Went back to listening to music in the #iOS #Music app after a few months, and now my playlists are all gone (actually the songs; the playlists are empty). This sucks! Is there something I could do to get the song lists back?

I still can’t believe a single player game like #DiabloIV can’t be played offline. Right now I can’t spend my limited time playing it because the server doesn’t let me. “Try again later” on a game I paid for…

Huh, so my #Windows #Mail app is now making me go to "New #Outlook" app... with ads. No thanks. Is #Thunderbird the way? Looking for advice.

Such a funny question... in #PuertoRico, potholes are always going to be there!

My #astrophotography highlights of 2023

All images taken from my driveway near Tucson, Arizona; except for the eclipse which was on a trip to Roswell, New Mexico.

Hey #PCBuilders, I have an RTX 2070 Super and since I'm a Linux gamer 98% of the time, I've been thinking about going team red. I found a dude who might be down to trade me a Radeon VII for my 2070S... is that a good deal or a bad deal?

Linux compatibility should be way better, and it seems like performance is comparable, but idk about raytracing performance and I've heard the R VII can be pretty loud.

Opinions? Advice?

But why… I wonder how much of this article was indeed written by the author and how much was AI.

I thought it was only me, but no… it seems it’s more widespread than I expected.

Eclipse solar parcial visto desde Puerto Rico

Les comparto una imagen del #eclipse solar parcial visto desde Isabela, PR. Dada su ubicación geográfica, desde Puerto Rico el eclipse no se vió de forma anular como en otras regiones de América, sino que en su punto máximo, la luna ocultó parcialmente la superficie del sol, como se puede ver en la foto. El punto máximo del eclipse fue aproximadamente a las 6:20 UTC.

Opinions on #Starfield?

So far, I’m enjoying the on-foot portion of the game, but the space travel/jumping between systems seems tacked on. There’s so many things done with loading screens, so I don’t feel like I’m flying anywhere. Too bad because there’s the ship building mechanic, but I’m not sure that space travel is being used to its fullest extent.

Trump finally has a mugshot & has been made to post bail — standard practice for criminal defendants that he's been spared up till now.

His defenders who complain about a "two-tiered" justice system are half right. There's one for the rich & powerful and one for everyone else.

Work in Progress! This is the beautiful Helix Nebula, sometimes referred to as the "Eye of God". This is the only planetary nebula I can reasonably capture with my widefield scope. It is very low in the night sky, rising to only 27 degrees above the horizon from my location but I was able to get almost 4 hours on it. I will add more time over the next month to bring out the finer details. Off to a great start!

Acabo de crear una cuenta de #Kbin: @caferetro. El formato de #magazines me parece un buen complemento a mi cuenta de #Mastodon.

Can someone ELI5 what’s the difference between #Kbin and #Mastodon? I’m intrigued.

Rare case of green hairy tongue is pure nightmare fuel

The man fully recovered after extra tongue brushing. But you might not.

Mastodon #Lists users, what's the best way to add/remove people from a given list? So far I've discovered going to their profile and adding them manually. Is there a faster way?

Might as well test out this Threads thingy… https://threads.net/@gaming0nlinux

So far though it’s super basic and there’s only an algorithm feed so it’s a bit gross.
