I’m starting to see not as many newer mobiles in the Lineage OS list as I used to. The US is a lost cause with companies not allowing their bootloader to be unlocked, but even the Chinese companies like OPPO, Vivo, OnePlus etc don’t seem to have their recent devices on the Lineage OS supported list. Am I imagining this, or...

We live in an age of misinformation, but it’s not always on purpose. Sometimes we hear things or come to conclusions that end up becoming fact in our heads. Other times it can be malicious with intent to deceive or subvert. Sometimes it’s in the middle....

I’m mostly thinking about insurance here. I’ve been told conflicting information. I live in Florida....

I’ve had an organ donor card in my wallet for as long as I can remember and I’ve always made it very clear to my loved ones that I want all my organs to be used when I die....

Here’s the thing. I’m a mod for a small-time community for a niche interest, !castles I’m also on Mastodon, and was before my Reddit exodus. I follow #castles as well as a few other related topics on Matsodon, so I get quality toots, such as this: mastodon.scot/, that I wish I could just crosspost over to my community....

I was trying to sleep last night when it occurred to me that the name Titanius Anglesmith is 40% titanium.

I saw a post on Reddit, didn’t know if it was posted here yet (I’m using Thunder, and idk if any other client has the ability to search in communities), so decided to do so…...

Always heard about org mode but was intimidated by emacs when I could barely manage vi/vim (sorry guys). Installed a plugin for org-mode for Sublime Text today and… shit, why didn’t I try this sooner?...

Even if they are using fake cigarettes that smoke can’t be healthy to inhale, right?

I’m talking about mainly third person narrators in fiction, like for example, “if you have felt/heard/seen X then…”. What is it called?

As much as I like radarr, lidarr has some problems radarr doesn’t. Some bands nowadays do not release albums and directly release singles on YouTube or Spotify, so the albums organization doesn’t work that well anymore....

Just like mail in electronic form is called email, virtual worlds chould be called escapes.

For the most part it’s borderline child porn or stable diffusion spam. There should be an option to opt out of content from specific instances on account level.

I don’t really understand why people do it. Not like “they’re doing it because they are depressed and feel bad”, I had depression myself but never had a call to injure myself. I hate pain, and doing something painful to myself while I’m already feeling bad doesn’t really sound appealing. So I don’t quite get what...

Star Trek’s level of medical care is far more advanced than today’s. As Beckett says in LD, “Doc will wave a light over it.” Yet, in Star Trek people aren’t shown doing hobbies and pastimes that are much different from what’s done now. Still, I wonder about differences in a society where people know they won’t be...

Something stunning when travelling to the US is the number of cities called some something Ville, Nashville, Jacksonville and all the small ville you’ll see when going at a random place on google maps, let alone a state called “vert mont” which can’t sounds more french....

I am currently trying to keep track of my config files in a repo to be able to get the configa back together easily if/when I change distro, but I am not sure if that’s the best way or if I should be using some tool to help me since I some programs keep preferences in other directories other then $HOME (at least I think so)....

I guess this has been said before but I want to reiterate it here....

Many an innocent bystander passing through here, asking “what is this sublem about?” I think this question deserves to be escalated to the highest level. What are the chinesium turnbuckles that tenuously hold this rusty, fraying cable to the next cable? What holds up the saggy clothesline that is NCD? What keeps us from...

There have been reports of YouTubers I watch getting sick after eating food in third world countries. However, these countries are also home to a large number of people who do not get sick from eating the same food. I think this suggests that the locals may have developed stronger immune systems. What do you think?

I’m so confused. My sister was telling me about how Taylor swift is re recording her old music because scooter Braun owns her old music and she wants to have sole ownership over it....

So from my understanding, I can block an instance which prevents it from showing in my feed....

As title says....
