why don’t you just take a vitamin for magnesium and other minerals, and just drink normal water?

just seems very strange, cost-prohibitive, and bad for the environment.

JINA App Drawer.

My most used app on my device.

Basically lets you swipe up from the home button to reveal a customized grid of apps + app search.

Makes it so:

  • I never have to go back to my home screen to launch a new app
  • I can use my entire home screen for widgets and to just look nice

it’s about the bad man’s bad product

this was inevitable.

while I admire the cause, putting such a slow SoC in it really lampoons its claim of being future proof.

And the lack of a headphone jack makes it a nonstarter for a lot of people who would normally be interested in it.

agree, no matter what communities you browse, you just get repeatedly hit over the head with the same 5 topics.

In retrospect, this now seems very obvious but thank you, this worked wonderfully.

applejacks OP ,
@applejacks@lemmy.world avatar

yea, that’s what I’ve been using so far, but the individual downloads + converting them has been a bit annoying, hence why I was looking for a way to eliminate a few steps from the workflow.

whew, thank you for bringing up elon musk.

I was worried I would see a thread without his name in it.

what kind of ads were these?

had not heard of this before.

great idea, go overboard and make him furious, surely this won’t have any bad ramifications for her.

I like big phones and I cannot lie (22000mah Tank) (www.unihertz.com)

Ok it’s 4G and Android 12, so a little bit behind the times, and weighs over a pound, but it has 65 watt fast charging and a built in 1200 lumen flashlight (I wonder if that doubles as a video light). I found out about it a few days ago and have been fascinated by it since then. The weight isn’t so bad if you consider that...

applejacks ,
@applejacks@lemmy.world avatar

ha, battery life is very important to me, but this is a bit much

would be nice if someone would do a more reasonable 8-10000mah

just regular google keep can do this

applejacks ,
@applejacks@lemmy.world avatar

well I don’t know what to tell you, it can easily do that lol

applejacks ,
@applejacks@lemmy.world avatar

nice, glad you got it.

Alternatively, you could use the text copy feature from google photos, and select the text from it, paste it into Keep as a list, and have it all digital.

it works very well with my sloppy handwriting, but that is in English.

In the first half of 2023, shoplifting reports were 16% higher than the first half of 2019. New York City saw a 44% increase in shoplifting complaints between 2021 and 2022. New York and Los Angeles saw the largest increases in shoplifting from 2019 to 2023, with more than 60% increases.

lol ok

you think they are just locking stuff up for fun?

And yet the comment I replied to was “They fixed a problem that wasn’t real”.

Incredibly scientific and thoroughly sourced lol.

how do you even use twitter?

I’m not actually using twitter, just never got into it, but now that I’m trying out mastodon, idk if I’m just too old now but I don’t… get it. I just can’t seem to engage with anyone, the UI seems confusing and counterintuitive, I don’t seem to have the context to get into this type of website, can someone tell me...

applejacks ,
@applejacks@lemmy.world avatar

it’s a pretty simple app, what are you having issues with?

applejacks ,
@applejacks@lemmy.world avatar

should probably at least give a search term so people can look it up.

applejacks ,
@applejacks@lemmy.world avatar

the most frustrating part is when I search for a result I know exists, and I know that Google knows it exists, but it floods me with pages and pages of things it thinks I “should” see instead.

this golf course talking point is weird, even looking at the issue as an environmentalist myself.

there are 2m acres golf courses in the US

the US is 2.43b acres in size.

Golf courses are 0.008% of US landmass.

Well beyond a rounding error, but for some reason this is some people’s #1 issue.

applejacks ,
@applejacks@lemmy.world avatar

it also doesn’t factor in how these irrelevant attacks alienate people who might consider joining their cause.

there are apparently over 25 million people in the US that play golf.

If, for no reason, you insult them and their hobby, you’ve lost a ton of potential allies.

Take this example I saw here a few days back:

lemmy.world/comment/4964970

A guy posts a picture of his motorcycle and some miserable sonofabitch comes in screaming at him:

Thanks for adding more pollution to our climate. Asshole.

Fuck that. Any person that intentionally pollutes the air should be publicly shamed and eviscerated.

yea, great job, guy…

Unusual advice:

I use Jina app drawer

play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mobeedo…

It allows you to swipe up from the home button and access a selected grid of apps, and quickly search for any installed apps.

Lets me keep my homescreen pristine, and only display art/widgets.

So it really doesn’t matter what my launcher is.

applejacks ,
@applejacks@lemmy.world avatar

are you using gestures?

I suspect that might cause a conflict.

I use the 3 button nav on my phone.

you could add a hotspot on the lower left and right sides.

Which Life Pro Tip disappointed you?

For me it was “buy high quality pillow” because you sleep for one thrid of a day etc. I needed a new pillow anyway so I came to the store and bought the best they had. And it was … ok. Like it’s a fine pillow but my sleeping haven’t improved really, it’s basically the same. So I was disapointed :(...

A good tip about 401k is to increase it by 1% every year, you’ll never notice the change and continue saving more and more.

The vanishing of the small high-end smartphone (www.smh.com.au)

Manufacturers don’t make displays under 6 inches available for purchase, with special cases (such as the iPhone Mini) being made under exclusive contracts. The best lead they have so far is to try to use displays designed for the front part of a foldable phone, but they’re yet to strike an agreement....

applejacks ,
@applejacks@lemmy.world avatar

the sad reality is many people will say they want a small phone like this, but then not buy it for some reason or another, then they sell less, and so companies abandon making them.

I am a very happy owner of a ZF10 too, lovely device.

applejacks ,
@applejacks@lemmy.world avatar

it’s not that you want to, but rather that the companies want to charge you $100 more for $5 of ROM.

applejacks ,
@applejacks@lemmy.world avatar

If you look at the S or iPhone series you’ll see that the larger versions sell far far more.

What can i do with 3d models as an everyday joe?

i recently found an ai that makes 3d models from text. ive been messing around with it a tiny bit but now i have a handful of 3d models that im not sure what to do with. the bad thing is i have like no skills and they are not the best looking either. i would 3d print them but i dont own a 3d printer because they are pricey....

applejacks ,
@applejacks@lemmy.world avatar

you can get an Ender 3 on sale for $100.

probably cheaper to invest in one rather than continuously pay for a service to print them off.

some libraries will 3D print stuff for very cheap though.

kind of like telling a heroin addict to just stop doing heroin.

applejacks ,
@applejacks@lemmy.world avatar

but you can’t add a bunch off apps.

applejacks ,
@applejacks@lemmy.world avatar

many dumphones have these functions.

calculator and GPS is not what most people think of from the phrase “a bunch of apps”

I’ve run into this before on archive.org, incredibly annoying.

I believe there are utilities that can capture and join together JPEGs into a PDF, but it seems they purposefully uploaded a very low res version to prevent that.

Hate to say, but I don’t see a way around it.

applejacks ,
@applejacks@lemmy.world avatar

check this out, autohotkey script that screenshots and flips pages:

autohotkey.com/…/58115-auto-screen-capture-script…

Seems after that you can select all the pages in windows explorer, hit print, and choose PDF.

tell me a bit about drying meat and making sausage.

hey, fair enough.

applejacks ,

thank you!

one thing I did not expect was how much more difficult it is than “regular art.”

and I still suck at it lmao

applejacks ,

looks nice 😎

applejacks ,
@applejacks@lemmy.world avatar

very fascinating thank you, may have to try this out.

applejacks ,
@applejacks@lemmy.world avatar

ha, well i have also been working on this for probably 10 hours in total.

it definitely takes effort.

applejacks ,

what is the benefit of sandboxing your work apps?

tangible, mental, or otherwise?
