I have a small camera (a little smaller than a phone) that can do photos and videos.
The phone will be powered off before leaving the house and only turned on if absolutely needed to make a call. Hopefully that’s enough for no GPS/cell tower tracking, right? Don’t need to wrap it in foil?
There are so many options. If you’re looking for a free and open source wiki-style setup, a couple I haven’t seen mentioned in the thread yet are Zim Desktop Wiki and Feather wiki (hmm looks like their web certificate is expired at the moment)
I’m watching Freetube right now, still working. v0.23.3
The external player thing has never worked for me, at least when I set it to VLC, which just displays an error. I must be missing something.
It’s happening to me, too. No VPN. They always fix issues like this pretty quickly (couple days or so). It’s always a constant battle to handle youtube’s ongoing attempts to block them.
I’ll check and see if I can do that with this one!
I should have thought of that. Thanks! Ironically, I have a very old lead-acid UPS in the basement that I’ve been kind of afraid to plug in again after all this time.
Why removing the battery? I was thinking that could be one good thing about using a laptop is that in a way it has its own UPS.
I just installed Librewolf today, using it now. Being a fork of FF it makes a very smooth transition.
Yep after all that’s how musk did it by using trump as the symbolic figurehead
I can’t find a place to define filters, only blocks for users/communities/instances. Does it exist in the default browser client and I’m missing something?
Exactly. Every time I see someone post that “akshully, chronological order is also an algorithm” (which I see a lot), it makes me think of the old “what you are calling Linux is akshully GNU/Linux” thing. Please people, let that go.
Because you know perfectly well that when we talk about “algorithms” we’re specifically referring to corporate social media manipulative algorithms designed to increase engagement, NOT a simple sort of posts by date or number of upvotes. mkay?
I’ve been able to reproduce some, like the “how to carry <insert anything here> across a river” one where it always turns it into the fox, goose and grain puzzle.
But generally on anything that’s gone viral, by the time you try to reproduce it someone has already gone in and hard-coded a fix to prevent it from giving the same stupid answer going forward.
Are there Lemmy mobile apps? I don’t even know, I only access it via the browser. But if there are, maybe request that feature.
I don’t know if there is a way you’re supposed to be able to do it, but one thing you can do is right-click the image and pick Inspect from the context menu, which will open a panel with the HTML of the image highlighted, and part of that will be the alt text if there is any.
Also I have a Firefox extension that adds “Copy Alt text” to the context menu when you right-click an image. I’ve used that and pasted into a text editor, which usually works as well.
Both of those are inconvenient, but at least you can find it. But there should be a button on the image to view it easily like there is on Mastodon.
My car is a 2012, I’ll be holding onto it until it falls apart.
I think it’s ironic that the alternatives to Android (graphene, calyx) only fully work on Google phones.
