At some point I will but I’m not currently ready to make that transition. My friend and I are using Duolingo together and the social aspect plus the familiarity of the structure have been really helpful

They walked back the ai thing (at least that’s my understanding about it, I think there was a statement about it, not that that means much) but it’s very clear it wont be something that’s likely to work for me long term

But for the time being the structure that it provides and its format has helped me build a routine and actually stay pretty consistent, and I don’t think I’m at a place yet where I can transition away from it

But I have checked out the Foss options and there were some neat supplemental tools on f-droid, and at some point I’ll go through the play store and try out direct alternatives

This seems like it’ll break things like revanced, which honestly makes me sad mostly for Duolingo :(

Really hope folks find a way of spoofing this too. I’m hoping to switch to a custom ROM in the future and this doesn’t bode super well

Curious if you’re running the comic font for accessibility reasons. It’s not my taste aesthetically but I’ve heard its great for folks with dyslexia

Lovely pannel! Font might not be my cup of tea but it’s a great looking setup!

That’s the kinda shit that makes me wanna scream and put my head through the drywall 😅 I dunno why, but this specific kinda tech issue just gets me tilted faster than anything else lol

Lmao

Yeah, as someone with a circadian rythm disorder DST time changes kinda destroy me. Every single year, twice a year.

I’m hoping the US manages to get rid of it, we had a bill to do just that get unexpectedly far, before stalling out I think :/

Sending love from the US, y’all take care :)

That’s very fair! I was concerned by that video too, though I would point out that if I remember right, the games in that video don’t work on non-steamdeck devices including if you install steamos on a laptop or desktop

There kind of is though. I’m not here to argue it’s enough to unseat windows but it is markedly different

From a technical standpoint it’s just another linux distro with some nice tweaks for gaming but from a human perspective it has brand recognition, familiarity, a known company behind it. Those things do really matter for adoption. No idea if that’d be anywhere near enough, I’m not inclined to make predictions, but it does have explicit advantages over consumers hearing they can get a laptop with Ubuntu or fedora on it

You should cross-post to [email protected]! Its not a perfect fit but this is such a beautiful object, I’m sure folks there would love to see it!

That is one of the strangest looking creatures I’ve ever seen in my entire life. I love him.

Oh nice! I use firefox on mobile so I can still use extensions (just have to enable developer settings), but that’s super handy for folks who don’t have that option!

You might like the indie wiki buddy extension, it can automatically redirect you to a independent wiki when you go to fandom (if there is one), remove fandom search results, and redirect you to a ‘breeze wiki’ page if there’s no fandom alternative

(Breeze wiki is an alternative frontend for fandom, much like invidious for YouTube. It guts all the ads and banners and garbage, and gives you a much simpler wiki page)

The Australian researchers and doctors behind the operation announced on Wednesday that the implant had been an “unmitigated clinical success” after the man lived with the device for more than 100 days before receiving a donor heart transplant in early March.

Just in case anyone else also found the title ambiguous regarding whether “100 days” meant he died 😅

Works in brave too!

I use !gi a lot because brave image search sucks lol

Is he a creep because of the google data privacy stuff or something else?

Huh, that’s super cool!!

If anyone from lemmings.world could report this I’d appreciate it, I’m not exactly sure who reports go to, so I’m not sure if my report will end up in front of the mod of the instance this account is on

Not the person you replied to, but I’d like to offer another perspective

There’s a difference between describing things, and giving someone credit.

Hitler loving his dogs doesn’t make him not responsible for heinous crimes. It seems odd to me to suggest we not acknowledge that that’s what people who do monstrous things look like

They’re messy and complicated and have traits most would assess as good, and in many ways that only adds to their danger. They don’t look like storybook villians, they look like human beings. They love dogs. At times they say reasonable, even compelling things. They make art. They had childhoods, and families, and loved ones. They suffer and bleed and experience joy like any human being does. And the closer you look, the more human they get.

And then they kill 17 million people.

I appreciate the camaraderie displayed by the fact that his pants are also stuffed with okra

They’re in it together 😔
