A lot of what is sold to consumers is straight up shite.

Yes! Pretend that you feel like this but do your own thing man. Show up to work excited but only do what you’re paid for or what they deserve.

On a mobile device, the risk is rather low. Most hackers go for commonly used operating systems and spray their attacks at millions of machines. If you’re practicing good security hygiene, you should be fine, even though I’m a strong advocate for security updates. Updating is obviously better than not updating. So if budget isn’t an issue I’d say upgrade the device. 4a doesn’t get updates anymore.

It’s useful when it works. You have alternatives in Android, but come on we’re in 2024, “smart” devices should be able to talk to each other regardless of the operating system.

Just another name for corporate greed. All these years the soil was good enough, but now even the soil is unproductive for these greedy bastards.

Having lived through a few coup detats, I don’t think the decline just started. People have been saying we’re doomed since early A.D.s. There are way too many ideological ways to live life. To each their own, but in the end our own intrinsic values necessitate valuation of things and power. TL;DR: this is happening everywhere, all at once.

Nukes? I’m cool with it, at least I’ll know we’ll all go together. I would rather fear a miserable life and play my best move against it, even when it’s a minor rebellion compared to what it’s fighting against.

Underwork when I can, especially if I feel underpaid and under appreciated. Humanity is doomed to destroy itself, so I don’t worry all that much about things. Hell, at this point I would enjoy watching it end. But until then, I’m gonna chill, smoke weed, make music and spend time with the good folks around me.

 

Everyone knows by now, how much the US healthcare system sucks and tries to funnel money from people’s pockets at every chance.

How do you think this will play out in the upcoming years? Is there anything the common person can do to end this ridiculous system? Do we even have the power to change anything by asking for it in numbers?

Pixel 9 models below $600 (self.googlepixel)
submitted 4 months ago by bokherif to c/googlepixel
 

If you go to websites like Swappa right now, you can find brand new Google Pixel 9 models for less than $600. Considering Google is trying to sell these phones above $800, I think the market already decided what this series of phones should cost really.

Hi there,

I’m looking for an app with a good widget that would let me track the stocks I’ve invested in. The main issue I’m having with the system app is that the widget is limited to 6 symbols and if you are using an app to track multiple stock prices on a widget, I would love to know what you use. So far tried a few apps but had no luck. Thanks in advance.

Reddit ads between comments (self.enshittification)
submitted 4 months ago by bokherif to c/enshittification
 

Was recently browsing Reddit and noticed a new type of ad which pops up in between comments now. It used to be a few ads in between posts and you would get an ad as the top comment when you click on a post, but now they’re injecting ads in between comments when you are even scrolling comments lol. When do you think this will start having an effect on regular people? Do you think the enshittification will slow down or come to a halt if these companies start losing revenue due to lost customer base?

Any unofficial YouTube clients? (self.apple_enthusiast)
submitted 6 months ago by bokherif to c/apple_enthusiast
 

Hey folks, there are a few apps in the Android world which I use to watch YouTube without ads. Some examples are ReVanced, NewPipe etc. I was wondering if there is a similar app that I can use to fulfill the same needs such as ad blocking, downloading and viewing on iOS. Figured if anyone knew it'd be on Lemmy. Thanks in advance!

Backup filters/blocks? (self.boostforlemmy)
submitted 6 months ago by bokherif to c/boostforlemmy
 

Hey everyone,

Been using Boost for a long while now and I'm wondering if the filters/blocks I've made over the past few months persist when I install the app on a new device. I really don't want to see some communities/instances on my feed and does anyone know if this syncs with my user account? Is there a way to backup these filters I've enabled? Appreciate any response.
