ALostInquirer, to asklemmy in Best android app for news aggregation?

Any chance you have any experience with FreshRSS’s web scraping ability for sites without RSS feeds? I’ve been dabbling with RSSBridge lately, but it seems like having this altogether might be a decent idea if I’m going to be mucking around with server-software stuff.

ALostInquirer, to asklemmy in Folks in North America, where do you like to get PC parts online these days?

As a bonus it will check to see if there are some glaring incompatibilities at the same time.

I’d heard of the site but for some reason I’d forgotten this part. I’ll definitely use it for that at a minimum (and maybe for sourcing parts as well depending!), as I have a habit of missing some tiny detail that happens to relate to compatibility.

ALostInquirer, to asklemmy in What do normal people look at on their phones?

Similar to the other person that replied to ya, I’m in an older vehicle so I don’t have anything like that in mine, instead relying on either aux cable or bluetooth receiver to connect the phone to the audio system. It got to the point that I got a bluetooth media remote to get around the unreliability of voice commands.

ALostInquirer, to asklemmy in What do normal people look at on their phones?

Older vehicle, so it’s basically just the phone and either an aux cable or bluetooth receiver, so that probably explains some of it 😅

ALostInquirer, to asklemmy in What do normal people look at on their phones?

I used to try to use voice control for changing media when driving, but found it hilariously unreliable since it had to try to parse the voice command through the music. Is there a trick to that besides having a better mic I’m missing?

ALostInquirer, to asklemmy in Beyond Wikipedia, what are some of your favorite online learning resources?

For those hesitant to click through this, it’s an interesting looking site trying to teach about cybersecurity stuff! Wouldn’t have guessed that based on the name!

ALostInquirer, to science_memes in anti meme

I’m aware of the trend, which is why I was asking about Great Britain in particular and whether they had also done so. Courtesy of this reply I was made aware that there are at least some there, albeit those highlighted were neither as old nor so large.

Still fun to know about though!

ALostInquirer, to piracy in Smart Tube Next, ReVanced, or something similar on Roku?

Which kind of Roku device are you using? Stick, box, or tv? Reason I ask is that there may be some workarounds for some devices over others, e.g. casting from phone or screen-sharing from PC.

…Given the presence of Stonehenge, what kept the ancient peoples of Great Britain from making their own pyramids anyway? I’m guessing it’s to do with different sociocultural arrangements, but was there any absence of resources that may have also contributed?

ALostInquirer, to asklemmy in What do you follow to keep track of new media releases?

To clarify a little, I was asking more about things where…Importance isn’t so much a factor. It’s more to do with wanting to know whatever new oddity might be around to check out. Passivity in this situation is allowing others to have more input on what reaches you, which isn’t always reliable if you want to explore different stuff.

I need to figure out a better way to frame this question. 🤔

ALostInquirer, to asklemmy in Which sources do you follow to learn of new indie/small movies?

How so?

ALostInquirer, to memes in I'm starting to feel like there's not much choice

what if you tried squatting some properties instead?

ALostInquirer, to asklemmy in If many extraterrestrial civilizations were nearby but trying to keep quiet, how would you suggest drawing them out?

I like to imagine a sort of awkward strangers reasoning for it, personally, where it’s not a matter of anything untoward involved, so much as nobody able to decide how to break the ice. Supposing that, I wonder what the cosmic icebreaker might be?

ALostInquirer, to asklemmy in If many extraterrestrial civilizations were nearby but trying to keep quiet, how would you suggest drawing them out?

In this scenario I think it’d be likely that they’re being quiet for some reason that’s literally incomprehensible to human-level minds, since they’re likely millions or billions of years more advanced than we are.

Why’s that? It’s not an imposition on my part, especially given that unlike the usual scenarios where the reason one might imagine them to be more advanced is that they aren’t nearby and are capable of reaching us from afar somehow.

Scenario I’ve posed is pretty basic, say some extraterrestrial civilizations were nearby (say, we’re both able to travel & communicate in a more timely fashion than waiting decades for each trip/exchange), but they’re not talking to us because ??? and so…How might ya get’em to meet & talk?

ALostInquirer, to lemmyshitpost in Pls
