It’s Microsoft, they probably want you to host a webinar so they can use you to train AI to do it

Something like BookWyrm feels like it’d be perfect to adapt to business reviews

Now that this project exists, I’m sure it’d be relatively trivial to implement in the app

Icky, Steve Mould, and Swell Entertainment? 10/10 Youtube feed

Over time I’ve curated the list of creators I watch, so my recommendations are pretty good at feeding me what I like, though I do usually have to scroll through a lot of junk. And when the recommendations aren’t doing it, I’ll just manually go to a channel I like and find something and the algorithm will quickly adjust.

Patreon takes a cut of your money and gives the rest to the creator. Youtube does the same thing with Premium, plus creators receive a higher rpm from Premium viewers than they do from ads. And people left Reddit because they stopped supporting 3rd party apps. Youtube never supported 3rd party apps, plus there’s no suitable alternative to leave Youtube for.

Also, I’m not completely fine with Youtube Premium, but the pros outweigh the cons enough for me to justify paying for it.

Do I hate giving money to Google? Yes. Do I watch 6+ hours of Youtube a day? Also yes. I almost always have something playing in the background throughout my day, so it’s the one service I’m ok paying for and I don’t have to worry about it breaking like I would with other frontends.

I used to find stuff like this fascinating. Like if collecting my data can help me, why not? But technology has gotten to a point that it’s just straight up creepy how our every single waking moment can be tracked and collected, even if it’s me collecting it. It’s like watching every dystopian sci-fi story come to life in real time.

Can we stop making everything digital? I can’t see a single benefit of turning my license plate into a screen

Rectum? Barely knew 'em

KOSA is the one thing that the “both sides bad” group have going for them. The Democrats true colors really shine with their support of it. I’m well and truly shocked it’s the Republicans who killed it, though I suspect that’s because it wasn’t “rules for thee, not for me” enough for them.

I have a family member who works for AT&T. Run far far away and consider yourself lucky you couldn’t get an interview.

• We’re fucked
• We’ve always been fucked
• Everyone’s always been fucked
• Everyone is close to being really fucked

That’s just not true. It’s transphobic to make it a big issue. Normally when you don’t want to sleep with someone, you don’t go out of your way to tell them and cry about it. You just… don’t sleep with them.

That’s basically how the Android app Tasker works. You do the programming through its UI, but when you export/share your tasks, they’re saved as xml

Defacing art is a historical form of protest. The Suffragettes vandalized multiple paintings which are now memorialized for it.

Not the search engine. The Android app has a feature called App Tracking Protection that blocks trackers in other apps, akin to PiHole, but run on the device.

On Android, using an app like DuckDuckGo or TrackerControl is huge for protecting your data in other apps

The Local Calendar integration stores the calendar on the server running Home Assistant, so as long as you can access the server remotely, you should be able to access it through the Home Assistant app. If you want it stored offline on a mobile device, there’s also an integration for calendars stored in a .ics file which you could sync with something like syncthing.

Home Assistant. I wouldn’t use it just for calendars, but I already had it set up for home automation and calendars are a built in feature.
