Translucent electronics FTW

I think it’s to make desktop computing more approachable for people because smartphones are so ubiquitous nowadays and used by literally all age groups, so it makes a little bit of sense I guess.

The article itself doesn’t give any more details on what he supposedly said after his arrest and doesn’t even mention the headline at all… seems like weird clickbait to me tbh

No, but I’ve been on rotten.com (don’t bother clicking the link; the site is long gone) back in the day… similar experience

Princess Mononoke.

I was maybe 10 years old when I first watched it on a pirated DVD copy.

I don’t know why but I find it hilarious that they didn’t bother to remove those hyperlinks before printing.

Hell, I thought Word removes them automatically…

Coldplay switched to making lifeless, generic pop music…

The text is going to be covered by your hands 99% of the time anyway and besides, *****s have a distinct enough design that the text is gonna be the least of your worries.

Try using IPA on a spot you normally can’t see in case it damages the material, it might help rub off the text. If that doesn’t work just get a different case. Decent ones aren’t that expensive (versus the device’s price).

Edit: Why does it say “Taiwan”?

Paul McCartney died in a car crash in 1966 and was replaced by a Canadian man the British government had kidnapped for that purpose. After extensive facial surgery he took on McCartney’s role and no one noticed it.

Apart from John Lennon who hid cryptic clues to Faul’s real identity and the real Paul’s fate in the lyrics of famous Beatles songs.

It’s true.

Of course they didn’t.

Australia doesn’t even exist, it was made up by the government to cover up the earth being flat… DUH

Ah, I think I get it now; the universe was just a big bathroom all along.

Peter Gabriel era Genesis was pretty goofy, as well as some of his solo stuff.

King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard is pretty much the goofiest band known to man right now; especially if you listen to their earlier stuff like Cellophane or Vegemite.

90% of all radio songs lately have been horrendous covers of old songs, with some of them literally being just that old song, but with a cookie cutter beat under them. The other 10% are just said cookie cutter beats with some generic singer doing an annoying voice over them.

Popular music is becoming more creatively bankrupt than it ever has been.

Oh right. Weezer sucks.

Didn’t know the classic beetle was even available in Australia, really cool.

Can someone ID this comic strip? (lemmy.world)

Some time ago, I pulled this sticker off our old fridge before we got rid of it and put it onto my PC’s side panel (don’t ask me why, I guess I thought it looked cool). I don’t exactly know where it came from or who put it there, although I suspect it was put there by a Australian relative that was visiting us a long time...

I bet someone will find a way to do that with CRISPR CAS-9…

The numerous cases of 4chan users providing “tech support” to children who don’t know any better.

Especially making a child put their parent’s laptop in the oven while throwing its battery in a bowl of salt water (which can short circuit the battery and cause it to catch fire btw).

So those people just throw away their IDs and expect to dodge all jurisdictions?

And when it inevitably fails they just ask for help on Facebook because where else.

Even as far back as the first release of iPhone OS, I believe

@FireWire400@lemmy.world avatar

You’re right, I can’t quite believe they’ve only added it with iOS 7, though.

As a kid, I kinda had anger issues and would get frustrated easily. I broke the screen of my GBA SP by throwing it against a wall after not being able to solve a room in Mario vs. Donkey Kong. Similarly, I threw my iPod Touch on the floor after losing in a game called Bad Apples which broke the glass but the iPod itself still worked afterwards.

I really wish I still had that SP, as replacing the screen isn’t that hard. It even was a limited edition one as well…

Tidal is a great alternative in my opinion; they pay artists a much higher percentage per stream, you get more for the same money and their CEO isn’t a complete dickwad, I think.

It’s not so great for podcasts, though.
