Going on my first super long haul flight - what can I buy to make it more comfortable?
  • Steam Deck + noise cancelling headphones.

    I haven't worked out the sleeping part yet, but will be scouring the comments here for ideas.

  • Day 47 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I’ve been playing until I forget to post Screenshots
  • Many thanks. This is one of the post series I'm enjoying following the most on Lemmy right now.

  • Mans got big hands!
  • Was hoping to see this in the comments.

  • Welcome new Lemmings.
  • Looks like he's initiating the five point palm exploding heart technique.

  • Why I am not convinced that Graphene OS is as good as people claim
  • The notification piping intrigues me. Maybe I'll give it another go on my next device.

  • *Permanently Deleted*
  • Definitely the Okama Gamesphere.

  • Motherboards and systems with China's Loongson CPUs now shipping to US customers — options start from $373 for a DTX board with processor and cooler
  • Could be for devs? China's long term goal is to wean itself off western software and hardware.

  • How heterosexual couples met in the US
  • This belongs in boringdystopia.

  • Midge defence?
  • Smidge! Buy smidge. It works really well against a variety of biting things.

  • Yellow Wagtail
  • How well does the sigma lens work with the EF mount adapter?

  • What was your best decision in life?
  • Moving to Ireland. Better than the UK in almost every way.

  • Signs you're getting old?
  • I thought Fairphone would solve this for me, but the thing is too damn chonky.

  • Signs you're getting old?
    • A general feeling of alienation from society. Particularly younger people.
    • Dislike of ‘modern’ music.
    • Nostalgia over the way things used to be as you have lived long enough to witness the enshittification.
  • Injury Rates at SpaceX Soar Above Industry Norms
  • This image gives me Subnautica vibes.

  • Fairbuds are Fairphone’s proof that we really could make better tiny gadgets
  • Codec support is a bit of a bummer. Otherwise I would have bought them.

  • Automattic buys Beeper for $125MM, launches closed-source "privacy" app
  • Maybe they could have spent some of that money on Simplenote maintenance & development.

  • I have a confession to make: I'm in love with a bird.
  • There is something strangely pleasing about watching house sparrows going about their lives. They lived in the roof of our old house. Almost felt like they were a part of the family. We've since moved & the new place has all the roof gaps either filled in or meshed off. Can't do anything about it as it's a rental.

  • Mobile Roaming in the US & Canada

    What do people here do when wanting to take their phone with them when travelling to the US or Canada. It looks like I might need to take out a mortgage if I took my eir SIM with me & turned on data roaming.

    Does anyone have any recommendations for eSIMs or anything else?

    Recommendations for a FOSS Cross-Platform Note-Taking Application

    Up to now I've been using Simplenote, which has a Linux client (but also Android & iOS) & supports live collaboration on notes. However, Simplenote hasn't had a meaningful update for a long time, & it's recently been behaving strangely, e.g. notes undeleting themselves, line duplications & undeletions.

    Can anyone recommend an alternative? Spinning up an ownCloud/nextcloud instance just to use Joplin feels a little overkill. I stumbled across turtl, but the project looks abandoned.

    Left-Leaning Online Local News Source for Cork

    I'm shortly going to be migrating to Cork. I'd be grateful if someone could point me in the direction of some 'left' or 'centre-left' online news sources for Cork. Preferably with RSS feeds.

    Bird ID

    play.google.com Merlin Bird ID by Cornell Lab - Apps on Google Play

    What’s that bird? Just answer 5 questions, snap a photo, or record its song!

    Merlin Bird ID by Cornell Lab - Apps on Google Play

    A lot of people probably already know this exists, but for those who don't, there's an awesome app that tells you what birds are around from their calls/songs. It's called "Merlin". You can also give it photos to ID. I usually leave it running in my pocket or hand while I walk around my local RSPB reserve.

    Feature Request: Use a different colour to indicate the usernames of OP and you in the comments

    It might help a bit. I remember Infinity used to do this.
