There’s a few alternatives to reddit pro tools that let you do this. I forget which one I had installed before but it had some basic tagging.

The topics weren’t an issue. The issue is more with Lemmy’s sorting algorithm not being great.

There’s a lot more than just two temperature sensors inside your phone. Your screen has sensors, there’s a few chassis sensors, your CPU has probably 30+ inside of it etc.

The pixels is external which is unique I guess.

Man I’m surprised Samsung didn’t dominate this list. My galaxy S4 was filled with so many garbage features that I never used.

Samsung and their garbageware was like 50% of the reason why I switched to iOS for my main phone.

Micro center has been selling the 10th Gen. for like $270 and it’s a nice upgrade over the 9. Plus USB c is cool. It’s been out for a while so accessories shouldn’t cost too much. But last year when I bought mine the only things I liked weren’t cheap.

Also the killed the folio cover which is stupid. I loved easily being able to pop on and off the cover so I don’t get it all nasty.

I think I’ve blocked one or two people on lemmy. Only because they like to spam posts all at once and it will fill up an entire page with just their shit.

Outside of that I’ve never blocked anyone, nor do I ever really want to block anyone.

The kernel is linux. From wikipedia: An operating system (OS) is system software that manages computer hardware and software resources, and provides common services for computer programs.

Linux being designed to work with so many things (and so many things designed to work with linux) all combined make the OS. This is also where the famous quote comes from. https://www.gnu.org/gnu/incorrect-quotation.en.html

Pro or Home? It looks like home is going to try to force you into a microsoft account a lot harder than pro. There are a couple of tricks to bypass it in the OOBE. But if you do sign into an MS account you can go into settings and there’s a button somewhere to switch to a local account. You’d just have to seek that out and it’s a pain.

I actually really liked both windows 8 and Vista too.

8 was slimmed down and optimized vs 7. Bootup time on my HDD equipped machine halved, performance was better, and the search was so good I never actually saw the start menu because I’d just blindly hit enter and it opened what I wanted.

Vista had a rough start because they basically had to start fresh with drivers. But I bought a nice new machine about a year after it came out and it ran it flawlessly. Aero looked (and still looks) so cool, and XP was just a crusty old OS by then, let alone 2014 when it finally lost support.

I gotta be honest, I actually really like windows 11.

Recall is awful and I hope enough pressure keeps it away (or at least as something you have to manually turn on). But besides that it’s mostly just windows 10 but better. I get better battery life, better performance, I actually mostly like the UI changes etc.

Also does nobody remember all of the hate for 10 when it first came out?

Those countries probably didn’t pay 5.5 billion dollars for TSMC to build a new facility in their country.

Multiple sources of production.

We learned during concentrating all of your production in one small country wasn’t a good idea. Plus having multiple sources has always been suggested in case anything goes wrong with one company you can still have some production.

I gotta be honest. With an older CPU like that I’d take the security risk for that extra performance.

Kids don’t care about the rating system, it’s the parents that see the label and second guess their decision.

Is there a reason why you have hyperthreading off? On an older machine like that I’d want all the performance I can get.

Netbird does some things better than Tailscale. But honestly tailscale is just so much better. It takes a much more “it just works” approach which for our office we much prefer. It was so much more fiddly and just awful.

Netbird also kept pissing me off because we’d have a route to the office, and if you’re in the office it would just kill all network traffic as it tries to go to itself instead of the default gateway and just never works. Tailscale kinda has the same issue, but it doesn’t end up in an endless loop it just routes all your traffic in the office through the VPN.

You’ve always been able to do that. Settings > messages > text message forwarding

Everyone has to be RCS.

It’s like imesssge but with non iOS devices

I paid for the registration for my car in cash because I didn’t feel like buying checks to write a $25 bill.

MFers apparently charge a fee for cash transactions and never told me. Since I mailed it out and the state of Misery is awful it took 8 months before someone finally told me what I needed to do (send $26) and finally I got my plates.
