  • If you haven’t done this and need the same ability IMMEDIATELY: reboot, or just shut down

    Every first boot requires pin same as lockdown

    Also: set a nonstandard finger in a weird way as your finger unlock if you wanna use that, then theyre likely to fail to get that to work should you not manage to lock it down beforehand

    Finally: there are apps that let you use alternate codes/finger unlocks to wipe/encrypt/reboot the device instead, allowing you to pretend to cooperate with the cops up until they realize they got played





  • What could’ve fit in a screen of text should not be a video at all

    In your opinion, maybe

    I save videos for later all the time, I just watch them never

    Ok, that’s your own bad habit, guess you don’t need to participate since you won’t watch em

    If some information is not visual-first, and not entertainment, if it may be important to people and should be spread, it also better not be a video

    Tell that to broadcast news. The information provided in videos like this is basically never something original if it’s not entertainment, so you absolutely can find the information elsewhere

    Still have yet to see any arguments as to how relevant content on a relevant link aggregator is in any way bad to people who don’t have a weird hate boner for specific media types, because there isn’t one 😉


  • Because they found it interesting and wanted to discuss it with people?

    Just because it’s low priority doesn’t mean it lacks any interest, we can exist between extremes

    Most people would roll their eyes and move on

    Quite famously 1% of the community are posters, after all. Who the fuck cares what a normal person would post? OP wanted to

    and yet it’s being upvoted because “hooray tribalism” over something as asinine as OS (really kernel) choice.

    Lol, it’s being upvoted because most of us recognize the sub and it’s pathetic mod and are laughing at being reminded of them, if the comments are anything to go by






  • I said “like it’s rape or something” - I didn’t say you’re saying it’s “tantamount to rape”

    ESL or just pretending like you don’t know those are the same thing?

    I’m just talking about the language people use like they’re being personally violated by snaps.

    Theyre literally just using the words to describe what is happening, why are you being weird about it?

    Getting hardcore incel vibes from your attitude, might wanna work on that

    I forget the type of mic but there are mics specifically designed for picking up vibrations from surfaces (I googled it, they’re called surface mics ffs, could probably use a cheap normal mic without a pop filter tho)

    If those use USB or 3.5mm, or can be made to, then plug them in and on windows check the “listen to this device” checkbox and boom, you’ll hear what’s coming through that mic. Adjust the sensitivity to your needs, done

    On other OSs you can do it too just as easily but I don’t remember what my Linux distro calls it and if you’ve installed Linux you have enough info from my comment to figure it out methinks




  • Did a quick google and the first review that came up shows that’s not true at all, it’s the exact same process on a kindle as it is a Kobo, though you and this review are both really over-selling it:

    Getting ebooks from other stores onto the device is also a hassle. You have to plug the e-reader into your computer and drag and drop files (though Calibre, the ebook management app, does make it a scootch easier). But that problem isn’t unique to Kobo. Amazon and Barnes & Noble also insist you sideload books.

    The real reason seems to be that the Kobo is cheaper, honestly, don’t see why the kindle is that much more
