  • Also there are a lot more types of meat than beef.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alpha-gal_syndrome

    The alpha-gal molecule is found in all mammals except catarrhines (apes and Old World monkeys), the taxonomic branch that includes humans.

    Sounds like you could still eat fish, human and chicken (and other bird) meat as usual.

  • Holy hell, the Ubuntu ISO is 6.3GB now. Soon it may not even fit onto a DL DVD.

  • price for a domain name

    Or host your own VPN on home network. Or use Tailscale VPN, that also works behind CG-NAT, and can usually get direct connection.

  • You guys have sound? I can't unmute it in Lemmy, and directly on Imgur the unmute is grayed out.

    Edit: Hmm, works on Firefox, again

    Not the first time some media worked only in Firefox, but not Chrome. Embedded FLAC wouldn't play (despite it being supported), WebSDR audio wouldn't start, from the other times I recall.
    Again being reminded to switch.

  • In China, coins and banknotes have all but disappeared

    Wouldn't that mean they're far more used than ever instead?

  • Advanced versions can even instruct your phone to change important settings under the hood and expose you to significant vulnerabilities.

    The scariest thing for me.

    At one point I got something along the lines of "Your carrier has changed some settings, tap to review.", once again showing me that my phone isn't mine.
    In this case it was emergency alerts, but I don't know what all they can change. It wasn't a carrier phone, by the way.
    I also found apps related to (I think) multiple carriers, just disabled by default on Moto G52 5G. Orange was definitely one of them.

  • My closest attempt at pronouncing that:

     <>
        
    echo 'šxʷməθkʷəy̓əmasəm' | aplay -c 1 -f u8 -r 2000 -t raw -
    
      
  • Unfortunately, when buying a phone I always have to make some compromise. If I aim for hardware or very specific feature, there's going to be a compromise in software.

    If I was looking for software, Google Pixel with GrapheneOS looks quite nice.

    To be specific with the key features/functionality of my phone:

    Software: Surviving high DPI without the software falling apart (I hate how large everything is on phones by default, plus >=600dp the tablet mode is awesome), OMAPI (needed for external eUICC), manual band mode selection (indoors and in vehicles this can sometimes make a huge difference, like from 35Mbps to 150Mbps based on my tests), manual cell tower selection (I haven't yet made much use of this apart from figuring out that towers in city seem to have 1km limit), and a lot of other stuff in Engineer Mode that I don't yet understand so I won't touch (some settings can persist factory reset).

    Hardware: 85.14Wh battery (22,000mAh for the more marketable way to write it, and for comparison, my ThinkPad has a 45Wh battery), Dual SIM + SD card (not hybrid), IR blaster, headphone jack, custom button (short, long, double click), 1,000lm light that sucks up 6W (I don't have a way to measure that though), night vision camera (IR), FM radio that works without earphones (still works better with them).

  • I've been trying to find it for a while now, but I can't.

    Constantly plays at Tesco supermarkets, goes like A ha a ha a ha, yuhoo yuhoo yuhoo, a ha ha haa haaa haaaa. No lyrics, just womans voice making these, I guess meant to be "happy and excited" noises made into a song that plays on repeat.

  • It also serves as a plug

    Yep, time for some sleep. My brain just auto inserted "butt".

  • I think workers would be better than drones. Drones can't even sting.

  • Without water, just the syrup.

    What do you mean "Slightly used"? What did you do with those strawberries?

    I just got my first switch, and I noticed it was manufactured on my first birthday.

    Outbound federation seems to be broken again. (Seems to be issue of Lemmy 0.19.0)

    Is there a FOSS app like Printer2Go, PrintHand, PrintShare and Nokoprint? (Large printer support and printing over USB)

    Long in the past, all the way back in 1993...

    Mildly Infuriating @lemmy.world

    Today I finally picked up my phone from in-warranty repair (motherboard replacement), I found out the camera doesn't work (it did before).

    People who've been to a (regular) party, what do people do there?

    Mildly Infuriating @lemmy.world

    Google Assistant tries to pull the "song name" out of anywhere instead of just identifying it by sound

    Selfhosted @lemmy.world

    Is there some way to play DVD ripped into .iso file in VLC (desktop) directly from a network (HTTP)? (It works on VLC for Android (mostly), but not desktop)

    Obeying the Rule

    sdfpubnix @lemmy.sdf.org

    What if there's a collision between sdf.org subdomains for services and homepages?

    What are some (realistic) things you wanted to get for a while, just for fun?
