If you choose to pack a portable monitor+kb+dock combo, you can use your phone as a computer instead with Dex or similar. Seems more practical to me in 2025.

Might upgrade to a Pixel 8 from my current Pixel 6. I want to get security updates until at least the end of this administration.

I like lemmy more because it feels like I get more interaction when I post here. Smaller communities are just better for meaningful discussion.

Librewolf is privacy-hardened so it’s probably the best option. Brave is Chromium-based. Realistically though, all web browsers come with compromises, and internet anonymity is virtually impossible without unrealistic amounts of effort.

It’s pleasing to the eye but lacks the soul and passion of a real, human gooner who just wants to make people cum

The new manifest v3 version is actually not that bad, though not nearly as good as normal ublock.

For those saying they didn’t know about this, it’s because they never actually released anything. They got shut down unexpectedly before they finished any projects. Allegedly there are still some in-development games based on Netflix properties that will still be released on their gaming service, and the service itself will stay up. It’s just the studio itself that was shut down.

Not really AAA at all, no.

I imagine it’s to pad runtime.

KDE bricked my install on my main desktop after updating to the latest LTS too. No idea how that happens. I’m on opensuse leap now.

Smart TVs are designed to surveil you, a media center PC can be used however you want. Flash Linux and run Jellyfin and torrent everything through a VPN, then nothing can track you.

Yep, it was my personal, password-protected network. Either someone reconnected it (unlikely, I live with my gf who doesn’t use the TV) or it just cached the password until it decided to spy on my again 🙃

I have definitely had to forget networks, then have them connect to that network weeks later at random, then having to forget the network again. Don’t know how that’s legal.

Do not connect your Smart TVs to network people, seriously. Just a bad idea. Use a media center PC or some other device that allows you to stream content, and make sure the TV itself is just a big monitor, nothing more.

Had a Galaxy S8 and loved it. Got a Pixel 6 and now the slow fingerprint sensor is the bane of my existence. Why did they put it on the front? Why is that the standard now? It sucks, it’s just slower and less ergonomic.

Steam has an effective monopoly on open, marketplace-style launchers. EGS is their only real competitor and everyone hates it. GOG is years behind the curve and Amazon’s launcher barely exists. At this point in time, Steam is hardly considered third-party since it’s so ubiquitous.

Their concern is that the scissors could be used as a weapon to hijack planes. I’m not entirely sure how founded that concern is but people in Japan seem relatively fine with the whole situation so whatever.

As a Neon user I resent the implication but also understand that it is mostly true

Obviously the Catholic women on reddit see dating as a transaction lmao, fucking classic.
