Hungary says hi.

Normally I’d agree but google had a real problem with “everything is a simple red-yellow-blue-green outline” for a while so it’s been a long walk to get them to have actually distinct appearances.

These ones are good. Now just don’t change them.

I mean they actually look different from each other so that’s good

I’m on team Occam’s Razor on this. We don’t need complicated conspiracy theories to explain why people keep shooting at the most unpopular and destructive man on Earth.

Compromise: mandatory service for young people, wealth taxes on older people who never had to face mandatory service.

Yeah, Chromecast has been kind of a disaster for Google imho, in that it never got widespread adoption in TVs. If they’d pushed an open standard they might’ve been able to get that over the finish-line and get buy-in from 3rd parties. But instead every smart TV and smart phone has its own video streaming approach, it seems.

Right but I’m specifically referring to devices where their USB-C port is capable of full video out.

Yeah, I have a pixel 7 and was disappointed on vacation to learn that its USB-C port can’t do video when I wanted to plug it into a hotel room TV.

I don’t get why this is a Pixel thing at all and not an Android thing though. Shouldn’t any Android OS device that can do full video output over USB-C be able to do this?

Building 7

One of these things just doesn’t belong here, one of these things is not like the other ones.

I love how photo-based age verification scanning is the worst of both worlds - it destroys your anonymity, but not in a way that makes it easier to run a community where you can ban a person by their digital ID since they can just make a new one with the same face since facial recognition is too crude for that.

Ah, my bad. I looked it up and while Android does have an analog to what iOS calls “lockdown”, Android uses different terminology for it, since “Lockdown” is, as you said, lock the lockscreen to be password/pin-only (which would still be a reasonable approach before being forced to turn over your phone to somebody since those are things that are harder to be compelled to provide).

Android’s version of iOS “Lockdown” is called “Advanced Protection Mode”.

I’d forgotten because the first thing I did when that rolled out was revert it so long-press on the power button was the power menu. IIRC the new default is like long-press-power-and-volume-down or some garbage like that to show the power menu.

Android phones have lockdown mode too. Hold the power button to show the shutdown menu and click lockdown.

Eventually somebody is going to use textbots to DDOS wikipedia with subtle propaganda (if they’re not already doing that) and it will be impossible to protect without completely locking it down so that only established users can edit.

Laws are only real if they’re enforced.

Isn’t the antichrist supposed to be a charismatic leader?

Geforce 3060, and yes. Sometimes my primary screen gets locked at my secondary screen’s framerate. The whole OS is especially wonky after wake from sleep, I often have to restart Firefox and Cinnamon after wake. WebGL things in Firefox are especially finicky. The panel-applet-spice things are horrendously single-threaded, some of lock the whole UI regularly.

I’m going to try some other Debian-based OS in the hopes that this is just Mint+Cinnamon and not the state-of-the-art.

I tried Mint and it’s just too buggy to use.

Lemmy blocking is worthless anyways it’s just a mute

Hooray for crime!
