Thank you for your thought provoking question, “AI has use”. I’m sure this is a legitimate question coming from a real human.

I’d support an option to collapse them automatically (and would probably use it), but I disagree that they’re a bad idea. I use them a lot and really like it.
If this was implemented, I think it should render similar to how spoilers do on web Lemmy, but with the title being prefixed with [photo] and the title itself being the alt text if set. Something like this:

Spoilers aren’t actually implemented in BfL yet, but that’d look like this:
Not able to reproduce this either with posts or comments (including the askreddit thread with 2k comments) on a pixel 7 running Android 14, but I’ll take a look on my old phone later on and see if I can reproduce it on that (Oppo A72, Android 11)
Thanks!
Heya, sorry for the necropost, but would you mind sharing how you’re doing on storage these days? I’m looking at spinning up a Lemmy instance of my own and I’m curious about the storage aspect on small instances
Why’s it a static gif
Seriously. In Australia, you have to “activate” your Sim card with your full name, email, bank details (depending on the carrier), and a copy of your driver’s license. Hell, I bought my last phone directly from a carrier, completely outright, with cash, prepaid with no plan, and they took a photocopy of my drivers license. Buying phones elsewhere they’ve never done that to me, as long as it’s prepaid and bought outright, but for some reason the major telcos do it for all purchases
many engineers do not know how to effectively communicate with management when something will result in terribly written software and just do it anyway.
I imagine this is partly a result of bad and misinformed managers too though. There’s a lot out there who have 0 clue wtf you do, just that you make computer do thing yet still act like they know your job better than you
Not a programmer, but I see this all the time in other fields. And all it takes is someone in upper management only being focused on time or costs, or someone in middle management acting like they know better than everyone else.
I’ve never seen one in Australia. We don’t really prepay for petrol here. Some servos in the dodgiest suburbs do make you between certain hours, but I’ve never seen one that makes everybody always prepay or one that actually takes your card. Most of the time you’d go inside to prepay anyways, but on the few pumps I’ve seen that do have card payments on the physical pump it’s either tap or swipe, no insert, and no holding cards hostage
Not to sound like I’m claiming to be up on a moral high ground or anything, but it leaves a bad taste in my mouth using accessibility tools for non accessibility reasons when it comes to Reddit. Ordinarily, I wouldn’t care, but Reddit has shown me that they don’t give a shot about people who need accessibility tools at all. Allowing some of them to stay around was just a desperate attempt at preventing some bad PR. If they thought an accessibility tool was mainly used by people trying to bypass their stupid and greedy decisions, they would 100% kill it off in an instant
What’s a VPM?
It’s not just you, it’s phoning home for me too. Pixel 7, also Australia, bought outright from officeworks. I don’t log network reqs so I don’t know exacts, but it’s using 25kb every 3 days or so, so it’s doing something.
Also in Australia and it shows that to me as well
But going into my app list and showing system does show it
Isn’t this the same country that made the drinking age 21 because of car accidents?
Um ackshually 🤓
The reason people on Lemmy do that is because everybody on Lemmy is just an idiot, except me of course - I am not an idiot. So that’s why I reply with multiple paragraphs over minor things.
See, replying to people with long winded ranty, over pedantic messages is likely to make them realise they’re actually an idiot and don’t know what they’re talking about. Regardless of whether all the posted is just a 1 sentence meme referencing the OP, and, say, the office, it’s just not good enough. They need to learn to be smarter.
So in closing, the reason this always happens to you and all the other lemmings here is because I’m actually smarter than you lot are actually. If you just started prefacing your jokes with 47 paragraphs of explanatory text, clearly explaining that you actually aren’t an actual idiot this wouldn’t actually happen to you anymore.
Git gud
It is indeed. I’ve got no clue what it’s like here, but I know in the old community on the red alien site, just about everything on uplifting news was something like “7 Year old boy sells 75,000 glasses of lemonade to pay for sick mums cancer treatment”. Something that seems uplifting for the first 3 seconds then just becomes extremely depressing the more you think about it.
The news article was posted in ABoringDystopia and someone made a joke about how it should be cross posted to here, and I guess OP took it seriously
It’s the hyperlink in the middle of the website that’s dead not the website itself. Not related to not having a HTTPS cert
I briefly listened to podcasts on Spotify til I realised they inserted ads despite me being a paying member. I don’t really listen to podcasts at all anymore, but when I do I usually listen to YouTube ones since adblock + sponsorblock = zero ads and interruptions
Spotify inserts their own ads into every podcast, regardless of whether you have premium or not. Then on top of that the podcasters themselves usually insert either ads or sponsorships into it too. I’ve seen countless podcasts do this now. In the worst cases that feels something like this: ad (by spotify) > introduction and depending on the podcaster potentially ads there too > barely any content > sponsorship > barely any content > ad (by spotify) > barely any content > podcast break and either sponsorship or ads by the podcaster > repeat for 2nd half
It always makes me chuckle a bit how internet censorship (at least in western countries and on a personal level (school and work networks excluded)) is almost always just done through DNS. I mean I’m sure not going to be the one to tell them how laughably ineffective that is, but it’s just funny.
