Google Phone appears to be testing a new incoming call UI
  • Also it is hilariously difficult to decline a call on Google dialer.

    It's as simple as swiping down on the screen. I agree it's a little under-sensitive if you try to swipe down from the circle with the icon at the bottom. But you can swipe down from anywhere on the screen and it will decline the call.

  • Trump Media plummets 10% as post-lockup selloff picks up steam
  • "Lockup" is an investment term. When a company has an IPO (Initial Public Offering, which is the day they become publically available for stock trades), the big shareholders and company employees who are invested ahead of the IPO are "locked" from selling their shares for a certain number of days. This isn't required, but most companies having an IPO end up having a lockup period set as well.

    In regards to this headline, it just means that the initial investors and big shareholders are now free to sell their shares, which they are apparently doing in droves!

  • Genius or incredibly stupid?
  • The whole social aspect of Venmo is one of the stupidest things to have ever been created. I use Venmo because it's the most widely used platform, but all of my transactions are private.

    Do people even scroll through the public feed of their friends? Why does anyone care that their friend paid another friend (who they likely don't even know) $10 for a burger and fries? So fucking dumb.

  • Unsure of the future with my current fiance.
  • Why do you need to know the gender of the partner? That it not important to know, nor does it matter. This just tells me you have preconceived notions about how they should act and want to formulate your response based on their gender. And if any of the post is confusing to you, you just have poor reading comprehension. :)

  • Laptop won't shut down on any kernel version above 6.7
  • I had something similar happen to me with Debian 12. I believe pressing ALT + F7 after it reached that "power off" message forced the computer to power off. Something caused it to get stuck, but I'm not 100% sure. It may have been some bug with my Samba file share setup, but I have no way of confirming that.

    Not sure if this will work for you, but it's worth a try. Good luck and hope you solve the issue!

  • So like, what absolutely ridiculous thing did you take to be fact when you were a kid?
  • I believed it to be an absolute fact that all cats are female and all dogs are male. I had no idea how reproduction worked at this point, so it just made sense to me.

    Then one day, a classmate was talking about her cat and how "HE" had done something funny. I had to clarify, "Your cat is a boy?!?" and my entire understanding of animals was shattered that day.

  • Reddit started blocking VPN users on old.reddit.com
  • It goes much deeper than just coffee shops and other public wifi. There are people in oppressive countries that have to use VPNs to get around their country-wide bans of certain sites, such as anything that provides access to information. Reddit used to be a sanction for tons of information sharing. But now, with Reddit going public, they have to appeal to their shareholders, who probably have business or other deals in those oppressive countries. So, even if Reddit is simply trying to force users to be trackable, it still behooves the shareholders to make information and knowledge more difficult to access to certain people.

  • 'Everyone in the World Needs to See This': Footage Shows IDF Drone Killing Gazans
  • Fucking morons will continue to vote for Genocide Joe anyway.

    And no idea what Trump has to do with this.

    Because Dictator Donnie is the only other option. Believing any other candidate is even a viable choice is delusional. American politics is fucked so voting for 3rd party is not remotely helpful. You either vote for Joe or are complicit in the MAGA agenda.

  • Yep, advertiser don't care how they got those clicks. They just want the numbers to go up so they feel like their "investment" is doing something. Tricking people into thinking it's user content, showing half naked girls for a dumb mobile gambling game, showing fake products... they don't care. Advertisers only have one thought: "Hurr Durr Numbers Go Brr"

  • Reddit wants to raise $748M with IPO, sets value at $6.4B
  • Every day the same thing ad nausea. Fascism bad. Sexism bad. Phobia bad. Musk bad. Orange man bad. Inflation bad. Boomers bad. Cats good. Name my rescue dog. Celebrity good. Celebrity dead.

    That's not just Reddit. That's the entire Internet right now. Reddit or Lemmy, X or Mastodon, Facebook or anything else on the Fediverse. It's all the same. We are living in a time of mass fear because of several different reasons. War, climate, economy, personal rights... pick whatever topic you want. There's a reason to be angry about it.

    We need to go back to the days of happy people sharing their passions, rather than angry people attacking each other. But that won't happen anytime soon.

  • Yuzu agrees to pay Nintendo $2.4 million and will entirely shut down
  • Basically every emulator developer will say that their platform is not for piracy but for backing up your legally purchased games, but it's usually just a "wink wink nudge nudge" type of thing for legal reasons.
