I hope not. We’re just at a point where we can emulate Switch games easily

Oh well. Google is dying, I’ll be laughing the whole way

Deezer ARLs and more - https://rentry.org/firehawk52#deezer-arls

Well? Is Google back?

You can get FLAC with a premium ARL. This is what I do.

If you’re at all interested in downloading your music, you could look into deemix.

My first server was a Lenovo Thinkpad T420. It was given to me for free from my job. It did great. Built in screen, mouse/keyboard, and a built in UPS. Eventually I upgraded my server, and my new one has none of those.

If you decide to try one out, please respond here or make a post. I don’t drive more than 2 or 3 times a month, but I really want something like this set up.

There’s openauto, which seems to be an Android Auto emulator. https://bluewavestudio.io/shop/openauto-pro-car-head-unit-solution/

PilotDrive is more interesting. New, and not as powerful, but built from the ground up. https://github.com/lamemakes/pilot-drive

Factorio. And the game before that? Factorio. It’s a good game.

Yeah, that’s horrible. I’ve even met a lot of christians who really hate Catholic people.

I’m hosting Photoprism, now. But man, do I just barely use it. I’m not a photographer, and I always have the worst camera of anyone around me, so I’m never taking pictures. It’s running, and I’m not taking it down. But it did teach me to use docker compose. I switched everything I had after that.

Matrix was one that was hard to justify. It was just too heavy. My dream has always been “use one app for all communication”. I bridged Signal, Discord, and Facebook. Problem number 1 was that SMS is like impossible to set up. Problem 2 no one uses Signal except me and my wife. Problem 3 was that my Facebook got flagged for suspicious activity, and they wanted my ID to recover it. I used this as a chance to ditch Facebook, but I also ditched Matrix at this time. Signal supports SMS, so I could do more with it than Matrix. I’ll probably try again down the line.

My most used service is definitely my music service, Navidrome. You might try it, it’s very light. I used to keep all my files on my phone like you. And my phone had an SD slot, so storage wasn’t an issue. But I couldn’t listen from any of my computers, or at work. After I made the switch, I painstakingly re-‘aquired’ all of my music in FLAC, and have my phone set with a size limit of music to cache, as well as always downloading my favorites.

As I understand, most iphone users do have issues. I remember hearing that people with Androids in their selfies are measurably less likely to match on Tinder

Exactly what I did. I put Lemmy in it’s place

Eastcostitnotes, at least lately. Couldn’t find a good link, so here’s an Instagram. https://www.instagram.com/eastcoastitnotes/

Xkcd is my favorite of all time.

What was fun as a kid was battling. My friend and I would hang out for a day, start a run of Pokemon emerald or diamond/pearl, and meet back the next weekend to battle

I will start pronouncing bike like nike

They can build an activitypub compliant app and service? They don’t have to touch the open source project.

Apple has an amazing amount of influence. They could easily make the platform, and break it in an instance whenever they felt like it.
