Roku loves auto changing to really innapropriate shit after the kid appropriate episode ends.

For example, start an episode of Mittens and Pants for four year old, at end of episode, instead of playing next episode, it switched to Married With Children.


From your first paragraph I was expecting something from the old degen meta like "naked yoga" or "transparent haul" or whatever they're currently doing... Or maybe some of the brainrot genai content that's been booming on kids tv

Kinda surprised you consider a completely banal sitcom to be problematic for children. I mean I'd expect the kids to think it's boring and not get any of the subplot... But it's completely family safe?


The kid is four. There is a difference between safe and appropriate. The recommender could at least suggest something in the same genre. It could also have suggested a deep dive into financial markets, not unsafe content for kids, but also not kid appropriate either.

In my experience, electronic tuners suck at accurately detecting the note played.They often pick up harmonics as the note.

The low b on my 5 string bass is often identified as an f by electric tuners.

They also just aren't very accurate when they do detect the right note. I've never used a tuner where my cello is actually in tune when it says it is, always requires tweaking.


Got the same, Firefox on lineageos.

I was the main outreach person for a small org last year. Something like this could have been useful.

There are problems with your site that would have stopped me from signing up.

The grey text on a grey background hurts my eyes. In general, dark mode isn't ever gonna get my cash because it hurts my eyes.

You require my PII before letting me try it. (I can get ai written letters from copilot.Microsoft.com without entering any PII.) I'm sure you have to worry about people using your tokens, but I'm more worried about yet another tech company spamming me. Also, need to know that the the letters don't read like slop before committing.

It's also a problem for me that the $15 plan doesnt allow exporting. If I have to copy/paste, I can just use copilots site.

With those problems fixed, I would have been willing to get the $15 plan, would also be willing to suggest it to other nonprofits in my area too.


Thinkpads have track points, macs don't.

That benchmark is really important to me due to RSI. Track points save me a buttload of hand pain.


interesting, I had to stop using my trackpoint because it was giving me rsi in my index finger. the track pad hasn't given me any issues.

Same here, had to stop using the trackpoint (after maybe 10-15 years of heavy usage). And macbook trackpads are awesome.

Same. I used to be ride-or-die for my Thinkpad Trackpoint™ keyboards, I even had an external USB one. Eventually I started to feel the RSI in the top of my hand. Haven't had any issues with a Macbook trackpad.

It's all about not doing the same thing, whatever that same thing may be. I switch between trackball and mouse as each one gets a bit uncomfortable.

I'm also convinced that trackpoints themselves are stiffer and less comfortable to use than they used to be in the older thinkpads

Ever since the T450 the trackpoint has been awful.

Can't replace the nob anymore either, as the convex knob was arguably the best


What do you mean when you say you can't replace the knob?

It comes off on my T14s Gen 1 and the T14s Gen 5 that replaced it.


I had the opposite issue. Trackpoints stated hurting my hand because it requires significantly more force than the Mac's touchpad.

Graphene doesnt even support all usable pixels. My pixel 3a isn't supported, but is by eos, lineage, and mobian (if you don't need volte).

Your phone is too old, it doesn't get any security updates anymore since years now. Idk why you even still use it?

My phone isnt too old, it still gets updates on Lineageos. I've got no reason to replace it.

It gets Android OS feature updates not security/firmware updates. GOS aims to be the most secure OS possible without compromise so they aren't supporting devices without them.

Pixel 3a only offered 3 years of security updates. Current GOS supported devices support up to 7 years.


I always use the lineageos devices page as a guide to find a phone.

hey, thanks!


My op 7 pro didn't require using their form in any way.

I did have to be careful to buy the variant supported by lineageos. (I think the t mobile version of this phone does require using op form, which I've heard rarely works.)


I didn't know about ddg's noai subdomain, normal ddg has become unusable with all the ai shit they constantly shove down your throat.

Also, their ai makes copilot look good.


Clawsand SeaMonkey both have a more reasonable design. (SeaMonkey did a piss poor job picking screenshots for their webpage...)

Claws, that’s the one I remember.
