Butlerian jihad incoming?

The Simpsons is still being made?

I’m on a pixel 8 with 256 similar to your other reply. Graphene is supporting back to early pixels and has weekly updates so I don’t think phone age makes a support difference, I just went with the newest reconditioned one I could afford.

I use signal, Lemmy (Thunder), NewPipe (for YouTube), Aegis auth, banking apps (but check forums on specific banks).

Losing Google Pay made me feel like a peasant for a while, I now have a case that carries cards and feel fine.

I switched from Vanadium to Iron Fox because I like the extensions, uBlock and Consent-O-Matic.

Fuck’s sake, it had just started to properly settle down and get good

Such a good series, I could watch it for hours

I’m in a really odd position, in that I’ve always been a futurist and massive tech fan. I thought that I would be signing up for any AI tooling as soon as it appeared, chip in my head, bionic eye, the whole nine singularity yards.

What I’ve found instead is a disgust with the concept, the way it’s been implemented, the big tech arseholes at the top of the money grabbing companies that have driven it all to it’s current omnipresent position.

I want my AI, under my control and with my best interests at heart doing helpful things for me at my behest and control. It’s what I was promised in all those sci fi books, not this commercial pap.

Nice rack

I use Ironfox and have never found cause for complaint. I’m on GrapheneOS which shipped with vanadium but I wanted the adblock and consent-o-matic addins so switched.

I never saw the movie in the first place and I’m ambivalent about watching the extra hour when seeing it

As in, it was a different actor playing Kovacs in the second series? Wouldn’t it have been more weird for him to have found an exactly similar sleeve on a totally unrelated world?

Of course it should have felt like exactly the same person in a different skin - if that’s not true blame the acting and directing!

Seven ospreys diving in tight formation

Interesting, I didn’t know that

I usually look at subscription numbers on the communities to decide which one to post to, I imagine that over time there will be aggregations, splitting, recombinations and bitter factional war…

Which one are you using? I was looking at ironfox

I still find it interesting that the Vanadium browser in Grapheneos is Chromium based, with no possibility of extensions. I know this is for security reasons but it feels odd to still use chrome on my phone and Firefox everywhere else.

I switched to thunder from connect recently and had the same question. As it happened I was in GitHub for something else and looked it up, it’s a known issue because instances don’t have picture height as part of their meta information so the only way to find out how big an image is would be to load it. Something to do with the way thunder is designed precludes this.

Next Lemmy version gets around this issue, once the instances start switching to it.

I thought ages ago about a passive technology to use solar power to capture carbon dioxide and turn it into solid form.

I realised that I was trying to invent trees.

Thanks, I didn’t think about this and was about to report something which, lo-and-behold, has a bug report already.

Amazing, thanks!

Ah, thank you, not being able to recreate it was driving me slightly loopy
