AstralPath , to Android in Horrible Pictures Zenfone 8

That's just how digital zoom works with modern phones. Optical zoom is typically very limited so you're stuck with digital zoom.

AstralPath , to No Stupid Questions in Does it seem odd to track my lifespan?

29ish? I can't remember anymore.

AstralPath , to No Stupid Questions in Does it seem odd to track my lifespan?

I did this for a while in anticipation of my 10,000 Days birthday. I took that day off work and did nothing but play games, chill on the deck, drink beer, smoked a bit of weed and spun Tool's "10,000 Days" album after smashing a pizza down my gullet for supper.

It was a great day.

AstralPath , to Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ in Pirating guitar and bass tabs?

Awesome. Glad you found it! Enjoy!

AstralPath , to Android in Gross. Android defaults are a privacy nightmare.

Consider getting a Pixel as your next phone, immediately flash GrapheneOS onto it and never look back. Its very easy to do.

AstralPath , to Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ in Pirating guitar and bass tabs?

Gotta choose the Guitar Pro version of the tab in the search results then scroll aaaaalll the way to the bottom of the page to find that button.

AstralPath , to Technology in FCC explicitly prohibits fast lanes, closing possible net neutrality loophole

I'm enjoying watching you dig this massive pit for yourself. Lol

AstralPath , to Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ in Pirating guitar and bass tabs?

You can download PowerTab or TuxGuitar for free. You can also sail the high seas and get the GOAT, Guitar Pro 5. With those programs you can download the Guitar Pro/PowerTab versions of the songs on UG and have all the full featured playback that you want.

Ultimate-Guitar has a massive library of free tabs. You don't need their Pro subscription.

AstralPath , to Technology in Mullvad VPN: Introducing Defense against AI-guided Traffic Analysis (DAITA)

Bootstrapping See the Application section specifically.

FOSS = Free/Open Source Software
TCP = Transmission Control Protocol
VPN = Virtual Private Network

These words mean a lot actually. Pretty basic terms when it comes to the internet.

AstralPath , to Ask Lemmy in You have 24 hours to do anything with absolutely no consequences. What do you do?

You could do literally anything with impunity and you choose to steal catalytic converters?

This is somehow worse than Dwight's fantasy of working in hell for $88,000 a year.

AstralPath , to Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ in I'll never understand this kind of mindset.

Naïveté. Its not devs that set the price. Publishers do not have your best interests in mind. They will always choose to make more money. They don't give a fuck about literally anything else.

The prices will never be lower. Purchasing no longer grants ownership. This is why piracy is justified in a lot of cases.

Support devs that respect the community. Steal from those that don't. Or even better, don't play games whose publishers treat the community like shit.

AstralPath , to Technology in YouTube's war against third party apps is just as ridiculous as its war on adblockers

Thirty 30 second ads? Am I reading that wrong?

AstralPath , to Android in Google's plan is to annoy you relentlessly until you update Messages

If this annoys you, try QKSMS instead. Go another step further and flash GrapheneOS onto your Pixel. It's worth it for the peace of mind.

AstralPath , to No Stupid Questions in What are these "bass" and "treble" that I see in an equalizer ?

Bass is the low pitched sound content of what you're listening to. Treble is the high pitched content. Literally if its something that sounds high pitched to you, that's treble. Anything in between the low pitched and high pitched content is called 'midrange'.

A bass drum goes "boom". A bass guitar goes "bump, bump, bump". Those all sound like low pitched descriptions, right?
A cymbal goes "crashhhhhhhhh" and a wind chime goes "twinkle, twinkle". Both high pitched sounds. When you adjust bass or treble, you're adjusting how loud the elements in those ranges of the audio spectrum are in the overall mix of the sounds you're hearing in your music/media.

If the "crashhhhhhhh" is too loud and hurts your ears, turn the treble down. Similarly if the "boom" is overwhelming, turn the bass down. Just adjust them to your tastes and that's all you need to know.
