F-Droid and Samsung "Auto Blocker"
  • Does the built in security not stop that on its own? I don't think you can push an apk install to an android device that is locked and expect it to complete, especially if you don't have usb debugging enabled.

    Unless you're saying they forced you to unlock the device prior to them absconding with it?

  • The forest center near me removed the bins. .. From their café/picnic area
  • Idk, that was before my time and it just seems common sense to me to not litter 🤷‍♂️ the trash doesn't just disappear and it will become someone else's problem.

    It feels to me a lot of people don't care if it becomes someone else's problem and that mentality goes through all parts of their lives.

  • Be kind to your elders
  • Is it really so hard to just stay somewhat connected to the world around you?

    It's not like it was a rapid shift, this shit has been progressing for DECADES and some just refused to learn. I've talked to 30 yos who can't do anything beyond basic computer usage, and I've seen a 80 year old who was extremely with it and troubleshooting with me.

    It's not an age problem, it's a lack of effort

  • What's the best way to learn Linux?
  • This, I learned out of necessity when I was a teen, parents were divorcing and my dad only had an extremely old laptop, it was literally unusable on XP, was lookin around online on how to possibly speed it up and found Linux.

  • When building a home server, could a used/cheap PC do the job?
  • I use my previous desktop and a rando openbox thinclient I picked up at Bestbuy for like $250 in a proxmox cluster. The desktop does the heavy lifting on stuff like jellyfin transcoding, immich ML, or just general fucking about with things that require a more powerful GPU (got a 3080ti in there)

    The thinclient handles all the lighter stuff that needs to be constantly available, like my traefik instance, dns/dhcp server, etc

  • Samsung's handheld prototype delivers folding phone screens to Switch-like gaming hardware, and I am absolutely here for it
  • Idk, I've had the fold 4 for since launch, took the internal protector off as soon as it started peeling in the center and it's been absolutely fine. I use my stylus rarely unfortunately but it hasn't obviously scratched the screen at all (I am a bit ocd about those things and would have likely noticed)

    I had the fold 2 before that and similarly took the screen protector off within a few months and didn't run into what you're describing either. I DID have the hinge break where it wouldn't open flat anymore but that was absolutely from my dropping it onto cement lol. When I swapped it for the 4 they still gave me the good condition value.

  • Name my homelab! What should my hostnames be?
  • I bought a thin client basically to add as a node for my proxmox homelab, I named it smol

    My wife saw eventually and was upset I didn't follow our normal naming convention of Bender-adjacent characters.

  • Hi there

    Read through some of your posts and thought it was an interesting idea.

    I'm not much of a programmer myself, played around a bit in Java when I was younger for Runescape Private Servers but never really able to get into coding fully. I have done some light photoshopping/GIMP and used to play around with video editing software. I like to think I'm pretty technology inclined as I'm the "pc repair" person for my family/friends.

    I like linux but mostly run Windows because gaming and ease of use. Though where I work I'm the "Linux guy" (not saying much tbh as a lot of people know literally nothing about linux).

    I play around with music production in FL Studio and Ableton, not great at it but I have some stuff online with a thousand listens or so https://blend.io/zvyyr

    Politically I'm very left (for the US at least), I like communism in theory and have read a good bit about it (not as much as others who are very into it though). Supported Bernie Sanders in 2016 and 2020.

    I'm intelligent enough to know that I know very little about a lot.

    I'm sure you could find more about me online, I've never been especially private but moved away from standard social media a while ago.

    OK question, why is it called "she hacked you?"

    Emojis and Lemmy

    Does anyone else think having emojis as a response to a comment/thread would be a neat addition instead of only upvote/downvote?

    Reddit seemed to sorta do that with awards but thats not quite what I'm suggesting.

    Something similar to GitHub for instance, except we keep the upvote downvote system as-is.

    This would hopefully discourage the use of upvote/downvote as a "I like/dislike this" button while also adding the ability to more accurately express the emotion the post/comment illicited

    Additionally, there are a lot of people who are mostly just lurkers and have no desire to post, but they want to be able to emote further then just a upvote/downvote but DON'T want to actually post a comment like "I love this" or "You're so right" or even just commenting an emoji, because making a comment is a whole extra action that makes them visible, opens up to comments or upvotes/downvotes.

    !
