I still remember the first time I heard the word “email.” Two friends that worked for the city government were discussing an email they recieved from a supervisor. I remember asking, “what the hell is, what do you call it, E-M-A-I-L?”

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Why do iphone users still see their phones as a status symbol
1·3 months agoThe only reason I have an iPhone is because our car only has Apple CarPlay installed (or whatever it’s called). I can never go back to mounting my phone on the dash and using the tiny phone screen for maps and music.

999·3 months agoI used to watch LTT all the time. I stopped watching some years back after he installed a six figure Wi-Fi system on his “estate.” I had enjoyed watching a relatable everyman review computer hardware, and more often than not break things. I didn’t sign up to watch a millionaire dick around with exotic tech in his McMansion.

World News@lemmy.world•Disposable E-Cigarettes More Toxic Than Traditional Cigarettes: High Levels of Lead, Other Hazardous Metals Found in E-Cigarettes Popular with TeensEnglish
1·5 months agoNot positive, but I think it was stated or implied that the toxins were in the liquid because they were leeched from the coil.

politics @lemmy.world•Major Corporations — Including Oracle, McDonald’s, and Morgan Stanley — Are Dumping Law Firms That Caved to Trump
43·6 months agoMakes perfect business sense. I wouldn’t want a compromised law firm to be responsible for protecting my company. I’d worry they’d narc on me for some real or imagined DEI initiative at the first opportunity.
Just don’t eat the chicken on the way home. You’re asking for trouble.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•How do people develop feelings for someone?
81·8 months agoAfter reading your responses, I think you’re basically asking how to casually date friends, right? For casual dating/sex, stay away from friends. It can ruin the friendship or even the entire circle of friends. There’s always the “friends with benefits” thing, but even that often ends badly. For casual dating, stick with strangers. Aren’t there a ton of apps for that sort of thing?
If you like 70s acoustic folk/rock, the first album from Lazarus has some great stuff. Their harmonies are amazing. “Warmth of Your Eyes” is my favorite.
Love frybread. Got turned onto it by of all things Reservation Dogs, one of the funniest and most insightful series I’ve seen.

DeGoogle Yourself@lemmy.ml•google is not and never was your friend, it is a dictator tool: Degoogle
2·10 months agoHow do people feel about e/OS? I just started playing around with it on an old phone and it seems to work with most apps, including banking and Google apps (their store has an optional Google login).





Same situation for me. I’m hoping a forward thinking cell provider can develop something to combat this. I guess dummy phone numbers wouldn’t work, at least not in large cities since they already run out of phone numbers and have to invent new area codes. Maybe provide customers with unlimited extensions?
