I was lucky i found this store that sells second hand devices from big companies that have bought too many? ( dunno how it actually works), but the quality is sometimes fully new, or have been used briefly; much cheaper and older models like my S10E, which I think it's from 2018.
I tend to break phones rather often unfortunately (very clumsy, small hands and lack of pockets) so I want to have something like this still available. I do use screen and case protectors and all that. It still lands on the floor quite often :/
Whenever we drive through one of these we're stressed about finding the right exit and the GPS stops working inside the tunnels so we end up coming out where we didn't mean to.
We don't own a car or anything anymore, but I really don't miss these.
Same. My partner and I are engaged but there's never going to be a diamond in the picture. If they had found the diamond ritual important, we wouldn't be too compatible.
I also cannot deal with rings in general due to sensory issues.
We do want to find some kind of wearable, interesting symbol though.
People say that the point of activity pub is federation but to me that also means voluntary federation. The possibility of federation. What I dream for it is an option to opt-in instead of opt-out. You should be able to pick "opt-out" if you want a big, connected place. You can have your cake and eat it too by also keeping an account in a big instance of your choice. Most apps let you switch accounts with a tap or two.
We don't all want to be thrown into the world all the time; complete federation just makes it a safe space for majority populations and marginalizes minorities by default. No, I'm not saying you're all evil and exclude people on purpose, it just happens. It happens to me too.
Some of you seem to think that marginalized people are too soft and want a safe space, but you fail to notice that largely, you also have a safe space for yourself, it's just that you probably belong to the default in many areas (I am sighted and most of the internet is made for sighted people).
I grew up in a small forum; people should be able to choose to keep things small, and open in a controlled way. Because that's the beauty of activity pub, you can still federate with others!
I understand the very practical problem of lack of moderation tools and to me that's pretty much the only reason to leave, for now. Maybe come back if it gets better?
Honestly, nothing. No matter how strong my interest is in something, it will eventually shift dramatically and I'll have trouble listening to any other thing.
Not the person you replied to, and not a kink, but:
I would absolutely be more willing to clean my ears if I had this straw-like mechanism. I still do it, but it feels like a huge effort. I also end up with drops all over me.
I love the kind of mangoes I used to get in the tropics. Small, very sweet, yellow skin with soft fibers. I'd plock them directly from any tree around me. The skin itself was soft and sweet so no peeling needed.
There's another kind of mango that locally we called "manga". It's bigger, often with reddish and greenish colors mixed with the yellow. It's more fibrous and significantly less sweet. I really don't like these, but it's all I can get where I live now, possibly because the ones I like are harder to preserve and export.
This sounds like a boast but it's actually sad? Like I live in Europe and a lot of people I know seriously have functional alcoholism, but it's normal enough that nobody thinks it a problem until it is. Alcohol is a pretty strong drug. It doesn't matter if you can "take it", it's still doing things in your body.
Now that I think about it, I had to tweak some settings for HZD according to some guide, but I don't remember exactly what I did. After that, it worked quite well. Perhaps it wasn't 60 fps but 40? For me that was good enough.
It could still depend on standards. For example people seem to say Rimworld is great on the Deck but I absolutely disagree.
Tried Hollow Knight for the first time on the Deck, it works so well!
I'm not even specially good at gaming but I thought Hornet (a Hollow Knight boss) was quite enjoyable and not that hard and I wonder if it has to do with the Deck controls, since everyone has mentioned how difficult that one is (I did find all other bosses very difficult so this is not a boast).
Edit to mention that Horizon: Zero Dawn is another one that I only tried with the Deck and it also works really well, though this one consumes a lot more battery compared to HK.
