  • Ignoring the internet bill itself, how many paid online services do you have?

    Jump

  • Domain names and webhosting, the Proton suite, Ente (photos), and Qobuz (music). Basically all the stuff that lets me get away from companies like Google and have some modicum of privacy.

  • Resolutions

  • Success!

  • MODS ARE SLEEPING, POST CYCLING WINE

  • Am I doing it right?

  • Houston, we have a problem!

  • Homestar Runner is millennial as fuck. And given the upvote/downvote ratios of each of these, I'd say mine was far better received.

    Absurd humor related to lemmy's shenanigans of the week beating an antiquated stereotype of women is actually pretty encouraging for me. OP can take their boomer shit back to Facebook if they don't like downvotes.

  • Anyone else?

  • But maybe add some text underneath: "Dogs are okay though"

  • People should stop policing others for what bathroom they use and use the right gender/pronouns.

    Jump

  • Sounds like you're arguing semantics. If you don't have gendered pronouns in your language, then yeah I wouldn't expect there to be any issues. In languages with gendered pronouns, each person gets to decide which ones apply to them. It's not that complicated.

  • Do you not expect people to honor your pronouns? Even among cis folks, when someone uses the wrong pronouns, it's perfectly fine to correct them (and as a cis man who once had long hair, it came up a fair bit before I grew a beard).

    It would be quite rude to continue using the wrong pronouns after someone corrected you. The only difference with queer folks is that their presentation doesn't always make pronouns obvious.

  • Smarties are like the chocolate version of jellybeans

    Jump

  • Compared to M&Ms, Smarties have a thicker candy layer. The chocolate is a bit better, but personally I prefer the candy/chocolate ratio in M&Ms.

  • The chalky things are called "Rockets" in Canada.

  • It's 2. When you wear a tie, you don't tie it up right under your chin, you tie it at the base of your neck.

  • NAS decision paralysis

    Jump

  • I picked up an odroid HC4 a while ago, and it's been great. Only has two slots, though. I have it set up to do periodic backups to a cloud storage service, so I feel pretty good about it overall.

  • Is there a universal remote I can get that does not require stupid app sign up?

    Jump

  • I have a One for All remote that has a learning function, no connectivity required. Works great. Not sure if their other remotes are the same, but the small one is great for me.

  • One of the only cybertrucks I've ever seen

  • Avocado toast time

  • "In that case, can I come over to your place? I've got some homemade bread."

  • Stephen Miller says undocumented immigrants ‘had no due process entering the country’ and don’t deserve it in removal

    Jump

  • And how does one determine whether someone entered with due process?

    Due process is a right that is either offered to all or none. There is no in-between.

  • How do I get a app's APK? One that I downloaded at Play Store? I wanna put it on archive.org.

    Jump

  • Google has been pushing developers toward using app bundles instead of APKs. The actual APK you get is specific to your hardware.

    The easiest way to get an APK is to ask the developer. If that's not an option, you can consult a search engine—there are plenty of sites that distribute them (though there's no way of verifying their integrity).

    Do you have permission to upload the APK? What app is it?

  • Whats the worst baby name?

    Jump

  • I mean, even a technical label can be a name.

    But maybe that makes the worst name something like Raisin Toast or something.

  • Supertramp - Breakfast in America

    Jump

  • Great album
