I’m more concerned with the fact that they’re not supporting the steam workshop and using their own mod platform

I don’t have a webcam. And I didn’t have a functioning microphone for several years until recently.

I mean, it’s not usual to find more modern books at a thrift store. Yeah a lot of them are old, but newer ones are there.

Even among the old ones there are some that are sought after, like Betty Crocker’s Cooky Book. Best snickerdoodles of my life.

It’s not a lunar eclipse, it’s an annular solar eclipse.

Not as exciting as a regular solar eclipse. The moon is in a farther position of its orbit to not be able to fully cover the sun.

Most pawn shops deal primarily with guns, tools, and jewelry. You’ll also find all kinds of electronics and collectibles, some places may have furniture too.

RCS wasn’t originally supposed to run on data, it only does now because carriers didn’t want to support it natively.

The other day I launched an old game and got met with an error, something about directX9 and missing a redistributable file or something. Decided not to fuck with it.

Yesterday I launched it again to take a closer look at the error message to see if I could fix it. No error message, game booted without issues.

My confusion.

Samsung and Google are just now getting around to supporting it

Hey now, I’ve been rocking RCS for three years. The only reason it took so long to begin with is because Google was trying to get service providers to implement it themselves. Google finally said fuck it and started doing it themselves iMessage style and then providers started playing along.

To be fair, this is for setting the duration of the snooze button for your alarms, not a timer. Most people would set it once and never touch it again. Anyone snoozing for more than 30 minutes is a psycho that hates sleeping anyway.

There are newer AI tools that can do text accurately. Usually it’s with text provided in the prompt though, so it’s arguably not AI generated, just AI placed.

The unreadable AI text you’re familiar with is done without the AI really knowing what text is, and they’re just making something that looks vaguely like it. It’s the same way they normally handle any kind of object or shape. Newer tools are built specifically for text, so it actually is readable and makes sense.

I got 12/20 and most of the ones I got wrong are the ones I was second guessing myself on.

That sounds like roommates with extra sex- I mean steps.

I think it’s important for people to learn how to manage/customize notifications whether it be on the OS level or through each app individually.

I keep a lot of things as silent notifications, so they pop up but don’t grab my attention. They’ll be there when I look at my phone. I think texts/calls are the only thing that makes noise on my phone at all.

I’d argue that some people are not tech savvy enough to figure that out. Whereas Lemmy is actually less complicated.

Release the kraken

The upfront cost and CO² emissions from getting these things into space must be justified first. Rocket launches are definitely not green. The emissions from launching this kind of program must not exceed to emissions of competing infrastructure.

The article mentions eliminating the need of batteries for solar energy storage, but which creates more emissions? Building batteries or rocket launching solar panels?

Right now Relay for Reddit is working on a subscription model and has been granted a extension period. It’s currently free to use. Not sure if I’ll bother paying for it to stay on Reddit, but for now I can still use Reddit without the official app.

Memmy or mlem on iOS. Try those.

I’m still curious as to what is going to happen on the 1st and moving forward. I haven’t seen much news about whether or not moderation focused apps/bots will still work despite Reddit’s promises.

My bet is that effective moderation is going to drop significantly. Spam is going to increase to take advantage and trolls (whether to usual kind or as a form of protest) will run rampant. The user experience is going to suffer for the users that currently “don’t care”. And then Reddit will die.

Interesting article. I’m still pretty new to the concept off federation but I’ll keep an eye out for these kinds of takeovers in the future.
