This is why I use Start11

Man, am I happy that I stopped using my Roku and switched to an Nvidia Shield TV. I’m also happy that I have a “dumb TV”!

I tried the Official Windows 11 start menu. I had disabled showing “recommended apps” in the settings. This hid the icons, but not the section. So, whenever I opened the start menu, the entire bottom half was a section that said “enable recommended apps to show them here.”

That’s when I installed Start11 (I also bought StartAllBack, but I preferred Start11) and never looked back.

Code money get up get coffee, code monkey go to job.

You said you didn’t get it, I explained.

Nikki is not short for Nimarata, Nikki is actually her middle name (which is not her first name, like I said). I assume she goes by her middle name so people don’t know she’s of Indian descent.

Joe is short for Joseph.

That’s her real name, “Nikki” isn’t actually her first name.

I haven’t heard of this one. Personally, I use FLauncher.

Yes, there are a few ways to do it. You need to have logged into the Fossil app with an email/password, it didn’t seem to work with “login with Google.”

I used a python script that I ran on my computer that got the private key from the Fossil servers.

NOTE: You need to add the private key before pairing with GadgetBridge, if you add it after then it won’t work.

I recently switched to using GadgetBridge with my Fossil Hybrid. It was a little annoying to set up, but it works.

I had an LG smartwatch that was rectangular.

I had a Fossil Wear OS smartwatch, I liked it but I barely used any of its features. Basically, I’d use it to notify me of messages and then I could see whether or not to pick up my phone.

I sold it and bought a Fossil hybrid (Collider HR) and I love that thing. The battery lasts about 2 weeks and people always think it’s so cool that it has physical hands.

It shows me whenever I get a message or calendar notification (or whatever notifications I want) and that’s all I care about.

I haven’t looked at the newer generation of watches, but I don’t think I’d upgrade or anything.

I also have other Fossil stuff, like belts. They make cool stuff, but they’ve always been a fashion brand first before a tech brand.

If they stop making smartwatches, are there any other brands that make good hybrid, eink watches?

Also, the article just mentioned they’d stop making Wear OS devices so maybe they’ll still make the hybrid watches?

They were bought out

People still use AdBlock Plus? I thought that was long since dead. You know, since they sold out and let companies pay them to show ads.

I’d suggest the Firefox extension libredirect. Automatically redirects Twitter, Instagram, Reddit and more to alternative front-ends.

I haven’t seen this video before. Thanks for that!

I’m glad my comment was so powerful and meaningful that it’s creating a whole scandal of its own!

So, no one?

Am I the only one who hates “-gate” used to call something a “scandal?”

Watergate was the name of the hotel, it wasn’t a scandal involving water!

Ask me about my weiner!

Vaccine court

There’s a specific court just for vaccines? Is that by regular court and family court?
