@ninjaturtle@lemmy.today avatar

Without much context all I can suggest is PowerAmp for music player. It is a paid app.

Eternity for Lemmy.

Heliboard for a more private keyboard.

Newpipe for YouTube.

TheButtonJustSpins ,

Symfonium for music!

Edit: Very different experience than PowerAmp though. Just looked at screenshots. Looks cool af.

Seconding PowerAmp. Tons of features, something I loved about Spotify that PowerAmp has, you can queue songs and do things like "play next" so that it inserts songs into your queue.

You can also see what song is going to play next, though I still deeply desire a mobile version of the Winamp feature where you can see the entire list of how the songs are shuffled and everything that's coming up

A fair assessment. But it’s still better than a lot of games released since then. I’m not going to kick it out of my bed for eating crackers.

What did your neighbor say about it?

LordGimp OP ,

Neighbor said anything on my side of the property line is my problem. So I’m planning on salting my side of the plot. We have decorative gravel with planters and the shit tree keeps dropping sprouts in between our gravel.

Drusas ,

Your neighbor is legally correct, unless the roots are causing significant damage, in which case you can probably get them held liable for repair.

LordGimp OP ,

Which is why I want to salt MY property. I don’t want anything to grow back in that area. I’m sure the tree can do just fine on the other side of the fence.

TheAlbatross , to nostupidquestions in How much salt water to kill a tree?

Depending where you are, this could open a whole can of legal worms for you. I’d avoid addressing this issue like this and simply talk to your neighbor.

LordGimp OP ,

Did this. Neighbor was emphatic that anything on my side of the property line is my problem to deal with. That’s why I want the salt. The tree overhangs our back patio and drops seedlings everywhere in our decorative gravel. So I want to salt that area to prevent anything growing back and I’d like to mist everything hanging over our property with salt water until it dies. You got any particular tips on salinity for maximum plant toxicity?

Or … you could accept that nature is part of our life as a species and stop being an asshole over your “pRopErTy LinE”.

LordGimp OP ,

Nature is fine. I got my roses out front, the succulents in their planters, jade tree in it’s planter out back, more wildflowers in their planters, etc. Tore out the ivy out back a while ago because it was causing damage to neighbors fences, replaced it with the decorative gravel so I don’t have to weed as much. We even have some redwoods that shit on our yard from the communal area if it storms hard enough. Not an issue.

This invasive shit tree is an issue. It was planted 10+ years ago by the previous owners and ripped out once because they were moving. Some of the roots survived and now it’s back to a full ass tree and the current slumlord of a property owner refuses to pay anything towards maintainence even as it rips up patios and shits sticky sap everywhere. I want everything on my side of the line dead because nobody else gives a shit.

If the owner is truly neglectful you can talk to the city and potentially get the tree removed funded by a lein on their property. If your neighbor is uncooperative there are usually official channels to resolve this through.

If you go the vigilante route you might end up with a serious fine (also, it’s a dick move)

LordGimp OP ,

I don’t think the city can do anything about a condo on private property on unincorporated land. It’d have to be the HOA or county, and I don’t know how I’d even approach the county about it. The HOA is run by 90yo homebodies who don’t care about anything they don’t have to look at. We’ve made multiple complaints about their fences falling down and pulling our fences with them. No response. We bring up the concrete and we’re told it’s a landscaping problem, who ofc point us right back at the hoa.

nokturne213 , to asklemmy in Where do i post something that isn't a meme a news or a question?

It depends on what it is, I would start with a community that fits the content.

reddig33 , to youshouldknow in YSK most US states assign their electoral college votes by the state's popular vote

You should know the Electoral College is ridiculous and should be abolished.

Reyali OP ,

I don’t disagree, but it’s the system we have and I want to ensure people aren’t disenfranchising themselves in states that could swing the opposite way if everyone actually voted.

I’ve been gaming on Linux exclusively since 2016.

DXVK was an amazing improvement. Steam play makes everything so much easier. And the Steamdeck was a revelation.

I don’t like to play games with other people anyways so Anti-Cheat is no issue for me.

FinalRemix ,

Anticheat is just a sign that the devs are insecure about their game.

Anti-cheat is just a sign that this game is designed to be ruined for you by other players.

Drusas , to nostupidquestions in How much salt water to kill a tree?

Someone's never heard of tree law. If you do go this route, please update us when you get sued.

LordGimp OP ,

I have, which is why I want something that looks relatively innocuous. We live in condos, and the HOA has had arborists out to clean up communal trees and such. We paid them an extra $250 to trim everything up from our fence line and the crazy neighbor screamed we tried to kill her tree. Now I just want to kill the parts of her tree on my property.

sparky ,
@sparky@lemmy.federate.cc avatar

That’s not how it works man, you can’t poison just part of a tree. And it would be pretty suspicious if a healthy tree with no signs of drought or disease just dies.

LordGimp OP ,

That’d be fine, as I’m following their directions exactly. I was told “If it’s on your side of the fence, do whatever you want to it”. So I want to salt the ground on our side to kill any roots under our property and to stop saplings growing in our gravel.

Drusas ,

I hope you realize that you are the bad guy in this scenario.

You have the right to trim limbs that hang over your property, as long as it doesn't damage the health of the tree. That's it. You can't kill part of a tree, just like you can't kill part of a person or part of a cow or whatever else.

Your neighbor is not crazy for wanting the tree to remain healthy. Trees are a good thing for both the environment and for mental health and are important for providing shade in a warming world. Their leaf litter is also important for insects and birds.

Getting so worked up about some leaves that you want to kill somebody else's clearly beloved tree suggests that you are being unreasonable. Invest in a leaf blower or hire someone to deal with the leaves if it's such a big deal to you. Or, better yet, leave them so they can help the local environment.

LordGimp OP ,

It’s not beloved shit. I was there when the last tenant planted the tree. I was also there when they pulled their sapling and took it with them to the next house. This is an overgrown, untended tree that grew back from leftover roots and is causing problems for multiple units. The slumlord that now owns the property bought it on a bank foreclosure after the last owner died and has put ZERO money into maintaining the property. They had NOTHING to do with the tree. The tree is an invasive species in this state. There is no reason to keep the tree except to be an asshole.

Dave , to nostupidquestions in How much salt water to kill a tree?
@Dave@lemmy.nz avatar

I suggest you check local laws. Tree law is famous for judgements in the hundreds of thousands, so don’t go killing your neighbour’s tree without checking your local laws first.

Where I life, if your tree causes damage to your neighbour’s property then you are responsible for it. Your local laws may be similar, rather than getting yourself a massive financial bill you could instead try to get your neighbour to pay for the damage.

Since they are your neighbour, I’d suggest a conversation with them first about the damage, which they might not know about. Read up on who is liable before the conversation.

0x01 , to nostupidquestions in How much salt water to kill a tree?

Just collect your tears and pour them over the tree, plenty of salt coming out of you

GreatRam , to selfhosted in How do I determine if a CPU is better than another one?

Buy a used tiny/mini/micro from eBay. Best bang for buck and good efficiency. I got a Dell with a 9500T for $110.

Underrated comment.

Kelly , to nostupidquestions in Why is it that when I write on Googles keyboard on my phone and misspell something it has no idea what I am trying to write but if I Google the same word it knows instantly what the word is?

The google servers have access to a lot more resources than our puny little phones.

vk6flab ,
@vk6flab@lemmy.radio avatar

Whilst technically true, consider just how many CPU cycles Google wants to spend on your search query. In reality, as little as possible.

I’d be pretty comfortable in guestimating that the resources on your phone vastly exceed that.

Source: I write software for a living.

SzethFriendOfNimi ,

May have more resources but I suspect googles servers also have some fantastic caches of common misspelling based on what your locale is and what most people are searching for.

A lot of that derived from aggregate data of searches that were more likely to be engaged with or lead to click through.

That kind of data could be used on a phone if they wanted to download a large cache of it every so often but since it could be time and location dependent.

Search: Olzempik

  • Right now… Olympics.
  • A few months from now and you’re in Washington state. Maybe you want Olympus?
  • Recent searches for diabetes… Ozempic?

Some of that is just too hard to reasonable calculate and cache on a mobile device.

hoshikarakitaridia ,
@hoshikarakitaridia@lemmy.world avatar

I would add that it’s way more efficient because Google doesn’t have everyone using it mistyping all at once. So they can save up CPU cycles until they need them.
