I’m not sure that Sublinks will happen. It was breathlessly announced as if it was coming soon with the promise of regular updates. But here we are eleven months later with no updates at all.

To me it’s just seems like Lemmy and the Threadiverse are slowly evaporating.

Phones encrypt the data by default, your password or pin is also needed to authorise the connection with a computer.

However, many people do insecure things like storing passwords etc in Notes applications, or having simple PINs that are easy to guess, don’t update their devices, or even turning off security features (if they can) because they won’t take a small amount of time to understand them.

The point is that calling the computer storage less is what’s wrong.

I can see two issues here:

It’s not really a storageless computer. It’s using EFI as storage to build the ramdisk.

What happens if you need to change things because of a change of cloud account, change of cloud API etc etc

Yes, that’s exactly the point. Combining data is something that must be considered. (And in some jurisdictions like the EU you even need to consider if it could be combined in future with other data)

Not sure I agree entirely. The actions I take are definitely data about me.

Also, in many jurisdictions data that could be combined (even in the future) with other data to identify you or something about you, is considered personal data.

For example, Device ID is AstridWipenaugh’s device and they use the app in the morning.

I think you’ve missed the point. It’s not the data they are collecting but the fact they say they don’t collect data.

They weren’t actually tiny, they were about a metre long. But they do seem out of proportion.

They were very muscular and ended in very sharp talons, so pretty deadly.

But that’s pretty much the standard answer to any suggestion for improvement.

I was trying to explain to an elderly friend that people don’t just phone other people now and certainly not at times they will be doing something.

She found it hard to accept that many people find it rude to be called unannounced.

As an example, at one time if someone was organising a social event (eg party) they would phone around to invite people.

But that’s incredibly rude you are imposing on someone and also asking them to decide or excuse themselves on the spot.

I just tried it and it’s doing the same thing for me. I’m sure it worked previously.

this is just awful, there’s something weird in his arm, his head is on backwards (or his knees and feet bend the wrong way) and there’s a strange blue thing sticking out etc etc

This story has been popping up every few months for about the last decade. Usually prompted by someone with something to promote (a dumb phone, a book about downtime, some course )

I’m not sure why you’ve been downvoted. You are completely correct. There is a trail of partially finished projects. Pixelfed itself is in beta after years and years (and competitors seizing the opportunity with more polished products) , there’s SUP, Loops and that fedi directory to name three more.

Very good. I was going for The Woman with Half Her Leg Missing but Footloose is fantastic. I salute you.

You don’t feel much difference because they aren’t ten degrees hotter. OP is mistaken.

Dogs are 1 to 3 degrees Fahrenheit warmer than adult humans not 10. A temperature above 104°F needs urgent veterinary help.

Note that human babies and young children are also warmer than adults by about a degree.

Yeah, and some have screens on the front and back of the monitors. And those keyboards have hundreds of keys.

Is it “There’s too many legs and arms”?

Really wish people would learn how to use AI.

There’s AI and then there’s “Oh my God, one of them has a foot pointing backwards”
