Continue what you’re doing on the desktop and set up beeper with only your Facebook account to handle messages from your phone. It’s still not great, but I think it’s the best you’re going to get. You’re really only gaining Facebook, not seeing where you’re connecting from. Also, Beeper is just a pretty front end to a matrix server with a bridge connecting to Facebook Messenger. You could totally run it yourself if you wanted; check out the “self-host” link near the bottom of the page.

AppleTV client at some point?

Can’t remember the full details of the deal, but I seem to recall a story about how Apple approached Intel to manufacture a low-powered processor for mobile (for the first iPhone). At the time, Intel didn’t see money in mobile processors and passed on the deal. Additionally, for years, Apple asked for more powerful chips for the MacBooks. At the time, the iPads were surpassing MacBooks in speed on some tasks. Finally, Apple decided that since they were already designing their own silicon for iPhones and iPads, they might as well just do the same for the MacBooks as well since Intel couldn’t keep up.

Again, this is largely from memory. I can’t remember the source, so take it with a grain of salt.

Exactly this. It’s crowd-sourced replacements for thumbnails and titles to more accurately reflect the content of the video. I only shared it because of the mention that the video was very much a clickbait title and thumbnail.

It’s crazy how much I actually use this tool. 99% of the time, it can figure out exactly what I was trying to accomplish.

Thanks! Will give it a try.

Install this and exclude it from all search results.

Actually convenient, I use duck duck go so I don’t care if googles the only working engine. So long as I don’t see it. lol.

I installed a plugin months ago to exclude Reddit results from my search results.

Croc just requires each computer to have internet access.

• allows multiple file transfers
• allows resuming transfers that are interrupted

I’m not a part of any large channels, just private groups with 3-5 people.

I’d rather use matrix, but Telegram is what everyone is using.

As an iPhone user, I agree with this message. Group chat’s with Android users currently just ran in Telegram or Discord.

Elon’s going to try putting your memories behind a paywall.

Honestly, with wireless charging, I rarely even plug it into the wall anymore. The only time I really use the Lightning connector is when I’m out for extended periods of time and need to plug into a power bank.

Thats the case for most new platforms you get a surge of users and then some titer off and stop using the platform. But don’t look at the small dip look at the massive growth compared to a few months ago.

MOST cars have the fuel door on the left, Costco tends to have more cars queue in the lanes that match up with the left hand fuel door so regardless of what side your fuel door is on grab the lanes with the pump on the right of your car and you’ll get through a bit faster since you can pull it around.
