Yeah… but I think it’s too late for Mastodon to be popular. Bluesky is already at the tipping point.

Mastodon just needed to sign you up to their own default server, power users could sign up to different ones and they would have still got the regulars in the door. Mastodon also needed twitter feature parity, something Bluesky also managed much faster.

Once people are in and settled, then they would start asking questions about that URL after their username, people would slowly become comfortable with the federation and understand it.

Obsidian but with syncthing here, just syncs the files across my devices.

With AMD supporting their sockets for long periods of time, there’s -1 reasons to buy Intel.

Any chromium browser is with a flag enabled.

Just switch to Firefox or a derivative already guys.

Them being portable makes them actually useful though for me, unless there was a way to use them from a phone to login to a website on a desktop/other device.

Being able to login into a password manager and use a passkey is great, passkeys need to become mainstream to get everyone away from passwords, but they can’t be locked locally onto one platform or you have issues. The regular joe won’t be backing them up from their iPhones or whatever.

I don’t see why a local option wouldn’t exist though, perhaps they will come once passkeys have matured further.

Or more likely, they will just move the domain to be a generic TLD instead of a country code TLD, due to it’s popularity in the tech space.

GMG are legitimate.

But Amazon will just replace them for free without any trouble, which is why I tend to go to Amazon for sensitive hardware, for the peace of mind.

The last time I purchased something from another electronics store, it was faulty and they tried their absolute hardest to refuse to take it back and then still wanted me to pay for a courier to return it - congratulations, you lost a customer.

Jorji?

I come online to somewhat get away from the ‘real world’, the last thing I want to do is engage in small talk with the local population. You know what kind of people would end up the most vocal on there too, so fuck no.

Wouldn’t be too bad if they just host threads and abide by ActivityPub without getting hands on, but they clearly want to shape it how they want.

I knew intel have been doing horribly recently, but they are only $83.3B market cap, I had no idea they shit the bed this much.

What how? Intel is still huge compared to Qualcomm no?

Can we stop calling it AI?

Correct

Yeah, it sounds bad until you watch the video.

They are doing their jobs. but with limited manpower they have chosen not to stretch themselves even thinner by physically chasing a phone. As the article says, they try to be smarter about it.

Location isn’t that accurate, the phone was probably just traded in a car or in the street.

So the police get a call from the phone owner “yeah my phone location is on X street”, the police get down there, then what? Let’s say it was in a house, it’s rows of houses in London, do they knock on every door there and ask “hey have you stolen a phone?” in hopes the guy admits it? It could have been traded already so a description of someone might not be good enough.

I just read the whole article and it just re-iterates what I have just said. They recover a small amount of the phones because of how quick they move them after they have been stolen. It even says that the criminals “wrap stolen phones in tinfoil to block its signal”.

It’s easy to sit in your chair and say “just go over there and arrest them”, without even taking a moment to understand the logistics of tackling it.

Who is to say it was at an address and not just sold/handed off in the street? They don’t just take the phones to a house and pile them up, they will be sold on through fences rapidly and if they can’t reset them to resell to someone, they get sold for parts (hence why this one ended up in China).
