That’s what we tried during fuck spez protests. Spez kicked the mods off and enacted new ones. Which makes mods shitty or kicks good mods out and enact shitty mods.


You can click accept. I think they didn’t force redirect to https

Where do you live that you find women computer scientists to be the dominant population?


I’m currently doing comp sci but have always debated doing comp eng or ee. However, I don’t want to do comp eng or ee as a career, just more as a side hobby. So I’m sticking with comp sci and I’ll do all the comp eng and ee stuff at home.





I like them because they’re really cool and helpful. They have amazing documentation which helped me get my website up and running.


I use porkbun but I don’t know how they handle this situation.


The ones who know this and still want to better society by teaching are real heroes.


What’s DST?

Edit: oh it means Daylights Savings Time


Wait what? I’m tryna enter this field because I heard it was chill


I wonder if anybody at my uni uses lemmy

Edit: Anybody from cal poly pomona feel free to comment below



Free my boys they did nothing wrong. Also, I thought the US doesn’t go after you with copyright unless you profit from it.

Edit: my bad, they were charging for this. Yeah…

Jetflicks, which charged $9.99 per month for the streaming service, generated millions of dollars in subscription revenue and caused “substantial harm to television program copyright owners,” the Justice Department said Thursday.

Lmao must of us here do the same thing. It’s not hard. I don’t think I’ve written a script for this but it can’t be too difficult.

The group used “sophisticated computer scripts” and software to scour piracy services (including the Pirate Bay and Torrentz) for illegal copies of TV episodes, which they then downloaded and hosted on Jetflicks’ servers, according to federal prosecutors.






What if I only want to download a specific part of it and not more than that. For example a specific episode of curb your enthusiasm and not anything more. Is that possible to stop and seed that episode? I thought by default it will try to download the entire torrent.




How about we make phones repairable. Like maybe removable batteries like in the fairphone.



I remember them canceling it because I remember they said they didn’t have those anymore. Didn’t really see a reason to go to McDonald’s anymore


Genuine question, are mcwraps a thing? Back when I was younger and used to eat from McDonald’s, that was one of the few things worth getting.


Damn I didn’t realize how artificial it is now. I remember before the protests I can feel the entire platform reposting stuff over and over with the same content. Pretty much the only good subs are the small niche subs, but those large ones are atrocious.



I guess you can install it if that’s an issue then.



The OS is not a problem I can guarantee you that. Fedora is a fine operating system


I have disabled autocorrect in my (android) keyboard settings. That disables it system wide, works for me.


What’s wrong with 10 years swiftui experience? Is it because it hasn’t been around for 10 years?




There was an article that caught Microsoft’s own IT support use this script to activate a customer’s computer so I guess Microsoft approves of it.

Edit: sauce



Crucial and wd are usually the cheapest and they’re reputable


There are so many forks though right? Hopefully they all keep going. I only found out about movie-web a couple months ago and it’s pretty cool.


Most of the time, if you disable javascript, it may work or if you use the archive.is site, I think it’s called, then it works.


iPhone to Android (DeGoogled), whats it like?
**Intro** This post is inspired by a [post](https://lemm.ee/post/2244512?scrollToComments=true) titled "Android to iPhone, whats it like? (Update)" by @CleoTheWizard@beehaw.org. I grew up with an iPad and desktop computers and my family members also had Apple products. When I had the chance to purchase my first phone I did lots of research, I looked up the best smartphones at the time, I saw videos from Marques Brownlee, EverythingApplePro, Unbox Therapy, etc. It was a tough decision between Samsung S7 but I ended up getting the iPhone 7. Apple was all the rage at school, I got hooked into the ecosystem, even bought the first Airpods, used iMessage, and all the other Apple stuff. Their UI is very polished. I was even an iOS beta tester all 4 years I had it. **iPhone Experience** 2 years ago, my iPhone 7 started to have severe battery issues and so I decided it was time to upgrade. I also did research on my phone choices at the time too. This time it was between the iPhone 13 and Samsung S22. I did a bunch of research on this one too, much like my previous phone and ended up choosing the iPhone 13. I preordered the phone right when it opened but then I changed my mind, I wanted a different color, so I canceled it but the color was gone. So, I ordered the Samsung S22. However, when I was doing my research, I got into privacy and security and the r/degoogle subreddit. So I saw these solutions like CalyxOS and GrapheneOS. I then cancelled that Samsung S22 order. I was amazed, I saw how private and secure these solutions were without even having to touch Google or Apple. Stuff like the Aurora Store and Fdroid sounded like really cool stuff. I cancelled my Samsung S22 order and bought a used Pixel 5, because I didn't want to directly support Google. **CalyxOS on Android Experience** I started off with CalyxOS because GrapheneOS sounded really hardcore and hard to use. The experience was amazing. I really liked Netguard and the firewalls for the apps. I used ProtonVPN, ProtonMail, Bitwarden, Signal. My ecosystem of Foss, privacy, and security was complete. However, after a year or so of using the OS, it started getting buggy. My distinctly remember that my volume would magically keep on raising to the max volume, it was a terrible bug. I would watch videos or listen to music and it will shoot up to 100% like someone was holding the power button. I tried to look up answers on this issue and couldn't find any solutions so I decided to try out GrapheneOS. **GrapheneOS on Android Experience** I figured I heard a lot about this amazing project and so I should get on it before my device is no longer supported. I think I'm about a year into using GrapheneOS and I can say that it is amazing. It felt like a more refined deGoogled OS. I felt like CalyxOS was more like a few devs coming together and throwing some security tools and hardening it a bit but GrapheneOS has a much larger and dedicated team and truly making it the most private and secure Android operating system. With the compartmentalizing of Google Play Services or whatever it's called. I even found out that when using Location, they have their own SUPL and PSDS proxy servers. Instead of using Netguard, GrapheneOS has network permission toggles much like for mic and cam access. It's truly the best phone OS I have ever used. People can safely use Google Play Store like nothing happened and all the information is segregated and protected. It's been pretty stable and I couldn't be happier. **TLDR and Recommendations** That being said, iOS has its strength and weaknesses. Apple being very locked down and hard to break and mess up, Android being less refined and even more so the more you branch out away from Google. Would I change what I did? Not really, all of this helped me gain experience and evolve as a person. Would I recommend it to other people? I recommend GrapheneOS, if you are tech savvy and want to mess with phones a bit. The argument is fairly similar between the argument between Windows and Linux. Do you want to use something better and free you'll need to play around with or use something locked and just works at the cost of freedom, privacy, and security? The official websites can probably explain it better than me: https://calyxos.org/ https://grapheneos.org/faq
