Bad times tend to pass. I find myself forgetting in the moment sometimes and yeah, life is frequently enjoyable in lots of different ways, so I try to remember that.

I feel like QAnon keeps upping the ante on the term “unhinged”
Yeah, maybe some kind of situation where you turn it on for “training time” with access to only specified files and systems on the computer, no internet access, etc. At the same time though, I wonder how much an AI could really streamline things. Would it just pre-load my frequent files and programs? Make suggestions or reminders on tasks? I don’t think we’re anywhere near the level where it could actually be doing work for me yet.
Interesting possibilities, but I’m not sure how useful yet.
I hate this but I also get it.
A little while ago on the TWIT podcast one of the guests, or maybe Leo himself, was talking about how this is exactly what they want out of AI, for it to be able to know how they use their computer and just streamline everything. Some people are really excited about the possibilities, and yeah, the AI needs to track whatever you’re doing to know how to help you with your work flow.
That said, I don’t want Microsoft keeping track of everything I’m doing. They’ve already shown that they’re willing to sell our data and shove ads down our throats, so as much as they say we can filter out what we don’t want tracked, I’m not inclined to trust or believe them.
IMO, they generally replace a period, comma or exclamation when used. In the cases where it’s a necessary question mark or something like that, I’d put the emoji after👍
I’ve been using this a few months and recommend it as well. It’s serviceable but feels a bit janky. Scrolling and switching between view styles tends to leave black boxes on my device, and the UI doesn’t always disappear while scrolling. But I’d still recommend it for how light and fast it is on top of being FOSS
Truth. I was genuinely angry seeing how Spotify kept trying to buy up everything podcast related. Felt like I was screaming into the void about how platform exclusive podcasts are antithetical to the free and open nature of podcasts. I hope their billions of dollars invested into podcasts continue to bite them in the butts.
Somehow I think Podcasts will survive enshittification. The basis is just RSS and file hosting, so at its core, it’s possible to create and distribute podcasts without huge capital investment. There’s always gonna be some people trying to get their voices out and Podcasts still seems to be the easiest way to do that so until some better method comes out, podcasts will live on.
If you’re talking about Podcast networks, streaming services, ad networks, then yeah, those might face some kind of enshittification and destruction, but no matter what, I’m pretty confident some good podcasts, and some good ways to listen to them, will stick around.
Lists and prep.
To be fair, my issues were not clinical, but having plans for dealing with whatever was the trigger for my anxious thoughts and feelings always left me with the feeling of “oh, this is manageable” or “this is too out of my control to worry about” and both thoughts bring relief.
I used to sail the seas like freakin Luffy, but Netflix and Steam (plus becoming a wage earning adult) got me on the straight and narrow for a good long while. Then when all the different services started to compete I started dipping my toes in the water again with some sense of guilt. But after various struggles getting Netflix running in different locations I frequent and my parents not being able to use my account anymore, I have no shame flying the Jolly Roger.
You’ve described my perfect smart watch. I hate the rush for features and better brighter touch screens when all I want is a non intrusive notification device that won’t accidentally call my boss fat when my wrist grazes any other part of my skin.
The Pebble was too good and spoiled my opinion of every smart watch I’ve used since.
I believe the joke is calling Apple old fashioned for still sticking to a proprietary cable and/or calling proprietary cables old-fashioned in general. But also, Apple will be switching the iPhone cables to USB-C next gen iirc, so maybe it’s also old fashioned that way?
I mean, if privacy is really your concern you really shouldn’t use UK servers at all or any other country that’s part of the Five Eyes (or other such alliances https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Five_Eyes).
Also, people use VPNs for different reasons, like not wanting your workplace to know your browsing Lemmy during office hours. This is such a strangely confrontational post considering people seem to just be trying to help OP troubleshoot their problem.
On the original point, I can’t seem to access APKPure either, VPN connected to Singapore. Might try other connections when I’m not at work.
Even being dead can’t free people from atrocities… What the fuck
I read AC as Animal Crossing first and was so confused, especially about the power fantasy part.
For any other idiots like me, I think it’s supposed to be Assassin’s Creed? Correct me if I’m wrong
A friend in high school made nude drawings of another mutual friend. It was weird he showed me but he was generally an artsy guy and I knew he was REALLY into this girl and it was kind of in the context of showing he his art work. I reconnected with the girl years later and talked about this and while she said it was weird she didn’t really think much of it. Rather, the creepy part to her was that he showed people.
I don’t think we can stop horny teens from making horny content about their classmates, heck, I know multiple girls who wrote erotic stories featuring classmates. The sharing (and realism) is what turns the creepy but kind of understandable teenage behavior into something we need to deal with
