I don't personally use it but pixelfed is an Instagram type of site. It's part of the fediverse as well.

Lol I got home from work and opened Lemmy.world. page loaded fine but I couldn't upvote and the comments wouldn't load. Tried again after restarting firefox and same thing. Switched to Lemdro.id and continued like it wasn't happening.

Yeah I'm 100% not giving that cup back and am collecting as many different ones as I can.

Admittedly I'll probably bring them home and never use them and throw them away in a few years because omg I have way to many cups I can't handle this anymore. But still.

"leaks" about Google blocking ad blockers got me to switch to Firefox in October last year. Was worth the risk. Took the time to also leave googles password manager and switch to bitwarden as well.

Pixel 7 pro 256gb model checking in. I don't take a bunch of pictures and videos but I also hardly ever delete anything and I take pictures and videos in the highest possible quality I can. My phone has 100gb of storage left between apps and media.

I feel attacked.

Only matters if your account is tied to anything personal. I use lemmy as anonymous as possible. IDC if anyone sees how I vote or what I say on here because I'm not tieing any personal info to it. Can do the same on Reddit but it feels more necessary here for some reason.

Currently using liftoff and its been great and done everything I want it to do but will be jumping ship the second Sync for lemmy comes out. [email protected]

Side not, holy shit when you put an "!" the start typing a sub while on desktop it starts to autopopulate then you can pick what you want and it just puts in the formatting. Idk if that is instance specific or something lemmy itself just does but it's awesome.

The FOSS and privacy preachiness really gets to me sometimes. I will admit it has gotten me to think about taking steps towards degoogling my life and things which admittedly is probably a pretty good idea but God sometimes it feels like if you aren't using Linux and graphene OS and browsing everything from behind atleast 3 vpns you might as well not even breath because you don't protect yourself correctly.

Sadly that second but requires the other person to care enough to make an account and not just text you when they need the password 😂

I drilled holes in the ceiling of my rented house to run cable through the attic and down into separate rooms. Never heard anything. Don't need a big hole so it's easy to patch when they come through for nail holes and such which are expected.

As a new Linux convert nerd with a hot girlfriend it does happen.

I mean. How would I go about proving that. I'm currently just imagining the look on her face when I tell her we need to take a picture with my lemmy username in it so randoms on the internet believe I have a hot girlfriend. lol We go to the beach this weekend though. soooooo I'll leave it up to you to remind me to do this lol

As someone who bought lifetime ultra on sync for reddit the day he announced the shut down it's a price worth paying. Used the app for almost 10 years and only paid 5 bucks. He wasn't sure what was going to happen going forward so I gave what I could in return for that service.

The problem with hardware authenticators is compatibility across devices. One job I worked at a while back used Yubikeys, which were great... if you were logging in from your work PC. If you need to access your work email from your phone, that wasn't really an option without getting an exception made to your account, which required IT doing a manual reconfig of your account. And obviously they were reluctant to do that, because that just opened up more security risks that the Yubikeys were meant to prevent.

I mean that sounds more like a money problem to me. There all multiple different types of yubi keys that work for different types of USB and lightning as well as NFC if you want that. The only reason you wouldn't be able to use a yubikey on your phone is because you weren't supplied with a yubi key that works with phones and only the cheapest option with a regular USB A plug.

Tap to pay isn't there to stop you from interacting with the terminal though? I mean yeah it was handy during the pandemic to now have to touch things many other people touch but that wasn't the main idea behind tap to pay.

As someone who recently fell in love with EndeavorOS I don't wanna fall down the cat girl pipeline....

Previously was an audible subscriber for years. Paused it sometimes when I didn't know what to use credits on. A couple months ago I got an email that my credits would be expiring in a couple months if I didn't use them... Used all 5 that day to buy the rest of a series I was slowly getting through, canceled my sub and figured out how to host it myself on audiobookshelf. Haven't used audible since.

My personal truck doesn't have Android auto or Apple car play (I thought it was something I could get when I bought it but turns out I was a year early, whoops) and my work truck has it. I 100% will not be buying any car that doesn't have it as a feature. It's not something I need all the time because for most drives just using Bluetooth is perfectly fine but if I want to use the GPS for anything Android auto and car play are just so much better than using your phone for that. Everything is kinda frivolous to though.

Yeah I would never click that 😂 I've seen ads hidden in links like that with random text on the page. I'm good on all that.
