The reason for Android's Notification system being better than iOS, is solely due to the ability to turn off individual aspects of an application's notifications.

Google, the poor multi-billion dollar scrappy startup that maintains Android, made a payment app that has one notification setting, "Google Pay". So all the ads, promotions, everything.

3rd party apps like PhonePe & Paytm have a better system.

How do you manage to maintain this OS?

AliExpress is one of the worst offenders. If you want “useful” notifications (like order updates) you have to put up with their ads and deals bs. I turn them all off.

I think it’s mostly lemmy.world issue, since (for some reason) is Sync’s default, instead of suggesting smaller instances.

FUCK YEAH, I got one last month. Best printer I’ve ever had. No, I’m not being paid to say this. Fuck HP!

@victron@lemmy.world avatar

I humbly think the reasons other people have to print something is none of your business. And your personal story is no one else’s. Many people, myself included, need to print stuff on a regular basis, for work, school or whatever. The post is not about that, but the scummy practices of a shitty company.

Reddit won nothing, maybe just didn’t lose as hard as we expected, but the site is a cesspool (more than before).

I mean, we all know all those step-siblings (or actual siblings) videos are pure bullshit, but you’re right, it seems they attract some serious clicks. Or so I’ve been told.

I get you, but you can’t deny that “genre” still is a huge hook, also anime is full of that shit (the whole “they’re not actually blood related” bs lmao).

Amazon's Amp is now available on Android (play.google.com)

Last spring, Amazon launched its live audio-streaming platform, Amp, which aims to reinvent radio with “an infinite dial of shows.” Amp offers users access to a vast, built-in music library to create their own DJ sets with. No need to buy songs or flirt with the DMCA, just make a playlist, go live, talk in between tracks,...

Sounds interesting, but sometimes you just want to listen to something while minding your businesses, not interact or anything. Let’s see how it does, for those amateur radio hosts.

What foods can last 3-4 days without refrigeration?

I’m going to be camping for 4 days at a location without easy access to fire (hence no boiled water). As such, I’m going to be packing a bunch of canned stuff for my daily meals. The place is in England, where we’re expecting a few hot days this week and maybe some rain over the weekend....

Ok, I’m googling that shit (no pun intended), didn’t know about it.

victron,

I’ll take your word for it, my daughter (10) likes that shit, I don’t know what is it about, I only recognize the damn song.

before the whole reddit clusterfuck and blackout started I created both kbin and lemmy accounts. One of those is just gathering dust

victron,
@victron@lemmy.world avatar

The more options the better. For now Lemmy is good and the apps are progressing at an awesome pace, honestly didn’t expect that.

victron,
@victron@lemmy.world avatar

Oh yeah, until someone decides to pull a beehaw and defederate, that’s why I have a kbin account too, but haven’t had the need to use it that much.

victron,
@victron@lemmy.world avatar

Yeah, also the fact that they have… microblogging or something? I have mastodon for that.

victron,
@victron@lemmy.world avatar

Yeah, since Lemmy.world started to grow like a mf, I don’t miss beehaw very much tbh, it absolutely scratches that early reddit itch

Computer chip with built-in human brain tissue gets military funding (newatlas.com)

Last year, Monash University scientists created the “DishBrain” – a semi-biological computer chip with some 800,000 human and mouse brain cells lab-grown into its electrodes. Demonstrating something like sentience, it learned to play Pong within five minutes. They allowed the brain cells to act on the paddle, moving it...

(Web developer) I distro-hopped for years, after discovering Ubuntu 8.10 (OpenSUSE, Fedora, Linux Mint, Ubuntu Mate,Manjaro, Ubuntu Budgie, etc). Then left Linux altogether for some time. 4 years ago returned to Kubuntu, using only LTS. My best Linux experience ever. Until yesterday, when I installed Debian 12. Hated Gnome before (I don’t remember why), but not anymore, the stability is astounding.

I used to be a huge Plasma evangelist. At first I hated it, the old versions I mean. You just moved the mouse pointer the wrong way and your whole DE was fucked. Too many options and settings. But KDE 5 changed my world. Stable and lighter than Gnome, but still fully configurable. Last night I switched to Debian 12, Gnome. Maybe I’m getting old, but I’m loving it. I don’t tinker with my DEs that much anymore. Just a couple Gnome extensions and I was good to go.

‘Oppenheimer’ Review: Christopher Nolan’s Epic Thriller About Father Of The Atomic Bomb Is As Frightening As It Is Brilliant (deadline.com)

Wow, thank you for your comprehensive reply. I’ve used raw, because the brand recognition, but didn’t know much about this topic. I’ve also used those big ass blunt wraps one time or two. Forgot the brand, but they were ok, I guess (not much of a blunt dude). On the other hand, when I have the prep time (specially on weekends) I choose the bong or those awesome top puffs. But it’s awesome to have a joint handy, I’ve been using reusable glass filter tips for some time.
