Not a fix, but a reminder that you can curate your own feed on Lemmy instead of browsing /all

Most communities also have the same users making the posts, so you could consider blocking the users too

One decade old Kingston Datatraveler, one newer cheap Datatraveler, and a whole bunch of SATA SSDs inside usb3 enclosures

I'd have suggested the Clicks keyboard case, but it doesn't slide out + supported iPhones are the 14 and up.

I don't own one though, only heard of it.

I'm mostly in the same boat with supporting the creators, however I don't really like Google to be honest. I end up supporting creators outside the platform, such as via Patreon or by watching on Nebula. Most of my YT consumption is done via NewPipe, Piped and Freetube

There's a little part of me that likes the fact that YouTube is burning a hole in Google's finances tbh lol

Instead of equipping a superhero cape, you just ask your hand the question: @willya@lemmyf.uk?

I don't usually swear on Lemmy, but fuck Unity.

I don't think any studio could predict they'd need to throw out 6 years work on a full game rewrite, nearing completion, but abruptly rendered financially unfeasible because of a greedy engine developer...

Hope this studio is able to keep going.

Got lucky with one from a 3rd party but it doesn't turn off the screen when I close the cover like my old phone case did. I assume that had a chip in it or there's a software setting I've not found.

Samsung was pretty much one of the only manufacturers installing hall sensors under the display to detect the magnets in their flip cases. I think they stopped including that sensor around the time they got rid of the hardware home button. Their latest tablets still do include a case sensor AFAIK, not sure if it's the same hall effect one or something else though.

As a side note I miss those cases with the small window, was pretty cool to be able to just flip the lid, see the time, then stuff the phone away

What issues did you have with it?

I use an FP3 personally, on Android 10 at the mo (13 is available, but i'm planning to move to Lineage instead), haven't experienced anything I would describe as a dealbreaker - especially compared to my previous device which was an S5.

On paper it looks rubbish, but compared to my S5 it's night and day. That said, I wouldn't suggest any 'sustainable' device to someone using a mainstream flagship like an S23 etc, as 'sustainable' devices typically always pick older components with the longest service/support life, not the latest and greatest. It's a compromise I am fine with, but people who are very heavy/demanding power users should 100% look somewhere else or just keep using their current device IMO...

Actually, on the topic of FP issues, particularly for the target audience that i is maybe likely to use more FOSS apps on their device, is a bug that mis-clicks after a lengthy amount of time spent in apps that use Jetpack Compose for the UI (like Jerboa and Kvaesitso). I'm not familiar with that tech at all though so this is completely out of my depth. I've only ever noticed fellow FP users complaining about it. The fix is to force kill the app, which can get a little bothersome

I absolutely love the clarity of this response

That sounds like they're using Admiral's sh!tty brokerage and anti-adblock thing, saw one site with over 1500 partners. Most difficult one to block because of how frequently they buy domains for adblock evasion...

One of these days I'm going to just blacklist the IP ranges of their google cloud fleet

Any way to read this outside the US? I'm being redirected to eu.knoxnews.com 😔
