Yeah I’ve considered it. But it’s just so loong.
- Comment on BlackBerry's iconic keyboard patent has expired 1 day ago:
I was a palm treo man myself. I was way faster after a year or two on those than I am after a decade of iPhone.
- Comment on BlackBerry's iconic keyboard patent has expired 1 day ago:
Very nice, I didn’t know this existed. Looks very blackberry-esque.
- Comment on BlackBerry's iconic keyboard patent has expired 1 day ago:
I hope we see more keyboard phones. I’d buy an iPhone with a keyboard.

Mastodon has a lot of work to do to catch up to Bluesky, but I hope they do it.
- Comment on Reddit will lock some content behind a paywall this year, CEO says 5 days ago:
Well Reddit wouldn’t be the juggernaut it is now if Digg hadn’t done similarly stupid things and paid the ultimate price. Social media sites do fall, and Lemmy grows a little every time this happens. I honestly don’t care. I like Lemmy how it is now.
- Comment on PassMark sees the first yearly drop in average CPU performance in its 20 years of benchmark results 1 week ago:
It may have to do with spending more of the die on NPU and GPU features? Some of these new integrated processors have massive GPU cores on them.
- Comment on Freed At Last From Patents, Does Anyone Still Care About MP3? 1 week ago:
No doubt there are many superior codecs. Opus is amazing, we use it for voice and video over IP. But I doubt anything will ever be as universally playable as MP3.
- Comment on Freed At Last From Patents, Does Anyone Still Care About MP3? 1 week ago:
It’s still my preferred format. Everything can play it. At 256kbit or better it sounds fine for usual listening.
- Comment on Kagi Introducing Fair Pricing 2 weeks ago:
Oh yeah, I’m never buying a subscription. I’m still on the trial, it’s been more than 6 months already. But I would pay them something for occasional use of their search engine.
- Comment on Striving to make your life meaningful? 2 weeks ago:
I don’t enjoy arguing but I do enjoy random conversations and posting random shit and seeing the reaction. I know I’m not supposed to like it but I do.
- Comment on Kagi Introducing Fair Pricing 2 weeks ago:
Yes I use DDG which gives me similar results for most things. When I can’t find it there I go to Kagi. It has sometimes surprised me with much better results, but the cases are rare. I’d happily pay them 10 cents a search or something for those cases where I need to try it.
- Comment on Kagi Introducing Fair Pricing 2 weeks ago:
I need per search pricing. Their plan includes way too many searches and is way too expensive. I use it like 2-3 times a ml th.

- Comment on Almost the entire US South is now being blocked by Pornhub 1 month ago:
Yandex can be a good search engine for this. From the search engines you can often find surprising ones with lots of full length videos like www.freevideos.xxx

Nice graph with no freaking labels.

- Comment on The Economy and the Environment are two sides of the same coin. 1 month ago:
It’s not just you, it’s capitalism in general. The incentives without government intervention are entirely to plunder the natural resources to the maximum extent possible as quickly as possible, because without government intervention, they are all basically free, despite having massive value.

Yeah that would make sense.

One is the title of the book, the other is the words he wrote on the shell casing.
- Comment on don't be a coward 2 months ago:
I doubt crabs could make it as an intelligent interplanetary species. I mean claws are cool and all, but really tough to use tools with.
- Comment on Apple's controversial iPhone accessory may have been discontinued 2 months ago:
Imagine simping for a 3 trillion dollar company that did this for the sole purpose of making more money on wireless earbuds. SMH.
- Comment on The Great Migration to Bluesky Gives Me Hope for the Future of the Internet 2 months ago:
It’s true, that’s the advantage of Reddit. But when I compare my homepage of Reddit after 15 years of refinement to that of my lemmy homepage after 1 year, my lemmy one is way better. Most of those niche communities devolve into memes and nonsense after a while. Great for searching, but for actually getting content on a regular basis from, mostly a waste of time.
- Comment on The Great Migration to Bluesky Gives Me Hope for the Future of the Internet 2 months ago:
They don’t have to have everyone on them to be good. In some ways it’s preferable not to. Reddit was far better before the Digg migration, and we might already be living in the golden years of Lemmy and not even realize it.
