God dammit Todd…

The Wizard Tower was so cool too…

You and me both brother. I’ve been purchasing slightly older devices second hand lately. While I can’t maintain these devices myself, I can save a phone from entering the landfill while saving a chunk of cash.

I wonder what percentage of buyers are jumping ship outside the android space as users become less enthusiastic about purchasing a phone every two years or so. It may be irksome seeing their device getting fewer updates when the an iPhone from 2017(maybe 18?) still got a major iOS update this past year.

Holy shit really?!? That’s the main reason most people think their phone is “going bad!” That will be wonderful for sustainability.

I believe he’s even showing up in Alex Jone’s spaces on Twitter too. I have no proof and only a gut feeling alongside the participant sounds just like Elon, speaks in vague tech bullshit just like the man, and only espouses goals and a world view that just so happens to align with Elon and his goals.

Hey man, I work on a Microsoft full stack — VS corrupts files or locks up regularly 🤷That’s before we touch Windows on a server box

Well, I wouldn’t call it a “brain dead take”. I usually keep an Android and an iOS handset and I view each with a set of drawbacks and payoffs. The former (usually) allows you to unlock the boot loader without drawbacks and the latter does not. The latter is exclusive to a set of hardware. So if you want to have iOS you’re consigned to using the hardware deemed acceptable by Apple — but if someone were to accomplish “the brain dead take” a whole host of hardware would be available to you. There’s utility to that for some people.

Can confirm. I was able to replicate the behavior. Cheers

What reason would there be to enable notifications?

Weird, my Pixel 6a currently doesn’t have a persistent notification when I use Proton. Is this a GrapheneOS thing? Just curious.

Did for me, at least. Having a “slower” version of reddit has done wonders for me. I’ve been able to get the news updates on Lemmy, but there isn’t a deluge of dopamine hits in my feed like Reddit. It’s done wonders for me.

What provides me trepidation is the economic system means slack jawed corpos with MBAs will be working tirelessly to skirt safety.

Now if the government was to run … Wait, that is communism and is therefore the bad thing to do /s

Oh yeah, I usually mod games like WoW or w.e. so the file structure lends to it being easily modded.

Hmm. This case comes up for me regularly. I usually have a hidden file on level lower than my home directory that is linked to the directory in question. I then launch nautilus, and drag and drop as needed.

If it happens often enough I create a bash script that automatically launches nautilus at that location.

Is it better? Prolly not, but it’s how I do it 😅

I usually click around the gui like a ham-fisted animal

I search in the terminal.

The tasks are separate for me. I usually launch the explorer at pwd to do my clicks, and close it.

I’ll test this stuff out of curiosity later tonight!!

It occurs to me now I never searched for anything through the explorer.

Really? I haven’t had any issues. What was wrong with the file explorer.

That being said, my system is base Fedora plus a few extensions.

I’m unsure. I switch between MacOS and Linux regularly.

I’d reckon Apple’s OS would dominate the “user friendly” space(not saying Linux is bad, just what everyone memes).

The OP said they made this in photoshop!

I preferred Brave but I’m side-eyeing it the more news that comes out about Chromium.

Neat. What would the use case for this be though? Maybe while riding on a plane?
