Nurse_Robot , to android in Android app dependency?

Buying the Google Pixel and getting upset that it needs the Google App to fully function seems silly

sgibson5150 OP , (edited )

I haven’t had the opportunity to test on another brand phone but atm I’m assuming from the developer statement that this will be true of Google Translate on all Android phones. Thanks for your contribution, though.

Edit: If the Google app is disabled on the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip4, the same behavior occurs.

merde ,

many people buy oogle Pixel to use it with GrapheneOS. It doesn’t sound silly at all

@Rustmilian@lemmy.world avatar

You have to switch the ROM completely for that, this seems to be a stock pixel thing.

You and I have wildly different definitions of the word “many” lol

You shut up about that right now. it’s a national secret. What do you think we do with those abandoned wells?

We had to tighten up security after the great maple syrup heist.

milicent_bystandr ,

Adjusted for inflation, the heist was the most valuable in Canadian history until the 2023 Toronto Pearson International Airport heist

Did they steal an airport in 2023?

Also, does that qualify them to be called the Sticky Bandits? More professional than Marv and Harry at any rate.

Isn’t it amazing how the coming together of minds from across the world can bring fresh and new vocabulary to the world?

RadicalEagle ,

It’s one of the things I love most about being alive. When I was a kid I loved reading the names and flavor text of Duel Masters cards. They always seemed pulled from the most weirdest corners of people’s minds lol

My favorites were always the lovecraftian horrors that had really mundane descriptions.

I’m not a huge fan of the flat button aesthetic. Give me the 3D-esque buttons and the translucent Aero window frames of Windows Vista.

Our GPUs, even the integrated ones, are powerful enough for it now.

I am scared of the Plasma 6 upgrade. I currently have oxygen theme with a bunch of stuff like lamp minimizing effect, fall apart effect when closing windows, wobbly windows when moving or resizing them, animated rainbow mouse pointer (XP style). Also the loading mouse icon when opening programs is the programs icon jumping up and down.
I am not sure all of it will work on Plasma 6.

zeroblood ,

I can verify that lamp minimizing, and wobbly windows work on plasma 6 (Arch btw). The only things that stopped working for me were a couple widgets that I found out haven’t been updated in like 8 years.

TimewornTraveler , to lemmyshitpost in Expertise

Well, sometimes there’s another step missing just before the Bullshit: “Use the small, narrow findings to inform a greater narrative beyond the data’s scope”

Wogi ,

I love how all the comments in this thread are like “yeah but it is bullshit tho!”

TimewornTraveler ,

Well I’d like to think I’m not! I wanted to point to an actually dubious thing where we might call into question a study, so we could still respect the work being done while validating the importance of standards in research.

You’re right though that it’s disappointing how many responses seem to address only the flaws in modern science and not acknowledge the strength of the scientific process. I think a big part of it does come down to how scientific findings are interpreted and reported to the public, and even further an all-too-human misunderstanding of epistemic limitations. Our cultures should spend more time educating people about the limits of knowledge and fact, how they are constrained by other flawed systems, etc. That would be a half-decent start, if we could only fix the entire reporting problem too.

Thank you for pointing this out.

TankovayaDiviziya , to lemmyshitpost in A rose by any other name

I don’t know about you, but when I hear “oligarchs”, I always get a nebulous image of faceless, rich and powerful crowd who are into sex cults like Eyes Wide Shut. I kid about the last bit but I am serious about the other descriptors

I think the reason we don’t immediately think of oligarch when we see Zuckerberg, Gates or Musk is because we see them on individual basis. Whereas “oligarch” usually refers to a faceless collective of politically influential, rich folks.

GladiusB ,
@GladiusB@lemmy.world avatar

I think of two things. The goofy ass oligarch commercial from a few years ago and Jeremy Irons when he is monologuing about how the %1 always hides. And it’s true. The ones that really pull the strings are behind the curtain.

Excrubulent ,
@Excrubulent@slrpnk.net avatar

It’s more than that, it’s that we have a very sophisticated media machine that manufactures consent for these ghouls every single day, and it never takes a break.

You think of them as just a bunch of guys, just silly beans who happened to get rich because they and their friends own the media corporations that build the narrative that we believe. We’ve got these very respectable newsreaders who give them nothing but softballs, and frame every story as favourably as possible for them.

Also I lost count of how many times some piece that was critical of US oligarchs and corporations was deleted from the reddit front page. I’m fairly certain they were either taking money for this service or just looking after their friends. Maybe a PR manager working for whoever was being criticised contacted the reddit office and asked politely and that’s all it took.

Tja ,

Because none of those pictured here are oligarchs, just the only billionaires your average teenager knows.

If you made the meme with the Koch brother(s), Paul Novelly, Harlan Crow or Michael Bloomberg it would be much closer to the truth, but not something that would get upvotes because they aren’t constantly on TV (by design).

Not really the buttplug type. However, I grew up in a college town where half the campus buildings were brutalist, so it still speaks to me.

RIP??

Track_Shovel OP ,

Good luck, honestly.

$22.50 is a lot for a burger, but I’ve had some burgers that price that are life changing.

Shenanigore ,

Mine are 17 but have a literal 3/4 lb (smoked) patty and 2 strips of real good old fashioned bacon, two fried texas garlic toasts for a “bun”, the real fancy french mustard and my house sauce, the best pickles ever, 5 onion rings but no side. I can do this because I’m a bar in the middle of nowhere, not in a major city with staff and massive expenses.

FatTony ,

But do you serve it on a plate?

Shenanigore ,

yes. You can search facebook for the Lucky Loon Saloon of Tompkins, Saskatchewan for more details, there’s pictures of it, on a plate.

SilverFlame ,

That’s a shame, I prefer my burgers served on a snow shovel

Shenanigore ,

I mean I have a snow shovel, and ten percent bleach solution. Always willing to accommodate.

psmgx ,

Tompkins, Saskatchewan

Ohhhh you’re near Medicine Hat and the highway. That kinda makes sense now.

Shenanigore ,

That’s right. Stop in for a burger, I’m open Tuesday to Sunday 1130 am to late. Tuesdays are beer n a burger 20 bucks, Thursdays 11 dollar wings (30+ flavours).

Track_Shovel OP ,

Best of luck!

That sounds like a great burger.

redfox ,

but no side

You included all the sides on the burger!

What’s the calorie count on that!?

As I’m asking this nonsense question, I’m thinking of the punch burger commercial from the parks and rec show where they say who cares, put it in your body!

Shenanigore ,

I honestly have no idea. Lots?

Shenanigore ,

Ok apparently roughly 850 calories for the hamburger, 175 for the toast, 150 for the onion rings, 10 calories for the mustard, 100 calories for the special sauce going by the mayo base for 3 tbsps, 200 for the cheese and roughly 150 for the bacon. So…1700 calories at a minimum.

redfox ,

LOL, that’s awesome. Almost an entire days worth of calories. Sounds delicious. You printing the calories on the menu?

This is the Parks and Rec Ponch burger this reminds me of.“Put it in your body or you’re a nerd!”

There’s a place called Bub’s burgers where they do a 1lbs burger challenge. They’re actually pretty good too. Not sure about how it compares nationally.

Shenanigore ,

No, not on the menu. I don’t actually eat like this myself, I’m a big dude, used to work the rigs, trades, cowboy, etcetera. I couldn’t get through half one of these monstrosities i make if I even try. Probably how I stayed reasonably thin when I was a trucker. Been cooking long enough to know what tastes good, I had owned this bar half a year before I even tried the burgers I was making people. When i do make myself hamburger, it’s like a quarter pound patty by itself and i just fork n knife it with some spicy sauce, or maybe with gravy.

redfox ,

Ha, thanks. Now I don’t feel as dumb for chucking the bread.

Shenanigore ,

I serve people what are essentially “treats”. You can’t eat like this regularly. I’m well aware of the secrets of French Cuisine, which are sugar, butter, bacon fat and cream.
