All these people in the comments complaining that the bar isn't level when the picture is just taken from a slight side angle? ๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™‚๏ธ literal perspective problem ๐Ÿ˜‚

Also people being like "lol no such thing as a TV-bar-hanger-contractor"..... Audio/video contractors of course do this??? Like, who said its the only thing their job entails?? ๐Ÿ˜‚

Ah man, looking at those bullet points I realize I've got the first two down pat (you should see how quickly my family's faces turn to visual expressions of sighs! Next level disappointment speeds!)

But I realize now - I'm yet to achieve even a bronze in Internet Arguing!

SOMEONE FIGHT ME!

The whole article's a great read, but here's a fun excerpt=

To be perfectly blunt, AI girlfriends are not your friends. Although they are marketed as something that will enhance your mental health and well-being, they specialize in delivering dependency, loneliness, and toxicity, all while prying as much data as possible from you.โ€ --Misha Rykov, Researcher @ *Privacy Not Included

I'm taking a class on data privacy at the moment, and it made me think it would be interesting to see exactly what kind of advertising data has been generated by services like Google \ YouTube \ Etc. Is there somewhere online that's easy to punch in an advertising ID & find that sort of data, or is that something you'd have to request from advertisers themselves? (AdSense etc?) Or maybe do the service providers (mentioned before) store that data?

Forgive my ignorance - still learning about this stuff!

Not sure if this will help anyone else, but I couldn't find anything online about this and thought I'd share this with online just in case!

I just started playing Outer Wilds on the steam deck for a week or so, and was immediately in love with it. I decided to install it on my PC (popOS) to see how it looks with cranked graphics, and I could not for the life of me figure out how to sync my cloud saves! For some reason the deck kept saying the saves were syncing fine up to the cloud, but my pc kept sticking at 'checking....' when I asked it to sync...

In the end, I ended up finding a setting in the steam client that enables compatibility for every title in steam that isn't Linux native... when I flipped it on, Outer Wilds (along with like 4 other games in my library) all immediately resolved their bugged cloud sync!

So, I guess, steam will complain that it can't get your cloud saves to download, when really it doesn't have a compatdata folder for the saves to download to. Kinda jank!

Teams room technician here. Just wanna say= fuck teams. For the love of god, use any implementation of video conferencing besides teams.

One small detail that encapsulates all that's wrong with teams= the software that runs the room-scale experience frequently refers to itself as 'skype for business', even in current, official documentation from Microsoft. Hell, the (well known) default password for the system is the acronym 'sfb'.

Please. If you're spec'ing new software for video conferencing, use anything but teams.

Totally genuinely, I never, ever think about the Roman empire. Don't understand how this is a thing across social media ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ

Has anyone seen where to check the footage out?? Looks like it's all been DMCA'd from the majority of the web... I'm not a huge GTA Stan but I kinda wanna see what got leaked!

It warms my heart to see so many comments in the camp of "I use it everywhere". Absolutely same here. You are my people.

Wtf, this isn't about which app is better it's about variety! The fact sync is part of a list of options is what makes fediverse great - seems everyone in the comments agree ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ gtfo with this sync hate. I'm a big Boost fan myself but im stoked sync is finally ready for those that've been waiting for it! ๐Ÿฅณ

I personally prefer apps on the matrix network! Www.Matrix.org has a list of client apps, but I've found Element is great on windows, steam deck, and android! Call quality and chat stability can get weird sometimes, but overall it's very very secure and pretty feature rich! ๐Ÿ™‚

From the little bit I researched, it's kinda similar in the way that the fediverse works! It's decentralized, and one account works everywhere. Good stuff!
