Robot litter box
  • I’ve had the litter robot 4 for a little over a year and I love it. I have 3 cats and it’s so nice only having to empty a waste bag every few days instead of scooping every day. Totally worth the high cost if you hate cleaning litter boxes.

  • Plex starts narcing on its own users' anime and X-rated habits with an opt-out service, and it's going terribly
  • I always see this but I used Plex on my iPhone for months before I bought the Plex pass. I did buy the Plex app way back when and maybe that’s why but I’m also using a new Plex account so I don’t see how’d they be tied together.

  • Sadly, cancelled my Apple One subscription.
  • Fitness+ costs less per month than a peloton subscription.

    I also don’t know why you say music is a shit deal when it costs the same as all the other competing services. The 2TB cloud storage is also $10 a month which matches the competition too, just like you said you were paying. I will agree with news+ though, it’s garbage.

  • The UAW says it is expanding its strike to include a Ford truck plant in Kentucky
  • If you took my original comment as an argument the I guess we have different definitions of what that means. I was clearly stating that the F150 is made in Detroit (which it is, I’ve been there) and that the plant was already on strike. Someone else pointed out that they are also made in Kansas City, which I didn’t know at the time. Then you came in after the fact with your snarky comment. You could’ve read before you ever commented to see by then that I did in fact know trucks were made in Kansas City. Your comment added no value except to be “pissy” towards me by telling me how wrong I was.

    More Than 80 Percent Of Americans Can’t Afford New Cars
  • Ever since covid it’s made sense most of the time to buy brand new for exactly the reason you state. I sure wouldn’t buy a 2-3 year old car to save 10%. If someone treated it poorly it may require expensive repairs or not last as long.

  • iPhone users, what app do you use to browse Lemmy and what is the main reason you like it over others?
  • I’ve tried about 5-6 different ones and they all try to replicate Apollo. Memmy is probably the best of them in my opinion but none of them are as good as narwhal was for Reddit. I don’t understand the fascination for Apollo. Why we need 6 different Lemmy apps that are all very similar doesn’t make sense to me.

  • A new smartphone again? Rethink unhealthy culture of frequent upgrades
  • Your first comment was about a family of devices and now you only talk about the iPhone….because that’s the only device that has an open source alternative. Google/android/chrome offerings to every other category are worse than apples offerings, stuff is half baked. I’m all for open source but there is no denying how smooth all of apples devices just work with each other. That means something too. Not being open source do not equal bad automatically either.

    I personally don’t care about taking source code and compiling it or installing custom roms. I have other hobbies that take my time. I want a devices that work 99% of the time without effort straight from the box.

    If you enjoy non-apple products that’s great but this place just feels like the early days of Reddit where everyone is so anti-Apple because it’s cool. They do some shitty things (like basically every company ever) but they also do some really cool things too, like a family of 6 different products working seamlessly together.

  • A new smartphone again? Rethink unhealthy culture of frequent upgrades
  • So cringey. Some people do like Apple products. Nothing beats the Mac/macbook, Apple Watch, iPad or AirPods in their respective categories. Android and iPhone are basically feature wise the same so get what you like.

    But, how is it any different than being vendor locked into android with their wearables or tablets or chromebooks? Apple made an ecosystem that works well together. Just because you don’t like it doesn’t mean it’s bad.

    US mother sentenced to two years in prison for giving daughter abortion pills
  • It is way more than a clump of cells at 20 weeks. 20 weeks is when you do the huge ultrasound to make sure everything is developing how it should. My wife and I did a 20 week ultrasound for our first kid back in July and it looks just like a baby; you can see fingers, toes, facial structure, etc. The baby is kicking and rolling around through the whole thing.

    It’s funny you get downvoted because you are right. Anyone who has a kid or knows how babies develop would never want abortions allowed at 20 weeks except in certain circumstances. Europe has a 12 week ban for a reason. Europe is only progressive here when it fits their narrative.

  • Suggestions for wireless access points

    I am currently in the market for some wireless access points and thought I'd get some suggestions here first. I am currently using some old eero pro's as access points with a firewalla router. The firewalla isn't old and I am happy with it so I am not looking to replace it with something at this time.

    Are there suggestions for more privacy focused networking equipment? Or is that just a dumb question to ask?
