Fuck's sake, it had just started to properly settle down and get good

I can definitely bend that pin back without breaking anything... this time

Such a good series, I could watch it for hours

500 homes to be given to homeless under Sadiq Khan's plan to eradicate rough sleeping in c/uk_politics@feddit.uk
[–] TIN@feddit.uk 5 points 1 week ago

I've seen loads of posts from ~grad on my feed saying how China's provision of homes for the homeless is an indicator of advanced civilisation, so presumably they'll be along in a second to tell me the Sadiq is doing a great thing here?

Any... Second... Now

Friendly Reminder in c/fuck_ai@lemmy.world
[–] TIN@feddit.uk 9 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I'm in a really odd position, in that I've always been a futurist and massive tech fan. I thought that I would be signing up for any AI tooling as soon as it appeared, chip in my head, bionic eye, the whole nine singularity yards.

What I've found instead is a disgust with the concept, the way it's been implemented, the big tech arseholes at the top of the money grabbing companies that have driven it all to it's current omnipresent position.

I want my AI, under my control and with my best interests at heart doing helpful things for me at my behest and control. It's what I was promised in all those sci fi books, not this commercial pap.

My mum told be the other day she logged onto a new bank, gave it a 12 character password then couldn't get back in after. When she got through to their customer services they said that it was an 8 character password limit (!), but it just never said on the register screen.

Oh, I've got this far down the comments before realising we were maybe talking about arm based flotation devices and not turds.

DSLR vs phone camera (feddit.uk)
 

I'm going travelling in a week or two and decided to dig out my old Canon 350D dslr, from the early days of consumer digital cameras before the rise of the smartphone.

It's definitely older than I remember, although maybe so am I! 8 mega pixel, with a 512Mb compact flash card.

On the other hand, I have a perfectly serviceable OnePlus 7T, obviously newer, not cutting edge any more but fine.

What do people think? Go retro or stick to the modern?

How to investigate location services issue in app (feddit.uk)
 

There's an app in trying to use, BP pulse, it keeps telling me I need to enable location services and it won't work without it. The thing is that my phone (8 Pro) already has location services switched on, and assigned to this app at the fine detail level. I assume the app is looking for something else but I don't know what.

How do I go about an investigation?

Thanks!

Back action brings up keyboard (feddit.uk)
 

This just started happening today so probably something I've changed in the settings but I don't know what. Whenever I take a "back" action, the phone keyboard pops up. This is true if I swipe on my phone (system default action), or press back in the top left of the screen.

I've tried toggling the swipe to go back in the settings but it doesn't seem to impact this one.

Any ideas gratefully received, it's quite annoying

Thanks Duo, I don't know how I'm supposed to feel about a coquettish green owl-unicorn (feddit.uk)
 

Is this NSFW? It feels like this might be NSFW.

Please take generic action (infosec.pub)
 

From a live Renault app, I'm always amazed the car companies' apps are so bad, it's not like they're short of a bob or two to spend on getting it right.

We were made for these times (www.awakin.org)
 

I know this community is not strongly in use but... I find the linked letter to be helpful to me when times out in the world get difficult. It's odd, because the message is quite religious and I'm staunchly agnostic.

Yet, I urge you, ask you, gentle you, to please not spend your spirit dry by bewailing these difficult times. Especially do not lose hope.

It always works for me, hopefully it might work for someone else out there.

Okay so I totally failed to put the dough in the fridge overnight, these might not quite be as intended but they're okay!

How low on avocado do you need to be to not be allowed to say that it's guac? 3.5% will certainly do it.

Does anyone else find that 4G+ on O2 is awful? (feddit.uk)
 

I'm not 5G enabled yet so theoretically 4G+ should be my fastest connection speed. However, on O2 I find that it's effectively the same as having no connection at all, and often end up shifting down to 3G just to get some connection.

This can't be right, I feel like I've forgotten a setting or something! Has anyone managed to figure it out, or maybe first does anyone else have the same issue?
