixel is secure before first unlock on this chart.

Soo basically to stay ahead of this you gotta have the newest pixel running the latest build always… that sounds expensive.
- Comment on 'Keeping Retro Alive' - a chat with the developer of Batocera (my article!) 2 days ago:
Very cool. I’ve got an old Dell mini PC running batocera and I very much like it. My only gripe is that scraping the art for a large library takes an obscene amount of time.
- Comment on Inspiring. Innovating. 3 days ago:
I started playing around with solar just for hobbyist/emergency preparedness type stuff and it’s actually crazy how good and cheap the tech is now. With blackrock getting into the power grid business and datacenters driving up prices I’m considering investing in enough panels/batteries to run most of my daily power usage so the price hikes don’t hit as hard later on.
- Comment on DM me on Spotify: Spotify launches a messaging feature. 1 week ago:
How has nobody used to mention that this ALREADY used to be a feature they had before they killed it. I remember in high school me and the girl I was dating used to send eachother playlists. I didn’t even know spotify had killed the feature until I went looking for one of those playlists in my inbox that used to be there.

Nah if the company specifically contracts with Arizona to put their branding where the 99c would go they can do that. Circle K

- Comment on Slurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrp 5 weeks ago:
Kernel panic indeed. 3mg is quite a bit of 'cid, and amphetamines tend to make trips pointy and bad. Tequila might balance it out tho. Lime sorbet for the ice cream maybe?

Infectious with diseases you ask? NO! Infectious with laughter and positive energy.
- Comment on Why do people hate coldplay? 1 month ago:
Aww cmon Kasabian has a good album or two. I feel that about Coldplay’s first four albums. I don’t think it’s a stretch to say they fell off at a certain point and became just another group pumping out four chords and repetetive refrains over a dance beat. If anything my dislike for them is rooted in the fact that they used to be better.

So wait, you’re telling me their isn’t actually a disproportionately high number of addicts, criminals, and lunatics in Florida?
- Comment on Why is lemmy so political?! 2 months ago:
Lemmy has always been this way AFAIK, but let’s be honest if there was ever a time that people need to be be aware of politics it’s now.
- Comment on Gives a mom a reason to live 5/5 2 months ago:
See a box with a built in tap is dangerous for me, it lasts half as long as it would in a bottle. Plus I swear it makes for the WORST hangovers.

Wouldn’t you just go by the same alignment as you would on the spine of a book? First letter at the top and read downwards.
- Comment on Grieve with me 3 months ago:
Bricked my first iPod back in the day using a sewing needle to fish lint out of the headphone jack. I must have nicked or bridged something inside because it started behaving so oddly as to be unusable before finally refusing to turn on at all.
- Comment on Generational differences 3 months ago:
There’s actually a thin plastic membrane on the inside of most cans. It helps preserve the taste of the product. There’s a couple cool chemistry videos on YouTube where they use acids to dissolve the metal without damaging the plastic, leaving a weird bag of soda with a can lid.

Kiwix will parse the en_all .zim file just fine… I’ve got and tested it at this point, the issue I was having is that I couldn’t get Kiwix’s own link to successfully download the file.
- Comment on After they kill Wikipedia history will be AI hallucinations. 3 months ago:
Thank you so much for this. I have been trying to offline Wikipedia for months but the torrent links on the kiwix site are broken or something. They stall out for me in the first 10m everytime. The download from your link is working perfectly.
