I mean, it’s not usual to find more modern books at a thrift store. Yeah a lot of them are old, but newer ones are there.

Even among the old ones there are some that are sought after, like Betty Crocker’s Cooky Book. Best snickerdoodles of my life.

I found the setting for showing a user’s instance, but still no setting for showing the instance of communities.

On Android, former Relay for Reddit user.

Right now I have SEVEN lemmy apps on my home screen as I figure out which I like best. So far I keep going back to Sync the most.

Boost’s animations suck. It takes too long to show the post list after swiping away an image and the whole screen goes black, it’s a bit jarring.

Liftoff works well but it’s ugly.

Jerboa isn’t very customizable and the post list doesn’t feel dense enough.

Voyager literally does not tell you what instance the community you’re viewing is on.

I haven’t touched Thunder in a while but I see they’ve updated quite a bit with a lot more customization. I remember older versions being nice, so I’ll give it a try again.

Connect is about the same as Liftoff, works well but kinda ugly. Admittedly not as ugly though.

It’s not a lunar eclipse, it’s an annular solar eclipse.

Not as exciting as a regular solar eclipse. The moon is in a farther position of its orbit to not be able to fully cover the sun.

Most pawn shops deal primarily with guns, tools, and jewelry. You’ll also find all kinds of electronics and collectibles, some places may have furniture too.

Not enough people (including you) don’t know that “Nazi” is an abbreviation for “national socialist”.

This meme is about telling Nazis we’re not interested in their BS.

Porcelain usually isn’t glazed and is made from a finer particulate clay allowing it to be smooth and non porous on its own. It’s the cheaper ceramics that rely on the glaze to be water proof that are prone to this problem.

If your dishes aren’t getting unusually hot in the microwave then they’re fine.

RCS wasn’t originally supposed to run on data, it only does now because carriers didn’t want to support it natively.

If the glaze on a ceramic plate has micro cracks on it, it can cause water to get inside the plate, which then gets hot in the microwave. Throw it away, it can grow bacteria.

The other day I launched an old game and got met with an error, something about directX9 and missing a redistributable file or something. Decided not to fuck with it.

Yesterday I launched it again to take a closer look at the error message to see if I could fix it. No error message, game booted without issues.

My confusion.

Samsung and Google are just now getting around to supporting it

Hey now, I’ve been rocking RCS for three years. The only reason it took so long to begin with is because Google was trying to get service providers to implement it themselves. Google finally said fuck it and started doing it themselves iMessage style and then providers started playing along.

You’ll likely bottleneck in most games, but it’ll work. If you run into stuttering, limit your fps.

There are newer AI tools that can do text accurately. Usually it’s with text provided in the prompt though, so it’s arguably not AI generated, just AI placed.

The unreadable AI text you’re familiar with is done without the AI really knowing what text is, and they’re just making something that looks vaguely like it. It’s the same way they normally handle any kind of object or shape. Newer tools are built specifically for text, so it actually is readable and makes sense.

I got 12/20 and most of the ones I got wrong are the ones I was second guessing myself on.

I wear boxers and they like to wear out right at the bottom of the crotch on either side of the seam. My girlfriend calls them poop holes.

Also why is it so God damned hard to find knit boxers nowadays? Almost everything at the store is boxer briefs, which I hate because they ride up my leg. And when I do find boxers, half of them are a woven cotton that feels like a plastic tarp.

My first was dingdong86@aol and then dudeguy2202@yahoo

Today I use something more professional, last name + my first and middle initials.

That sounds like roommates with extra sex- I mean steps.

I think it’s important for people to learn how to manage/customize notifications whether it be on the OS level or through each app individually.

I keep a lot of things as silent notifications, so they pop up but don’t grab my attention. They’ll be there when I look at my phone. I think texts/calls are the only thing that makes noise on my phone at all.

I’ve used Relay for years, first tried it when it was still called Reddit News.

I’ll admit that I’ve been browsing Reddit a bit with the official app and it’s a garbage experience. Like, there’s no /r/all? Wtf.

Anyway, it’s just pushing me more onto Lemmy. It’s slowly turning into a viable alternative as engagement grows.
