Ah, thanks for the correction!

If I want my fridge enshittified I’ll bag up my own poop and put it in the freezer, thankyouverymuch

Didn’t George Carlin have a bit about how all marketing people should just kill themselves?

Wait until your bank website/app login requires a captcha with the magic eye thing! Bwahahaha.

A wild ‘D’ suddenly appears! (that’s about all I know about Pokemon…)

“AI” hallucinations are not a problem that can be fixed in LLMs. They are an inherent aspect of the process and an inevitable result of the fact that LLMs are mostly probabilistic engines, with no supervisory or introspective capability, which actual sentient beings possess and use to fact-check their output. So there. :p

Search for v2.79 (if memory serves) on oldversion.com for the last ‘good’ version of classic winamp, and the streamripper plugin is still floating around somewhere on the 'net…

An absolutely ancient tool I used to use was WinAmp (v2.x) with the Streamripper plugin. It would save out each song from a shoutcast or icecast station to a file with the artist/album/title/track like a champ. Maybe not quite what you want (won’t do youtube) but there are a ton of great indie stations on the vorbis icecast network…

Perhaps someone could write an ‘adb loopback’ app – get that into the official app store, and said app would then squirt other .apk files through adb on the phone to itself, thus sideloading it.

Couldn’t they just use a Windows VM on Linux to run the build tests?

Not that I care, the only vim I use occasionally is under MSYS64 (I think… maybe it’s just plain vi).

No, the 5T doesn’t sadly. The 128gb model I find roomy enough… but if you absolutely need an SD socket I guess that rules it out.

They’re not new, but if you can get a Oneplus 5T or some models after that, they run LineageOS fine. With Magisk even my banking apps work. All save the finerprint reader work well. Sadly I hear OnePlus is going to stop allowing unlocking in new models.

We already pay with all of the personal data they steal from us (adblocks or no), and all the lifetimes wasted watching ads for those who don’t or can’t block them (and the ad revenue paid to them by corps who buy those ads) so no, Google doesn’t deserve our money for Premium.

Same thing as when cable TV was new, they said paying for it was to require fewer ads… how long did that last?

This is very ‘meta’ – we should perhaps start a lemmy community to discuss what sites and groups to form, to use it on other sites. There could even be a lemmy group to comment on lemmy… or something :p

Here, I created a group for lemmy discussions! Hah.

Neat, thanks.

I just browsed a few of the component projects on github and it seems they’re BSD-licensed…

Years ago https://web.hypothes.is/ used to let one annotate any website, but it appears now they are focused on only student/educational usage.

There was a plugin that allowed highlighting text on any web page, adding comments, and having threaded conversations based on groups… it was kind of cool, too bad it didn’t take off.

EDIT 1: I’ll be darned, the Chrome extension still exists… https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/hypothesis-web-pdf-annota/bjfhmglciegochdpefhhlphglcehbmek

EDIT 2: I found my old account and the test annotations I’d done (and group definitions) still work! Guess this is still a working thing, worth exploring more.

Use a straw if available…

I feel your frustration… though a decent phone w/o locked Android shouldn’t require global thermonuclear war I hope!

I stress about what phone, if any, I’ll be able to install a non-bloatware, rooted, vanila OS on once the models my wife & I have become too ‘obsolete’. (OnePlus 5T with LineageOS).

WTF kill this with fire.

Have you tried yout.com? Take the URL of any vid, and just delete the ‘ube’ from it. It only allows a few DLs per day but it works.
