If you want lemmy to work well, speak with /u/sunaurus@lemm.ee, he’ll sort you out. Dude is a legend and runs the best instance, IMO, but is always willing to help other instances.

Oh I almost forgot about Dirk Gently! Wish that would come back.
His furry feet in LOTR were something else.
Not closely per se, but bits and bobs. Horns was awesome, as was Guns Akimbo, and Swiss Army Man was a good laugh. Good Omens as a show I don’t really like overall (they basically abandoned the idea pitched in season 1 and changed things every season) but the scene with him in the Western season dancing to She’ll Be Coming Round The Mountain while wearing assless chaps, and the general character in the Mad Max season, both live rent free in my head. Also the Weird Al documentary perfectly presented Al’s on again, off again relationship with Madonna.
I would love to see him in a musical, but I don’t really go to those. Maybe not the one where he had to get his cock out on stage, but I love that he did that. Still need to see Book of Mormon (Radcliffe had nothing to do with that).
I would lose my shit if he and Elijah Wood did something together.
Absolutely well deserved.
I’m in Europe, and I don’t use banking apps. For the most part anyway, one of my credit cards pissed me off by switching to app only, then eventually I relented with one bank because I wanted a 2nd account that required the app.
Banks either verify by SMS (lol) or provide a passkey fob.
GrapheneOS should provide some measure of protection. You can also perhaps disable some tracking features using something like Warden (requires root) - although this hasn’t been updated in years and probably misses stuff now.
Yeah ditto :( but Jenny Nicholson released a 4 hour video on the Star Wars Hotel just recently.
I mean, a jellyfin server is typically full of copyright protected material. I also wouldn’t expect them to notify you in advance, however they should still send some notice when they stop providing the service you’ve paid for.
Run Magisk in Zygisk mode with the deny list hiding itself from banking apps.
However I would advise not using the banking app if you can help it, they’re not clean. Hell, even accessing online banking via a website seems to require connections to google.com and gstatic.com to perform hidden captcha (you don’t have to do the picture thing but it still does the server side tracking).
Lol I do run Android without Google Play Services.
Ty, but I think I’m just gonna switch from my dodgy Chinese Xiaomi phone to the refurbished Pixel 7 Pro I have. I mean, I’ve had it for like e months now, one of these days I will. Although, I really will miss my IR blaster, even though I hardly ever use it it’s nice to be able to change the TV in the pub lol
Edit: lmfao I just changed the TV 10m away, had Tour de France on, but now it’s basketball.
You’re still putting a measure of trust into Google with that, rather than just trusting F-Droid.
Ah wait, I should’ve read the article lol:
The law allows local authorities to name “designated providers” of a certain scale – currently only achieved by Apple and Google – and require those providers to do three things:
- Allow third-party app stores on their devices;
- Allow application developers to use third-party billing services;
- Enable users to change default settings with simple procedures, and offer choice screens for tools like browsers;
And it forbids them doing three more:
- Engage in any form of preferential treatment of their services over those of competitors in the display of search results without justifiable reason;
- Use acquired data about competing applications for their own applications;
- Prevent application developers from using features controlled by the OS with the same level of performance as the one used by Designated Providers.
So Google already allows 3rd party app stores and lots of settings (although these are always hit and miss, even in the custom ROM scene - I can’t get pocket detection right now and my phone keeps doing things in my pocket), but the 3rd party billing and choice screens applies to them.
Downloading F-Droid from Google Play kind of defeats the purpose of F-Droid.
Doesn’t Google already let you do this?? My Android phone doesn’t even have Google Play Services, I just only use 3rd party stores. If I want an app from Google Play I get it through Aurora.
Nah I dunno, Sunak had to call an election within the next few months, and economically this was the best time - just after a slight fall in inflation, which will only go back up again by the end of the summer.
With Marcon here, he’s in a pretty secure position, I don’t believe he needs to call an election within the next few months and he seems to only be doing it to have some sort of “round 2” that he blindly hopes he’ll win. That, to me, reminds me more of Cameron.
Eerily reminiscent of David Cameron calling for a Brexit referendum.
The lawsuit wasn’t coming because they were in a strong grey area with one physical copy per digital. By offering unlimited copies they directly invited a lawsuit.
And then their legal defense had absolutely no competency behind it. They didn’t come with any legal principles, they basically just said “we shouldn’t be punished because we’re nice”, and then they tried the same style of argument during appeal, basically throwing money away on legal expenses. All the while they were campaigning for donations - the people that supported them were paying the lawyers, not for the IA’s regular activities.
If only they hadn’t shot themselves so hard in the foot during covid with their book lending, and dug the hole so much deeper with their piss poor handling of the lawsuit.
While I do very much support what they do, I’d be reluctant to give them money, if only because it might go to paying their dumbass lawyer.
Dude this is the internet, the burden of proof is on the person anyone says “Source?” to first.
In seriousness though, we’re shooting the shit here. The burden of proof is shared equally. Someone said something, they gave reasoning (a form of evidence) why they think that thing, and you just came and said “No you’re wrong.” The ball is firmly in your court to explain why.
All software from torrent sites should be treated with a wary eye.
