Couldn’t students just generate a paper with ChatGPT, open two windows wide by side and then type it out in a word document?

Personally I was only 14-16 for like 5 years at most

Can you explain how to do this? I’d make the switch, honestly. Not a super techy person, but I’m willing to learn if it means a Linux phone.

We do occasionally see a small surcharge in the US when using a card, but that’s regardless of method (swipe, insert, or tap). Very small businesses will often charge 1-5% for any debit or credit purchase, and cash price is the listed price. But again, that’s not tap specific

I’ve honestly never considered using my bank through a mobile browser. Yeah, it I can do that I’d be fine on that front.

Sniffies is completely dead here, and the dudes that are on it are gross. Grindr isn’t much better, but since everyone’s on it you can occasionally find people who are willing to use protection or hosting someone other than some bushes. I’ll try way droid and see if it works. If it doesn’t, I googled it and it says you can use Grindr from desktop if you pay… I may end up having to do that if I made the switch.

Which leaves cash app as the biggie. I’ll try waydroid, but if it doesn’t work I’ll probably end up needing to keep android or switching to iOS (I hate iPhones:( ), or maybe even getting a second phone I use exclusively for cash app. No sim, just my wifi hotspot (can you do a wifi hotspot with a Linux phone yet?). In order to prevent overdrafts and accidental charges, I never spend directly from my bank account. I transfer exactly what I’ll need for each purchase to cash app before the transaction and shop like that. Keeps me aware, and no accidental charges or surprises.

What’s the benefit to this one over others?

Help a non-techy out. I’ve fully switched my computers to Linux (fedora workstation, silver blue, and ubuntu). Been Linux only for several years now. Silverblue is probably my favorite. I’m willing to make the switch for my phone, too. But there are a few things I’m pretty reliant on:

My banking apps, cash app, and, embarrassing as it may be to admit, Grindr.

Any chance of getting those?

I’ve never seen a surcharge for tap to pay in the US. I’m not sure about elsewhere, but whether I’m tapping my car, my phone, or my watch I have never seen any surcharge from the retailer, my banks, or from Google.

Haven’t heard of that. Searched it and saw mistral ai. Is that the right one?

You rock! Thank you!

It works for me on Whatsapp, but not on Eternity, the app I use for Lemmy. Wonder why. Thank you for answering though! I’m old enough that I rarely actually use emoji, and just go with emoticons, but this is cool to know!

I will completely forget to come back and check this, but if you get an answer, would you mind hollering at me and letting me know?

When you say export, is there a tool for that for, like, mass exporting your subs? Or do I have to manually search each one and sub again?

I ask because I’ve been meaning to switch to my alt, but I made a point of subbing to as many communities as possible to make Lemmy more fun to use for me, and good lord, it’s a lot to do.

Question. I am a computer dumb. Is this scary for me? Lol.

10 years ago me and my mom worked jobs from home. I did CenturyLink (phone company) and HSN and QVC. She did dish network, directv and Eddie Bauer. It was easier then to find wfh jobs than it is now. Then it was unusual, but no stigma. Now it’s like you’re an evil clown bent on molesting the village’s sheep if you even suggest it. -_-

God, thank you so much for asking this. It’s been driving me insane, and I didn’t even consider that I could be a togglable feature!

But an excellent band name. Imagine “chemo for the soul” by Living Drugs, feat. 4skin

I’m not a power user or anything, and don’t understand most of the things in computing. I’m a basic user with mostly basic needs. But the only thing that ever gets me back on windows is when my college requires a program specific to a class. Linux is just freaking better, even at the very basic, mostly doing browser based shit level.

Yes. But smaller, and with a screen where the keyboard should be, and no bezel between the screens. Media consumption device, not something for any real productivity. Very lightweight, good for watching youtube or hulu, but clamshell so it protects the screen.
