Thanks for your efforts. I know that Lemmy was put in place rather quickly as a Reddit alternative. But I’m genuinely hopeful that this will be a good alternative.

Twitter has been a hellhole. There was a leak of some source code which did show how Twitter was giving content related to Ukraine a lower score for suggesting on peoples timelines.

I’ve been off that platform for a while as I feel that even with NAFO shit-posting, all I’m achieving is, pushing more engagement to trash accounts.

That’s a link to Louis’s video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4To-F6W1NT0

Sad really as I also like the idea behind it. I’ve been running Cyanogenmod on 2 old phones in the past and just installed LineageOS on an old Tab S2 to breathe some new life into that old but still good tablet.

That shit sucks. When blue LEDs became a thing all sorts of electronics adopted them and they were effin everywehre.

This makes you appreciate professional equipment which is less likely to have those ridiculously bright ones. Lenovo usually have pretty discrete orange LEDs on their professional equipment. The large professional Dell monitor I use at work, while fitted with a white LED, has a very dim one.

I’m thinking of making an necklace saying:

The next time I see this cat, it’s going straight to the pound. If I see it again, you won’t see it again.

Then attach it to a stray cat that I do find. Hopefully that gets the owner to keep it indoors.

I wonder how many of these were fraudulently claimed by the agent and then released, but the tenant didn’t know they can now claim them?

I had a bond claimed by an agent in Sydney for breaking a lease early and had to jump through countless hoops to get it back.

It’s a good call for me to use reddit less. It’ll encourage me more to spend more time on Lemmy. For now I’m using Voyager and so far it’s not bad.

Looking at that sudden increase in OS X usage, I assume its related to the M1 chip? Although I still wouldn’t touch apple with a 6foot pole. People love to shit on Microsoft, at least they tend to treat their staff well. Everyone seems to have forgotten that Apple fitted nets at their Foxconn factory.

I can als troubleshoot any OS except stuff made by the fruit business as everything is hidden behind secret button combinations and lock outs.

METAs apps effin stink! They’re buggy, have annoying habits and I can’t do a lot of the stuff I want. The most annoying part of them is their instance on their handcrafted image selector which vaguely sorts content by date.

I’ve got 20 years of images on my phone. If I want to post an image to a comment that I took 10 years ago, I’ll be sitting there scrolling like a numbnut to find it. On web-apps I can just use the file browser or even Android extension to find the image I want in a way that makes sense.

Still heavily chipping away at artillery. Are they also counting T55’s that were converted to be makeshift artillery cannons?
