I got my account unbanned luckily, yes. I’m giving up on the site as a support avenue for now though. Seems like too much information is being filtered out to be helpful.

They’re just called “backup codes” now. But yeah.

If you choose to pack a portable monitor+kb+dock combo, you can use your phone as a computer instead with Dex or similar. Seems more practical to me in 2025.

Might upgrade to a Pixel 8 from my current Pixel 6. I want to get security updates until at least the end of this administration.

I like lemmy more because it feels like I get more interaction when I post here. Smaller communities are just better for meaningful discussion.

Oh it’s 100% illegal but it’s not worth the battle. Landlord is just a landlord on the side, her main gig is an attorney. Sounds like an expensive nightmare for us if we even try to push it beyond what we already have.

My landlord spray-painted over all our cabinets with vinyl. Did a shit job and now paint flakes come off into our dishes. They said it was too expensive to fix 🤷‍♂️

Librewolf is privacy-hardened so it’s probably the best option. Brave is Chromium-based. Realistically though, all web browsers come with compromises, and internet anonymity is virtually impossible without unrealistic amounts of effort.

It’s pleasing to the eye but lacks the soul and passion of a real, human gooner who just wants to make people cum

The new manifest v3 version is actually not that bad, though not nearly as good as normal ublock.

Had a Galaxy S8 and loved it. Got a Pixel 6 and now the slow fingerprint sensor is the bane of my existence. Why did they put it on the front? Why is that the standard now? It sucks, it’s just slower and less ergonomic.

I got asked out by a girl in high school I barely knew after feeling unlovable for most of my teens. I became fast friends with her female friends and it kinda helped me realize that women are just people.

Later I broke up with her but stayed friends with everyone. Eventually I started dating one of her other friends, and we’re still together 6 years later. Taught me that being friends with someone should probably come before a relationship, and the best way to get girl friends is to just hang around them and do normal friend stuff.

Later I found out that the only reason I got asked out in the first place was because of a coin flip. If I lost that 50/50 I might still be an incel weirdo. Weird to think about.

I’ve been reading House of Leaves and I’m struggling to get through it because the characters are just abrasive fuckheads tbh. Only halfway through after like two months.

Of course Linux is better for custom, purpose-built hardware. That’s like, its main advantage for the commercial sector.
