Thanks, Apple
  • Why is the title "Thanks, Google"? Isn't that Apple Maps?

  • Funny stuff is happening with the spoilers in this comment, they aren't rendering as spoilers on the first two but tapping the actual spoilers removes the broken spoiler characters around the first two lines? Really strange: https://lemmy.world/comment/10822445

  • YouTube is experimenting with server-side ads
  • YouTube's also been experimenting with built-in sponsorblock for Premium subscribers, which I find weird.

  • Buckfast Tonic Wine - Tasting Notes
  • Makes me think of Dave Barry on Wine

  • AI is the future
  • For some reason I don't have AI search on my account, but I still get the same answer:

  • iPhone owners say the latest iOS update is resurfacing deleted nudes
  • Well, someone obviously didn't read past the headline: its undeleting images locally that haven't been overwritten

  • Vanguard just went live and LoL players are already claiming it's bricking their PCs
  • I installed Fortnite to check out the LEGO mode without realizing EAC was a rootkit and the next Windows update bricked my PC.

  • Deleted
    The people who made Scrunchies understand this concept better than trash bag manufacturers.
  • Striker didn't say that you have to engage, he said that when you do it should be more constructive. C'mon.

  • Stop Using Your Face or Thumb to Unlock Your Phone
  • I have Button Mapper trigger a Tasker task that locks my phone when I hold the volume down button, for some reason Button Mapper's lock doesn't trigger a lockdown.

    (Tap and hold still lowers the volume)

  • Anon encounters a Switch owner
  • TotK didn't introduce a way to repair weapons, it reduced their durability to near nothing then gave you a way to buff them.

  • Heliboard goes into 1.0
  • I started learning Japanese as I started using Heliboard, for now I just swap back when I need it. GBoard doesn't play nice with the language button switching between apps so I just use the OS keyboard button and have the language button disabled everywhere, which also frees up some space!

  • Density
  • In High School my dad and little sister came to pick me up from the state YMCA Y&G conference and I was told on the way out that the girl I was talking to was very obviously flirting with me. I didn't even remember who I'd been talking to.

  • What is your current wallpaper? Where did you find it?
  • I want to do a rewrite, it's got some silly issues RN:

    • Crops are stored in individual CSVs per image and ratio instead of a proper database and when you restart the server it has to reload all of them
    • The only UI is the gallery and the image cropping screen
    • To get to the gallery you have to type your screen resolution into the URL bar
    • Thumbnails aren't cached so they load into the gallery very slowly
    • I send 1:1 wallpapers to both my tablet and watch but when some particular art of Sylvanas that looks great on my watch gets send to my tablet while it's in landscape it's just her torso

    Regardless of all that I think its still pretty nifty and I'd be willing to help set it up or you follow me on Mastodon I'll post there when I have news: @aido@social.undarkpixel.com

    (I lost my hobby coding spark for a while but it seems to be coming back, though right now that's in the form of an Anki plugin that generates a flashcard deck by extracting data from the vocab app for a Japanese textbook called Genki)

  • What is your current wallpaper? Where did you find it?
  • My solution is a bit eccentric: I wrote a webserver I call Wallpaper Garden that let's you define crops of tour collection at different aspect ratios and then serves them via a random endpoint or RSS feed. Then I consume the random endpoint from a Tasker script on my phone and watch and the RSS feeds from John's Background Switcher on my PC.

    My collection is made up mostly of game press kit images (Destiny, Blizzard, Skyrim, Nintendo, etc.) but also some default OS stuff, random high-res images from Reddit, astronomy photos/collages by A. James McCarthy, and some other random stuff

    Current set:

  • $500K Dune Built to Protect Coastal Homes Lasts Just 3 Days
  • Switch to uBlock Origin

  • I'd be angry too
  • The Federation is created at the end of Enterprise: before that there's a cold war going on between the Andorians and the Vulcans. The Coalition of Planets forms during the show and is dissolved when the Federation is created.
