Butlerian jihad incoming?

Start of October

Sorry, this is a community for posting dog pictures. To post a picture of your duck, try !quackers@lemmy.world

I use fancy zones, and also the one that finds your mouse cursor as I’m always losing it, and the always on top mode for when I don’t want a teams call to vanish while I do something else

I finally found some similar examples in the forums at board game geek and they had done just as you suggest. If I can closely match the thickness of the table with the battens, I could then use some twirly catch thingies (technical term) to make sure it doesn’t tip if someone leans on it.

Good idea about the waterproofing on the felt

“We pretended that hydrogen was going to be the right tech for years and now we’re well behind”

I’m on a pixel 8 with 256 similar to your other reply. Graphene is supporting back to early pixels and has weekly updates so I don’t think phone age makes a support difference, I just went with the newest reconditioned one I could afford.

I use signal, Lemmy (Thunder), NewPipe (for YouTube), Aegis auth, banking apps (but check forums on specific banks).

Losing Google Pay made me feel like a peasant for a while, I now have a case that carries cards and feel fine.

I switched from Vanadium to Iron Fox because I like the extensions, uBlock and Consent-O-Matic.

I used to enjoy the divorced birds sub over in the other place that this tweet spawned

Money can’t buy happiness but it sure takes the sting out of being poor

In the UK these still exist, called Homes of Multiple Occupation, or HMOs. The quality range is quite wide as you might expect.

Why is the third panel a different species?!

Thirded.

Also, is your username a cosmere reference?

I can definitely bend that pin back without breaking anything… this time

Such a good series, I could watch it for hours

It’s like that study that showed that the size of men’s pecs are of interest to other men, women don’t really look at them as indicators of attractiveness

#notallwomen sweeping generalisation etc etc

I’m in a really odd position, in that I’ve always been a futurist and massive tech fan. I thought that I would be signing up for any AI tooling as soon as it appeared, chip in my head, bionic eye, the whole nine singularity yards.

What I’ve found instead is a disgust with the concept, the way it’s been implemented, the big tech arseholes at the top of the money grabbing companies that have driven it all to it’s current omnipresent position.

I want my AI, under my control and with my best interests at heart doing helpful things for me at my behest and control. It’s what I was promised in all those sci fi books, not this commercial pap.

Nice rack

My mum told be the other day she logged onto a new bank, gave it a 12 character password then couldn’t get back in after. When she got through to their customer services they said that it was an 8 character password limit (!), but it just never said on the register screen.

I use Ironfox and have never found cause for complaint. I’m on GrapheneOS which shipped with vanadium but I wanted the adblock and consent-o-matic addins so switched.

People named Natasha…
