Saw them in the early 2000s at a medium sized, indoor venue that had no seating. $25 / ticket. They stopped in the middle of a song to make sure someone was ok and a guy even jumped from the (not super high) balcony, crowd surfed to the stage, and played guitar with them for a song.

You got ripped off. :/

Gotcha.

Upon looking into it further it seems they just bought the design department. That’s crazy.

I used to love HTC phones, and was a loyal customer. Glad they’re trying to make a comeback.

Didn’t google buy HTC?

I found https://kbin.run/ as well

Nah, it’s good. No pressure. These are just resources that I kinda had to stumble across, although im sure theyre in some super accessible place and im just a ding dong. Figured if they could help another person, then so be it.

It’s hard times right now, you do what you gotta do to keep on keeping on. Lemmy.world is a completely fine choice. They’re a large, mainstream place to get comfortable in. But, if you get bored one day and want to check out what else is out there, you’ve got something to get you started.

I wish you luck, some free time, and some peace of mind.

If you ever decide you want to branch out, you can try the instance / community browser at https://lemmyverse.net to check out whats out there.

I will say that although it technically doesnt matter what instance you sign up with, sometimes the descriptions aren’t very descriptive at all. Definitely give an instance a browse, to get a feel for the overall vibe, before you sign up.

You can check to see if an instance has been defederated from / by other instances, by entering said instance address at https://defed.xyz/

The summary for the post kinda misses the mark on what the majority of the article is pushing.

Yes, the first part describes employees struggling with AI, but the majority of the article makes the case for hiring more freelancers and updating “outdated work models and systems…to unlock the full expected productivity value of AI.”

It essentially says that AI isn’t the problem, since freelancers can use it perfectly. So full time employees need to be “rethinking how to best do their work and accomplish their goals in light of AI advancements.”

Oh now they pull em. Jerks.

The app won’t let you without signing in, I don’t think, but i think the website does. Try this link or you can go to deezer.com and if you go to the hamburger menu at the bottom it has an “explore channels” option.

Edit: It’s odd they don’t let people browse I’m a more friendly way. And just so you know, once you sign up, you can search, make playlists, download for offline etc, the mostly same as spotify. When u first sign up, it also give you the option to migrate all your spotify plsylists over. Out of my thousands of songs saved, it did have 2 or 3 that didn’t transfer over due to just not having it.

You could check out deezer. It’s European and they have a classical music section. Not sure how good it is. It’s like $110 for a yearly subscription and they offer hi-fi streaming. Just another option for you to check out. 🤷

Edit: haha, I feel wierd putting this link to the irs here.

Except they’ll make you sign up for id.me, biometrics and all.

That’s what happened to me. Needed a printer in the middle of covid, ASAP. Nothing I researched was there, so I had a limited time to just pick a printer. Hmmm, this HP seems ok…

3 months later, there was no way I used all the ink. WTF. Go to buy more, and thats when I realized my mistake. !@#☆$%^&*

I’ve heard good things about the tank printers

Personal experience bets gen x.

Supposedly, if you deleted it during the blackouts… any sub that was down at the time of deletion, didn’t delete comments.

Can’t tell you how often I get a reminder to keep my eyes on the road, just because I repositioned my head, or tilted it down to stretch my neck. My eyes are on the road damn it. Now my car will turn off in the middle of the highway if i get a stiff neck…great.

Also, I had no idea subaru did this. I saw a recent article that mentioned a few big named car brands, and subaru wasnt included, so, i was naively hopefull. Plus, I realize im being recorded anyways, in an infinate amount of ways, but i didnt realize the car was in on it too. Wow, that sucks. I need to pay better attention, no pun intended.

You have a point. I sometimes definitely forget to consider the flip side of the coin.

Not at all. Back to that educating the public bit.

I’m not a tech wiz, but I do know my way around basic functions of a computer. If i have no* idea how it works or what it’s capable of, how are people who know next to nothing supposed to figure it out?

Well, shit. This explains a lot. But also, what chucklehead thought that was a good idea.

I know, now that you mention it, I vaguely remember something about how they didn’t think it should be kept only by some corps or something. Which is commendable but at the same time, ugh.

I have no problem with everyone being able to use it ,but there should have been an introductory period, if nothing else. Jeeze.

Whelp, fake everything here we…are.
