That was my first smartphone, and I absolutely loved it! Shame nothing like it ever came out again.

I recently bought a Brother Innov-IS and found it really easy to get started with. Didn't think I would enjoy sewing this much.

Doing the Lord's work. The longer I work in academia, the more radical I become about keeping it simple.

Republicans dismayed by Trump’s ‘bad’ and ‘unprepared’ debate performance in c/news@lemmy.world

Republicans: "What a bad and unprepared debate that was! He didn't even get to the part about how life begins at conception and guns are more important than children!"

Tabasco on pizza: Yay or Nay? (sh.itjust.works)
 

My wife puts Tabasco sauce on her pizza, while I am convinced that an Italian person dies every time she does that. Help us sort this out, please.

Whoever wrote this headline has never encountered a passenger train before in their lives in c/mildlyinfuriating@lemmy.world

Based on this dumpster fire of a headline, I think the take-away can only be that Siemens and other train manufacturers have to start calling their trains "OMEGA RAIL" and "CHUNGUS 3000" or shit like that so it's worth a news article.

"The main goal of this thesis was to not be derivative garbage like the works of Big Name et al."

English isn't my first language. What does "tossing one's hair" mean?

No, it would just be the 🤣 emoji in different colors.

I wouldn't even call this "aesthetics". Rather "conceptual homogeneity" or something like that. It's what happens when you strive for a uniform look over a useful or visually pleasing one.

Are there any third-party clients for Android that allow posting to both X and Mastodon? (sh.itjust.works)

I realize I may be out of luck here, because Twitter/X seems to have locked out third-party apps real good. Still, my line of work still has many folks on Twitter/X, which makes it difficult for me to fully switch over to Mastodon, and I would love a client that could ease the pains that this social media limbo currently imposes on me.

Robot vaccums: Manufacturers and models that protect users' privacy? (sh.itjust.works)
 

Cross-posted from: https://sh.itjust.works/post/4295133

My partner and I are getting a cat and consider getting a robot vacuum cleaner for our apartment to help keep it clean. Up until now, I've been against getting one due to privacy concerns and negative reports about certain manufacturers (e.g., iRobot/Roomba). Now I'm reevaluating, because my partner is sensitive to dust, and regular vacuuming will be a must.

Does anyone have any experience or recommendations about manufacturers or models with a light privacy footprint or good reputation on that front?

I am aware that most robots that actually work will also gather data, and newer models even incorporate photo/video to improve pattern recognition performance. Still, I would be more comfortable with one that does that within reason (e.g., collects as little data as possible, transfers as little as possible to remote servers, encrypts data for transfer and storage).
