No idea, they never allowed anyone to use it outside the USA as far as I'm aware

Best os choices and use cases for a netbook with 2ram? in c/linux@lemmy.ml

I recently installed ChromeOS flex on a 2GB RAM device and it seems to work fine, it was an old EoL Chromebook though

I can't speak for any of the Fi stuff (that's a network, right?), but I also got the DCL via memory alert this morning

how we see elements in c/science_memes@mander.xyz

Do particle physicists give a shit about anything so large and complex as an element? Leave that derivative work to the chemists!

BYD turns latest Galaxy Watch into a digital car key in c/android@lemdro.id

All the fobs I've seen still have a physical key inside them for emergencies, I imagine some manufacturers are arrogant enough to have dropped that though.

I think Runners in the Shadows has been out for a while

Wow, a plan with no possible drawbacks! Even in a world with perfect cybersecurity I love it when my car key battery runs out and I can't get home.

I don't think people are ready for the fully unhinged Lancer posts, I know I'm not

Pixel Phone app preps ‘Call Message’ live voicemail capability in c/android@lemdro.id

[–] smeg@feddit.uk 4 points 2 days ago (3 children)

I would actually be very interested in this if it didn't require all the usual google nonsense. I'm surprised that there aren't any simple FOSS apps capable of screening a call without any of the fancy language processing stuff.

All it would need to do would be answer the call, play a recorded message saying "this call is being screened, please state your name etc", put them on hold, alert me and play me their response, and then give me the option to pick up or hang up.

When you're starting on a foundation of knowing bugger all it's impressive when any of the stuff you come up with is true!

Please, FOSS world, we need something like ChromeOS in c/linux@lemmy.ml

Some posts (e.g. this and this) do not load the images in Summit but load fine in the web ui. Summit gives this error:

Possible issue rendering markdown (feddit.uk)

This post contains quite a lot of formatting. It looks fine in the web ui but Summit seems to mess it up (I think maybe it's trying to put it all under one of the >?)

Bug report: post link is not showing (thumbnail only) (feddit.uk)

I looked at this post in Summit and it's just showing an image post, but when I view it in the web ui there's a linked article. Have I hidden it in some setting or is Summit not showing the link?

There's a video in the description of this post which Summit can't display, the Lemmy web ui doesn't load it either but apparently it loads in other clients

I've seen this posted a couple of times in comments, it seems like a reasonable investigation in to the recent shit storm

I usually actively avoid engaging in anything to do with US politics as it's pointless getting depressed by an awful situation I have zero control over; this post is not about fueling arguments or making us all feel worse, just determining if a useful tech company has gone to shit (TL;DR: probably not).

This triple-backticked comment loads in the Lemmy web ui but not in Summit, though weirdly it works fine on the original instance!

This post is a link to imgur. The web ui shows a thumbnail but Summit does not, and when I click the link Summit crashes.

@idunnololz@lemmy.world can you recreate or do you need more info?
