Sans-serif fonts predate the internet, but not by much. Their popularity started in the 1920s because they look “cleaner” and more modern. I tend to agree with this sentiment, I wouldn’t want to look at serif fonts all day long.

The English language loves ambiguity. Look at all the words with multiple meanings yet spelled the same way, even though we haven’t exhausted all 3-letter word possibilities.

Taking some magnesium supplement will fix not dreaming right up!

iPhone 18 Pro Max is equipped with a Qualcomm modem instead of the C2 chip in the U.S.

I’ve beenntrying O t FUTO for the last week and have not been very impressed with it over Heliboard. The autocorrect predixtion is either way too aggressive for some words, or just doesn’t bother for other words. I mean I could say the same thing for Heliboard, but that tends towork just a little bit better for me. Btw I didn’t manually correct any typos in this reply, that’s all on FUTO.

Is this to conserve electricity? I don’t understand why it needs insulating, mine can handle gallons of water uninsulated.

GIT tracks changes, which doesn’t strike me as something that often happens with messaging. Unless you just always replace your last message with the new one, I guess, then sure!

Not having kids? Straight to jail.

I use a few MA apps, none of which have declared the internet permission. Nor would I ever want them to have internet access.

But a few MA apps actually do require internet to work for their intended purpose, and I will never install one of those out of fear all the MA apps “secretly” talk/share/IPC my data with eachother, effectively granting all the non-internet apps the internet permission.

I’m not saying this is happening. But I’m also not about to delve into the entire codebase to find out.

Maximize gains for the short term only, and screw the long term. Of course!

I’ve always used Server Superstore, the prices are decent and never had an issue with any unit.

It stores large chunks of data the size of the stripe width. This could easily be large enough to contain a whole text file, and enough of binaries to reasonably guess aa to what they are. Encryption may slow down IO, but if you even remotely worry about seizure you should absolutely be using it.

He didn’t like eating human food the first 100 times, maybe he’ll like this next dish though.

I think showing tracker info is still a good, insightful thing. Sure, giving an impression one piece of software is better than another because it has less trackers is a bad thing. Users that care about functionality will vet apps on that regard, same with security and privacy conscious users. Some users just like the app to be pretty, and if they ignore everything else but make a decision based in tracker count, all the better in the long run.

Been using zfs and btrfs for so long I forgot ext4 was a thing. Oh my.

Back when rooting was all the rage I tinkered with hosting various services. It just didn’t make much sense for such an underpowered device, amongst other reasons (battery swelling).

I did use an old phone to “host” a game automation. One of those “idle clicker” / RPG games since I’m so lazy. After about 2 months the battery swelled and popped the back cover off. That was the end to that idea…

The Zoop website lists a bunch of forked projects. But the site owner also claims that they made all of them… sooo…

While it doesn’t address your security concerns, using a VPN does allow you to circumvent resolution restrictions on certain mobile plans (i.e. streaming limited to 720p)
