That’s ok. This image (which is genuinely real, btw) has been around for like a decade getting reposted here and there, again and again.

Aside from the duck not looking at all like a duck; in panel three it has the much bigger choad in its beak. Not the child one.

Gemma 4 seems pretty legit so far.

I use an APK called Off Grid and load ai onto that (right now I’m using genna 4). It’s all done on my phone. Nothing on the cloud. No data sent anywhere. Completely local. No entities get shit from it. The only way I’ll use ai.

8 is probably pretty close to where I’d break down and dig out the mandolin. Maybe. I’ll use the shedder attachment for cheese or hash browns.

Getting the big Mandela out to cut up 50 of something and leaving it out all day is a big difference from cutting up like 3 potatoes at home.

Those seem fast if you don’t know how to use a knife very well. Plus then you got to clean the thing. Plus you’d be using it a long time if you were trying to make something like fries. Plus they don’t work with things like tomatoes. Then let’s see how a mandolin does with cilantro or green onions.

A mandolin is generally a tool for a novice.

This knife is expensive, but actually pretty badass. It’s an ultrasonic frequency knife and the only non commercial use chefs knife I know of that does it and works. It cuts with no effort, but really the biggest perk is that absolute fuck all will even try and stick to the side of the blade. Still to richy rich for the benefits, but it is cool tech.

It does work and it is super cool from any videos or info I watched on it. Because metal is flexible, the size, length, thickness, and weight of the blade all gave to be taken into account in order to get a vibrating frequency that works. If you ever watch videos of this or ones like it (this is the only good working home use kitchen knife I know if) it’s pretty bad ass, if for nothing else than just for how anti stick it is. I’m still not willing to pay like $400 for it. I’m a big knife sharpening and cooking guy, but I don’t think I’ve paid over about $50 for any of my kitchen knives or over $230 for a pocket knife. Now if I ever wound up seeing one of the Seattle ultrasonics somewhere new or used and still looking good for under $200 I’d probably break down and buy it. Blade stick is pretty annoying when you want to cut something very consistently and not spend a bunch of time to do it.

Euros sounding like that is just so cringy.

I have an old Google chromecast. Anything else I have an HDMI casting dongle setup that just screen shares from my PC or phone.

“A routine software update should improve your tech”

That’s funny. My Samsung watch just gets shittier and more laggy when it gets an update.

Not really.

I just don’t mind a days worth of unconvince fir something that I know for a fact will end up helping some people. Waiting a single day to install whatever I want is a non issue and is better than the OS getting further locked down from apk permissions. It’s already bad enough that there’s so many root restrictions you can’t really get around anymore.

“oh my God. Oh dear. No. Not 24 hours before I can install f-droid. I’m crippled. Wasting away to nothingness. My edgelord life is ruined. I’m never going to leave the basement again. This one day has ruined anything worth living for. Bleeeeaaagh”

I got news for you, buddy. 90% of people already don’t know shit about their phones. Half the population couldn’t even tell you how much ram is in their phones or what os version it’s on. People are lazy and ignorant. Just look at what they allowed the government to become. You overestimate the common man.

…Do you not know what they’re implementing?

All it is, is a one time 24 hour hold when you want to install a non play store apk. You click “allow apks from unknown sources” and then a day later your phone behaves just as it does right now. The end.

Hahahahahhahahahahahhahhahahahahahahahahahhahaahahahahhahahhahahahahahahahahahshshshha!

You mean the side loaded app anyone could make to allow remote device use of a phone if you install it?

I set mine to go to 85% and then pass through charge. A heavy use day and I’ll go from 85 in the morning to like 25% at night.

Red magic claims 80w wireless charging, but I haven’t seen anything that will do over 40w, and that sounded like a spaceship to keep it cool. Lol.
