I had an old Samsung windows phone, the first gen. I loved that thing. The performance was great and the screen was fairly small, but it was way more usable than other phones despite the lower resolution because it had an OLED display.

Then I eventually got the Lumia 1520 behemoth haha. Then eventually back to one of Sony's Compact phones, but the performance was terrible. I'm now on more regular sized phones.

The best part about the smaller phones was the much for usable single-handed use. I think that's the main thing. I also tended to use another device for things like reading or entertainment. But I will say though, that 1520 was pretty great.

How's the performance of the phone? I had one of the older Z Compacts and while I liked the smaller size, the performance was pretty abysmal. Like, I'm in line and want to get my ticket out ahead of time - still waiting for the phone to catch up by the time I got to my turn.

I love these guys! Definitely check them out and their videos with the subtitles for a translation.

The league of women voters does a great job of presenting information and comparisons on each candidate. They also have a tool to help you make a ballot so you can remember your choices.

A quick stop over by Aruba would be pretty. I've also heard good things about Martinique. I haven't been to either myself yet. I heard that Aruba also has a huge Carnival celebration, so that season around February would be super fun.

I just created and edited a txt file in the android drive app.

Actually, I'm down in Latin America right now and a lot of deliveries are done by bike or scooter. It actually often takes about the same amount of time when in town, maybe a tiny bit longer depending, but because bikes are more versatile than cars - ie smaller, more maneuverable - they can sort of cut through the traffic much easier. In these urban areas, bikes are often faster to get around with, especially if you have infrastructure for it.

But most deliveries down here are on scooter, not in a car.

It's nice. There are different scents. You use your finger to rub just a tiny bit off and apply it. The smells are good. I'd say it's a bit harder to over-apply. And it's in a much smaller package, so easier to transport.

Something like that, except it'd be DeLarge and it's in the system with a space and apparently case-insensitive

I did it with Fulton and Roark's wax based cologne. It's great for traveling and they smell nice. I still have the sample pack since I don't wear cologne often.

Edit/Update: It turns out that my last name has a capitol letter in the middle and they put a space in it. Thank god. I can actually vote this year.

Yep, not found

 

The Botanical gardens in Córdoba Argentina

 

Bianca Graulau

While reporting on the inequality and unequal treatment between tourists and locals in Oaxaca, Mexico, Bianca was told to not mention the hotel chain because they were affiliated with the company.

In Oaxaca, there is a water shortage that has a great impact on the people there and in the surrounding area. But if you're a tourist, you may not even know.

This story was censored by a big and well-known media company. So I decided to tell it on my own. I look into the following question: does the current tourism model in Oaxaca lead to deeper inequality?

 

Edit: trying to figure out the spoiler tag...sorry

Edit 2: I tried three ways and nothing worked, but spoilers below

I've run into a lot of times where needed things don't trigger bc I'm hiding

spoiler hag

! For example, when rescuing Mayrina the first time, I snuck past them and tried to talk to her, which triggered the cutscenes and hag transformation.

Combat was supposed to start, but didn't. So I went into the fireplace thinking that was a good escape route and into the lair, where she, in hag form, told me I shouldn't be sneaking around and to leave, but with the normal lady's voice.

Then, when rescuing from the cage, I used the druids thorn whip to yang Mayrina down. Combat triggered and she acting like she was still in the cage instead of running through the open door behind us.

I tried a second time and she ran through, but disappeared. When I went back, she was outside the cage. I thought she was the hag bc she had 0 damage, so I cast blindness on her and she ran...somewhere.

Also, the hag never rendered, but I could see her vision outline.

Anyway, now I think I actually have to fight the hag. I read something about a water trick, so I'll try that was well.

But jeez, with all the warnings to run away from a hag, I thought I'd be able to do that.

Of course leaving an angry hag alive is no good, so 🤷‍♂️!<

 

This is a feature that I miss, along with attachments on calendar events. I was thinking of building something myself using NLP and NER to read an email and extract calendar details from it, but I'd need access to an API to be able to do that and the API is no longer public. Is there any way to either get access to these APIs or some other workaround for this?

 

I noticed my battery drained really quickly since getting proton mail, but the energy use in Androids battery report would only show a few percent. I went from being able to go w whole day with plenty of battery left it having to charge once or twice a day. I turned off the background email loading and my battery levels are back to normal.

 

Hey there! I recently got server banned b/c I was sharing a link in men's communities and I was mistaken for a bot.

I didn't have a way to respond to the ban. I was just logged out. I didn't see a link or even which mod did the ban so that I could reply to them, but then I couldn't get into my account to reply anyway.

It'd be nice to maybe get a "if you think this was in error" email or something.

Although I know that if lemmy was the size of reddit, people would hook that email up to chatgpt, so :/

Anyway, it'd be a nice feature to have. I doubt I'll need it again, but I was quite confused as to what to do.

 

I want to share it, but I'm not sure where.
