only real gamers could use this all day and forget to use it once.

Amazing journaling/personal information managment software. I love that once you understand how it works, you can journal however you like and it “maps” out how your connect concepts. Not exaggerating when I say it helped me piece a lot of concepts and personal themes together

Many of my peers and I (1995-1999 ish) have to fight against the urge to be apathetic despite having supposedly progressive views. Personally, a lot of these “issues” should be no brainers (gun control please). If it’s not mandatory and nothing seems to change, why bother?

This sticker legitimately made my morning and would definitely get me and any friends I shared with it out to vote for the “memes” if we lived in Michigan. It’s hilarious

I don’t really have a stake in this race because it’s quite a dilemma (personally I like the idea of Graphene supporting more devices with varying security promises) but I’d imagine between buying a 2nd hand Pixel or exclusively using Google services, Google would rather people do the latter.

They simply make more out of data gathering and GrapheneOS sidessteps that, so as a user I’m leaning towards the former so I can more readily degoogle myself.

Spiritually, I’m with you brother but Veronica is clearly a brunette here. I appreciate sticking with aesthetics even if I disagree.

They’re both absolutely adorable here

Might just be me but I think this looks cool/cute af especially with the little plush

exactly, not everyone has time to stop everything and watch a random 20 minute video from a thread based on essentially “trust me bro”

especially with a vague and borderline clickbait title. To prove a point, I’m going to watch it at some point and I can almost guarantee i can either summarise it or provide a synopsis.

There was a time when the Google apps just worked, the applications were optimised for UX. Maybe I’ve just only noticed it now but the directions (and assistant in general) aren’t as useful, reliable, and filled with sponsored stuff.

what do you use for navigation and how does it compare?

May be a minor bug but was a big fix for me! Thank you MV-GH and everyone involved for making this happening in a speedy manner :)

legit and respect, gotta take all the advantages you can get.

From the article.

The creators expect the wooden material will burn up completely when the device re-enters the atmosphere—potentially providing a way to avoid the generation of metal particles when a retired satellite returns to Earth.

These metal particles could have a negative impact on the environment and telecommunications, the developers said as they announced the satellite’s completion on Tuesday.

be warned, it’ll give you unearned optimism about how responsible you are to revisit the tabs you saved but will never see the light of day again.

For the sake of the meme, I will out myself and say that I’ve been confusing Napoleon and Neapolitan for all my life. I feel seen.

After the following years, I’ve quietly taken the whole “this is when we diverged into the darkest timeline” schtick an iota more seriously. It’s been a strange 8 years.

then what’s stopping people from just going/staying on reddit?

Content isn’t an issue, the internet is filled with AI generators and bots. Meaningful content and engaged communities are what we should be encouraging.

Reposts and directly referencing reddit is counter to that imo but I appreciate the intent.

*Should clarify i have no problem with reposts but diaagreed we have a “content problem” but more an activitg issue/opportunity to make a unique fediverse-lemmy internet culture and copy-pasting reddit is not the way to go.

It is wild that this post about a harmless abbreviation that refers to cringey (but endearing to me) narrow slice of early-mid 2000s internet culture got this reaction out of you. Something that could be ignored or looked up.

Be it Lemmy or the communities you stumble upon, but perhaps some introspection about how you respond and interact with the internet could use a revisit.

going to use your title in lieu of “I use arch btw”

Honestly it’s a necessity at times. Though I found certain activities elicit the same “thoughtlessness” that I get when I meditatw such as motorcycling. No time to think about anything else but the road and the bike, making it ironically one of the most relaxing activities I do.

but because Kevin Conroy, I got it anyways.

Corporate greed ruins yet another thing I love.

I admire the late Conroy as much as the next guy but my brother in christ this mindset is exactly what fuels this level of quality by directly justifying it via your purchase.

You can’t solely blame these corporation if you continue to behave in ways that to support and incentivises them to utilise these strategies.

Made me have a healthier relationship with social media, my smartphone usage, and overall thinking. I almost exclusively used RiF and curated it enough that I could readily get lost in it for hours in threads and/or following drama.

I knew what I liked about reddit was the mods, the 3rd party apps, and the communities, and the company behind the website was the least appealing ineffectual part of the experience. They were slow in every sense of the word and consistently made out-of-touch decisions.

Lemmy was a great transition point for me. At first I was trying to treat it as a clone. Instead, I found a place (and the fediverse in general) where there wasn’t a mass amount of resources spent to keeping me engaged - it’s just content of the day, no strings attached.

I found a space that was indifferent to the amount of time I spent on it, passionate communities that were more responsive and literate, and just felt more respected as a person.
