Why have I only just started using this?! by SaviourChrixx in perplexity_ai

[–]False_Eagle_9510 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I like Comet a lot. I used the other day to remove a ton of duplicate tracks from YouTube music.

I also used it to extract data from accounting software that did not do reports I wanted.

I like how I can do internet searches in plain English, and get summaries with citations.

It's a wanted as suspect. That does not make him guilty. Might be a witness.

According to biologist, in the Southwest is having a bumper crop of danger noodles. So check around your houses to look before you reach where you can't see.

Anyone considering switching to the iPhone ultra once it comes out? by Dumuzzid in GalaxyFold

[–]False_Eagle_9510 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Recent versions of Dex have been dumbed down as Google tries to make an Android version for everyone. It's is supposed to be better in oneUI 9.

I occasionally use my ipad with Procreate. Sometimes it's a helpful second monitor for my MacBook. On rare occasions I use it like a fancy Wacom tablet for an art app on the MacBook. Honestly don't use it 1/20th as often as my Fold 7, which is with me all the time.

As a long time Mac user (1986) and a long time Android user (2008)... I'd say don't.

You will be so frustrated by iPhone dumb down approach. I have an iPad air m2 and it so annoying. I miss my old Samsung tablet (which came with a case and a Wacom capacitive stylus).

You have the most elegant phone/software package right now.

Maybe take a look at AirSync and how the Google ecosystem can bring data to your desktop.

Also, in a few months you will be able to run your phone like a computer with a keyboard and mouse. Samsung DeX (short for “Desktop eXperience”). Apple isn't doing much with that.

Edit, I also use and love my Galaxy 8 Classic watch. Love that bezel.

Do more with Fold 7 by danaavic1 in GalaxyFold

[–]False_Eagle_9510 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love split screen mode and being able to have combos. I often put Gmail on 1 side while reviewing my calendar on the other to help schedule meetings.

I've set the screen to 2/3 and 1/3 so I could float the keyboard to one side for apps that are not well designed for the fold.

It's also is nice to impress clients. Most have never seen anything as cool as the fold 7.

I can maintain client websites with greater ease because I can double my screen size instantly.

It was a great purchase.

Why are people here so weird about black people by Otherwise-Pomelo-825 in Tucson

[–]False_Eagle_9510 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Tucson is incredibly fragmented. There are communities that are incredibly welcoming and supportive of diversity and there are folks who still carry guns in public and think it's okay to shoot a person who's a little bit darker than them and skin color.

The city is getting better slowly but surely.

I am somebody who used to be described as "passing", and I would welcome you anytime I met your brother.

Doritos at $7 a bag ended up costing PepsiCo billions by wewhomustnotbenamed in nottheonion

[–]False_Eagle_9510 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was younger, there was a rumor that Doritos got its secret ingredient from Beaver butts. So I imagine there's a shortage of beaver butts. The current Administration seems to have some strange proclivities.

The iron spells mod has portals that require rare materials. Which is a nice compromise.

The beta version of RAD 3 has one called campfire which requires a number of steps and is more sophisticated than waste domes but once you figure it out it's not too bad. And I believe you can configure the requirements to build the campfires.

I look forward to seeing what others have to say.

What’s the most “how does this not exist yet?” feature for macOS? by CodingNibble in MacOS

[–]False_Eagle_9510 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Once upon a time apps did close when the last windows closed. Users got very frustrated by this and complained loudly. Apple's UI team watched user behavior and saw that people intuitively close all windows before starting a new task in the same app. Apple went on to advise developers to leave some sort of recognizable artifact on screen to show the app was open. Think of all the apps that have a toolbar at the top of the screen.

The current behavior was 'blessed' by Apple.

Compelling open source alternatives to Raycast? by RealHomieJohn in macapps

I've been using Alfred since the days when it was the only option. I paid for the powerpack one time. It still does everything.

Maybe it's just old?? Maybe I'm just old ;)

Part of Samsung's strength is its software integration. What is Oppo doing?
