Wow! That’s really cool! Good for the devs at TreeStyleTab!!!

Reinforced binder paper where the holes are triangles and reinforced with tape. I hadn’t had to deal with my papers getting ripped out of a binder/refillable notebook since getting them

That’s not harmless that’s cruel 😭

I saw a video once of a prank where two girls go up to a stranger asking them to take a picture of them across the street. The stranger takes the photo and when the two girls start crossing over to the other side, a car passes by and the two girls are replaced with two old men wearing the same shirts. Even the Polaroid photo shows the old men. It’s genuinely funny and completely harmless. It just makes the person getting pranked go, “Wait, what the fuck???”

I do hope the people were told that they were pranked though and that they don’t live the rest of their lives thinking they’re insane 😂

ETA: also this video where the guy puts on the collar and leash of his blind husband’s service dog when he asks him to go get his watch. (He immediately reveals himself when the blind husband gets back to pick up his service dog’s leash again and the husband thinks it’s hysterical).

Tiny cock?

It’s a pretty popular writing software, though you mainly hear about it in writing circles so that might be why you never heard of it.

That’s fair. I feel like bloat would be the wrong term to use in regards to a search engine though 😅

That’s…really bad 😭 Even Mastodon allows you to search by hashtags (I know it supports full-text search but most instances turn that off because it’s pricey)

His apology “for the pain his donation in support of prop 8 caused” was also kind of undercut by following up by calling criticism of his views as a “political litmus test”.

He’s shocked that his support of a political organization makes people think that he agrees with their movement and he gets criticized for holding those views?

Wait why would the search engine be the bloat part?

Threads had no discovery features?! Jesus Christ…

Fwiw this is about Brave Search, not the Brave Browser

Ohhhhhhhh. That…really sucks actually. That might be why I’m struggling to find anything on certain topics I’m interested.

This seems like a huge issue but at the same time I understand that instances have limited resources so I don’t really know how to solve it…

Not really a hack but I love using loose leaf paper with triangle holes that’s reinforced with tape. It’s called “College Ruled Reinforced Paper”. My papers don’t constantly rip out anymore.

Also I like refillable notebooks. They’re regular notebooks you can refill and much lighter and easier to carry.

You’re able to see tagged posts from people on other instances when browsing hashtags. Unless I’m misunderstanding what you mean

It’s pretty shitty for a company to force someone to use a phone app or go to something as vital as a bank just because they won’t let the customer access the website. And there are plenty of reasons why someone wouldn’t be able to go to the bank in person every time they needed to, or at least it’d be extremely inconvenient to (especially for small things like checking your balance or transactions). Not everyone has a phone either.

Change your email provider? Run your own email like people should?

I’ve never deleted my email before but I’m pretty sure that means losing access to your entire inbox that you’ve likely had for years and having to update your contacts, the emails for all the accounts you have under it, etc. And being blocked from the website means you won’t be able to do any of those things through the official website. Does device atteststion prevent you from accessing your email through third party clients?

Also, it’s not exactly easy or practical to host your own email. And for many people that would mean spending money on servers. I read a blog post last year of someone who gave up hosting their own email after 23 years doing so.

Isn’t that a common symbol for all medical related things?

Apple stopped giving their new products the"i" prefix because they weren’t able to trademark it because “you can’t trademark a letter.”

I doubt that they’ll allow Elon Musk to trademark the letter “x”

I was curious about Calckey/Firefish, I’m even more curious now haha.

It’s completely local unless you specifically opt into cloud options. There is Obsidian Sync but that’s completely optional, and your files are still on the computer. I know some people make their vaults Google Drive folders, which, again, is something you have to deliberately do.
