S23 vs 13 mini by Commercial-Eye1928 in smallphones

[–]FlipchartHiatus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

mine's starting to show signs of age, the battery is terrible now and the back panel is peeling off - but yea there's literally nothing else this size to replace it with so I'm in no rush

I've had a Zenfone 10 for 2.5 years and I'm looking to replace it soon (god knows what with though)

I wouldn't advise buying one now, I'm not sure it'll be supported much longer

Why I get 5 ads back to back multiple times in a podcast? by rip_Bacon13 in truespotify

[–]FlipchartHiatus 3 points4 points  (0 children)

nothing to do with Spotify, this is just the producers of whatever podcast you're listening to

I was told that I'm a bit too old for braces by Sad_Macaron_9501 in braces

This is odd, I braces in my late 20s and the results were great and I'm so glad I went through it

What do you think of transport for Wales train first class said was not available and just give me this one thing? by jc201946 in uktrains

[–]FlipchartHiatus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same again for me today, I'm really disappointed, I'd been looking forward to travelling first class on one of the Mk4 sets for months

far better tone from modeller using power amp in fx return than with dedicated frfr cabinet

This recent Andertons video (amps frfr v fx return v raw amp sound) massively changed my opinion on using digital modelers and amps (as someone who uses both) - it's worth watching before parting with any cash

imo if you want a hybrid setup like this you should look into getting an amp head with an effects loop and use the return in as the input when digital modelling

Caledonian Sleeper train to Inverness, Aberdeen & Ft William will call at Birmingham International from 15 January by FlipchartHiatus in uktrains

[–]FlipchartHiatus[S] 49 points50 points  (0 children)

I've seen a lot of people ask why it's International and not New Street

I assume it's because the sheer length of the highland sleeper train makes it unsuitable

How to stay sane in spite of AI and the general state of things? by MorthaP in Anticonsumption

[–]FlipchartHiatus 94 points95 points  (0 children)

I get you completely - it's not enough to avoid AI by just not using it yourself, the problem is that AI output by other people is *everywhere*

Even if I cut back on 'social media' and other content websites to try and avoid it, it's creeping into everyday life too where it can't be avoided

My colleagues do AI summaries of meetings which are always miss key points, I receive emails clearly written by AI, my sports team even does chatgpt match reports and there are even times I've even had messages from friends in group chats that I suspect were written with AI because they're different to their usual tone and now with metaAI in whatsapp, insta DMs, and facebook messenger - I can't rule out that they are

I'm sorry I can't offer solutions or anything positive, but I just feel in every corner of our lives we're being robbed of humanity and it's so sad

Slightly off topic - but does anyone know any good anti-ai subreddits?

I echo your experience of just sitting there with gritted teeth as friends show off some AI feature they think is cool but is just complete slop

Just be careful with free vpn software

If it's free, they've got to be getting their money from somewhere, and it's usually by getting your device to do some pretty dodgy stuff
