ASMR?

In tomorrow's VC pitch deck: Clipboard-as-a-service. Subscribers get two clipboards to start with. Each clipboard has a sensor that detects when it breaks, which will automatically trigger the shipment of a new clipboard to the owner. That way they'll always have one working clipboard at all times.

Ah i wasn't sure if you just wanted to follow or participate. This solution allows you to follow but not participate

Why do you need a 3d printer when carrots have been coming out of the ground for thousands of years.

they explain that in the article :)

I have the perfect solution - rdx.overdevs.com

It's mobile-friendly, and you can follow/subscribe without creating an account. You can also import a list of current subscriptions from your old reddit account using a .json file.

The only issue is that it's read-only and you can't create an account, post or upvote. But given the shitstorm that is the reddit admin team, i view this as a good thing!

this deserves to be its own post!

The best term I’ve heard to describe this is “Hapsburg AI”

don’t feed the trolls, just downvote and move on

Why not sort your subscribed communities by New?

Yeah, I mean this might my personal deficiency that other people don’t have… but if I see a comment I disagree with and then I see that it has been upmodded heavily, I get a greatly increased urgency to shit on that comment to make people see how wrong it is. Totally toxic and encouraged by the scoring system.

As with anything, this is intended behavior but perhaps taken too far by some people.

A points system is the best way to get a sense of what other people think, and whether your views are generally accepted. When you’re in a social setting, you can tell from nonverbal clues (e.g. if you start saying something and people frown/inch away, you know they don’t agree). This is valuable.

When you see something upvoted highly that you don’t agree with, OR something downvoted highly that you agree with, it could be one of two scenarios:

A. You’re right, but people generally have misconceptions about the issue.

B. You have a controversial take on the issue.

It’s not always clear which of these it is. That’s why a lot of internet yelling matches devolve into some variation of “downvoted for truth” or “downvote all you want, facts are facts and you’re just blind” - people think it’s B, the person arguing thinks it’s A.

To combat this, you need the following:

1. Reasoning and critical thinking skills are important. At the most basic, learn to distinguish fact from opinion, but also learn to understand an argument.

2. Be humble. Don’t approach it from a “I must win this argument” mentality - try and understand why they’re thinking that way.

3. Pick your battles. Sometimes you just have to disagree and walk away. Nobody is going to give you a prize for making the last comment in an argument.

Of course, it’s easier to just not look at the numbers. But then why not just… not use lemmy/reddit/internet forums? If this isn’t giving you any pleasure, why read/comment at all?

I don’t know what you’re talking about, there has never been a movie adaptation of the book! Never!

Are there plans to build some sort of instance-blocking feature?

oh yeah, much less jumping from video to video nowadays.

YT could have provided recommendations based on categories you picked out, or countries, or just what’s popular today. Instead they decided to throw a hissy fit and show a blank homepage.

I’m taking it as my detox from social media. Facebook many years ago, Twitter last year, Reddit this year, now YT (although to be fair I still use the subscriptions tab, but it’s made me spend less time on YT).

It’s wild that companies essentially destroyed the practice of overclocking.

The Romans must have called it a V-turn

I sold my Pixel 6 pro to get a Samsung S23. Unfortunately the main issues I had with the pixel were hardware-related and recurring, and while samsung isn’t ideal, most of their issues could be solved with a one-time fix.

Main issues I had with the Pixel:

• Fingerprint sensor doesn’t work with privacy screens. Period. It’s not a question of buying cheap privacy screens, the Pixel fingerprint reader is optical and is just not compatible with privacy screens. Samsung uses an ultrasonic reader which is compatible with privacy screens.
• The 6 Pro was unwieldy and ridiculously large, the smaller 6 doesn’t have the triple camera setup. Samsung is one of the few that doesn’t sacrifice phototaking ability in a smaller form factor.
• That godawful new quick toggles UI is horrible. The quick toggles are ridiculously large, and who decided it would be a good idea to merge the wifi and internet toggles?! I managed to use adb commands to split the toggles in 12, but that broke with 13.

Issues I had with the Samsung:

• Bloat - this was mainly in the form of some preinstalled software, but unlike in the early days of Samsung, I could uninstall most of the bloat easily without resorting to root, adb, etc. No bloat (pixel) is still better than bloat that can be uninstalled (samsung), but this problem was permanently solved after about 10 minutes.
• Some Samsung native apps have horrible permission settings - eg Samsung Pay requires access to your contacts, and if you deny it any one permission, the app just force closes. I got around this by uninstalling the offending apps and using alternatives (e.g. google pay) - again, a one-time issue. fuck the intrusive permissions.

some people want more storage space maybe? not OP, just guessing.

As a dude I would offer to pay for their cab home, but someone asking for that is a yellow flag.

Asking for me to pay for a bunch of stuff, including the cab, would be a red flag. Unless I’ve travelled back in time to the 70’s or I’m living in Saudi Arabia, paying for my date should be a nice thing to do, not an expectation.

The pixel 7 line had pretty good cameras, didn’t they? Iirc it was 64MP
