“Some say”

I think they’re using the ancient-aliens narration style.

All of these kinds of photos are doctored because the raw data isn’t as interesting.

IrritableOcelot ,

I mostly really dont like the use of “depicts” here. Depicts means is a representation of, which is just wrong and feels a little too close to creationist. “Resembles” would be better.

BlackEco , to asklemmy in How to reinstall PC and Phone?
@BlackEco@lemmy.blackeco.com avatar

The advice given to you for reinstalling Windows is sound and should get rid of any software. Just make sure to backup any valuable data before!

As for your phone, is it an iPhone or Android?

Colorfulhipp OP ,

MagicOS 7.1 (honor)

bazsy ,

As an Android flavour it should be safe after uninstalling all apps associated with the university. Did any of them need a “device owner” permission? That’s the only way to be more persistent on Android without root access.

Colorfulhipp OP ,

I don’t remember… it was a few years ago. What’s the safest thing, factory resetting? I did that…

BlackEco ,
@BlackEco@lemmy.blackeco.com avatar

A factory reset should be enough.

bazsy ,

That’s more than enough. You can’t do any more.

ICastFist ,
@ICastFist@programming.dev avatar

As the others said, a factory reset will suffice. If you’re really paranoid, you can check whether your phone has a custom rom you can install. XDA Developers is the best forum to look for that.

Colorfulhipp OP ,

Thank you! this is interesting 🧡

Colorfulhipp OP ,

ok my phone (Honor 90 Lite) doesn’t support custom roms apparently and I am really paranoid. what can i do?

And sad too, I was really considering that :( It would have been a new world to me

ICastFist ,
@ICastFist@programming.dev avatar

Damn shame. Well, I’d try to sell it or trade for a phone that you can install a custom rom, like LineageOS, they have a handy list of devices that have first class support for it.

Tinks , to asklemmy in It's Sunday night, how do you beat the Sunday Night Blues?

My husband and I don’t watch TV together a lot, but Sunday nights are the one night a week we set aside for it. I often find myself looking forward to Sunday evenings when we get to catch up on our favorite shows and hang out. It’s also typically the only night of the week I eat ice cream, so it’s an extra treat.

I’m usually busy enjoying my Sunday evenings and don’t even think about the fact that the weekend is ending.

return2ozma OP ,
@return2ozma@lemmy.world avatar

Which shows are you both currently watching? It’s usually my movie & popcorn at home night.

Tinks ,

We just finished Prodigy, and are in the middle of Dr Who. Soon we’ll start up House of the Dragon 😊

Markmus , to android in Buying a Pixel 7 Pro, install Custom ROM or stay on default?

LineageOS, LibeageOS+Microg and GrapheneOS would be good Custom roms.

It really depends on your use case.

massive_bereavement ,

LibeageOS

For a second, I thought there was a LineageOS fork named "LiberaceOS" and now I'm sad there's none...

Markmus ,

Sorry for my misspelling. 😊

Don't be, I've done worse.

@owenfromcanada@lemmy.world avatar

I’ve been using LineageOS on my Pixel 7, and it’s been great. As much or as little Google stuff as you want, plus more direct control. Updates are easy, overall would recommend.

You don’t, so appreciate the time you’ll have hair. Because once it’s truly gone, you’ll look back on this day and cry.

Thank you butthole spiders! 🕷️🕷️🕷️

CanadaPlus ,

I’d just like to say, as an actually bald person, I think it’s okay. It suits me, it’s low-maintenance, and it’s nice in hot weather.

dharmacurious , to showerthoughts in There should be a semicolon punctuation for exclamation and question marks.

¿Perhaps something like this: 1000010473?

olafurp , (edited )

Out of all the additions to punctuation I’ve seen this is the one I find myself needing most often. Interrobangs are easily written as “?!” and even most other ones can be quick fixed with storytelling like “said lovingly”, “said with authority” and whatnot.

But “Is that the best, or is it just what we have?” is an absolutely horrible thing to write punctuation for when you mean it as two connected questions like “Is that the best? Or is it just what we have?”

It should obviously be replaced with a question comma. There are so many cases where you also have the question in the middle of the sentence such as “Is that okay (question comma) because I don’t think so…”

dharmacurious ,

I’ve thought the same thing many times. I love interrobang (not least of which for it’s kickass name), but the same sentiment can be expressed in other ways. Dialogue can convey the others, but if you want to recreate the way humans actually speak English, you need a mid sentence punctuation, like a comma, that can express questioning. Even in speech, we change our intonation to be higher when questioning, and we do that sometimes in the middle of a sentence. It’s just not conveyable perfectly with our current set of symbols.

HEXN3T OP ,
@HEXN3T@lemmy.blahaj.zone avatar

Exactly this. If you know what a semicolon and question mark/exclamation point’s purpose is, then you know how this punctuation works. The best tool is that which requires no manual at all. Occam’s Razor, or something along those lines.

dharmacurious ,

¡It’s immediately, perfectly understandable! :k

ICastFist , to pcgaming in Which game made you realize PC was superior platform to Console (or/and viceversa)?
@ICastFist@programming.dev avatar

To me, strategy games, mainly the real time ones. Command and Conquer, Age of Empires, Warcraft, Rise of Nations. Not only that, a large number of games had online multiplayer (which I never played back then because dial up), with every player on their own machine and screen!? HOLY SHIT!!!

Oh, even better than any console for the longest time, a significant number of PC games could be SAVED ANYWHERE AT ANY TIME.

Then there was emulation, where even old '95 computers could easily run the majority of SNES/Mega Drive (Genesis) games and back.

@chemical_cutthroat@lemmy.world avatar

If you attach so much of your personality and self-worth on your hair, this is probably for the best. Time to do some inner-reflection and figure out something a bit more meaningful to tether yourself to.

Due to unusually high tempetures I started having problems with the skin on my head. So, to avoid problems. I shaved it clean and it will remain that way until the skin in treated.

I would bet that this isn’t the last time that you get unusually hot temperatures. Between this problem possibly returning and male pattern baldness, you’ll probably face another time when you’re cutting your hair short.

That being said, adapt! Experiment with different facial hair styles, find a cool new hat (but be normal - don’t get something awful like a fedora) or sunglasses. Just because your hair has temporarily changed, it doesn’t mean that you’re a different person

There is a Seinfeld episode about this.

“YOU’RE BALD!” 🗣️

dirtySourdough , to nostupidquestions in Why are weather apps so bad at telling you the current weather?

Weather prediction at point locations is extremely challenging to get right because we simply can’t observe and make predictions for every single square inch of the earth. Many weather models are run on grids with boxes about the size of a few kilometers at the smallest scale, which means that any physical process in the atmosphere that is the size of that box or smaller won’t be represented well by the model.

Specifically on your point about clouds passing over your location, cloud and precipitation formation is even more challenging. Clouds and precipitation form due to atmospheric processes ranging from hundreds of kilometers all the way down to micrometers, which practically means the weather models are making an educated guess (albeit a very good one that is informed by scientific research) about when and where clouds will form. And when a model does predict a cloud, it will cover an entire grid box.

Finally, I saw you made a comment about how machine learning should improve forecasts, and in fact it does! But the weather community is still working on data driven models (as opposed to models that solve physical atmospheric equations), and most of them are run by private companies so their output is not free. As these data driven models get better, it may be possible that they will be able to make predictions at scales less than a kilometer.

TacoEvent OP ,

This is a really thoughtful and educational answer. I learned a lot from this. Thank you!

Fleppensteijn , to nostupidquestions in What are some things you can do to maintain your teeth when you don't have health insurance and can't afford dental care?
@Fleppensteijn@feddit.nl avatar

My yearly dental works always cost a fortune, but my teeth are great now, since:

  • I got an electric brush and floss sticks;
  • I now drink coffee without sugar (you’ll get used to it pretty quickly);
  • I almost completely stopped drinking sugary drinks (mostly bubbly water now, boycotting evil companies and being poor help).
Atelopus-zeteki ,
@Atelopus-zeteki@kbin.run avatar

Point one is key! I will add to it, floss of any sort is great. And for my mouth 'interdental brushes' do just a little bit more, so the combination has become a key part of my dental routine.

I didn’t want to make the conversation about this by mentioning it in the post but it was definitely one of the things on my mind.
