a_baby_duck,

It works most of the time, and they sort of addressed the main complaint I saw, which was with the infamy system. Definitely still has some major problems, but a lot of the hate is pretty overblown.

a_baby_duck,

Not sure if reverse image search would tell you acting useful, but it reminds me of the art from a comic called Fables.

a_baby_duck,

He has always been and will always be. R’lyeh Ftaghn.

a_baby_duck,

It’s a comic from 2011. Here’s the source: www.stickycomics.com/computer-update/

a_baby_duck,

I think it’s important to consider that the joke was made over a decade ago before getting upset that it hasn’t been accurate in over a decade.

But yeah, OP probably could have included a date in the title and avoided some of this.

Are phone notification LEDs still a thing?

Looking at all the features that older phones uses to have compared to newer ones, I never hear anyone talk about the removal of the notification LED. I personally really liked that feature, being able to see if I got an email, a text or missed a call without turning on my phone was awesome. My Samsung note 8 had this feature,...

a_baby_duck,

I think the problem that notification LEDs were designed to solve is just solved in other ways now, notably smart watches or the Always-On Display for OLED devices. Both consume more power than a notification LED would, but they also don’t require a dedicated physical space on the phone.

City can’t afford sidewalks, but the church gets a private dock.

a_baby_duck,

From the World of Tanks wiki page for the Tiger P (Porsche variant), so take this with a grain of salt, but:

On May 26, 1941, Adolf Hitler ordered Ferdinand Porsche and the Henschel company to develop prototypes of a new heavy tank. The prototypes were shown to the Führer on April 20, 1942. Manufacturing began, but the production run was cut short due to the complexity of the tank’s drive and control systems, and a shortage of the required copper. Later, 90 produced hulls were converted into Ferdinand tank destroyers.

AKA a republican. I’d be surprised if he were anything else.

a_baby_duck,

I love Gunship and had no idea this was coming out. Can’t wait to listen!

a_baby_duck,

Not familiar with the extension you mentioned, but you can refer to the screenshots in this article to see how you’d access the new translation feature.

Note that it’s based on Bergamot, which is the same engine used by the TranslateLocally extension. I’d expect these two to produce comparable translations, but I have no idea how they compare to TWP. You’d have to try it and find out.

SPEEDO SPEED BOY. WIND IS ON MY FACE!

a_baby_duck,

Porkbun, mostly for the cost, transparency, clean UI, and ease of use.

I’ve used GoDaddy, namecheap, and Google Domains in the past. GoDaddy is the only one I had a problem with, but Google sold to Squarespace recently, and I prefer porkbun to namecheap for the reasons listed above.

a_baby_duck,

Not saying you’re wrong, but I never had to create an account on my TCL TV running the Roku TV software. You can even choose an input to start up to, so I never even see the home screen ads.

Wouldn’t surprise me if it varies by model, but I’ve had no issues just having mine start up to a Fire Stick connected to my home Plex server (though Fire Stick comes with its own problems).

a_baby_duck,

Same, except with sports teams, communist subs, furry content, and “rule” memes.

Also the Prigozhin news yesterday occupying every third post because there are multiple posts on multiple communities across every instance highlights one of the big drawbacks to aggregation imo.

a_baby_duck,

You can say last filter instances with the “Connect” app if you’re on Android. Currently my favorite client compared to Jerboa, Sync, and Thunder.

a_baby_duck, (edited )

My understanding is they’re a Bluetooth device that do not have direct Internet access on their own; how is their location being updated if you’re not pairing with them to allow them access to your device?

Apple allows them to connect to any device in the “Find My” network and phone home, regardless of who it belongs to. Presumably that includes you driving next to someone with an iPhone if the tag is in your car. It’s supposed to also alert you f it’s determined to be travelling with you and the owner is not nearby, but I think that requires you to also have an Apple device, or install and actively use Apple’s Tracker Detect app for Android.
