  • "PewdiePie, one of the world’s most popular YouTubers, recently published a video extolling the virtues of GrapheneOS"

    Gross. Seriously though, Graphene is really good. Don't hold this against them.

  • I've run both Graphene and Lineage. I will be sticking with Graphene. Lineage isn't really drastically different than any other android experience in my opinion. Graphene is another animal. It includes privacy and security features that just aren't available elsewhere. It even offers a degree of protection when using Google apps, using a sort of neutered version of Google Play that has its spying features limited to the bare necessity to do its job.

    I'm not even scratching the surface, and if there's a downside it's that it will take a little reading to understand all your new options. I've been running it for six months or so and I'm totally sold. Once you're used to it, it'll feel like how android should work.

  • So every user is their own moderator... which just sounds like a ton of extra work vs something like Mastodon where I can pick a server whose moderation practices I agree with, is already decentralized into countless servers and allows the user to spin up their own instance.

    Keyword filtration as a moderation technique is woefully ineffective vs trolls who simply find "clever" new ways to harass with intentional misspellings, dogwhistles, etc.

    Meanwhile, you're pitching this thing as "uncensorable" which automatically appeals to the worst elements available. Maybe I'm wrong and it'll be the perfect format for internet discussion, but I'm going to have to see that actually happen before I jump on board.

  • Tips for Smart TVs?

    Jump
  • Gotcha.

    Actually, the best UI I've seen from smart TVs actually comes from some of the cheapest TVs: ones that come with Roku built in. You still have the spyware problem, and sometimes the hardware is pretty low end, but the UI is just like any Roku device.

  • I'm pretty adept with my ff/rw buttons, but I already have the docker machine to run this...

    The thing that gets me about the ads on BTB is that (based on the ads I get) IHeart apparently thinks of it as a "true crime" podcast and... I guess I can see that, but I've got zero interest in listening to podcasts about some weird small town murder or whatever.

  • I think that's the unspoken implication and I'm instantly suspicious of the entire premise. The entire field of forensic science is filled to the brim with things described as "fingerprints" that are not nearly as unique or consistent as the field would have us believe.

  • Now that's just not true... someone has to load the van.

    (I kid. I play both... and a few other things.)

    OP: Nice Danelectro. I've got a Korean 59 NOS+ and while I have guitars worth ten times as much, it still pops up in the rotation regularly.

  • I'm with you. It was still cool enough to run the trimmer at noon. It's up to 21C (70F) now which is a little warmer than I prefer to work in, but still not overwhelming. We're not quite getting freezing temps at night anymore, so it's in the sweet spot: warm enough to plant tomatoes and peppers, cool enough to do the work without breaking a sweat!

  • "Frosty clover" sounds like something you could type into a search engine and discover some sort of improbable sex act...

    Good picture though. I love sunny spring days where it's still getting cold at night and the day gets up into "shorts" weather.

    Any IP lawyers in the house?
