I've seen some videos where folks have replaced micro or mini USB with type c, but it seems a little involved unless you're already comfortable with electronics. Still a cute little radio though!
This is less a response exclusively to this post and more the Tesla discourse broadly
I get we really wanna find people to hate because it makes us feel better about how deeply broken our world is but a lot of folks bought teslas long before we knew Elon would undergo his transformation into a public nazi.
Having bought a product from a person who later turns out to be a huge piece of shit doesn't make you a bad person. And cars are major financial choices that depreciate MASSIVELY the moment they're yours.
I get we all wanna say "Tesla expensive therefore they're rich and they can afford to blow another massive sum of money on another car to replace the tesla", but like... A) lots of Tesla drives are not rich. They're the exact people we have to remind that they are still dirty poors compared to the actual rich people that we need to tax way more. And even for people pretty well off, blowing that kind of money on a purely performative, symbolic replacement of a product they already gave Elon money for is an objectively dumb choice.
We have mocked conservatives for dumb boycotts where they burn their shoes or dump out all their beer from a brand they no linger respect, but we turn around and set the expectation that others with a product we don't like follow exact same logic for what is the second largest category of purchase most people will ever make in their life.
For all the people who will never be able to afford a house because we live in a capitalist hellscape it's the most expensive category of purchase there is. And it depreciates massively the instant it became theirs.
I'm all for mocking cybertruck owners, they bought a shit car, from a shit man, and more importantly they gave him a lot of money knowing how dangerous and horrible he is.
But owning a Tesla doesn't immediately make you a bad person and a fascist. For a lot of people it means you bought the best made electric car on the market because you care about the environment.
At some point I will but I'm not currently ready to make that transition. My friend and I are using Duolingo together and the social aspect plus the familiarity of the structure have been really helpful
They walked back the ai thing (at least that's my understanding about it, I think there was a statement about it, not that that means much) but it's very clear it wont be something that's likely to work for me long term
But for the time being the structure that it provides and its format has helped me build a routine and actually stay pretty consistent, and I don't think I'm at a place yet where I can transition away from it
But I have checked out the Foss options and there were some neat supplemental tools on f-droid, and at some point I'll go through the play store and try out direct alternatives
Someone replied with it elsewhere in the thread :)
Thank you! ❤️
I'm from NC- does the law require they be there or require they have the option to be there..?
Cause if its the latter that's not strictly bad. I'm kinda conflicted on it honestly, they have a right to be there, but it's also pretty much guaranteed to be a deeply traumatic experience....
They succeeded at removing the rust, but failed at being able to sell it off and have one less thing. Because now their dad has chosen to keep it lol
This seems like it'll break things like revanced, which honestly makes me sad mostly for Duolingo :(
Really hope folks find a way of spoofing this too. I'm hoping to switch to a custom ROM in the future and this doesn't bode super well
I think the feeling weird might just be that the depth of field is narrow and keeps changing. It creates a really strange look. No idea I'd thats a common thing in AI video but it seems like it could just be a quirk of how they chose to film...
Super interesting. In initial reading it seemed at fist like you might have misinterpreted the study but it does seem like they're saying it's been well established that immigrantion lowers neighbour violent crime (though I'm not sure exactly what that does or doesn't include)
And it seems like a lot of this paper is more specifically about how opportunity for meaningful political engagement, or self representation augments that decrease in violent crime. Without reading the whole thing I can't tell how much they focus on the general relationship between immigration and violent crime, or crime in general
I'd like to know also, what a beautiful little object
AYYYY, LETS FUKING GOOO
I'll have to try this again for my little media center setup. If I can sync with desktop I'll be much happier to use it on mobile
Still struggling to ween myself off youtube recommendations though 😅 thats the biggest thing missing for me, it's soooo much harder to discover stuff or find things I want to watch with grayjay or newpipe, and if I just jam a million things in my subscriptions I'll just end up with lots of things I'm not interested in watching at any given point in time
I should probably add more stuff and just add them to more subscription groups which can kinda help with that. If anyone has recommendations I'd welcome them :)
Honestly kind of a neat little walk down emoji history-lane, thanks for posting!
I'm still sad blob emojis are dead but google still has the best emoji designs.
☺️ looks infinitely better in the google designs than most and it's my favorite lol (though I also like 😊 a lot and I think it might look a little better in other sets if I remember right)
Cosmetically the case looks lovely!
Cute!
I believe this is what the post looks like when it's a cross post using the crosspost functionality (like using the crosspost button if your client has one)
For me your post shows up as one of the places this was also posted which tells me this was cross posted from one of the many times this has been crossposted across various comms, including your original post
I really wish the UI was more unambiguous about something being a crosspost (its really unclear on all I've used, but some at least let you find out if you go looking and try to check), which is why I always add some text to say "this is a crosspost" and sometimes the original location I got it from when I crosspost stuff
:((( its good to at least be surrounded by others who have your back and are supporting eachother even if your bosses suck
