Try out Privacy.com for online shopping. Also use gift cards where possible.

For physical, cash is king, followed by gift cards. Visa prepaid cards are a solid choice, but not really practical.

Failing that, I'm not sure you can find a private card, not that I've looked.

Yes, let's get the kid started with dark humor.

This really makes you appreciate the bazillion factors that went to making Earth a place where life can thrive.

Really sucks humans are wreaking it, and the only ones who can make a significant impact to reverse course don't care.

This is like one of those impossible "wife" questions with no good answer and no clean escape.

"Hey honey, if a clone of me ever replaced me, you'd be able to tell the difference right."

"Of course dear"

"Well how"

"Umm, how about XYZ"

"What if they copied XYZ too"

"ZYX?"

"ZYX! Is that what you think of me!!"

Yup, and if this guy chose to skip the donuts he may have regreted it for some time, especially if all the donuts fly to space in search of their hole.

Its a similar problem with Proton for me. Proton doesn't even let you sync to 3rd party cal app on the free tier.

If you're going to paywall basic functionality, that just prevents me from trying it for a while and eventually become so tied to it, it's difficult to break free. Google had the right plan from the get-go.

No Simba, if they were all allowed to die naturally, there would be too many of them to share the grass. They would die fighting themselves for food, a miserable existence. Only a truley dumb species would ignore the natural order and allow their own to die of hunger.

That lawsuit could hold up in court, and I wouldn't be mad. Fuck MS

Could be some form of love. There's some crazy out there.

So you're telling me to fill my pokedex, I just had to rob a pokecenter?

Same, oddly enough the app name and icon didn't change for me. Still K-9 in app settings too.

The solution is Settings -> Account preferences -> Show read posts?

Thanks [email protected]


I've posted a few time, but the post list always remains empty for some reason.

I can see other people posts on their profiles.

 

Basically looking a calandar that stays on the deaktop, and can show events (Otherwise I'd just use a wallpaper). I don't need much interaction with it, if any, essentially just open the actaul calandar program. Sync with iCal is a big plus.

While FOSS is ideal, I'm open to anything free (that can be firewalled or is actually private (unlikely, I know))

I found one that used windows 7 widgets, but it was too small and didn't seem to work right anyways.

Android Tablets (lemmy.world)

Does anyone have good experience with android tablets, and possibly replacing the OS? I see some interesting options from Google, lenovo, one plus, etc... I imagine the pixel one will be the easiest to load a new OS to, but I also wonder about the tablet support of things like lineage or graphine.

The hardware doesn't have to be groundbreaking, just good enough to be my "travel laptop" for movies, comics and general interneting. I don't want a laptop, as I often like to sit in chair/bed to read comics or watch movies and a keyboard would make that awkward.

One of my main concerns is the update support - my iPad has been getting updates since 2017, a lot of the android manufactures are promising a pathetic 3 to 5 years. I don't want to be "software bricked" in 5 years (I.e apps eventually requiring an Android version I cannot update to)
