Classic you can run, but you can’t hide. Love it.

e_mc2 ,

Yeah, but I paid for Nova Prime back then.

I’m not American and I always wear shoes in the house. Why the fuck not?

e_mc2 ,

We do have a lot of rain, specially in this time of year, but we have something here that is called a schoonloopmat which cleans/dries your shoes quite good. That together with hard wooden floors throughout the house makes I never take off my shoes at home.

There’s one thing that’s preventing me from doing exactly that and that is, as a non-native English speaker with tinnitus, the constant struggle to find good subtitles that are properly synced. My lazy ass just wants to enjoy a movie at a normal volume without having to force myself to be super-focussed in order not to miss the whole goddamn plot of the movie.

Smartphone Keyboard Information Bonanza: What's available and what's best for your needs

Howdy. I wanted a central place for information surrounding smartphone keyboards since there have been some changes recently to a few of them. I hope to keep this post afloat over the long term so we can share experiences, information, news, etc to find the perfect smartphone keyboard for ourselves and help others do the same....

e_mc2 ,

How do you mean “you can only install b building it yourself”? I just downloaded it from Github, installed it like any other keyboard and started using it. Works like a charm.

e_mc2 ,

Wild suggestion here. Type the word “Proton” in your search engine of choice and almost blindly click on the first link that comes up. Take as long as you need.

Is there anything the Republicans vote for that actually favors the public instead of only big corps?

e_mc2 ,

Who cares. If you have a shred of privacy awareness, you’d steer very clear from it.

e_mc2 ,

I am a strong supporter of keeping religions a private matter. Believe anything you want but let it be your belief and do not try to force it onto anybody else, not even your own children. Let them decide for themselves if they want to join you or not.

e_mc2 ,

That’s a lot of whataboutism there mate.

e_mc2 ,

Kinda strange isn’t it? You’d think that if you divorce a guy, the last thing you want is keep his name.

e_mc2 OP ,

I agree completely that this can have negative impact on discussions, stimulate karma farming etc. So I’m all for it to hide it. Would be nice though to completely skip it from the UI (of in this case Boost).

e_mc2 OP ,

Well put.

e_mc2 OP ,

There was, for a short period.

Problem is that no noncommercial platform would ever have the same coverage as a commercial one like X. People simply would not see the necessity to install it until it’s too late.

FLAC files are typically larger than MP3, because with MP3 roughly 90% of the original file is discarded on encoding, hence lossy compression. At decoding the codec tries to restore this 90% out of the original remaining 10%. This sounds worse than it actually is, but you understand why MP3 is considered inferior by audio purists.

On the other hand FLAC uses a different compression technique that reduces the original file by 30-50% but without any data deletion, hence lossless. So, original file let’s say 100MB as .wav, compresses to 30-50 MB IN FLAC and 6-10 MB in MP3.

I gladly sacrifice the additional storage to get noticeably better quality audio.

e_mc2 ,

I don’t entirely agree with you. Comparing the same song in MP3 or FLAC on the factory-fitted audio system in my car (2023 Skoda Octavia Combi) already makes a huge difference. Of course the difference is smaller when using 256 or 320 kbps MP3, but even then FLAC just adds that extra bit of depth and “openness” to the music

In the end all religions boil down to one thing. Power and dominance (specifically male dominance) over others. “My religion is X and you have to do as I say because MY fairy tale book tells me bla-bla-bla, so YOU have to obey.” Fuck all religions who use their shit stories to oppress others.

e_mc2 ,

I seriously doubt it.

e_mc2 ,

Scale-wise not perhaps, but on percentage of destroyed buildings in a particular (small) area it’s right up there I think.

e_mc2 ,

Praise to her work, but that just looks like a really bad AI image.

e_mc2 ,

Holy F… this image is from an accident couple of years ago near Baarn, The Netherlands. My brother in law was present at the scene as a fireman. Took them several hours to put out the battery fire. First time an accident ruptured the batteries and no one knew how to handle this type of fires yet.

e_mc2 ,

EU to the rescue, again.

e_mc2 ,

“My russia”!? Hey guys, I think we found Putin’s nick here.

e_mc2 ,

Very knowledgeable and spot-on comment, at least as far as the Dutch situation is concerned (can’t really judge for the English). This is the kind of stuff I come to Lemmy for, thank you!

e_mc2 ,

Getting downvoted just for asking for some civil discussion… I’m getting some “good” old-fashioned reddit vibes here.

e_mc2 ,

Atrocities are perpetrated on both sides. That doesn’t excuse either of them nor does it justify committing them.

e_mc2 ,

This is a very little uplifting news in the otherwise immensely sad dystopian reality that is Gaza right now. Fortunately there are still some people who actively show some humanity over there.

e_mc2 ,

At the risk of being downvoted into oblivion here, there is really no justification anymore for the atrocities IDF is committing right now. First driving Palestinians into a corner like cattle and now bombing that same corner. How can any decent human being accept this?

e_mc2 ,

Although not his biggest fan, but Bono has had quite an interesting life so far. Him or George Michael.

e_mc2 ,

My wife and daughter do yeah. Blaring kpop at 7 in the morning. FML

e_mc2 ,

Apart from the word, don’t you agree that the way Israel is acting at this moment is condemnable?

e_mc2 ,

I’m assuming with “you” you do not mean me personally since I did not write the initial comment nor did I in any way excuse using that ignorant word. I was merely stating that whatever Israel is doing at this moment in Gaza is disgusting and condemnable.

e_mc2 ,

I snorted my coffee, thanks.

e_mc2 ,

Forgot the “out”, bit decided to just leave it for the lolz.

e_mc2 ,

I hate with the intensity of a million suns that they always have this absolute fucking bullshit argument “For better experience”.

e_mc2 ,

I sure hope it’s all of the above combined times a zillion.

e_mc2 ,

Not too broke to own a PC or smart phone to be here, so easy excuse imo. Small bits also help, it’s the gesture that counts.

e_mc2 ,

I’m definitely not trying to shame anyone. Just saying it’s the gesture that counts. Even donating 1, 2, 5 dollars makes a difference. It’s a big thank you to all the devs who make all these awesome apps and tools for free. And in my opinion nobody is too broke to show their appreciation for these people, even if it’s just a very small amount. It makes a hell of a difference to those devs.

e_mc2 ,

Downvoted for making a point to support devs who built FOSS. I’m getting some “nice” Reddit vibes here.

e_mc2 ,

Hema rookworsten FTW

e_mc2 ,

Absolutely! Immediately subscribed as I found them and happy with the activity over there.

e_mc2 ,

Honestly, what more do you really need from a smart phone nowadays? And for this price, I’d buy it in a heart beat. Sadly, this will probably never come to Europe.

e_mc2 ,

Not so sugary tits today huh? More like sour.

e_mc2 ,

Does it? How so? I’m using Voyager as well and I see it mentioned in similar posts as well so not too much of a rarity I guess.
