Shocked CEO in a year: “where did it go wrong”

Customers: points at ads

CEO: “yes, but where did we go so wrong”

Customers: Still pointing


There’s an app for android that does a similar thing called “UntrackMe”


Delicious wisdom. Worth a cross post to !wholesomememes



Well there have been sub’s with almost twice that number of rules…but that user is no longer on Lemmy.


Rule of thumb, if its racist, rude or inflammatory its probably impersonator rather than Dessalines.


Yeah I guess I wasn’t very specific, of course its fine if people are unhappy and want to change services, but the amount of people that pounced on the omitted results from one torrent site without knowing the cause and just used it for self validation is wat I was meaning.


Hopefully the “DDG is turning into google” crowd can STFU now


Put a question mark on my name once more!


This might seem like an odd question, but in real life conversations (like at school/work, staff in a store, social events etc) have you experienced the conversation that seems like it’s going normally, and then suddenly and unexpectedly it seems like the person gets real snappy, or mad, or just stops talking and walks away?


Then again, if you are on Ubuntu 21.10 or 20.04 LTS an early taste is just a **sudo do-release-upgrade -d** away. The only bug I have experienced is having to log in twice, the first time seems to fail after 3 seconds no matter what.

yes, cutting internet access is probably enough…however you may want to have a look at “disable-system-app-bloatware-android”


For battery saving, screen is one of the biggest draws, keep it off or dim if possible. Second, and not realistic for most people (but worth mentioning) is the radios, keep the main radio off with airplane mode and then enable wifi.

For aggressive battery control, I used to use Greenify but a good looking equivalent (that I haven’t used personally) would be SuperFreezZ this will suspend apps when not in use to stop them “phoning home” constantly




It doesn’t seem to do anything useful that you can’t do from “settings”


“Device care” looks like a nasty piece of bloatware designed to suck up metrics for Samsung, in my opinion. A quick skim of googlePlay reviews makes me think I’m not just being a nasty old cynic.


Thunderbird will support matrix protocol out-of-the-box in version 102 (due June) and is available in v91 beta now. I just tried it, you go to *preferences*, *edit config*, add a string "*chat.prpls.prpl-matrix.disable*" and set it to false and matrix becomes an available option in the chats part of your account setup....now to find my old password.....

Ok ive just switched to jerboa now myself, by default it let’s you view Lemmy from a guest account. So its a bit unintuitive but you have to go to the menu @ top left and add account first.


Happy Cake day @dessalines & @nutomic
Wohoo 3 years https://lemmy.ml/u/dessalines https://lemmy.ml/u/nutomic thanks for creating lemmy!

This has got to be one of the stupidest trolls we have had in ages.



“incandescent rage” - Love it. also it probably involves colorful language


They have links on the bottom of their web page to Twitter, Youtube, Facebook, Instagram, and Flikr…I get that thats where people need the most saving but FFS boost the numbers of the good-guys at least


Good article, I find the mechanism to avoid false tripping particularly interesting - In the venus fly trap the first trigger-hair arms a timer and if a second trigger is touched within 20 seconds then the trap closes, if not it saves the energy.


Some concise people might struggle with a slovenly nap unless it has such definition. I think its specified like this to appeal to the target audience.


Canada eh? This will go right over the heads of about 80 percent of Lemmy.


Wow that’s really neat, hope they didn’t get headaches.

I wonder if you mean shtick, a word used in Jewish culture originally from the German Stück (similar to spiel also of German origin)

Heres a wikipedia page on it, but loosely its a rant/roleplay/opinion that someone usually has a close affinity to, it is mostly used in a positive way or humorous self-deprecating manner in my experience.


Not true, this was a joke. Its a karma farming technique used in certain sub reddits. Source - I talked to the user about it.


no problem! I think the settings are able to be set uniquely for the appps…at least they are for lemmur

then change fields for type and sort type now save


He said he believed it and clarely noted it was just his opinion.


Users can select a display name that’s different from their actual username for example “Arthur Besse” is [at]cypherpunks

Additionally since they are not a native pearthchat use you would need to add Lemmy(.ml) to tag the instance of that user.

So @cypherpunks@lemmy.ml should be the format.

Edit:hmm, wonder if its because I’m on lemmur. Try https://lemmy.ml/u/cypherpunks


Pretty good read, with some very relevant points thanks.

There’s been some horrible troll ones in the (negative) high twenties I think.

It may well be a record for a constructive comment though.



When your German family learns English friend gave you *Gift* for your birthday! **o_0** (The English word "Poison" translates to "Gift" in German) Does anyone else know of funny language differences like this?

Past ominous
I wonder if Kryzsztof Penderecki (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Krzysztof_Penderecki) would fit here, specifically "The dream of Jacob" although it may be beyond ominous and more like fever dream :) Its basically the blueprint for modern horror music.
