trk, to asklemmy in How do you deal with the thought of having to work for 40+ years and then when/if you retire, you're too old to do much?
@trk@aussie.zone avatar

I just plan to live forever. Come 2176 I’m going to have enough money to retire in comfort.

Almost good enough odds to do Rookery in UBRS

trk, to comicstrips in No escape
@trk@aussie.zone avatar

I just stand inside the door until someone else comes in, then escape.

This works poorly in remote areas, but I consider 4 days trapped in a public bathroom worth it to avoid touching the poop handle.

Firefox is literally already right there tho…

It was a very long cab ride

trk, to asklemmy in Which YouTuber still creates high-quality videos to this day?
@trk@aussie.zone avatar

Mighty Car Mods --> www.youtube.com/mightycarmods

Dudes have been making awesome automotive content since 2007. And Moogs sound tracks that he creates for the episodes (and especially the feature length stuff) is incredible.

Don’t think they’ve had a single moment of boring content in 16 odd years, let alone anything objectively bad. Absolute units the pair of them.

trk, (edited ) to piracy in Something like Trakt, but for music?
@trk@aussie.zone avatar

Still works perfectly. I used to use it with Subsonic, now with YT Music. Plenty of music players support scrobbling to it still.

Lidarr can import from a last.fm users playlist, or last.fm tags. Can also follow Spotify lists, and monitor Apple Music for top albums and auto grab them.

trk, to memes in Why? Are we not doing enough?
@trk@aussie.zone avatar

I see more people complaining on Lemmy about problems than I do the actual problems they’re complaining about.

Just use the thing, and put the content and comments you want on it? You don’t have to be a passive observer just staring out the window as monkeys dance for you. Be the monkey. Dance how you want. Eat a banana. Fling poo if that’s what you want. Just stop expecting everyone else to create your dream routine and then having a sook because they step-pause-turn-pause-pivot-step-paused when you wanted them to step-pause-turn-pause-pivot-step-step.

Depending on where that terminal is open, you probably haven’t really done much damage

trk, to piracy in 2 companies caught illegally printing over 15,000 books, calendars in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam
@trk@aussie.zone avatar

When we were in Vietnam many years ago, I bought probably half a dozen books to read I’m the train. They were things like Da Vinci Code, some Clive Cussler, probably a Stephen King book or two. Basically popular English titles at the time.

All clearly dodgy copies, with 16 colour covers and poor quality print and paper. All clearly from a place like this as they were being sold EVERYWHERE by street vendors. Given I was only there for a couple of weeks I wasn’t concerned about the quality as I wasn’t planning on keeping them long term.

Without exception, every book was hugely flawed. Missing chapters, half the book just repeated, pages only half printed, random Harry Potter pages in the middle of Da Vinci Code, etc.

I kept them just for the fun factor. Never did finish Da Vinci Code (as in legitimately). I did read the first half twice though!

trk, to asklemmy in Other than blue bubbles, why do you use iPhone?
@trk@aussie.zone avatar

I don’t even use any Apple products, but I still gotta agree with all this.

How they didn’t do an iMessage style client better than Apple given the fact Hangouts was right there and superior in every way for so long is just… bleh.

Google is losing it. Android is losing more nerd functionality and just copying iOS… but poorly. YouTube Music was better as Google Play Music. “Chats” was better as Hangouts. Where Google Fi at? Where Google Fibre gone? How’s Google+ going?

Even their search results are mostly spam now.
