I agree with the article. Gen Z are more open to sharing their life with the world. I wouldn't say early generations just swallowed the bullshit. They just didn't have a platform to express it to the masses. In the 70s or 80s if you got fired, maybe you reacted the same way, demanding a reason and expressing your frustration. But the only people who witnessed that, were the ones in the room and later on your buddies when you told them the story.

That sounds cool as hell.

In the case of my wife's family, if we make plans, most of them are guaranteed to show up late. We've made it a habit to plan things for 30 minutes to an hour before we actually want to start because we know they'll be late. Being a veteran, it drives me crazy. If I'm not a few minutes early, I feel like I'm late.

I've never owned an Apple device in my life, but I would consider buying this for $200. That's more than worth what you're getting.

$3,500 is a joke though. I could spend less than that building an absolute beast of a gaming PC and get orders of magnitude more use out of it.

There will be ads everywhere.

Too late.

Yeah, I agree. I don't understand that part. I just want to be able to change the theme. I don't need anyone else to know that I did.

Even though I have the exact version mentioned in this post, I have been unable to find any flags in the debug menu that will enable the ability to change colors in a chat conversation. For some reason neither the post or the telegram channel it links to, do not mention which flags to enable. I've seen it mention on other platforms that "bugle.enable_custom_themes" is the specific flag, however that does not exist on the current beta version as far as I can tell. The version I have and the one mentioned in the post is messages.android_20240125_01_RCO0.phone.openbeta_dynamic.

If anyone has a suggestions, please let me know.

If I'm on my computer, I use Push Bullet. It sends the link directly to my phone but I can also go back to the Push Bullet app anytime and find it. If I'm on my phone, I just keep that tab open on Chrome until I read it.

I wonder if they'll try to get Perseverance close enough to get some photos to analyze what happened. I was looking at the Map on the mission page and it looks like it's in an area of sand dunes so maybe a little risky to try and go through that.

Side note: If you google "mars ingenuity" you can click on the little guy and see him flying around mars.

Sorry. I fixed it. For some reason when I added the image it removed the link I had.

Trump is pretty dumb, but I don't think he's dumb enough to do that. Jon would eviscerate him.

 

This place looks like heaven for film nerds. I'd give anything to spend the day here.

I'm kind of a noob at this so I just want to make sure I'm on the right track. Most of my experience is centered around using public trackers and qbitorrent with a VPN on my laptop and Android phone (using flud).

I would like to get started using Jellyfin to serve up media in my house and occasionally remotely with my phone. I have an older HP desktop that was formerly a business PC. I am currently resetting it back to a fresh install (probably Windows 10). I was thinking of putting Jellyfin on there and setting up Tailscale. I have already tested setting this up on a different computer just to learn the setup process and I got it working and was able to remote connect with my phone. I have Cox cable internet and I'm using their provided modem/wifi gateway so I probably don't have many options for customizing that other than port-forwarding. I also don't really need to set up any automation to download media automatically at this time. I basically want to be able to download movies the way I currently do and put them on the Jellyfin machine. What else do I need to know/do? What am I missing? and will I be able to just pull up Jellfin on my phone and cast media to my smart TV's (they do not have Roku btw)?

 

Saw this in a parking lot today. I feel bad for the bee but that's pretty mildly interesting.

 

I guess GIFs aren't supported but starting today, when I send an emoji in Google Messages (beta) it continuously spins around and bounces. I'm not sure how I feel about that.

EDIT: Looks like there is a website that details all the animations. https://googlefonts.github.io/noto-emoji-animation/

 

My son and I found this at Five Below. It's a plastic pitcher that comes with the mix. Nothing fancy. You just add water, mix it up and pour it in hot oil for about a minute on each side. Came out great! Next we're gonna make our own mix from scratch.

 

My wife has a Pixel 7 and she prefers to use the on screen navigation buttons however on the game she likes to play (wheel of fortune), some of the in game buttons are behind the nav buttons making it impossible to press them. She said this started after the June update. Any ideas on what we can do? Seems to only be an issue with this game. Should I contact the developers?

I love the weight of it and I always get compliments when people borrow it from me. Solid pen for $10!
