thanks, I see now. really well made response video.

Sabine Hossenfelder - they have positions that cause hurt to people

Can you elaborate on this? I haven’t really watched much of her content, so I am not quite sure how she’s causing hurt.

• large
• tap water can be dirty
• great curry
• massive population
• caste system
• makes many YouTube tutorials
• has some beef with Pakistan
• likes to bob their heads
• arranged marriages
• spices
• really hot and humid
• as other people have mentioned, can be a bit unruly at times

You should try out these so-called ear clip headphones (aka clip on buds). I got this pair at a thrift store for ~US$3 yesterday. They latch on to your ear on the outside and do not go deep into your ears. Great for tight earussies or for earussy periods.

Did you get a phone case with your pixel? I didn’t when I bought my pixel 6a.

The phone case was a complimentary gift from the e-commerce platform I bought the phone from. Not from Google themselves. My guess is that they wanted to get rid of these 2023 H2 Limited Edition Pixel × Rhinoshield Phone Case Pixel 8 - Black that no one wanted to buy, so they decided to just give it away. Pretty thoughtful gift actually.

ikr

Thanks. Will try this. Actually just an hour ago I removed the period (.) by scratching at it with my fingernails. (I know, fingernails after all these answers hah.) However I don’t think fingernails scale well. Sugar granules must work too.

Thanks! Will try this.

Eh, I get you now. Maybe it was not such a good idea to censor words on a place like Lemmy where everyone (except lemmy.ml admins) is so against censoring words.

Yeah I’ll keep this in mind, thanks.

Edit: why tf does this comment have two downvotes? I understand why my other comments were controversial, but this one too? Really?

I am aware that I’m not advertising for them by asking a question about this here. I just thought it would be funny to censor Google and Pixel as if they were swear words. It’s fine if you don’t share my sense of humor though.

This exposes GrapheneOS to a few potential users, and I think this is worth the few hundred dollars that Google might get, lol

A rotary tool seems a bit… extreme to me. Maybe I’ll try that out if the IPA treatment suggested by the other commenters fail. I don’t have a laser etcher but I might have some luck if I go ask the machines-go-whrrr-bzzzhhht-keeee-place at my school. Thanks!

Thanks, I’ll try out IPA on a less obvious spot to see if it damages the case and if it removes the text. If that doesn’t work maybe I’ll just live with covering it with my fingers. I agree, the “AI” is funny.

Yes, I actually try to consciously cover it with my hands and never let it sit screen side down.

Thanks, I will try using IPA.

I didn’t want to fucking swear on the internet

ow, my bad

The proverb you can’t make a silk purse out of a sow’s ear means you can’t create a fine product from inferior materials.

I’d argue it’s closer to 朽木不可雕^. 巧婦難為無米之炊 (巧妇难为无米之炊) is more like you can’t make stuff without the necessary requirements.

^朽木不可雕: Lit. Rotten wood can’t be carved, metaphorically You can’t teach a student that is too dumb.

… Well actually no. Upon looking into these 3 idioms further while composing this comment, I leaned more and more towards that 巧婦難為無米之炊 is actually closer. Why? Because 朽木不可雕 applies only to humans and it puts more of a focus on the rotten wood (aka the dumb student).

I guess this comment was kind of useless lol but I decided to post it anyway because I put in way too much effort

I should point out that I got a phone from the notorious Google for GrapheneOS.

Edit: uncensored the names

Why does it seem like everyone in the comment section takes flights all the time? For me, flying on an airplane is for vacations abroad only, and I maybe get 2 flights a year at most. I assume this is one of those US things I’m too Asian to understand.
