  • Just read most of the comments here and I feel nauseous about this.

    My job encourages instagram use.

    I think the only way around having our devices spy on our spoken face to face conversations is to have a mobile device with a removable battery. Who remembers the HTC EVO and all the phones like those? Anyone know of a good phone that offers the removable battery?

    mbasic.facebook.com no longer defeats their demand one use their messenger app to read DM on mobile. Anyone know a workaround for mobile to get private FB messages with their messenger app?

    I don’t use Facebook much but when I do it’s because my gramma is sending me a private message. I refuse to download their other app. Please help?

    Discussions in the past about not being able to access digital gaming content that users had paid for...

    I have a recollection of some long threads about some companies discontinuing gaming content and members of Lemmy having strong feelings and evidence about all this. I have been trying to search these older threads up but I can't find them. Does anyone remember these conversations? What companies were involved? Games? How much data was basically disappeared?

  • I don’t really know anything about grey Jay. I just know how to create my own archives of files and use them as I please. I’m not sure why I would need any kind of app to access my files — except for the player.

  • I’ve got a collection of classic iPods — the ones with the clickwheel.

    Yes — the files can take time to download and organize and curate but in the end — if I need a thousand hours of audio I can rely on… well, it’s easy and fail proof.

    Armed soldiers in mountains near LA

    Decades ago my friends and I stole a car in Los Angeles and took a drive into the mountains just outside of LA. I was in high school and this was BEFORE all celular proliferation so we didn’t know where to go or what to do — we were shit thieves and one of us saw keys in a car and we jumped on it. Anyway — we ended up heading up a what I remember as a mountain road — and it couldn’t have been where Griffith park is or the Hollywood hills — likely, now that I think about it, we were so scared where headed east on the 210.

    We figured we wouldn’t get caught if we just took the car into the mountains and drove home in the morning. Kidsarefuckingstupid

    Anyway — the road we were on turned into a dirt road and we came around a bend and our headlight lit up two soldiers in full gear — helmets and automatic rifles so we stopped and they started screaming:

    TURN AROUND AND LEAVE!! Leave now!!!

    We left.

    And got close enough to home to ditch the car and walk.

    But this isn’t about our idiot jo

    Difference with "Select" and "Copy" availability between browsers

    It is my hope that Privacy is the community for this. I think freedom to use browsers the way we intend is a privacy issue.

    We have likely all seen or heard that the “Select All” option has been removed from Safari — don’t hate me, I won’t be doing apple again.

    That said, manual SELECTING of text still exists.

    Here’s the privacy issue:

    When I SELECT a small amount of text, I am offered the COPY option.

    When I SELECT a few hundred words, even at Gutenberg, I’m given zero time to hit the copy button.

    Just now I shifted to Firefox and had zero problem doing what I needed to do.

    Could other interested folks confirm this SAFARI bug/irritant/annoyance?

    Here’s the page I was using:

    https://www.gutenberg.org/cache/epub/766/pg766.txt

    In safari, check what happens if you try to copy five words vs. 300 words.

    What's the best tool for discovering what your IP is when you are using TOR?

    I've been using some available on the Internet but recently they all look the same and they all ask for CAPTYA which is an obvious attempt to obtain ones true IP.

    I'm new to privacy and hoping to learn more.

    Ubuntu is my daily driver but I'm thinking of setting this up on my never used Raspberry PI -- anyone using it? How tough do you think it will be as a first project?

    I love that folks use these archive.org links like this one here:

    https://web.archive.org/web/20231125030342/https://www.kansascity.com/news/local/crime/article281901303.html

    How are they finding these or making them? Let’s say I’m reading NYTimes or something, what do I do to link to the same article but archived?

    Forgive me, but…

    It’s my hope to see unity and cohesion is the Lemmy-verse. Looks like [email protected] has over 39k subscribers.

    Is there a way that this same conversation can “merge” with that one so that this one can be archived there?

    How are Lemmy instances coping with two great ideas that might have come up at the same time but one has a lot more traction?

    And true story: I’m not trying to start anything. I’m sincerely trying to promote Lemmy and perfect it — this would just be sanding the edges?
