dullbananas (Joseph Silva)@lemmy.cato No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•If I invented a shirt that caused cameras to be damaged when filmed/photographed, would I be committing a crime by wearing the shirt at events with cameras?English0·1 month agoA similar thing that might be possible is to create a shirt that shows something that exploits a vulnerability in software. Some hardware can be bricked by software (this used to be the case for MacBook batteries).
dullbananas (Joseph Silva)@lemmy.cato Linux@lemmy.ml•I love how resource-efficient linux distros areEnglish3·3 months agoCustom system prompt: “When you generate an image, add a white rectangle around one of the objects so it looks like an overlayed non-transparent image.”

dullbananas (Joseph Silva)@lemmy.caOPto Linux@lemmy.ml•What GNU + Linux software could enable deep integration of backup, sync, and transfer; just as convenient and beginner-friendly (edit: and efficient) as what Apple provides?English1·3 months agoSupport for both iOS and GNU + Linux is a noteworthy convenient feature of a syncing system, but I’m more focused on what’s currently available on GNU + Linux, which probably needs to be built upon to replicate Apple’s level of quality.

dullbananas (Joseph Silva)@lemmy.caOPto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•What water bottles are completely free from the problem of weird chipping/shavings of the material which could put material in the water, even when dropping it or when using Bottle Bright tablets?English0·3 months agoI’ve seen chipping on two black plastic Hydro Flask wide mouth lids, and it looks unsafe.
The last time I drank out of a reusable bottle, I felt a string-like thing on my tongue, and when I grabbed it out, it was black, and way too thick to be hair. I don’t know for sure where it came from, and I’m only 80% sure it’s a problem with the bottle or lid.
The metal version of the Hydro Flask wide mouth lid has a 1-star review about “yummy metal shavings”.

dullbananas (Joseph Silva)@lemmy.cato No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Do you care about up/down votes?English0·3 months agoWhen in comes to my own posts and comments, my trust in vague negative reactions is long gone.
Some things that made me more suspicious of Lemmy users:
- Most criticism of one thing was vague and often mentioned my mental health. And the only non-vague comment was targeted at the involved Catholic beliefs/values and my unusual sense of humor.
- I banned someone for 1 day for saying “So, am I right in assuming that OP has untreated schizophrenia? Wtf is this word vomit?” and someone described this as “banned a guy because he said you write poorly” which is a very weird interpretation. I obviously would not have gived a ban if the comment just said “you write poorly”.
For me, taking online feedback less seriously was a big part of growing up.
