  I am afraid not.
  It’s with you like race. You can’t change it.
  If you’re part of any minority you’ll always attract these dumbasses.

  Sorry, I’d like to tell you something better.

  Ew.

  NileRed? Is that you?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Phones have unique phone numbers, why dont computers have unique computer-numbers?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Well, phone numbers do get re-assigned too.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A music converter app⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  This is what I use: play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.bdroid.…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Alternatively, you could use Navidrome.

  I use that because it’s natively available in Termux. Yes, Android terminal emulator. My music is on the SD card and I can share it to other devices using Navidrome on LAN. Since I also do this on school network, I put NGINX in front of it for HTTPS… and also because I don’t want to have each thing on separate ports.

  I have also got Jellyfin to work once in proot-distro, but I couldn’t reproduce it the last time.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  So… it’s a commercial service… relying on people doing piracy?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I did also get some suspicious audio from Deezer. It depends on what the publisher provides.

  Tidal also goes above CD quality, if you’re into that. Some songs go up to 192kHz at 24 bits.

  If we’re referring to such old phones, the only WAP site I know is the test from Nostalgia Nerd. From this video [YouTube]

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The retro Nokia phone everyone owned 25 years ago will get a reboot soon – and yes, it has Snake⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I’d rather like smartphone in a different package.
  Like so:

  I don’t think they still make such phones though.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The retro Nokia phone everyone owned 25 years ago will get a reboot soon – and yes, it has Snake⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  If possible, bookmark 68k.news and frogfind.com on those phones.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The retro Nokia phone everyone owned 25 years ago will get a reboot soon – and yes, it has Snake⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Eeh, they already did it with nokia 3310 and 8110 in 2018.
  So I guess it still seems worth it.

  As a sidenote, what the fuck, that was 6 years ago?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I lost mine⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Unless you also have a foil at the back of your phone, like.

  It’s a nice textured one, so it still feels good should my phone be out of the case. It also makes it less slippery.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I lost mine⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I still use one from the first phone I had which needed this crap. So I have 3 of them in total. Actually, 4, I’ve got one extra in a screwdriver set.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Yep⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  “Positive”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨high energy⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I do 3 with easter egg on other side of that corner.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft and IBM make MS-DOS 4.00 Open-Source⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Great.
  This should be the standard for old retired software.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Does Instagram or YouTube Shorts get you?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Too addicting, I try to stay away.

  The only good shorts I’ve seen are from NileRed and Vsauce.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Does Instagram or YouTube Shorts get you?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I am using the official YouTube app and there is a button to disable shorts.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Are you prepared for the ramifications of windows 10 EoL?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes I am.

  I hope for the cheap unsupported to be Linux machines.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Are you prepared for the ramifications of windows 10 EoL?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Windows 8, maybe. But Windows 8.1 was awesome. The optimization, it ran perfectly on a potato.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Are you prepared for the ramifications of windows 10 EoL?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  A few months back we just upgraded some school computers from Windows XP to Windows 7, so that checks out. They can barely run that anyway and get almost no use.

  It’s right there on proton.me

  It’s possible you checked protonvpn.com instead.

  Ah, greedy cheapskate as usual.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨SDF federation with lemmy.world is borked⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Oh, no, not really. It’s been stuck like this. The federation with lemmy.world does work, but there’s a 2-3 hour delay from lemmy.world to lemmy.sdf.org.

  They might be using IPoAC for last mile ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Are we back online?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Well, OK, it’s still not looking good. Previously it would start federating with everything in around 30 minutes, so this is odd.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨From SDF about the (not only) Lemmy outage⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  A board on their bulletin board accessible on their public access UNIX system.
  sdf.org/?tutorials/bboard-tutorial

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Are we back online?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Well, we are, with a few instances if you check the all new page.
  Might take a while.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨From SDF about the (not only) Lemmy outage⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t know.

  It seems they mostly monitor the REQUESTS board, but I am not sure if it’s actually meant for this. But there’s been many such posts, and they’ve been successful, so I guess that.

  I haven’t checked their IRC, but perhaps that works too.
