gonta,

I’ve watch and read various version of Devilman, I enjoyed the series… But I could never remember the main plot or story, only the memes stuck to my brain.

gonta,

Ah yeah, thanks for jogging my goldfish memory. Pretty wild ending, no wonder my brain interpret it as wild fever dream.

gonta,

You can even make a complete sentence that makes sense with symbols and numbers.

“Ronaldo doesn’t grill 76 Canadian Tacos.”

Or whatever

Is ProtonVPN worth it?

@piracy

Got reminded of this while reading about ProtonMail. The reason I haven't gotten into proper is that I don't have a VPN for torrenting, and the reason I don't have a VPN is that I don't . So it would be nice if I got a good VPN while myself.

Will ProtonVPN rat me out to Comcast? I know some VPNs don't hide what you're downloading from your ISP, for reasons I don't fully understand.

gonta,

Very informative. Thanks for taking your time out to wrote all of these! 😄

gonta,

ML = Machine Learning

DL = Deep Learning

gonta,

Respect 👍

More people need to learn how to gracefully accept mistake like you did, even myself.

gonta,

I left r/popular and r/all but lemmy still not yet an adequate replacement for non-tech niche hobbies and interests.

gonta,

The former. I would love to start these online communities but I don’t have the time nor emergy to maintain them; I’m barely browsing reddit and lemmy as it is.

For now, I can only compromise and use reddit.

gonta,

Is this a D:OS2 reference

First automatic JPEG-XL cloud service (www.gumlet.com)

JPEG 's conspicuous issues like lack of transparency, animation, lossless compression and high bit depth support makes it little tough to justify it as leading format for time to come. Various attempts like WebP and AVIF are made (and are supported on modern browsers) to overcome problems of JPEG but they all also suffer some...

gonta,

It’s my first time hearing about JPEG-XL. What’s the file format name? ‘*.jpeg-xl’?

Can I create it with Adobe Photoshop?

gonta,

I know you’re just being hyperbolic, but there was a time when using Chrome was a smart choice.

gonta,

Wait really? Is it on the stable version or do I need to install beta/nightly?

gonta,

Thanks, didn’t realize it’s an add-on. Much better because now I can use it on Librewolf. :D

gonta, (edited )

Offline translation, nice. I’m gonna miss Opera GX stylish theme but I’m ready to ditch Chromium-based browser again, at least on desktop :D

Edit: I’be checked the add-on, unfortunately my mother language and other popular languages are not supported yet.

gonta,

Fascinating! :D

gonta,

Maybe it’s a problem caused by my phone setting then. Thanks, will check out the browser now :D

gonta,

I use the one from playstore. Sure, I’ll try the launchers you suggest later. Even if it doesn’t fix my problem, it’s about time I launcher hop anyway :D

gonta,

Hey, thanks! I never check their page so I didn’t realize that the playstore ver. hasn’t been updated for years.

I’m currently trying out Kvaesitso launcher, very neat FOSS but too unfamiliar. Need time to tinker and customize to my taste, so I think I’ll go with latest alpha Lawnchair.

How’s your experience with it? Is the latest version stable enough for you? I don’t mind minor bugs that doesn’t really disrupt my workflow.

gonta, (edited )

Wow, I just checked the webpage. It’s the browser I never knew I needed.

Even if this doesn’t solve my problem I’m really intrigued with it, especially the sandbox feature. Will try it out for sure, downloading now.

gonta,

So turns out it’s a launcher problem, not a browser problem. Thanks for the suggestion though, I’ve tried Kiwi browser and it’s great for Chrome-alternative, but ultimately I picked Opera for the features.

Fedi-fanfiction: How would a society look like in which the fediverse is established as THE social media platform?

Please be creative! Will there be more communities? Will we refer to each other based on the instances we belong to? Will there be beefs between instances? Will there be doomed romances of two peoples meeting from different places of the fediverse?

gonta,

Hopefully the worst it can be is a reddit-clone and not other big social media. I wish there’s a better way to aggregate all lemmy posts and make them searchable in search engines. I reckon it’s the allure of reddit, the random collection of information and discussion from ordinary people you can easily find from search engine without (or at least, less obvious) marketing ploy to sell something. That’s the one thing sadly can’t be replaced by lemmy yet.

Maybe there should be a universal lemmy search engine for that? Not just to search communities but also for posts and comments (outside the search option in an instance because it’s limited to communities that are joined by the members of that particular instances). I’m not sure how difficult it’s going to be.

Stories and 10 Years of Telegram (telegram.org)

Today August 23rd, Telegram celebrates its 10th birthday – with our biggest update yet. Over the past decade we’ve built hundreds of new features that are now used by over 800 million people. In this update, we launch Stories – with a unique dual camera mode, granular privacy settings, flexible duration options and much...

gonta,

Hi, if it’s still possible I would like to get an invite too

gonta,

I don’t even dare to hope for Dreadwolf to be, at least, as decent as Inquisition.

gonta,

I’m more inclined toward predatory money-lending companies myself.

What are some game genres / styles you like that aren't being made anymore, or are being mde but not very often?

For me it’s first person puzzle games. I can think of maybe a dozen off the top of my head that came out in the last decade. I especially enjoy when they’re open world. The ability to just quit a puzzle that’s stumped you and go try something else for a little bit is incredibly refreshing.

gonta,

Old Bioware stuff, aka action RPG games that put importance to story, lore, companions, and my not-so-guilty pleasure: romance.

I have a lot of emotions about the upcoming DA: Dreadwold.

gonta,

It would take times, the more informative content we have (even the what’s your top 5 thing posts) that common people use search engine to look up for and find, the more we will get exposure, just like how reddit find its audience. Imo, as long as lemmy doesn’t get into front page of search engine, I’m afraid the number of lemmyverse users that migrate from reddit won’t sharply increase unless reddit does more fuckups. This might also mean, there will be inevitably one or a select few big lemmy instances that will get more exposure.

In any case, it’s not necessarily a bad thing; Lemmy (and kbin) needs a lot of improvement to be accessible to most people. Let people that are tech-savvy and those who are passionate in open-source projects improve it first. Otherwise, others will try and find lemmy too complicated to use as it is right now and not interested in using it later down the road.

Just my 0.02

gonta,

I can see your comment from my instance page :)

gonta,

I wonder who is behind this and what’s the intention.

gonta,

I have use this and I can vouch that it works on most instances; I moved my subscriptions from another instance to mander.xyz using this tool.

But I also have another account in a smaller instance and it doesn’t work. I’m guessing that instance hasn’t been updated.

gonta,

The link works perfectly! Currently, there’s still no way to link a post from other instance that can instantly open the fetched counterpart post in the instance of the user opening the link.

gonta,

That’s brilliant. Once again they prove they’re more intelligent than people thought.
