Soldering is getting harder.
  • I just do minor soldering with building ham radio antennas and power connectors. For the most part it's easy stuff but every now and then I build a small, low power antenna matching unit and holy cow...

  • A feature I waited for ever since I switched to an iPhone - Photos app can now tag pets.
  • That's been on Google photos for a bit, only added a different cat to my cat's folder once... But they're both calico

  • Fuck Windows terminal. All my homies hate Windows terminal.
  • I dunno, my middle school days had fond memories of learning how to write batch scripts.... HOWEVER. I'll just let that nostalgia stay in the past and stick to my guake as a nerd hobbiest that's not in the business

  • Everyone I've talked to about joining Mastodon/Lemmy/The Fediverse
  • That's my thing, newpipe has a really clean interface but I'd love to interact more. Might have to check out this fedilab thing I keep seeing mentioned

  • Millennial rule
  • Meh, kids are weird. Like REALLY F'N WEIRD. I was pretty f'n weird and hell, I still am. I'm not mad at kids for being odd little shits, I just correct my kids when they're not being good humans to others, other than that, good luck, the world's on fire šŸ¤·

  • newpipe.net removed from Google search results due to DMCA take down request
  • Of course I went and redownloaded newpipe because I was reminded of it's existence lol. It's been a pretty good option for a while now. I mean I DO have YouTube premium and almost always use YouTube music for listening to streaming music, but the extreme ease of downloading is always a plus. A lot of the content creators I follow I like to give their videos traffic, but for a download on mobile, works great

  • Lil prank rule
  • JUST now saw a screen of this reporting on TikTok, lmao

  • Found this blast from the past (2015) on an old hard drive
  • I thought I was super hot sht when someone was over and I'd spin my 2 screen wobbly cube around or do my pages around like wavy sheets of paper šŸ¤£

  • Showering with romantic partners: overrated
  • Entirely about intent! I HAVE dated someone that just wanted some us time even if not physical, then I'd hop out and dry off but hang around while they did the rest of their shower

  • Showering with romantic partners: overrated
  • As a bald guy, my showers are pretty darn fast. Abrasive scrub with my fancy soap all over within 5 minutes on the usual, add 5 minutes about once or twice a week for shaving. When I shower with someone else they usually have a lot more involved with their shower and I'm out before they really get started.

    I mean, I'm definitely not opposed to showering with a significant other, but I usually let them know that it's not going to be what they think it will be lol

  • The Zuck suck is in full swing.
  • Ooooh, just the web page with ddg browser. I was thinking they had gotten app requests blocked and was being notified of them. I've had the ddg app for years šŸ¤˜

  • The Zuck suck is in full swing.
  • Ok.... Dumb question.... How do you have ddg blocking requests?

  • *Permanently Deleted*
  • I use jerboa with blurred nsfw for daily use and connect at home when I don't care so I don't have to mess with any settings...... Until sync comes out!!!

  • Some trouble
  • I've played nv on Linux install without issue! That was def fun. My guilty pleasure is 76, I've had a good group on there and we enjoy it. My old hand me down desktop I had to keep a box fan blowing on it because the graphics card would overheat and freeze the PC when playing ANY game. Finally got tired of that jank and moved my SSDs to a small form factor PC that runs absolutely great and I've got a sff graphics card in my plans. It won't be fancy, but it'll be waaaaay better than the 3 and a half foot tall gaming PC I was using that was constantly overheating. I don't have the disposable $ to just get a new setup but I've always been decent at making something work way better than not having anything.

  • Opinion - What are your thoughts on password managers? Do you use one? Would you recommend it to others?
  • I use enpass and maybe I didn't search hard enough but I didn't see anyone here mention it. I for the most part use it for 2fa, and because it syncs to my own cloud storage account, does anyone have bad experiences with enpass?

  • Some trouble
  • I dual boot just so I can still have programming software for many of my ham radios. Planning on getting a graphics card soon and then I'll use windows for that and fallout šŸ„“
