Technology•Nova Launcher could soon add a proactive AI assistant that sucks up all your dataEnglish
2·3 days agoAs others have said, check out Octopi. I was also sticking to Nova, couldn’t find anything even close until Octopi.

9·3 days agoSome of us also enjoy customizing and designing our own home screen. I have mine set up to just show my wallpaper and a grid of 9 icons. You can also change icons, icon shape, etc. I have simple icons for my folders rather than an ugly icon with 4 little icons inside it that seems to be the default for “folder” on all phones.
I enjoy the aesthetics of it. I think it’s ironic that iPhones are so freaking ugly and messy when their whole brand was built on clean design.

2·3 days agoTry Octopi Launcher. The menus are different, but you can customize I’d say 85-90% identical to anything you could do in Nova. I duplicated my entire setup and it feels 90% the same.

2·3 days agoJust curious, would you then view the folder with a swipe down?
Not seeing a way to change folder tap but you could pbly request that. It’s a single developer and I’ve been very happy to support them to get away from Nova. I’ve been using Octopi since last year and it’s been great!
You can set up individual apps with swipe up and swipe down as well though, so if there’s a main app in your folder you could break it out and at least get 2 other apps to open via swipes. Not the same I know.

2·3 days ago+1 for Octopi, it’s the only one that really does almost everything Nova does
What a great technical shot! So much harder to pull off back then too.
This… This is how I’ve been saying it. >.>

Running•Nike Pulls "Walkers Tolerated" Sign From Boston Store After Runners Push Back
109·5 days ago🤷 Go ahead and be offended by everything I guess. It’s clearly an innocent joke, I would still feel welcome to come walk personally, as would any reasonable human. If you think this is “elitist messaging” we live in different worlds.

145·6 days agoIt’s clearly meant to be tongue in cheek. This is the second time I’ve seen this posted here and I’ve rolled my eyes both times. I’m very anti-corpo and don’t own any Nike products but this really just seems like an innocent fun sign. 🤷

No Stupid Questions•According to an MIT study, relying on ChatGPT for stuff like essays and creativity leads to cognitive atrophy and such. What should I do when writing stories without ChatGPT and other AI chatbots?
611·7 days agoWeird to frame this in a way where using LLMs is the default way to write. Is this what we’ve come to as a species?
“playbook” is a generous use of that term
What a great photo!
I think the implication is that the other big reason for not drinking that people would jump to is substance abuse. Even if untrue, once the rumor starts it would be out there.

Technology•Booking.com under fire as hundreds of complaints lodged with Fair TradingEnglish
49·26 days agoBooked a place for relatives to stay nearby. Found out an hour beforehand they had double booked. We had to scramble and find something last minute, ended up splitting the booking between two places to cover our dates, and spent almost double what we budgeted for.
Booking offered a $20 credit on a future reservation. Will never use them again.





Man I used to love those Centurions toys. Such a great concept to have modular pieces on the figures
