So the remote screen lock only takes a phone number? No sign in necessary??? Edit: It needs a "security challange", so better than nothing. The funnier part is you need a phone to call their number after visiting the website. At least with "Find my" I can just login anywhere and lock it.

~~Could I enter my friend's phone number? Could someone make a script to to lock phones at random times???~~

~~That would be infuriating.~~

They didn't say that....they just said not to hook whatever smart TV they get to the internet.

Man didn't capatlize her name....at the start of a sentence. He had to back out of the autocorrect to do that (or use a desktop...but still)!

You can pin buttons too. I have left/right cursor arrows and clipboard buttons pined. Super handy for me.

Yes, but capabilities are reduced.

Speaking of tracking, any one have any good suggestions?

Nah, you're thinking of the 2005 model year. This 1969 model is perfect.

Price tracking for amazon. Find out if deal are deals, or "we doubled the price last week and made it 25% off".

Yes but at least they are getting unique ideas and not just whatever ad bullshit the general internet feeds them.

I also love the A+ prose.

Me too...but just to be safe I spent too much of my free time typing up a response.

No the government should not stay out of it.

How does this make any sense "if you, or anyone you know, has ever bought our taxi, you can not sue when our driver hits you"?

"Buyer beware" is not an argument when this shit is buried in pages of dence leagle documents or in some case never presented to the end user (in the case of a things like appliance delivery, where the buyer never sees the documents included). Do you expect me to hire a lawyer to buy a washer machine, or to sign up for a free Disney+ trail? Speaking of Disney, how about that "allergy friendly" restuant that killed someone with allergies. Theae forced arbitration clauses are letting ~~companies~~ people get away with wrongful deaths.

implied warranty of merchantability If the restaurant says their food does not contain an ingredient and they say the food prep is craefully done to ensure no cords contamination and someone dies because the ingredient was in the food - there's a problem and justice needs to be upheld.

Being a rebublicans or wanting "small goverment" has nothing to do with this. Yes too much gov intervention is bad, but with out it we'd still be eating rats in our hamburgers.

Don't bring abritarty sides into a problem when people are dying and no one is getting held accountable.

The solution is Settings -> Account preferences -> Show read posts?

Thanks [email protected]


I've posted a few time, but the post list always remains empty for some reason.

I can see other people posts on their profiles.

 

Basically looking a calandar that stays on the deaktop, and can show events (Otherwise I'd just use a wallpaper). I don't need much interaction with it, if any, essentially just open the actaul calandar program. Sync with iCal is a big plus.

While FOSS is ideal, I'm open to anything free (that can be firewalled or is actually private (unlikely, I know))

I found one that used windows 7 widgets, but it was too small and didn't seem to work right anyways.

Android Tablets (lemmy.world)

Does anyone have good experience with android tablets, and possibly replacing the OS? I see some interesting options from Google, lenovo, one plus, etc... I imagine the pixel one will be the easiest to load a new OS to, but I also wonder about the tablet support of things like lineage or graphine.

The hardware doesn't have to be groundbreaking, just good enough to be my "travel laptop" for movies, comics and general interneting. I don't want a laptop, as I often like to sit in chair/bed to read comics or watch movies and a keyboard would make that awkward.

One of my main concerns is the update support - my iPad has been getting updates since 2017, a lot of the android manufactures are promising a pathetic 3 to 5 years. I don't want to be "software bricked" in 5 years (I.e apps eventually requiring an Android version I cannot update to)
