enable the Do Not Disturb feature on your devices

I don’t really need to do this ☝️, because I’ve done this 👇.

and only grant notification permissions to essential apps

Never do I get notifications that I don’t want, unless I’ve installed some new app and haven’t fine-tuned its notification settings yet, after allowing notifications from it at all. 👍

Besides all that, I definitely agree that the FOSS lifestyle helps with a quiet digital existence. You only ever take part in information that you seek out on your own. Very nice.

Also not having installed addictive apps like Instagram or Facebook with algorithm-controlled content, really helps keep away scroll addiction.

Very good points. 👌

Ooh, well that’s wonderful. It’s like some grassroots thing. The inventors of the thing refuse to support it, but the people are adopting it on their own. ✊ I’m happy to hear these “news” (to me)! ❤️

I mean, it’s still insignificant enough that it won’t matter yet, right?

But that’s still good. It’s on the right path. Google needs to get their head out of their ass on this one. Still no sign of it years later though.

“Apple” supports it? Which apps? Not that I care much, I have zero Apple products or devices. 👍

Are we JPEG XL yet?

Wow, I just saw this literally two posts above this one.

Haven’t heard of JPEG XL pretty much since it died. And now twice in a few minutes.

Thank you, universe.

Completely off-topic: I really enjoy the way you express yourself. Do you write a lot? Your text is just very easily consumable, yet not dumbed-down.

And now to make lighter EVs that don’t wear on the road so much.

Ah yes, mongo and document databases, forgot about those. Yeah those could be a pain to get data from if there’s no structure. 😅

as long as it’s organized in some way

Right? Organized, structured, same thing, or? A database can’t have no structure, right? I don’t even know how one would create such a database.

Well that’s good… 😳

You can make an unstructured database? I thought the S in SQL stood for “structured”, that it was built into the language itself or something.

There’s a WHOM keyword in SQL?

I just ordered a Gan 3x3… I’m a beginner… Long way to go to beat this robot. 💀🙃

Jesus, man.

It’s definitely you.

Well, I’m not trying to sound like anything. I’m just telling you a fact, that I believe in such and such. I think you’ve been watching too many movies if you think that someone merely telling you they “believe in something” is a goddamn movie trope… Like, come on.

Maybe when reading the text you’re projecting your own version of what I’m saying with a bunch of intonation and body language and stuff that only exists in your head. But rest assured, I’m not acting all emotional and holding out my fist in the air when I say that I “believe in freedom and a right to truthful information”. I’m merely telling you, with a deadpan look.

All good? 👌

I’m 37. I’ve always hated superhero movies. More into horror and space/sci-fi.

Are we done here with you trying to berate me? You’re not showing your best colors here, you know. These ad hominems are giving me second-hand embarrassment.

Believing in the basic human right to freedom and truth is pathetic now?

Let me guess, “believing in something” is “gay” too, am I right?

Quit now before you embarrass yourself further. This is too much cringe.

🤨 I think we’re not getting through to each other…

It’s not about what they enjoy, it’s about what they deserve. People deserve the truth, whether they like it or not. That’s what I believe.
