gonna kiss myself with a cement brick if they let zuckerberg buy it and turn it into the same UX nightmare that reels is

“prompt engineering” in itself is such an embarrassing term for the act of saying “computer uhhh show me epic boobies!!”

like that joke about calling dishwashing “submerged porcelain technician” but unironically

sad that twitter users will jump to literally anything except mastodon. wake me up in 15 years when bluesky finishes its twitter elon musk cycle and it’ll be like i took a 12 second nap

very simple, i just host files on an external hdd on my macbook (which i use all day anyway) over plex, then watch through apple tv. i tried Infuse in the past, but their library and metadata handling is just atrocious (and there is like a 5+ year old active forum thread of people repeatedly begging the devs to allow “custom shows” through manually created .nfo files, but i guess the devs care more about superficial UI changes and abandoning their previous one-time purchase option in favor of subscriptions)

fuck, my poor innocent phone number has been tainted for little reason

but requires a phone number!

i sometimes take an extra trip through the roundabout if some asshole is driving way too close to my rear and refuses to overtake

true!

been hearing praise for kagi for ages in underground communities like this and admire what they’re trying to do with the orion browser (although that one is still too buggy for me to use daily), gonna give it a shot now. cheers

this has gotta be the correct answer. it’s impossible to find anything written by a human on search engines these days unless you specifically click a forum link

willing to bet google is garbage now because of all the AI-run “blogs” that post unhelpful idiotic filler “articles” on every topic under the sun

edit: i despise this shit so much that i made this dissection of a bullshit AI article: https://i.imgur.com/Hr1wffj.png

this is the most reddit post i’ve seen on lemmy

i choose to opt for the most convenient service (currently spotify even though ceo daniel ek is a lunatic who invests in AI military tech), and then i buy vinyls/merch/tickets/bandcamp copies directly from the artists to actually support them. if you’re not into spotify then apple music and tidal both work fine with some caveats

usually they’re pretty basic but it varies a lot from game to game :) my dark souls 1 note looks something like this:

next move

• [ordered to-do list, smaller non-boss things i am currently trying to do]

latent to-do

• [list of things i want to do eventually but don’t need right now]

[checklist of bosses ordered by route]

sorry for not just slapping a screenshot in here, english is not my native language so it probably wouldn’t be very useful

this is just one of many things but i like to write down game notes while i’m playing, like what i intend to do next and things i need to remember for future reference. very handy if you’re like me and juggle between games in waves, so you can always see where you left off mentally

who are you talking to

that’s DuckDuckGo and “Names Database” CEO*, folks. PLEASE do not look to this man as a beacon for anything privacy-related, even when he says something true.

*arr services

it’s been years and the naming convention didn’t click for me until now. that’s hilarious, thanks for the giggle

i’m just over here waiting for the federation to happen so i can spy on Threads stuff from the safety (and sanity) of my own mastodon instance ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

i imagine it’s just very straightforward based on your app store region, because if you spoof that then you’re probably already breaking some ToS so you have no legal ground to stand on
