TheWaterGod@lemmy.cato Technology@lemmy.world•Google’s ‘Secret’ Update Scans All Your PhotosEnglish4·5 months agoI’m curious about this. I’ve got a Pixel 6 and noticed that the battery started going to shit about a month or so ago? I couldn’t find an install date for SafetyCore, but it was listed in my apps. I’ve uninstalled it now. It’ll be interesting to see if that was causing it.
TheWaterGod@lemmy.cato Canada@lemmy.ca•How do you feel about the outcome of the US election?English32·8 months agoNumb. Sad. Mostly numb.
I was cheering for Kamala. I wanted the US to succeed. She had the big rallies, the celebrity endorsements, the polls were saying it was neck-and-neck. It looked like sanity was going to prevail. Then Trump just basically sweeps it and it’s like…oh. It’s easy to call the Americans “stupid” or whatever insults I’ve seen flying around the internet, but there was a vote. He won the vote. Over 72 million people think that Trump and the Republican ideology lines up best with their ideology. Who am I to argue with that? I don’t agree with it, but I guess that’s democracy in action. Regardless of what lies were told or what disinformation was spread, people overwhelmingly went out, voted for ol’ Donny, and this is the result. That’s how she goes I guess…? I don’t fucking know anymore dude.
My heart absolutely breaks for the people of Ukraine. I’m sure they’ll lose their US support come January. They don’t deserve that.
TheWaterGod@lemmy.cato Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Is there a sub somewhere between shitty food porn and food porn?English10·1 year agoYou’re more than welcome to post on shitty food porn. There’s not a lot of activity and the votes will let you know if it’s the right place (I don’t remove posts unless they’re breaking rules). It kind of has two interpretations - pictures of shitty food (self explanatory) or food porn that’s shitty (ie bad lighting, bad presentation, etc).
Or let me know if you start an “average food porn” community and I’m more than happy to link it in the sidebar of SFP.

TheWaterGod@lemmy.cato Technology@lemmy.world•‘It’s quite soul-destroying’: how we fell out of love with dating appsEnglish251·2 years agoI gave up on online dating last year and I won’t be back. If that means I’ll end up dying alone, I’m honestly more comfortable with that idea than suffering though anymore of the bullshit that’s Tinder/Bumble/Hinge/etc. It’s become such a miserable experience for both sides (men and women).
As someone who had used online dating on and off for 10+ years, I can tell you one of the big problems - money and greed. I know it’s always easy to just “blame capitalism”, but I’ve seen first-hand the paradigm shift from an actual useful service (i.e. a way to meet people that you would otherwise not meet) to the blatant greed it’s become. The dating apps are so obviously profiteering off people’s loneliness it’s fucking disgusting. Back before Match bought everyone up, these services used to actually be okay for what they were.
It’s probably not the answer you’re looking for, but depending where you live, periwinkle is considered an invasive species and it’s generally recommended to plant something else.
TheWaterGod@lemmy.cato Movies and TV Shows@lemmy.film•David Tennant praises Ncuti Gatwa's Doctor Who performance "What a force of nature"English161·2 years agoWait, hold the fuck up. David Tennant is returning as another Doctor!? I haven’t watched much since the Matt Smith era, but how the hell does that work with the DW lore?
TheWaterGod@lemmy.caMto Shitty Food Porn@lemmy.ca•Polish SFP: Store bought pierogi, fried, paired with store bought pickles.1·2 years agoShitty? Bruh, that looks fucking delicious. I’d demolish that whole pan.
It’s a great pollinator friendly plant and easy to grow (it just needs a lot of sunlight). I’ve been adding it as a filler in-between some of my shrubs and I’m getting bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds! Fantastic little plant.
TheWaterGod@lemmy.cato Movies and TV Shows@lemmy.film•Have you noticed how movies are getting longer?English1·2 years agoWhere did all the 90 minute movies go? I’m up for a longer movie if it can hold my attention (I have the same problem of dozing off) but 90 minutes was the sweet spot. Especially because you could make a late night (10pm or after) snap decision to watch a movie and still be in bed before midnight.
I’m sure there’s an argument to be made about not buying things you can’t afford, but looking at the graph in that article, people are going to get fucked on mortgage renewals. Anyone that locked in for 3/4/5 years are going to be renewing between now and the next couple of years and going from BOC rate of 0.25% to 5% or more is going to hurt.
Someone I know is looking at renewing their mortgage in the next couple of months and they’re already looking at a jump from 3% to >6%.
TheWaterGod@lemmy.cato Movies and TV Shows@lemmy.film•First image of Ryan Reynolds & Hugh Jackman in DEADPOOL 3English1·2 years agoI’m really digging the realistic take on the yellow suit. I think it works well.
Also, I hope there’s going to be a scene where he rips the sleeves off. Long sleeved Logan feels wrong 😂
It doesn’t show in the app drawer, but I found it via the all apps in Settings.
Go to the Settings App > Apps > “See all XX apps”. It’s called Android System SafetyCore, so it should be close to the top of the list. Tap on it and select Uninstall.
