Kolanaki , 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?
@Kolanaki@yiffit.net avatar

I wanna know why it corrects anything at all when I turned autocorrect off. Most of what it “corrects” was already correct, and the correction changed it to a different spelling or to a word that makes no sense in context. Like it always corrects “its” to “it’s” even when correctly using the possessive form. It kept correcting it just trying to write that last sentence.

10_0 , to books in What's everyone reading lately? 08/06/2024)

Restarted Reincarnated as a Familiar Vol 1 (LN) by d.s. Craig, because I forgot what I had read, its a good read for the weeb side of me. Young adult books are just easy and therefore fin to read, so I’m just reading at my own pace. (About 1 page per month.)

Skellymax , to retrogaming in Finally got this after two months of waiting! A bit uncomfortable and heats up easily, but it's still great to have a retro handheld of my own.

Yup. Cats can get pretty warm. The rumble feature is pretty nifty, but don’t grip too hard or they’ll hurt your fingers.

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

But if you live in a state that is overwhelmingly one party, your states votes are going to go to that candidate. I live in California, and there not much chance that any California delegates are going to go to Trump. True, the districts didn’t matter for the EC votes, but that doesn’t mean everyone’s vote counts the same.

Also worth mentioning that the number of votes each state gets is based on very outdated logic.

It would be different if there were no EC and it was decided based on the national popular vote.

Also worth mentioning that the number of votes each state gets is based on very outdated logic.

The logic is basically sound but we borked the shit out of the system with the Re-Apportionment Act of 1929.

That needs to repealed / replaced / updated with something like the Wyoming Rule.

Reyali OP ,

True, some states are too extreme to ever flip. Then other states like Texas or North Carolina are perceived as firmly in one camp, but they might not be if everyone actually voted.

I absolutely love PSO. Still play Blue Burst on Ephinea from time to time.

I want to thank my best friend for introducing it to me all those years ago on GameCube.

It’s too bad PSO2 turned into what looks like your typical shitty MMO. It was really fun back in 2012-ish on the SEA servers with the fan translation patch.

Paid

  • Photo Editor for image editing with layers and the ability to import custom fonts.
  • PSPlay as a PS Remote Play alternative that doesn’t sucks and works with more than the official game controller.

Free

  • Breezy Weather for a material-themed weather app with multiple data sources.
  • Aegis for a good-looking 2FA app.
  • Material Files for a native-looking file manager with SFTP support (including key auth).
  • Organic Maps for an offline map based on OpenStreetMaps.
  • Seal for a nice GUI-based interface for YT-DLP.

Good thing I have no interest in playing online with randos (or with anyone else at all, really) or paying through the nose for AAA games full of bugs, then!

Ruining men.

Increased ambient temperature correlates to a reduction in sperm motility. That’s right, real men care about keeping global temperatures from rising further. Only little betas insecure about their dick size want increased oil drilling and plastics production because it eventually drags the alpha men to their level.

ArcaneSlime , (edited ) to linux in Why you should (probably not) run Slackware

Praise “Bob!” For we have Slack…ware! I actually haven’t tried it yet because I’m a new user running fedora and Slackware still seems above my paygrade, but as an avowed SubGenius and linux user, it is my destiny to try. I have an old laptop to try it whenever it will bring me Slack, I’m saving this thread for information purposes, thank you. PRA’BOB

(For the uninitiated, the creator of Slackware is also a SubGenius and thus he created it in the name of “Bob.”)

StrawberryPigtails , to asklemmy in What web browser extensions would you highly recommend to others?

Reddit didn’t take off overnight either and was full of only technology posts for years.

Lemmy will get there in time, probably faster if they do paid subreddits.

And forums are sadly dead. Killed by FB groups imo.

This is breathtakingly dumb

If it’s causing damage to your property talk to the city - you might be able to cut back some of the root growth extending into your property depending on ordinances…

But, like, don’t be a vigilante asshole - also… have you tried talking to them about it?
