If only they knew they could use “Threads” ad-free.

I’m a “discord admin” too! Nuts!

And this was how I learned that Video Station is no longer supported by Synology. If you want the updates, you’ll have to uninstall it.

☝🏽

Perhaps not an actual reclassification since, until now, all two letter TLDs have been exclusively for countries. But for the right price, I imagine convincing them to maintain the two character TLD… for “posterity” … and… “backwards compatibility”…

coughs, clears throat, and pushes 💰 across the table

…would make sense.

😏

Corporations with loads of money will ensure that this domain will simply get reclassified.

May it be so.

I second.

It’s terrible how companies like this can do anything they want with impunity.

This tool seemed so beneficial.

It would be a huge undertaking, but a Fitness and Health tracker / aggregator that could replace Google Fit and the likes.

I really can’t bear how Google, Apple, Samsung, and all these big companies are the primary holders of our most intimate information. I’ve put some measures in place to limit who gets what, but it would be a huge boon to be the sole maintainer of my own info.

The problem is that the various apps and devices which report data won’t immediately support syncing with a FOSS upstart…

The app I use for grabbing my weight and BMI can only sync with a few other apps. The app I use for calorie and diet tracking can likewise only sync with a few apps. They happen to have Google fit in common, so I use that as an intermediary to transfer weight to the calorie/diet app. All my steps, exercise, and sleep stay in Zepp, separate from them all.

It sure would be nice to have one service/application to rule them all and a secure method of storing one’s own personal information without having to give it to the tech companies. Sure, use one of the many cloud services but encrypt all the data so that they can’t steal it. Yadda yadda.

One can dream.

If this article is even moderately accurate, then this is hard to digest. I didn’t realize that Russian electronic warfare was so advanced and capable. It seems to be having a significant impact on Ukraine’s efforts and bodes very poorly for them. The article didn’t address how they can counter Russian EW capabilities, if at all. 😖

Yet something else to disable in Windows. I’m losing track of each thing at this point.

Makes unfortunate sense. I was also hoping somebody figured out how to liberate it, but I imagined it might be highly tied to the Google app.

• ChatGPT 3.5 isn’t bad.
• Copilot is… undecided.
• Gemini I think I like the best in the realm of free AI, but I need to use it in a separate browser (Firefox nightly) and would prefer an app or even a PWA.

Anyway, I felt confident this was the case but people surprise me with how they can manage freeing apps and/or providing separate frontends altogether.

No worries.

And there really isn’t a whole lot to elaborate on. I simply want to be able to attach a telephoto lens to my OnePlus 11.

I know third party solutions sometimes require a special case, which I’m open to, but the only popular one I found didn’t have a case for this model phone.

Any recommendations on “most phones” variant?

So weird that so much is integrated into a web browser.

I logged on to my father’s computer today to fix a few things for him and was immediately overwhelmed with all the Windows bloat. This includes copilot and… so… much… more… 😖

Company computing assets are managed. One normally doesn’t get to override IT policy without business justification.

I’ve been using LibreOffice for a number of years without issue. Literally takes care of all my word processing and spreadsheet needs. I don’t miss MS Office at all, which I use daily at work.
