Social media in general was also a lot smaller back then too.

Until the iPhone got popular you had to use a computer to access it. And back then we didn’t really trust sleep mode very much so you had to wait 2 minutes for windows to boot when you wanted to go on the net. VS right now I’m standing in from of my clothes not getting ready for work for 45 seconds.

At only 82% I’m going to say no.

Not even an exaggeration, I feel physically ill just thinking about it.

99% of the time water in my water bottle and nothing else.

The 1% of the time it’s not its water nearby + coffee or a soda.

The concept of having more than 1 drink other than water is bewildering, and honestly disgusting to me.

Modern phone cameras are 99% software at this point. If you took one phones camera and put it onto another phone without adapting the software then the photos will look like ass.

You can’t just unplug something from device X and connect it to device Y. The connectors aren’t standardized. And even if they were they wouldn’t fit because the placement is different. In theory you could take the CPU off of one device and plant it onto another. But have fun with that BGA micro soldering. Plus the connections will be different unless you picked a phone with the exact same CPU. Ram is the only thing you could potentially upgrade. But like good luck.

You’d legitimately have an easier time making a new phone from scratch than trying to piece together 3 different phones.

If you need the money then start looking for jobs now, and quit when you’ve got something.

The size of the app doesn’t matter, it’s what the app does.

Say you managed to uninstall your only launcher. Getting a new one on there would be a pain, but is doable. But uninstalling the fucking massive DJI app? Nah that’s nothing.

I take it this only works for A. games and B. modern systems?

I’m more interested in software than games, especially on older machines. But managing it has always been a pain. I went through the trouble of making a zip disk of old software, and a nice GUI for navigating it. But I’d love something a bit smarter for these old machines.

IMO that is one of the biggest issues with lemmy. If you make one post then potentially 1/3 of people see it. If you cross post it to all communities then lemmy shitty algorithm likes to put all 3 posts right next to each other and that gets annoying fast. Then if someone makes a comment on community As post, but you only picked Bs post then now you miss out.

Jan 6 was not a good one. And I fear there’s another coming with this next election.

256 is plenty for me until I started adding lossless music. I don’t normally store a lot actually on my phone at any given time.

My current phone is 1tb mostly for the memes. It even when I had an android phone with an SD card slot I didn’t bother using it since SD cards are fiddly garbage.

If reinstalling windows didn’t fix the issue then you most likely have a hardware issue. You could always make a linux live USB and see if that works. The live USB won’t touch your HDD so if the HDD is the problem you won’t know until after you’ve installed linux.

Before you do that download a program like hwinfo and look at your temps. Specifically CPU temp. Somewhere towards the bottom it will tell you stats about your HDD as well and it may include what SMART thinks your HDD’s health is.

There are two types of BBQ: KC and wrong.

If it wasn’t for lossless music, and storing about 75 gigs of drone footage on my phone I don’t use a lot of my storage typically. The 256 default is enough for me. But since I imported this phone I just said fuck it and went for the 1TB model and I’m sure as hell gonna use that storage. Apps bloating to use a shit ton of storage? Fuck it I don’t care.

Also I’ve always hated having the two tier storage for my phone. When 64 gig SD cards were a lot for a phone I had one and I hated it. It was only good for music, and offloading some photos. But it was always a pain getting most photo apps to recognize and treat each folder as one unified library so I’d always have half of my photos “inaccessible”. My last phone with an SD card slot was my galaxy note 3 from about the same time. After that I just started buying phones with enough built in storage.

You wouldn’t happen to be from Ohio?

Yes but what are they doing to get all these spam calls? Are they petty and signed OP up for a bunch of spam?

Honestly fuck anyone who stores things in ovens.

Guns is certainly a new one, but don’t put plastics in there. Especially if there’s ever a chance that someone else might touch your oven.

What’s the point in buying good sunglasses, and why would I lose a pair?

You like your vision.

You take them most places with you so you have a much higher chance of losing them.

We’ve failed our children by not having any financial education in our schools, let alone good education. Sure in the rich schools you’ll get it. But not in the areas that need it the most. It’s very easy to slip into crippling debt as a middle class American.

But it’s currently too profitable to have poor education. So it’s going to stay that way unless we help out our neighbors.

This is what I liked about working for McDonald’s. Oh it’s 12:01 and you rolled into the drive thru? Nah fuck off we’re closed.
