I looked that up. You can change the double press on the tile from SOS to ring my phone. That's pretty cool.
I will have to look that up. I don't know much about tiles.
I'm retired and while I do have a laptop, the laptop's only connection to the internet is through my phone. I'm generally way out in the woods somewhere. And the only connection I have is a cellular connection. I was mostly just curious what people would say.
Good plan. I'm on board with this plan!
Oh, I see what you mean. I suppose I could borrow someone's phone.
I bet your provider probably has some way to help you find your device.
That's a good idea, just get a cheapo phone.
My account information
I just thought of the library idea just before I clicked on this. I don't know why I didn't think of that before.
I figured as much. I was hoping there was a workaround like I could call Apple or something.
How would I find my phone if I didn't have a phone to find my phone with?
Suppose I lost my phone and I could use find my phone to find it. The problem is I don't have my phone in order to find my phone with. I don't have a computer I don't have a laptop All I have is a phone. How on earth would I use find my phone to find my phone?
Nothing applies to cops. They seem to be able to do whatever they want.
Yeah the cops came to our house one time for something some kid did it wasn't even related to us. My dog comes out and the cop says, if you don't take control of your dog I'm going to shoot him. That was a mellowest dog I ever had, if you said boo it would hide under the bed. What a dick head.
Why is it that the party that loves guns so much can't fucking shoot.
Wow, Babylon 5 is on Tubi, free with commercials. I am going to watch again.
It was definitely one of the best sci-fi series I've ever watched. But some of the dialogue and the banter between some of the people was kind of, I don't know, maybe not cheesy but cute? Amusing? Wouldn't mind watching it again. The '90s were a long time ago.
Yeah I don't get it. My mom calls up her prayer warriors and starts praying for things. And yet God is omniscient and all seeing why do you have to pray? And when something good happens, is a prayer answered from God. If something bad happens then it's just the will of God. And humans can't understand the mind of God. It's like a big circle jerk.
I like Babylon 5. Was kind of cheesy but I liked it anyway.
It's God's will?
Recently we had one of the largest fires in California history called the Park Fire.
The California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection said Wednesday morning that 277 structures have been destroyed by the fire and 29 structures have been damaged.
On the TV they interviewed a man whose house survived. He said, "I thank god my house was spared".
So, let me get this straight. God destroyed 277 homes but saved yours? If that's god's will then god is an asshole.
An answer to my prayers?
My mom has a list of prayers that she claims were answered by God. As I look at that list I noticed that I did most of those things. When I mention that she says, God works through people. If I have to do all the work what do I need God for?
California knife laws
If it's illegal to have a concealed knife in a vehicle in California, then how do people drive around in an RV with a drawer full of knives?
Confused about sleeping bag temperature ratings
Where I live it rarely gets down to 32 degrees. I bought a bag that said 20 degrees. After reading the manual it said that was the extreme rating. Will this bag keep me warm at 32 degrees or not?
Why is there so much hype around artificial intelligence?
I've tried several types of artificial intelligence including Gemini, Microsoft co-pilot, chat GPT. A lot of the times I ask them questions and they get everything wrong. If artificial intelligence doesn't work why are they trying to make us all use it?
I keep replying to myself
Someone said I keep replying to myself. I often long press the comment and tap reply or tap the comment and tap reply. I don't know what I'm doing wrong.
Edit to clarify. When I get a message in my inbox, I long press on the blue highlight and tap reply. Is that what I'm doing wrong?
I love you all
I'm sitting here on the holy sabbath reading atheist memes while my mother watches sermons.
God can't fix a car
My mom and her prayer warriors have been praying to get my car fixed quickly. My car has been in the shop for a month. Apparently the omniscient omnipresent God of the universe can't fix a car.
Google Gemini and assistant
I tried switching to Gemini on my Samsung phone. Then I found out the Gemini can't open apps on my Android phone. This is kind of a deal breaker because it doesn't actually replace assistant. And it looks like Google is about to replace assistant with Gemini since it laid off most of his assistant workers. I don't see how this helps.
Single player RPG
Even on Android it seems like every game they put out these days is a gotcha MMORPG. I don't really like playing with other people because they keep telling me how bad I am at the game. It's just a game. So I was wondering if there was a good Android RPG that doesn't have any social or gotcha parts of it.
What does dying from all causes mean?
In some studies, at the end of them, I see:
"quitting smoking reduces your chance of dying from all causes."
So if I quit smoking I'm less likely to get hit by a bus?
I'm so confused about Lemmy
I'm not sure if I can post here. Lemmy seems kind of complicated. For instance, I tried to post something and it said I can't because I'm on a local instance. So how do I find out what instance a community is on and how do I make it so I can post?
An example: I went to https://join-lemmy.org/instances and searched for nostupidqestions and nothing was found.
