@pwnicholson@lemmy.world avatar

Pixel phones have been too big for me for a while. They won’t fit in my pockets comfortably and I don’t want to have to stretch to reach the top of the screen. Come out with something 5.75" tall or less and I’ll re-engage.

root ,

Yes. My Zenfone 8 is “small” but I want it even more compact. My old Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact is the perfect size!

What are you using now?

Galaxy S22 with Nova launcher getting rid of the Samsung UI and making it note pixel-like.

@helenslunch@feddit.nl avatar

That’s not too big?

pwnicholson ,
@pwnicholson@lemmy.world avatar

It’s 5.75" tall, so no. It’s as big as I want to go. I’d love something a bit smaller to be sure

Zerfallen ,

It’s the smallest option, so doesn’t really matter.

Player2 ,

You might be interested in finding an alternative to Nova, they got aquired a couple years ago

You can still lock down privacy stuff to a fair degree. I’m keeping an eye on it

Yes, I am still on my pixel 5 for that reason but I really need a new one

pwnicholson ,
@pwnicholson@lemmy.world avatar

I held on to mine for so long, but after they stopped getting updates, I bailed since the S22 wasn’t massively larger.

tja ,
@tja@sh.itjust.works avatar

Yes, nur then there is so much Samsung stuff on it. Maybe I’ll have to do it like you and modify it then

pwnicholson ,
@pwnicholson@lemmy.world avatar

It’s pretty easy to strip most of it off. It’s definitely an adjustment, but I got used to it (the remaining things I couldn’t change) pretty quickly

@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

Suggestion: We do with the Bitcoin emoji what people did with the eggplant emoji. The B stands for butthole. So now we can do [eggplant emoji] [bitcoin emoji].

I’m sure the TOTALLY NOT HOMOPHOBIC tech bros will love it.

AroAceNerd ,

We must do this if it happens.

But seriously that depends on many factors. Nobody would order more. First action would be to get rid of the stuff by lowering prices or throwing it away. Or if it is too late they would declare bankruptcy.

poVoq , to selfhosted in Code-Server but with Codium?

Maybe this? theia-ide.org

I saw that in the reddit thread I like codium have been using it for ages and have a bunch of plugins I like.

poVoq ,
@poVoq@slrpnk.net avatar

Afaik it uses a very similar codebase and plugins can be easily ported or might even work out of the box.

HK65 ,

Anything that works with VSCodium works with Theia, Theia just has an optional deeper plugin system so you can completely customize it.

jake_jake_jake_ , to selfhosted in Why Prometheus + Grafana over other monitoring options?

one of the reasons you see these as separate is because of the amount of modularity you get with grafana, you don’t always use it with prometheus, sometimes with ELK sometimes Influx and Telegraf. If you intend to set it up outside of the “typical” you start to really appreciate one piece doing one thing, and doing it well.

0x0 , to selfhosted in Why Prometheus + Grafana over other monitoring options?

'Cos the bros don’t deem Icinga cool enough.

TankieTanuki , to linux in So I installed Arch Linux... Is this it?

Linux distros differ only in their package managers, really.

And init systems, and C libraries, and the few that use something other than GNU.

thepreciousboar , (edited ) to asklemmy in Is it wrong to report email as spam when you previously opted out and they either add a new subscription/newsletter, etc.?

Just a remainder that auto subscribing to a newsletter is illegal in an entire continent now (thanks GDPR). So no, reporting as spam something that is literally spam is not wrong.

Also Canada, and I think in California.

chevy9294 , to linux in So I installed Arch Linux... Is this it?

I’m using Arch because you start with nothing and you can make any system you want. I have disk encryption, btrfs as a filesystem, secure boot with my own custom keys, I’m running self-build kernel, I’m using apparmor and I can use any program from AUR, etc. Thats my personality. Things that you can’t see but are important to me.

On other distros some of these things would be very hard to do. Especially without Arch Wiki.

snrkl , to android in Are you excited about the upcoming Pixel 9, or have you given up on Google hardware?

They run GrapheneOS Wonderfully…

Bitrot , to linux in So I installed Arch Linux... Is this it?

Outside of the meme, the only people who make it their personality are generally younger and less experienced users who feel extremely empowered and proud by doing anything useful on the command line. Not like those users on Ubuntu (which they just switched from) who install stuff from a store like losers, nuh uh.

Before Arch you had the same type of people on Gentoo feeling superior because of use flags and watching hours of compiler output, after switching from Mandrake.

Zozano ,
@Zozano@lemy.lol avatar

It’s nice that you think I’ve got enough self control to wait for later in the day.

The moment the confrontation ends I’ll be writing my totally unbiased account of events on r/AITA so I can get immediate vindication.

Zozano ,
@Zozano@lemy.lol avatar

Well, I wouldn’t be as snarky about it because getting heated IRL is inconvenient.

But I’ve got no problem telling someone to fuck off if they imply something I said is offensive when it is obviously not conveyed in any context where offence would be justified.

SentientFishbowl OP ,

Thanks for pointing this out.

booty ,
@booty@hexbear.net avatar

Of course! Thanks for being cool. It always sucks to learn a term you’ve been using has a shitty meaning you didn’t intend, and some people react to that realization quite poorly as we can see below lol

lemmyvore ,

Ricing comes from car customization. It’s only racist if you make it racist.

It’s like saying “bad driver”, it’s racist if you say “all Asians are bad drivers” or mysoginist if you say “all women are bad drivers” but “bad driver” by itself is none of that.

booty ,
@booty@hexbear.net avatar

It comes from racist car customization slang, yes.

tiredofsametab , to android in Are you excited about the upcoming Pixel 9, or have you given up on Google hardware?

Neither? I am more wary after the launch of 6 and the issues, but I also say 'neither' because I'm simply not in the market for a new device.

BillDaCatt , to android in Are you excited about the upcoming Pixel 9, or have you given up on Google hardware?

I tend to get a new phone every other year. I bought a phone last year so I will probably be excited to see the Pixel 10 next year!

pipes , to piracy in audiobook syncing
@pipes@sh.itjust.works avatar

Those big files like .m4b (b stands for book) should have chapters within it, if you open them with mpv on your pc you should be able to see them on the time bar. On Android I’ve been using Voice, it’s really well polished and shows a big chapter name so I usually remember where I was if I switch devices, even if not to the exact minute.

I figured out how to encode to a single m4b in fre:ac so I only use Voice now (or my ipod, which was the reason why I learned how to use fre:ac).

I know you asked for syncing (one day I’ll try adding the audiobook plugin to my jellyfin), but this works for me.

If you prefer a folder of files, you can use fre:ac or many other encoders/tools to split them up.

Blxter OP ,
@Blxter@lemmy.zip avatar

For my current book there is about no metadata in the files that was first thing I checked.

pipes ,
@pipes@sh.itjust.works avatar

Oh sorry, can’t think of an easy solution then. I’ve seen that audiobookshelf can find metadata for you, that could be doable. They also support ebooks but if I understood correctly from their docs they don’t get synced to the audio position, just to themselves.

A promising but still in beta software is Storyteller, under very active development here. It works by creating a ‘rich’ epub that contains the audio synced line by line, which you can then read/listen to with just one app.

There’s also older software with a similar approach like syncabook but at a glance it seems less usable than Storyteller.
