Oh, heard that. I’m on 128 on my phone too and they were all disabled

For everyone trying to find the setting— On my android phone, there’s a setting called “data collection”. Mine were already all off, so idk who it affects

Idk what 128 is on a phone, but my galaxy s21 had everything still off. Guess I’ll have to keep an eye on it

I work night shifts. My manager one time called me around 2pm to ask me something menial and waking me up (as I was still sleeping for my next shift at 7pm).

So naturally, I called him at 2AM when I was at work… because I had an “urgent” question about a work policy lol. He got the picture, and that shit never happened again

Uhh… your mom never made it past puberty?

Got 'em!!! Fucking burn dude!

Round 2 …

But you made a post less <2 days ago, and commented over 50 times just this past week

So, did you just VERY recently start “hardly looking” or something? Or are you just trolling/full of shit bologna?. No hard feelings or anything, but damn; low effort. Be better

So you’re somewhere between 18 and 58 than

Kinda relevant XKCD

If a bomb is what they’re worried about, I don’t think those soldiers would be standing so close as they “checked” the bodies for a suicide vest

Most people wouldn’t know the difference when there’s a bucket attached

What RSS feeds (preferably without needing an account like NY Times) would people like to recommend? I recently set up Feeder on my phone and have been curating it

And is there a way to bypass soft-paywalls with an app like feeder?

Went to check out the “Mr and Mrs Smith” series on Prime (with Donald Glover), and was notified that there would be ads now unless I upgraded. I almost never watch anything on Prime, but figured “why not, I already have it”… and then immediately closed it when I saw that message. Switched back over to Stremio, cause why the fuck would I watch ads when I already pay for the service? Gotta convince the wife to cancel Prime, but it’s next on the chopping block. Only ones left will be youtube music (family still uses it) and Debrid (which will stay for as long as it’s good). Netflix, Hulu, Disney, ESPN, HBO… all of them gone

Currently my life. About 3 months now, no plans to upgrade anytime soon. Sucks though

Just got 4 pairs with prescription lenses for ~$80. I use eyebuydirect, but I’m sure there’s other vendors like it

I began learning on a cheap acoustic that made it incredibly hard to play, but I never knew any better.

Many years later, I was given a nicer acoustic and I realized how much easier it was to play. Suddenly the F chord wasn’t such a monster to hold down.

I feel like the cheap acoustic absolutely stunted my learning, and possibly caused me to pick up bad habits. But I still have it cause it was my first guitar and kinda like the sound of it. But holy shit, it’s still hard for me to play it

That’s a fucking great bot!

I’ve always loved using Linux, but sometimes I just need things to work; so that whatever I’m doing is quick/painless. But as much as I’ve switched back and forth, I keep getting pulled more into Linux, the more I learn about my (personal) technical problems

Sure, I can fix it on windows… but the more I delve into Linux, the more I begin to understand the underlying principles of all of it. And for a lot of things; the more I learn about Linux, the more I’m able to navigate across multiple OS’s. Learning a little Linux has taught me a metric shit-ton about how computers “speak”, and that knowledge has crossed over to a lot of different applications.

I still don’t use Linux full-time. But I’m definitely starting to prefer it the more I learn. I hate fighting against locked-out bullshit on windows, when I “just need things to work”. But I still like being spoon-fed sometimes, when I don’t have time/patience… but I now much prefer taking the time to make my computer work for me. I’ve learned a shit ton about computers because of Linux
