It gets better too. I suppose it depends on your distro and hand ware mix as for what works out of the box.

Eg. my pure AMD Rog Zephyrus laptop worked with Fedora pretty much “out of the box” once I enabled 3rd party drivers.

It’s kinda like switching to stick shift— it’s touch weird, but once you’ve daily driven it a bit the system is second nature.

Fr, do people get their Reddit shit posting monetized?

Water is S, Milk is A, and Beer might be D tier. It’s bad for you like the drinks in F tier, but you at least catch a buzz.

I’m on a similar system for work, it’s not nearly as bad. Maybe thirty seconds or so?

That’s fair — I view the two as severity.

I’m youngish, and as I started my thirties I started to notice the most common thing with the young is they wield political theory a bit too homogeneously.

Like, when I realized I was a lefty in my twenties every issue started to be framed in how capitalism was the noxious root of the problem, but I lacked the real world context where pointing that out wasn’t helpful.

Now if someone came along with information that confirmed my perspective I used less scrutiny— because they were “like me” and “we’re one of the ‘good’ guys so they wouldn’t lie to me.” Now, I’m unsure if aging is going to make this better or worse tho 😅 I’m just more aware of it now.

I keep an Android and iPhone. Apps tend to be more polished/available on iOS versus Android. However, if you don’t plan on installing your own OS, use the UI customization (launchers and what not), or install apps via .apks — which isn a large percentage of the population — an iPhone is fine. Heck, you may save money if you either sell it second hand to finance your new phone, or use it until it doesn’t receive support. Heck, I’m in the camp of spending $799 on a handset in 2019 that will get major updates through 2026 and security updates through 2028/9 (should Apple follow their support pattern, of course).

Don’t get me wrong, I like my Pixel with GrapheneOS with its perfectly tuned UI, but if I’m flying out for a weekend trip — I’m bringing my iPhone along for reliability, and integration with the world around me.

Aren’t conspiracies spread on social media proliferating through the older demographic? I don’t think it’s unique to age.

“… caught slowing down old models…”

Are you referring to the iPhone 7 thing?

Florida. You’ll be out at least a week or so every year. The summer sometimes can cause outages.

Which is making me sad. 3d printing is so open atm, but I wouldn’t be surprised if enshittification will take place in this space in my lifetime.

Hey man, I work on a Microsoft full stack — VS corrupts files or locks up regularly 🤷That’s before we touch Windows on a server box

May I introduce: War Gaming :)

TIL. Thank you very much. Looks like I'm going to be using that if YouTube gets even more painful.

I know it's a pain, but what's to stop us from using download-clis? In theory I could "collect" the urls that are recommended to me from my home page, call the clis, click all the videos to update my recommendations then close the browser.

People are incapable of turning a light side ways and keeping it parallel to the ground. Really isn’t hard.

Well, I wouldn’t call it a “brain dead take”. I usually keep an Android and an iOS handset and I view each with a set of drawbacks and payoffs. The former (usually) allows you to unlock the boot loader without drawbacks and the latter does not. The latter is exclusive to a set of hardware. So if you want to have iOS you’re consigned to using the hardware deemed acceptable by Apple — but if someone were to accomplish “the brain dead take” a whole host of hardware would be available to you. There’s utility to that for some people.

I'm not a law person, but I think this strategy sounds like the attorney is trying to argue the murderer had no clue of this health condition, and therefore he was neglagent -- but not intending to kill.

My two cents after reading. Bold move, we'll see if it works.

Lessons in Chemistry is fire.

Tbf, I did have a Lemmy user passionately argue Joe Rogan has never had a white supremacist on his show -- I pointed at Alex Jones and my notif bubble was red for a few days there 😅

I'm not 100% off Reddit, I still venture over there for my WarHammer faction updates. But holy shit, I dipped my toe outside that circle recently and it's a cesspool of anger.
