do you know for a fact that is him and not just someone using his name? either way this is fairly harmless

im not sure the message has much power since none of major aggressors are catholics. or not practising catholics at least. why would they care what this guy is saying?

yes so what. the title is "1 month without..."

he could have gone a month without using youtube and then posted a video on youtube and he still wouldnt be contradicting himself

a "poor mans" backup can be useful for things like this, movie/tv/music collections, and will only be a few MB instead of TB.

if things go south at least you can rebuild your collection in time. obviously if theres some rare files that were hard to get then you can backup those ones, but even at that it will probably still be a small backup

its cheap when you consider the desk could still be fully functional 100 years from now. good luck getting a chromebook to last even a quarter of that

one of the main reasons i switched to posteo was that it only costs 1 euro a month. i dont use email a whole lot so i couldnt really justify paying whatever proton were charging

no im not going to waste my time discussing stats with someone who thinks "american" is a language

[–] dave@lemmy.wtf 3 points 3 months ago (7 children)

a lack of good education is another thing you guys seem to be copying from americans

Wasp uses Python?! does that mean you can make apps and watch faces using python as well?

i had my eye on bangle.js for this reason, to make custom apps, but i havnt been too pushed about having to write them using javascript

i used the xiaomi mijia 360 back when i was doing mapillary a few years ago. it was cheaper than the gopro as i remember.

it was a bit finicky to use overall but it got the job done at the same time. its not standalone camera like the gopro so you have to keep it connected to the app while youre using it. the app was very basic and whether they have kept it updated and working with the latest android is something you would want to check. the xiaomi desktop software that you use to convert the images to flat photos would crash after doing a few hundred so you have to manually restart the process a few times to get all of them converted.

heres an example of what the quality is like. this is on a monopod sticking out the back window of my car, with the 2 lenses pointing to the left and right side of the car

 

if youve ever been put off by the thoughts of having to install self-hosted web apps or manage a cloud VPS or a DIY server at home, then pikapods might be worth checking out

they make it very easy to get up and running. just sign up (they give you 5 euro free credit to get started), install the apps you want, then you will be charged a certain amount depending on how many apps youre using

theres about 90 apps to choose from but some notable ones would be Immich for photos, Joplin for note-taking, Blinko for something more like Google Keep or Pinterest, FreshRSS for managing RSS feeds, Wallabag for saving articles to read later, Navidrome for running your own music server, Nextcloud as an alternative to Google Drive or OneDrive

im running wallabag and freshRSS myself and theres not much to comment on really, they were both very straight forward to set up!
