Smart TVs take snapshots of what you watch multiple times per second in c/technology@lemmy.world

So what do we do when smart TVs force us to connect to the Internet, and refuse to work until we do?

This is exhausting. We're speeding towards a horrible, privacy-less future.

Logging into Lemmy with mlmym? (lemmy.ml)
 

I'm running Docker on a Linux Mint installation, and I'm able to use mlmym to view various Lemmy instances, but I can't login to my Lemmy account using mlmym. I've entered my credentials, but then it just takes me back to the homepage without logging me in. What am I missing?

Yep. Don't let them get away with pinning everything on Trump. The rest of the GOP is just as complicit.

Me, except for the parts about being focused, calm, and ready for anything that the world throws at me.

Their recommendations are always a bit shit anyway, so I'm not too bothered about this on a personal level.

The Internet used to feel so vast and unpredictable. It was if there was always something genuinely new to discover, if you just stumbled onto it. Now it's just "Oh shit, I have to sort through a bunch of crappy blogs and memes in the hopes of finding an interesting comment."

Never going to pass under the current climate. I'm hoping for a blue wave in 2024, but preparing for the worst.

It's been said many times before, but it's worth repeating: Trump's the symptom, not the cause.

Now we know where George Lucas got the inspiration for Yarael Poof.

Increasing thumbnail size on the front page? (lemmy.ml)
 

I'm accessing Lemmy via Firefox on a PC, and I've found that the thumbnails on my front page are too small for me to read any text that they contain. Is there a way for me to increase the size so that I don't have to manually click on every thread to see what the image contains?
