“Don’t forget to like and subscribe and hype and hit that bell and leave a comment down below–inhale—it really helps this channel out.”

Internet? You mean the WiFi /s

All the while it gets further and further from the requirements. So you open five more conversations, give them the same prompt, and try pick which one is least wrong.

All the while realising you did this to save time but at this point coding from scratch would have been faster.

SmartTube is so good. You get it for no ads; you keep it for all the dope features. It’s like YT way back in the day with more advanced shit for anyone that loves tinkering with all the fiddly bits.

For the US, I think it would be so slow at catching up to more developed standards of gun control that it would be generational and not a matter of years. It’s not so much the laws that are currently in place that’s the issue, it’s the lack of regulation that’s created such an ingrained culture that’s going to take a long time to evolve. So, technology like this would stil definitely be utilised in the future.

My thoughts, anyway.

And honestly, I didn’t even realise there was another school shooting in the US. Internationally, I guess it just gets covered less and less because it’s not really “news” anymore.

I always figure it’s someone whose life has become so pathetic, they bitterly downvote every single comment to try feel some control. And as a result, they feel like the Phantom of the Socials. Alone, but the true master of the place.

“Everyone must wonder, ‘Who keeps downvoting us?’ It is I! The true Master of Lemmy and- No, mother!.. Yes, mother!.. I tried but nobody wants to talk to me!.. I don’t want to!.. Yeah, she’s cute!.. I don’t want you to do that!.. Mother put the phone down!”

Jokes on them, I think lowly of people with exercise bikes. I’m on a level of pretentious they can’t reach.

And with Trump’s stellar success rate with new ventures and all.

I don’t like the lack of customisability. I’ve been using Vivaldi for a long time now and nothing comes close to how customisable and feature-packed it is. Everything can be set up and tweaked exactly how I want. My version of Vivaldi would look, feel, and act entirely different to someone else’s, because it does what I want, not the other way around.

Unfortunately, it’s Chromium-based. But the developers have been working on its native ad blocker in case extensions are impacted. They’re quite a brilliant bunch, so I’m hoping it all goes smooth. I really don’t want to have to go back to Firefox if I can help it. I can’t stand UX for the masses and these guys get it.

Ah, so the bad kind of teasing.

Yeah, I have a smart TV and would appreciate some faster processing in there. Or if I can flash a simplified ROM, but dunno if those exist. As long as I get control over what it does, I’d take it. Can just Velcro it on the back of the TV so it’s invisible.

It’s also anything but the most efficient route for doing so. Like Abe Simpson toured the building before returning back to the hat stand and it the door.

But then Apple would have to drop it’s prices by 40% so people would keep buying.

Are you aware of Google’s track record of products that have success? The graveyard would make Stalin blush.

“Redditor uses service that no one really uses yet, resulting in competing service that everyone defaults to using being better.”

Yeah, but it is on the internet.

“refused”. Okay, headline.

It’s bad business to not be honest and trustworthy. If a hacker group is known to always give back the data and not strike twice, they are obviously much more likely to get paid. No one’s paying someone known for ripping off. We see this in company ransomwware all the time. They are friendly, helpful in explaining the breech, and professional. If they were the opposite, they’d be broke.

I’m enjoying solar on my Australian roof.

Don’t understand why the fuck we’re investing so poorly in solar farms and everyone just complains about price of electricity. We’re the sun cancer capital of the world; when life gives you sun, clear skies, and a thinned ozone layer, make electricity!

It’s not uncommon where I live, but certainly starts conversations of people comparing their worst storms. My own favourite was the damage done to a massive carlot near the docks and airport that stored new cars coming into the country to freight out around the state. Thousands of cars, no cover. They all went on sale massively discounted as hail damaged but the downside being people couldn’t get additional non-compulsary insurance until repaired. So new car, but probably barely making a saving after fixing it all. Or, just leave it and o ly have compulsory insurance, which only covers damage you do to public property with your car and not your car or other people’s.
