Internet rando.
You can also find me on Mastodon https://mastodon.social/@lazycouchpotato and Tildes https://tildes.net/user/lazycouchpotato
Mostly Lemmy. Mastodon sometimes – I have to spend more time there muting RSS bot accounts to find stuff of my interest.
Dipping my toes into Bluesky as well. So far it’s been good – very polished experience.
I also lurk quite a bit on Tildes.net.
Once a week.
Dark, Twisted and Cruel from Alan Wake II’s soundtrack.
Haven’t played the game yet. Came across the song while listening to Alan Wake’s American Nightmare’s soundtrack.
On my phone right now so using my phone’s Downloads folder. 2 years old.
It’s this meme:
Propel/Gatorade Zero powder drink mixes. No specific flavor.
Pack of 10 costs as much as 1 regular Gatorade bottle. More cost effective.
I’ve been loyal to Sync. Few quirks that need to be resolved like support for Lemmy spoilers, but other than that it’s been fantastic.
That’s pretty clever. I bought 3 for my family living in the same house…
1-2 yes
3-4 no (or at least, not yet)
Has it been a perfect migration? No.
There are a ton of quirks that need to be worked out, but I’m still betting on the Fediverse because of its openness and philosophy.
Just “lazy couch potato” provides the following from Bing:
I’m not that messy. I swear…
Things would get really quiet without them.
Eventually I can see getting rid of them, but for now they’re keeping Lemmy active.
According to Reddit last year, while only 4% of users are on old.reddit, 60% of all mod actions are carried out on it. They can’t get rid of it for now, but they are working on bringing updates to modding on new.reddit or newnew.reddit (nickname given by me).
Early 2024 is the estimated rollout for this, so I’d say mid-to-late 2024 is when old.reddit is kicked to the curb.
Physical, because “it just works”. I have had a SIM fail on me once, but I was quickly able to get a replacement. Popped out the old one and popped in the new one. No fuss.
eSIM on the other hand requires competency from both your device manufacturer and service provider, and is a mess to deal with if anything goes wrong. The phone manufacturer will blame the service provider and vice versa.
I’ve had two unpleasant experiences trying to activate an eSIM, and I don’t plan on using it again soon – at least not until every Android device manufacturer does an Apple and goes eSIM-only.
On PC:
On Android:
Been using it for 7-8 years and only seen it improve. A few gripes to deal with, but I’m happy otherwise.
Closing in on 10 years of Sync (Reddit/Lemmy). I’m too used to it to switch things around. The only time I’m using the mobile website is when I need to use spoilers.
On desktop, I switch between default, Photon and Alexandrite.
You can pay one time to remove the ads, or sign up for Sync’s Ultra subscription which provides additional features like OCR in images and text translation.
Once you do so, the ad library is not invoked at all.

I’ve installed Darktable probably 10 times in the past 5 years, and uninstalled it immediately after. Basically collecting its .exe files at this point.
There’s just something about the UI that makes it daunting and unappealing to use for me. I’m hoping more FOSS programs can get the Blender treatment with UI/UX improvements and a ton of fundind.

Decent amount, I’d say.
Nothing serious, but I track all the games I play. According to stats, I completed 30 games and spent a total of 4d 15h 32m playing games this year.
