Same - had exactly this problem. I’m not exactly sure if I found a real fix in the end, it just eventually inexplicably started working. Think I tried changing ram slots and having to change some options in the bios - might be worth trying there as a start!

It’s so interesting seeing the discourse on fedi about threads and meta - like I absolutely think it’s the right call for so many instances to not federate with meta because they for sure will be scraping user data and it will be a moderation nightmare, but this article raises a really valid point. Federation is almost a harm reduction approach for so many users who aren’t so privacy aware and are keen to be connected to their friends and family on threads.

I’m not a fan of the fedi superiority complex we so often see - people who use meta products aren’t a monolith, they’re people just like us, and a huge majority of them simply aren’t aware of the privacy implications of meta’s approach, or it’s not a huge priority for them.

The issue here is exactly the issue affirmative action aims to help resolve - if you leave it so universities can if they so choose look at how someone’s experience of race has impacted on them, many of them won’t, because of structural racism and how ingrained it is. This decision is not requiring universities to consider their admission practices and what barriers might be in place - and many won’t.

It’d be great if they did, and in an ideal world we wouldn’t need requirements like this because universities and other organisations would proactively consider how their processes and decisions might be creating or removing barriers for all their students. Currently, that isn’t happening.

I did it last night and it was super simple and straightforward!

Thanks for that debloat link, that’s super useful!

Oh, this is so neat, thank you! I’ve just had a play - especially for a work phone that has real specific uses, Niagara makes a lot of sense! Do you subscribe to pro? Have you found it useful?

Oooh thanks for lawnchair, that’s great!

Thank you, that’s super helpful! I’ll have a hunt to disable bloat and have a play with adb if need be. I’m the one in charge so I can basically do what I like 😅

Yeah, I see that launchers are way more common now! Got any you’d recommend?

Oh, that’s interesting to hear, I had no idea!

It’ll be interesting to see how this and ig interface, and how this will play out in the fediverse. Imagine a future where instagram users could follow pixelfed accounts!

Oh snap, i didn’t think about it from that perspective! Instagram is still the place where sharing my work gets the most reach, I hadn’t thought about what this app might mean for that.

I really enjoyed the Mario maker race - it’s always thrilling! Excited to catch up on blindfolded botw too!
