It's a nice gimmick and sometimes fun but probably not worth it given the state of the planet already.
Gemini a no go for me just for the simple fact you need to unlock your phone to get a response. At the point I'm lifting my phone it's easier to just do whatever myself.
I remember seeing that gif pretty much right after the attacks. I don't know of it was fake or not but it did show the plane launch something into the building about a second before it hit.
I even remember the site I saw it on.
Google's gone full evil between this and all the YouTube ruining.
I've bought apps on Google Play where I've had to download the apk elsewhere because of restrictions like scoped storage making them almost unusable.
Neutron music players one example where they have to keep an apk on their own site to get round Google restrictions. as scoped storage is about 20 times slower not to mention a real hassle. PPSSPP is another example and probably a lot of emulators were folder access is kind of important.
My opinion I'd say lose chrome if you absolutely need a chromium browser use thorium any other time use Firefox or a fork of it like Librewolf.
The reason I say Thorium is because this is in the readme.
Manifest V2 support force enabled (Starting in M128 they are experimenting with disabling MV2). It will be completely removed in M136 (10 months from now), and when they finally do remove the actual code for loading MV2 extensions, it will be restored, because F**k Google! Even if it takes a crapload of work, I am determined to restore it, because without UBlock Origin working properly in Thorium, I wouldn't even want to use my own browser!
How has nobody said Connect yet, I tried most of the other clients people mentioned and settled on connect.
This is after using Sync Pro for years on Reddit the pricing of the lemmy version just put me right off to the point I'll admit I haven't even tried it but then again I'm not interested in anything that puts ads on an adless service and I also will never try it as long as this is the case.
Connect is free and the developer is great
I've never had a Facebook account but been questioned by UK police who demanded my non existent Facebook account maybe a dozen times.
Unfortunately I'm now on benifit having lost my job and they keep bring up damn Facebook and trying to make me make an account.
There's something badly wrong here, don't use Facebook imo I honestly think it's some kind of trap at this point.
Yeah I'm going to Summon Nintendo to explain their plans on how to cook a good Burger.
I honestly don't get it, to me I just see user IDs I haven't the slightest clue what race someone is or isn't on here. I vote solely based on whether they make a good point or a bad point.
I think this is going to continue to the point we have AI adblockers that edit the files free of ads for us in real-time. Then hopefully the technology jumps to Televisions etc.
Google's really helping it along in that direction.
One of My strongest memories is watching a documentary where they claimed dogs don't dream, and my dogs directly in front of the TV making little sleep barks and moving legs deep into some dream.
Let's be honest we are animals and the rest aren't all that far behind us.
