What is a product that didn't live up to its advertised claims?
  • really? we've had ours for 21 years or so, and it still works well. admittedly we use the dyson almost exclusively now

  • How to make a month go by as fast as possible other than sleeping
  • I take melatonin so I can sleep instead of lying awake with my thoughts

    throw on some music to keep my mind occupied until I start falling asleep

  • Huummm!
  • Triangle strong. Hidden civilization?

  • The last time you were scared, why?
  • I was gonna watch the whole thing but like 30 minutes in I realized it was justvoje lying bastard and a guy who didnt know what he was saying

  • lemmy test how ur client handles long posts
  • o ty skurwysynu

  • Meta is tagging real photos as 'Made with AI,' say photographers
  • pretty sure it will tag it as ai even if you just use something like generative fill to remove a blemish

    its been done for years without ai, ai just makes it quicker, better, and easier

    and sit there until the shot is perfect? sure you can do that with the pyramids, cand do that in the streets. or maybe you're shooting a car and you dont notice a minor imperfection in the paint. what, you want them to just trash the whole set of pics?

  • Best Google Maps replacement on desktop?

    I was planning a trip recently, so what I did was save all the places I wanted to go to into a list, and Maps would put a little pin there, and then I could use that to see what was close to one another (I'll add a screenshot later)

    I dont think osm has a feature like that

    while were here, what do you all use in mobile?

    Privacy friendly art home alert system?
  • dont wanna do any config. this is something I'm willing to ignore privacy for, just would be nice if I didn't have to

  • Privacy friendly art home alert system?

    Our garage flooded last night (not the first time) and so I want to install some water sensors in the garage and basement. There's dumb ones that look similar to a smoke detector, but all they do is make noise, which I'm willing to bet I won't hear since I can barely hear the smoke detector in the kitchen when I'm upstairs. thats why I want a smart system so it rings an alarm on my phone as well, though if there was something with like a repeater I could install upstairs that would work too. thanks all

  • its not that deep I just like my music loud and to feel the bass

  • Any websites to help me find the genre of a song?
  • yes this is it. thank you!

  • Any websites to help me find the genre of a song?
  • this just gives similar artists tho no? cool, but not really what I'm lookin for

  • Any websites to help me find the genre of a song?

    If I just look up "what genre is _____" it'll be very broad like "edm" or "pop" but I'd like to know if this is house or techno or d&b etc so I can start narrowing down my tastes

    thanks guys

    edit: Rate Your Music seems to be what I was looking for

    Looking for a knife that flips open like a Milwaukee Fastback for under $100
  • oh haha so far that's my favorite part. as much as I love milwaukee I want something fancier

  • Looking for a knife that flips open like a Milwaukee Fastback for under $100
  • oh yeah that could definetly be an option. thanks

  • Looking for a knife that flips open like a Milwaukee Fastback for under $100

    With the Milwaukee, you hold a button and flick your wrist to open/ close it. makes it easy to use with one hand. any knives with a regular blade that do this? thanks

    2x2 lumber at Home Depot is now 1.28x1.28. Actual size is supposed to be 1.5
  • its just easier to call it a two by four "yeah I gotta go out and get some 1 and a half by three and a halfs"

  • Can someone explain the "don't put all your eggs in one basket" argument to me?
  • yeah I didn't know that simple login and proton are essentially the same thing

  • SOLVED: If I pay for Proton Unlimited, do I get unlimited aliases through SimpleLogin's API or only through Proton Pass

    I'm gonna be paying for Proton Unlimited soon, which gives me unlimited email aliases through Proton Pass. Currently, however, I use Bitwarden and a SimpleLogin API key to generate aliases. Does paying for Proton give me unlimited aliases through SimpleLogin since SL is owned by Proton?

    So if I learned to fucking read it says that Proton Unlimited includes a SL Premium subscription with unlimited aliases

  • i see, thank you

  • Can someone explain the "don't put all your eggs in one basket" argument to me?

    I'm (probably) switching to Proton Pass from Bitwarden because its easier to create email aliases (all in one instead of making an alias with SimpleLogin, then copying that to Bitwarden and making a password there) but I've heard people saying not to use Proton Pass to not "put all your eggs in one basket". Can someone explain what this means?

    Thought if there is a way to generate those aliases within Bitwarden (using Proton's alias not SimpleLogin's as I'm going to be paying for Proton Unlimited anyways, I don't wanna pay for SimpleLogin too) I'd appreciate it, as I prefer Bitwarden.

    Thank you all :)

    EDIT: I understand now. TL:DR: If one service dies you still have the other. Either way, turns out I can just grab my API Key from SimpleLogin and use it with Bitwarden, as thats what Proton uses anyways. Also the Proton Pass extension just shit itsself and I'm not a fan of Proton's UI so I will be sticking with Bitwarden.

    How realistic is Cocaine Bear?

    Realistically, that bear should have died pretty quick from the amount of coke it ingested right? Didn't the real one die in a few minutes?

    Fractional scaling help?

    Im on a Dell G5 15 laptop with a 1660ti. I set my built in monitor to 125%, and that looks fine, but for some reason my second monitor seems to be zoomed in a bunch, even though that is still at 100% I kinda need my laptop screen zoomed in since its so small, any advice? Pop!_OS LTS, dont remember version, but says "most recent"

    Occasional diagonal screen tearing?

    Running latest Pop!_OS on a Dell G5 5590 (i7 9th gen, 16Gb RAM, 1660ti mobile). Occasionally, I'll get a tear in the screen going from bot. left to up. right corner. I'm on latest driver as far as I can tell (Pop!_Shop shows both 470.199.02 and 545.29.06 as installed) any ideas? Tearing only happens on second monitor, not built in. It's some generic office monitor plugged in with HDMI (though I can't attest to the cables quality). I could use DP if that would help, but I dont want to spend money rn.
