I’m holding out for the pixel 9a. Supposedly it has a larger battery and no camera bump

Lemm.ee had some scheduled downtime a few hours ago when it was upgrading to the latest Lemmy software version. You might have ran into that when you attempted to sign up

I’ve unsubscribed from all the politics communities. The app the I use (Sync) has content filters so you can filter out post titles that contain the names of certain individuals that I don’t want to hear about

I guess you could flip it around and make the bottom the top 🙃

I have a gigabit internet plan with Comcast , cost me $80 a month. And yes there is a 1.2tb data cap each month. Every 50gb that you go over, you are automatically charged an additional $10. Oh I’ll just choose another ISP…nope Comcast is the only option in my town. Not unless I want 5G cell Internet or satellite which is not super reliable or fast.

Yes SearXNG is awesome. You can even self host your own instance for added security/privacy. I have my own instance running on a free tier Oracle cloud 1core/1GB ram and it works great.

I got an 5800x3d and 64gb of ddr4. I see no need to jump up to a new CPU and invest in ddr5 memory yet. The performance benefit is only a few percent just isn’t worth the upgrade in my opinion

I have some tp link deco mesh units I got refurbished from the official tp link eBay store. They work great and have good coverage. But it’s not open source and you need to use their phone app the manage them - but their app isn’t too bad. It does everything I need it to do

Download another launcher, set it as default home, and forget about google’s excessive ads. Depending on your model, you may need to run an ADB command. You may need to get a remote remapper app to remap the home button to open the launcher

I am using this one for my android tv https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.spocky.projengmenu

600 down / 20 up for $95 in western PA. My area only has one option, Comcast. So they can basically make the price whatever that want. The other side of town also has FiOS and of course the same Comcast plan is $60 there. I hate it so much

I hope they don’t roll this out to Tmobile Prepaid. I don’t really trust Tmobile with my bank account information.

Paying over $100 each month on cell plans is crazy. If all you use is talk, text, and some data, Connect by Tmobile Prepaid has $15 plan with 3.5GB per month

Yes, I just made the switch to a closer instance yesterday. So much faster. I was on lemmy.world for the past few weeks but then I realized the server is hosted in Europe and I was getting 144ms ping from US east coast. This new instance I’m on, I’m getting 22ms ping.

You can test latency yourself from cmd by typing “ping lemmy.world” for example
