And to top it off, some apps will not let you use them at all with Developer Options enabled, though if OP’s insurance app is as bad as most I’ve seen, it’ll be too shitty to detect it.

For all the shortcomings of AI, and specially of Google’s Gemini model, its YouTube integration is really good for this, even more so on Android where you can set it as your default assistant and ask a question about the video you’re currently watching without having to switch apps.

Asking for a bullet point list, it gave me this:

  • Nondestructive editing
  • Dynamic guides or smart guides
  • CMYK support
  • Outline text
  • Multi-layer features and layer sets

I sense lots of people creating accounts with gibberish@gibberish emails just to download GoodLock lol

Seems like he not only deleted the Tweet but also protected his whole account… Very weird…

Basalt Deltas are the worst Nether biome.
When my portal spawned me right into one I did a 180 and made another portal

???
Consoles get unlocked sooner or later.
There’s already exploits circulating for the PS5. People already have game rips running. You’re gonna tell me that’s “Withered technology” ?

LiveLM ,

twilight state of not having fun and not being productive.

Stop putting me on blast, man

LiveLM ,

Much like the 20th edition DualShock 4 💀

LiveLM ,

lol, they’re never passing up the opportunity of selling you a iphone and ipad

I mean, it’s better than them releasing a Sims 5 and making people buy their hundreds of DLCs all over again, no?

LiveLM ,

Holy shit! This is the first one of these things I’ve seen with SATA slots

[rant] I want computers to become personal again

There was a golden age when computers were something you owned, not like before when they were big machines your employer or university would give out access to, nor like after when they went to the cloud, you bought what was essentially a thin client and every software became a service....

LiveLM ,

but is 199 days older than wikipedia

Oooh, the celebs started showing up on Lemmy!

LiveLM ,

what else could they give us?

AI!!!

^^/s

LiveLM ,

Pro-tip: Whenever you receive a call/text/email from “your bank” saying something is wrong, don’t interact!

Open their app/website or call them yourself to verify.

LiveLM ,

Note to self: scream uncontrollably when picking up the phone

LiveLM ,

And I sincerely hope most of their consumers see it as a ‘Too little, too late’ act.

Man I really miss the design language of the S8/S9

LiveLM ,

You avoid buying them precisely because of this.

LiveLM ,

otherwise it goes in the landfill

Ah, well in that case, fair enough.
I’ve done my fair share of ridiculousness to keep free crappy hardware running.
I will say, try running Alpine Linux on a container.

I’ve managed to extract some usefulness out of a borderline e-waste Android tablet running some flavor of Jelly Bean, so outdated you couldn’t connect to most websites due to bad TLS certs, by running a Alpine Container on it.
Alpine was the only distro I found that could run up-to-date software on such a ancient version of the Linux kernel, everything else failed to work at all.

LiveLM ,

How fun, this should go on a ‘Best of the Fediverse’ type post or something.

LiveLM ,

Without a shred of doubt.
Fuck the Play Integrity API.

LiveLM ,

Such a fantastic movie, I need to watch it again

I didn’t get it either til I came across a Galaxy Fold demo unit at the mall.
It’s light, the expanded screen gives you lots of extra screen real estate without feeling too big or unwieldy, and when folded up you get a normal aspect ratio, at a thickness that’s comparable to other phones.

I never really felt like a tablet would be useful for me, filling the “gap” between a laptop and a phone with essentially a ‘bigger phone’ I’d have to charge and carry always seemed silly: I’d rather just keep using my phone instead.
But when you merge both devices into one, it works. It really is a ‘bigger phone’, with the benefit of being able to choose when you want to use the extra screen real estate without having to swap devices.

As someone who often tries to juggle multiple tasks on a phone*, I want one.
Shame they’re so expensive where I live. Looking at the used market, even the folds multiple generations behind are still too expensive.

*Side note: Stock Android’s split screen implementation is shit.
The floating windows Xiaomi and other OEMs have is light-years ahead, Google should be ashamed.

LiveLM ,

Yup.
Only thing that managed to turn me off from this project more than the web3 crap was his involvement.

LiveLM ,

since apparently they were dead-set on a live-action format from the very beginning.

The live-action fairy has these Hollywood execs in a trance.
To this day I don’t understand what made Disney swap all their lovable animated characters for photorealistic-lion.fbx and make a Lion King “”“live-action”“”

Your money, your time, and if you’re tired to death of the cunt, your patience

LiveLM ,

0% fixing the multitude of crippling crashes and bugs that plague the software making it unusable for daily computing.

You say this in the comments of a blogpost where they are precisely doing that

LiveLM ,

Wdym??? Are you not excited for Corporate Soullessness: The Movie???

LiveLM ,

Hope they support Portrait mode for the perfect commuter time killer

LiveLM ,

Best thing I did was change my shell prompt so I can easily tell when it isn’t my machine

LiveLM ,

Correct!
I put a little Home icon on mine using NerdFonts.
If you are using ZSH or Fish you can do much more

LiveLM ,

This seems like such a useless feature, I really wonder how they can justify wasting engineer hours like this

Full text of the post by Asahi Lina (@lina):

I regretfully completely understand Wedson’s frustrations.

A subset of C kernel developers just seem determined to make the lives of the Rust maintainers as difficult as possible. They don’t see Rust as having value and would rather it just goes away.

When I tried to upstream the DRM abstractions last year, that all was blocked on basic support for the concept of a “Device” in Rust. Even just a stub wrapper for struct device would be enough.

That simple concept only recently finally got merged, over one year later.

When I wrote the DRM scheduler abstractions, I ran into many memory safety issues caused by bad design of the underlying C code. The lifetime requirements were undocumented and boiled down to “design your driver like amdgpu to make it work, or else”.

My driver is not like amdgpu, it fundamentally can’t work the same way. When I tried to upstream minor fixes to the C code to make the behavior more robust and the lifetime requirements sensible, the maintainer blocked it and said I should just do “what other drivers do”.

Even when I pointed out that other C drivers also triggered the same bugs because the API is just bad and unintuitive and there are many secret hidden lifetime requirements, he wouldn’t budge.

One C driver works, so Rust drivers must work the same way.

Making the Rust bindings safe would have required duplicating much of the functionality of the C code just to track things to uphold the lifetime requirements. It made no sense. It would have been easier to just rewrite the whole thing in Rust (I might end up doing that).

To this day, bugs in the DRM scheduler have been the only causes of kernel panics triggered via my Apple GPU driver in production.

The design of that component is just bad. But because I come from the Rust world, the maintainer didn’t want to listen to my suggestions.

If it takes a whole year to get a concept as simple as a trivial “device” wrapper upstreamed (not any device model functionality, literally just an object wrapping a struct device so we can pass it around) then how is Rust for Linux ever going to take off?

Rust works. I’m pretty sure I’m the only person ever to single handedly write a complex GPU kernel driver that has never had a memory safety kernel panic bug (itself) in production, running on thousands of users’ systems for 1.5 years now.

Because I wrote it in Rust.

But I get the feeling that some Linux kernel maintainers just don’t care about future code quality, or about stability or security any more. They just want to keep their C code and wish us Rust folks would go away. And that’s really sad… and isn’t helping make Linux better.

Backstabbing your fellow coworkers over a chatbot has got to be one of the most pathetic things I’ve read recently

How can Apps constantly Auto Start themselves in the background and what can you do about it? (lemmy.world)

This stuff drives me so mad. I recently have noticed higher than usual over-night drain on my phone and decided to investigate a bit. So I connected my phone to my machine, closed out all the apps waited a few seconds and ran adb shell top with a few parameters to see what is actually running....

LiveLM ,

And people wonder why I root?

It’s really maddening having to root just to get a say on what is happening on your device, isn’t it?

Anyway, what app do you use to control the broadcast receivers?

LiveLM ,

All Android updates have been feeling like this lately.
Just bringing back stuff that shouldn’t even have been removed in the first place

LiveLM ,

Guitar Hero/Rockband!

LiveLM ,

Goofy.
How do you even enter recovery on that? Shake during boot?

LiveLM ,

So no, he didn’t figure out a good use for NFTs, he just scammed people

LiveLM ,

Correct. The same old “viRtUaL LAnD” shtick.

LiveLM ,

Obligatory shoutout to Molly White.
She does a fantastic job in reporting about this, from launching a website to track the crypto industry spending on politics to catching Coinbase red-handed and reporting them.

LiveLM ,

Dummy HDMI plug would be an option but if I had to spend money I’d rather just get a steam deck.

but a dummy plug is considerably cheaper than a Deck…

LiveLM ,

You don’t get it bro, Nintendo decimated half of their net worth pulling off this miracle!!! ^^^/ ^^^s

They lambasted Microsoft in their marketing materials but when others do it to them it’s no fair? lol

Looks like someone softened their language after the disaster, eh?

Java uses double ram.

Let’s be honest: I only use Java for Minecraft. So I only debugged with it. But all version, server or client, all launchers. All of them use double (or more) RAM. In the game the correctly allocated amount is used, but on my system double or more is allocated. Thus my other apps don’t get enough memory, causing crashes,...

LiveLM ,

I’m sorry but I think that’s just the way Java Edition goes mate, lol.
You see a modpack that recommends 6GB allocated and you think “oh, I’m fine, I have 16”, next thing you know you’re almost going OOM.

I have recently upgraded to 32GB solely because of ‘All The Mods 9’

LiveLM ,

The ISPs? doing something nice?? for the customers???
Shit, I must have slipped into the wrong timeline or something

LiveLM , (edited )

This looks super neat but I don’t really like the idea of sending my shell history to a third party, nor can I host my own server right now.
Wish it was peer-to-peer like Syncthing
