Seeming that I'm getting increasingly pissed off by Spotify giving 5 or more ads without 30 minute adless times and for every 5th song rather than every 8th or 10th, I'm gonna have even more stress from the doubling of all google ads.

At least ublock origin lite does its job pretty well on YouTube, so I won't need to worry until google eventually kills that too.

I once charged my portable blender using a power bank daisy chained to one of my laptops which was also powering a desk fan, the future is strange man.

I mean... I'm 18 and I'd watch it too, I'd rather watch the birds than Instagram reels.

I am a living breathing example of a kid who got a phone at 17, I had a bit of a honeymoon period with it, had lots of fun and distraction, but eventually got used to it and actually use it for organising my schoolwork to do list, check the weather and my daily schedule.

I do tend to use social media on it, but only on the bus, since that's usually when I don't have anything else to do. I self limit my screen time pretty well, usually only 30 mins to an hour total per day, and I've always had all my devices without parental control systems, since my parents never knew how to set them up.

Also, you saying it's never about algorithms designed to siphon your attention is inherently incorrect of a statement. They literally have hundreds of data metrics to effectively lock you into staring at the screen mindlessly, although parenting also has a part to play, since you also should teach your child on how to control their attention and harness it to actually do something fulfilling, though many parents don't know how to.

I'm not even Russian and I'm offended. Most of these people who died likely didn't even want to fight, but we're drafted anyway. Blame the oligarchy, not the people who were forced to participate.

I'm not even old and this has happened so many times, I think about something random I think was only a thing after 2021 but turns out I had been using it since 2018.

Interesting, my Reno z somehow had assistant fully removed and replaced by Gemini, so that's probably why I can't do the basics.

 

I've been trying to find it for a week now but I don't seem to have any luck so far. I had seen a video about it a couple years back from a brittish YouTuber who mainly reviews DEs, although his name slipped my mind.

It is a very minimalist UI with not much customisation apart from dock size, transparency and positioning, it is niche and not an extension or customisation of another DE, and I believe it may still be in beta, although I'm unsure.

Also I apologise for the image quality, it was the only one I could find. If anyone can identify it I would really appreciate it, although I understand if you are unable, thanks.

EDIT: Also I checked if it was Orion OS or other OS names in the text but none of them matched.
