EDIT: never fucking mind I didn't read the fucking post title, I only read the community and body text There are MORE ADS LIKE THIS? crazy ass shit

here's the original body text of my comment:

No, people assumed it is Coca Cola because it says Coca Cola all over it. Here's the report.

Fluency is driven by the % of people recognising the brand by the end of ad.

Here's my proposed ad script:

Look at this LoveIs® chewing gum. I am chewing this LoveIs® chewing gum. Gotta love this LoveIs® chewing gum. I LOVE LoveIs® CHEWING GUM.

What do you think the ad's about after the whole thing?

EDIT: see reply

Also, their ad rating business partner said 98% of people recognize this as a Coca Cola ad. By the end. So 2% of people didn't even get it.

I was also bored one day and made this image in response to someone sending the same thing but about Lidl ATB gordon

Ukrainian here, smaller town. Most stuff is purchased on a street market a.k.a. bazaar. But there are also two competing grocery chains, Tavria V and ATB. It's like RED and BLU. Left twix / right twix situation. They are everywhere. Anything that isn't no-name (and is food) is probably cheaper there than at a bazaar. Though I once saw them sell tiny ass stollen loafs for 12 whole bucks because "it's a slightly niche foreign recipe so it must be expensive" (and same with pretty much everything else in there). Might not sound like a lot but this is a week worth of (other) food, idk how much stollen costs for neighboring countries but went on amazon.de and scrolled for a little bit to find a similar thing for 2 euro.

Bigger cities have one or two really large (3+ story) buildings, which are renting spaces for the two competiting grocery chains, arcade halls, casinos, pizza/burger stuff and small stores selling random foods by weight. When one enters, all sense of time is lost.

Plot twist: it's using 2 gigs worth of frameworks and won't even begin rendering the page before login.

Most apps print stuff in the same loop as everything else, so stuff like alacritty might help it a little bit. It's not really that significant most of the time, however.

A little bit more about the sponsor on HackerNews.

If you are a lazy bastard not wanting to click this, basically there a quite a few issues with the main goal of Hack Club (not the fiscal sponsorship sidequest), such as not using a privacy policy for kids for 11 years, many leaks of said data and misclassifying workers in at least 2024.

I did that before just getting Arch.

Also, I wonder if KDE on Ubuntu stuff still includes that FUCKASS FONTCONFIG FILE THAT MAKES EVERYTHING LOOK SHIT I SPENT 4 HOURS LOOKING FOR

Well, there's a web installer (Chromium only because it's using very unsafe features of course) that is used by ProtonAOSP and GrapheneOS currently. LineageOS people don't want to add that because it's impossible to troubleshoot if it doesn't work, would make Firefox users feel left out, and because the normal installation procedure is a matter of some tech literacy.

And there are hundreds of native wrappers around fastboot (look up "fastboot GUI") and ones specifically for installing ROMs (look up "LineageOS installer". All of which break in all sorts of ways. The only example I can think of for a somewhat good one is the embedded for MiTool, the tool specifically for officially unlocked Xiaomi devices. Well, good luck getting a Xiaomi phone officially unlocked, however.

Almost forgot the thing I said "I have news for you" for. The closest thing to what you described (that is guaranteed to work) is opening the LineageOS website and blindly following instructions there. They are really specific and it would be really difficult to misunderstand.

Bro I got news for you

[–] ApertureUA@lemmy.today 3 points 1 week ago

Despite sleep (the "wake up on every network event" kind of sleep) not being implemented in most PostMarketOS devices, I fucked around with my Redmi and found that the battery lasts much much longer on standby (if I don't forget to close the apps because they won't unload themselves)

If you have a whole ass Android container like Waydroid (instead of stuff like android-translation-layer being developed), you can just put MicroG there. Or whole ass Google services, if for some reason you decided it's a good idea. It's just Android.

But yeah, hardware support suckzzzz
