“Born to Liberate”

but I want music streaming

Hey, that’s fine & I get it - so much easier to shuffle a playlist than figure out which album you won’t mind hearing front-to-back again. I’m eyeballing old iPod Classics for that - I’ve seen folks mod them with sizable drives and better batteries. Dunno that I want to put in the effort, myself, but I love the idea of “upcycling” old tech.

Getting back to my original reply: my main point was you don’t need these conveniences, much less having them built into your phone. Yep, music streaming is wonderfully handy & I use it every day, but practically speaking there are other methods.

Without knowing anything about you or your habits, I’m going to offer a counterpoint -

I’d suggest you don’t need music streaming, email, or a fitness tracker built into your phone. “Back in the day” we’d have a small collection of tapes / CDs in the car for trips, most (all?) email providers offer decent web apps, and while I agree it’s useful to track steps and food intake and such - anymore I’m not sure I trust the makers of these fitness apps to not sell my health data.

Personally, I’m trying to move towards a “dumb phone”, but like you I use my phone for a lot more than just social media & I’m finding it very tough. I think a phone with just a decent web browser could do the trick.

Wait… so it’s just a hardware middle man for Do Not Disturb?

You can leave the key behind

Fun idea until I’m out and about & realize the one app I locked would be useful.

They get sore before it rains, now

Kaizo Mario! I’m trash at it, but I get tremendous satisfaction when I eventually nail the tricks.

“Arm the teachers” they said…

My jaw dropped the first time I saw Joker’s “disappearing pencil” trick. The whole scene with him interrupting the mob boss meeting is great.

Could anyone broad-stroke the security requirements for something like this? Looks like they’ll pay for hosting up to a certain amount, and between that and a pipeline to keep the mirror updated I’d think it wouldn’t be tough to get one up and running.

Just looking for theory - what are the logistics behind keeping a mirror like this secure?

This exact post has been floating around Reddit for at least a few months. Looks like ragebait.

The LEGO Skywalker Saga did a better job of telling the story than the movies. One of the few games I 100% completed. Just a fun, chill way to unwind.

I’m here for the new wave of aggressively wholesome shitposts.

I’m glad it’s archived. It’s horrifying to watch, but still a fraction of the kind of horror happening to Palestinians. Respect and RIP.

This guy earns the title of “Most American Cop” for pulling a gun on a charred fucking corpse.

Zelda Williams as in Robin Williams’ daughter??

I can’t live without fzf. I hope junegunn is as happy as a human can be.

Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure is my favorite, but I’ll sit through any of em. I just love those characters, and genuinely try to live my life along the “be excellent to each other” philosophy.

Bill & Ted. Be excellent to each other!
