Back in the day I used nsanedown.com. Seems to be around still.

If you use the kids YouTube app then there are no ads. On tv, you can use the regular YouTube app to switch to your child’s account and then no more ads.

That was cool to watch. Thanks for sharing!

It is surprising to realise that this is not more common. In Japan, basically every home and apartment comes with rooftop antennas and coaxial connections in multiple rooms. No need to pay for cable TV (BS and CS) unless you want to get more channels.

Yeah they definitely need $1,500 more than I do.

Although I have a compatible watch, I can’t update because my iPhone 8 cannot run iOS 17. Just get a message that your phone needs to be updated before your watch can. Which really means “You need to buy a new phone if you want to update your watch, even though your current phone runs fine”. Pretty shitty.

Do you cook? I use my old iPhone to view recipes in the kitchen. It’s attached to the backsplash with Velcro. It is always plugged into a charger, but it is connected to a smart switch (already had set my house up). Set a shortcut to turn on the charger when the battery is 20% and to turn off the charger when it is 80% so as to get the best battery life.

Wow that really sucks.

That’s sucks. I’m not from the UK but isn’t there already a line rental fee she has to pay monthly or yearly? Is the “upgrade” more expensive overall?

Seems maybe a mobile phone is a better solution. At least they still work if the power is out (not if it kills the cell network too of course).

But your mum would have to change her phone number and learn a new device. And remember to charge it.

I remember getting my grandma a mobile phone for emergencies (Nokia 3310) and it was so hard for her to grasp how to use it.

It kind of makes sense. I wonder if customers who only want a telephone line will be forced to sign up for an internet package anyway? Sure, there probably aren’t so many people. But still worth thinking about.

Buttery smooth on iPhone 8 here. Thanks so much. The overlay to denote a web link is appearing in random positions in compact mode though. I already sent a report through TestFlight which has screenshots.

I’m not able to see any posts in subscribed, but all and local work (lemm.ee and world). Other apps are showing the subscribed feed ok. Hmmm

Yeah. Like Memmy does this overlay for links

I like to keep everything on one page. Also, I am an app hoarder. Each folder has multiple pages, grouped together. Some icons are shortcuts which bring up a list of related apps. It looks like a lot but it works for me lol.

That’s smart! Just realise that you don’t actually own anything though, just license it. Which for the most part is the same. However, sometimes things like background music get changed due to licensing fees. So, for example , Scrubs (tv show) dvd is far superior to what you can purchase for streaming.

That’s all very well, but in some regions like Australia, Disney has or has announced the end of DVD and Blu-ray sales, which sucks.

When pulling out, we are often more distracted because we have just been doing something else. Conversely, when parking, we are already in driving mode so it is easy to concentrate. Pulling put forward seems safer to me, as I can see everything so less likely to have an accident.

Also, it is normal where I live to reverse park.

I have an Epson (not eco tank) and it has this. It is called a maintenance box. But you can get one off Amazon etc for a few dollars and it is easy to replace, just one screw off the front. The display literally shows you how to do it!

I love my Epson. I use generic cartridges and they work fine. When you install a generic cartridge it gives you a warning, and that’s it. I have it on wifi but I have disabled firmware updates in the settings.
