Behavioral psychologists working for TikTok, Instagram and the likes are like physical doctors working for McDonald's to make their junk food more addictive while blindly accepting that it will become even more unhealthy.
What a miserable waste of workforce.
I want a mid-range phone with a great camera and a telephoto lens.
I don't need no AI bullshit, I don't do gaming, I don't need 32 gigs of ram on a phone.
I just wanna take great pictures.
Even better: Get $ 130k if he loved you!!
No shit!
Ah snap!
I have been using Linux since 2007. I have never had to update video drivers manually.
Sure, I don't do gaming. But neither do most grandmothers.
Actually, it's a bell pepper that looked so red and delicious I couldn't keep myself from buying it.
It's about to drip down onto the beer bottles.
Gross.
Actually I do a whole lot of things!
Just not those that I'm apparently supposed/required to do.
I'm going to attempt moving to wg-easy on Docker which is supposed to be, you know, easy...
That's me every morning!! Who needs breakfast anyway?
What tips the scale isn't the looming weight but the deadline-induced adrenaline rush! At least for me, this kinda works in most cases. It just is very stressful!
I never poop on either of my hands.
To save them some more time: Wayland isn't supported yet, unfortunately.
Therapy is free in my (European) country... if you can find a vacancy or pay it yourself. So it isn't.
'Murica!
When I look at my Pi Hole dashboard while my girlfriend's Mac is booted, I'm surprised by how many requests are blocked, given that apple somehow has the reputation of respecting their user's privacy.
And when she boots into Windows 10 MS's data stealing gets downright creepy.
I am lucky enough not to have a Windows 11 PC on my network but I think I would see even more denied requests.
It is believed that Ludwig van Beethoven died of lead poisoning as the port he used to drink was supposedly adulterated.
I am something of a jack of all trades, and that's one of the good things about this whole shit!
I just need people to acknowledge it...
Questionable.
Wait another month! You'll have a new friend to discuss politics with! :D
*surprised Pikachu*
Personally, I don't mind. But hopefully, new users will know where to find available applications. I'm not sure...
I'll actually try this right away tomorrow morning when I get to do my work, concluding that I want to get shit done because of my bad-conscience-induced stomach ache.
If you want a successor to the Pebble, also consider Bangle.js 2. It's a little more expensive compared with the PineTime but I got one and I'm very happy!
I guess it just makes a very stressed human being, which is not healthy at all in the long run, neither psychically nor physically.
Since this is Lemmy, I would like to link to Freesewing.
Create an account, enter your measurements, and you will be able to download free sewing patterns made to measure!
I have a Sony Reader PRS-350 since 2011 and honestly the battery life never has been great. It's discharging too quickly when powered off and even faster when on standby.

I use a FFP3-Mask with exhaust valves while biking in spring and early summer to filter out pollen and this works really well for me!
Masks without valves are exhausting to me and fog up my glasses too much though.
Doesn't help. I'd have to ask again by then.
Telling from my own experience, looking at your phone is not going to be helpful.
My advice would be to do something entertaining, but tiring. Like solving a sudoku if that floats your boat. Or reading. At least that's what sometimes does the trick for me.
Look, I don't mean to be disrespectful at all. I just wonder. And yes I do think that perhaps it would be nice to have more diversity in the kind of software that people develop. I just noticed there's a flood of note taking apps and I wonder why this is. But ofc it's up to the developers to decide what kind of software they want to work on, mostly sacrificing their free time. That being said I'm very thankful for everybody who's developing useful foss software!
I use GPSLogger to create my monthly travel log for my employer. You can fine-tune it pretty well and it works almost as well as Google's location timeline while not having to rely on Google's appetite for personal data.
I use its built-in ssh upload feature to get my data transferred to my SBC at home.
In my case and opinion the Bangle.js 2 is even better.
AFAIK the attitude of the Russian middle class is like "we don't care about politics and even if we did, there's nothing we could do about it anyway, so we'll just go with the flow and fly under the radar as good as we can."
This mindset has been formed by the Soviet times and is now becoming more important again.
Oops, missed that typo. Sorry I guess...
Same for me. I think I wouldn't even be a computer addict if I had to use something else
As far as I know there's a web interface to sort out all that kind of stuff.
You see, parents are a motor to innovation. (/s)
Hopefully the patent runs out soon...
