Why? They’ve inspired devs through so many incredible design choices. Even the terrible-to-play NES classics laid groundwork for epic titles and legacies later on.

Some phones can get hotter (which is bad for battery health) when charging wirelessly.

What’s wrong with https://lmstudio.ai/ or https://jan.ai/ for offline, private, FOSS use?

Maybe this is the Great Filter alongside microplastics.

Plus, one could start for free; it doesn’t need to be yourusername [dot] com!

Hmm, now that makes me wonder if there’s such a thing as a FOSS web host—as open as one could be, anyway…

Man, I sure learned a lot about bouncer life from all this—like how it’s absolutely not for me! Kudos to you and your group for your collective work, and stay safe out there; no more fractured ribs!

Don’t tempt me… or else I’ll have to take you down with my SPAS-12!

Huh, what’s that? Maybe I did this so long ago that I don’t remember before I started getting big into privacy.

I haven’t found my communities yet and most of which are kinda inactive. Some having only a monthly post, others even none at all

Interestingly enough, I made a post in a community that hadn’t had any posts in months, yet it racked up dozens of comments in just a day or two. People are generally more reactive than proactive, which is why content creators reign.

Meanwhile, just last week: Battery breakthrough as 99.99% of lithium extracted from old cells

True, fair! ∆ (Oops, wrong platform.)

Wow, that sounds like that could be a movie already! Or a documentary, hmm… “Dat Bouncer Life”… It’d be the first of its kind in the world, no?

Take down Reddit ≠ turn into Reddit

Different Lemmy denizen here: for a long time I was quite sucked into Soldat, though I haven’t touched it in a decade. Been thinking about it as of late, though…

But lemmy.ml is evil!

We’re not? I’d love to see this take down Reddit, as miraculous as that’d be.

Hmm, I wonder if Betterbird has solved that problem… I’ve actually only ever used webmail as I didn’t understand the benefit of a desktop platform—until these (increasingly) privacy-invasive times!

Fascinating, thanks. This is like the ad-focused counterpart to that one AI image generation-harming tool, Nightshade.

no mercy for surveillance capitalists!

There, all fixed now.

Right, so I’m wondering what client that is.
