This guy. He’s right.

A good taco. Actually, I think the enchilada guy was right. What he said.

Be in Siberia, Alaska, NWT, maybe inside a meat locker. Then head in her direction. Then leave her alone!

Would’ve: fine. Would have: fine. Would of: me go mental! Why do people do this?! Argh!

What’s the most niche Lemmy community you subscribe to? (Mine is https://lemmy.world/c/compactphones )

That Pac Man isn’t eating pellets, he’s eating burritos, but because if you look at a burrito face on, it kinda looks round, and the graphics at the time were so limited… Pac Man is secretly shilling Mucho Burrito (or whatever your local Mexican fast food joint of choice is.)

Cantook used to be called Aldiko, and it was literally the first ebook Reader I ever got for Android. I don’t know if it’s the best, but it opens epubs and lets me set dark mode and use the volume buttons as page turn, and doesn’t gum up e-ink with animations, so it’s ideal for the Hisense. I don’t know why it only has 2/5.

I have a Hisense A5 that’s a crap phone, but Cantook side loaded and it’s the best e-reader I’ve ever owned, bar none. I can use it for podcasts too, although I usually just use my regular phone for that these days.

Good to know! Legal, non-DRM? Do they have popular artists?

I literally got a tech support call last week asking, “How do I legally get MP3s to put on this new MP3 player I just got?” I was kinda stumped. “Umm… Rip a CD?”

Huh. Today I learned. I avoided snaps because Firefox snap took so dang long to load, and Firefox flatpak just launched…

Flatpaks: NOT Ubuntu’s containerized deliverable. They use snaps. Flatpaks are more Fedora’s thing. I know Mint uses flatpaks, and Silver blue relies heavily on them. Snaps v Flatpaks are like Coke v Pepsi. It’s all just sugar water, but people care, for reasons.

Tailscale: a VPN -esque service that lets you connect networks together in fun and interesting ways. For instance: I can use tailscale to access my home network from my phone!

Thank you, that was very nice! But I do love my car, too.

Prisencolinensinainciusol! That song rocks.

VROOOoooOOOMMM! Hee hee! I got a hybrid standard, and I will drive it until it literally falls apart (or I do.)

Guys… “sudo.” Four characters.

I agree, and I take it this far: “I worked hard and paid for my house, why should some lazy loafer get housing for free? I paid 24,000$ in tuition, why should kids get free college?” I think that, at some point, one guy has to be the first guy to benefit from progress, and all the people who didn’t benefit just have to suck it up. I would 100% pay a much higher tax rate if it meant that homelessness was gone, hunger was gone, kids got free education… I’m Canadian, so I don’t need to say this about health care. Yeah, I paid an awful lot of mortgage, but if someone else gets a free house? Good!
