To be fair a phone that can be docked and used as any number of other workstations should really be the goal. One device that can do everything is the dream... Running Linux also a requirement.

[–] Swedneck@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 4 days ago

i want to slot my phone into the computer like those cars where you insert the remote as a key.
The phone should have all the important data, and the computer is basically a smart dock that can be used on its own but when you insert the phone it's a seamless experience.

[–] tankplanker@lemmy.world 3 points 6 days ago

I did Samsung dex for a while, its ok as long as you don't want low level access to what you connecting to.

Now I switched to a gpd micropc 2 and its built in ethernet, sd card, usb a and c sockets and native linux make it so much more useful. No longer do i need dongles or other rubbish.

Plus it will do multiple monitor support, something dex struggles with. The keyboard is a little small for touch typing but the former factor is worth the trade of for me.

[–] narp@feddit.org 2 points 6 days ago

Starting from Android 15 you should be able activate a native "terminal" app in the Developer Settings, which is Debian running in a VM. No need for termux anymore. I have it activated in GrapheneOS but haven't used it much.

To be fair, all that buttplugs lack is internet connectivity and support for basic office software.

[–] pennomi@lemmy.world 33 points 1 week ago

Now everyone can get fucked by Microsoft Excel

I actually own a sex toy that, in order to use certain features, I need to connect to my phone via bluetooth and log in to their server on their app with a username and password. Careful what you wish for.

[–] Dojan@pawb.social 6 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Shit. Get Lovense or something instead. Still has Bluetooth connectivity but there are so many open source clients to make use of.

Why wouldn't the buttplug have internet connectivity? Kids, remember to update your sex toys with the latest security patches!

Hey some do have internet connectivity.

Someone is getting serious about their chess game

[–] Rooty@lemmy.world 21 points 1 week ago (3 children)

Internet connected buttplugs are great, there's even a model where you can create an entire chatroom to take control of it 😈

[–] Agent641@lemmy.world 1 points 5 days ago

How about a goldfish?

[–] Jimmycrackcrack@lemmy.ml 3 points 6 days ago (2 children)

The thing is, this would just be equivalent to leaving it on at all hours, because who would join such a chat room without the intention of switching it on. Even if you joined such a chat room and had some restraint and decided to wait till the moment you thought would be most amusing, someone else would definitely just decided that it should be on now and basically the only lull would be if the number of users was relatively limited and mostly in the same timezone so everyone is sleeping.

[–] Rooty@lemmy.world 1 points 6 days ago

You can vary intensity and vibration types, it isn't just on/off. And while you can invite randos for shits and giggles, the point is giving control to people you know😈

[–] Tangent5280@lemmy.world 1 points 6 days ago

The control element is that viewers would need to pay to turn/keep it on.

[–] MystikIncarnate@lemmy.ca 9 points 1 week ago

I've spent way too long on the Internet.

Because I actually understand this.

I should probably spend less time on the Internet.

[–] Bishma@discuss.tchncs.de 20 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (2 children)

Replace things?

Virtually every computing device I've ever owned is somewhere in the house I'm in. I sold my first PC (a Leading Edge 8088 IBM clone) and I still regret it. It'd have been hard to get hooked into my homelab, but I would have figured it out.

[–] PlaidBaron@lemmy.world 24 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Yeah but you cant shove it up your ass.

[–] musaoruc@lemmy.ml 21 points 1 week ago

Not with that attitude

[–] curbstickle@anarchist.nexus 9 points 1 week ago (1 children)

If at first you don't succeed...

Start with something smaller and work your way up or just push harder.

[–] psoul@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

Virtually every computing device I’ve ever owned is somewhere in the house I’m in. I sold my first PC (a Leading Edge 8088 IBM clone) and I still regret it. It’d have been hard to get hooked into my homelab, but I would have figured it out.

look at this fancy bastard and his house that he owns with storage space.

[–] dual_sport_dork@lemmy.world 13 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Well you see, they built that house entirely out of old computer cases nailed together.

[–] lividweasel@lemmy.world 12 points 1 week ago

It’s a beige house that’s slowly turning yellow.

I switched my house for a shitty apartment and I'm never going back. I replaced my car with a streetcar and bus ride and you should too. I switched my wife for being single, and she's never coming back.

[–] MystikIncarnate@lemmy.ca 6 points 1 week ago

Sounds like you need to play country music in reverse.

[–] Magister@lemmy.world 13 points 1 week ago (3 children)

Seriously I replaced my PC (you know, big tower with lot of fans) with a Beelink MiniPC and OMG I do not regret it! It is super small, like 4"x5", sitting on my desk, sometimes I can hear the fan but mostly never, it's fast, quiet, powerful. Best thing ever.

[–] Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world 18 points 1 week ago

Unless you want to do AAA gaming or 4k video editing, a cheap mini PC will be pretty much all you need. Those things have been getting pretty good lately.

I love the amazing advances in hardware and general tech that enabled this progression.

However, what I am finding only works better and better for my brain and well-being is to push in the opposite direction. I went from wearing a smart watch 23 hours a day, 365 days of the year for several years, to not even knowing where it is right now.

I do most of my computing/gaming/browsing on an old desktop PC running Linux. I just replaced the fans in one of the PCs that's 15 years old because they sounded like a locomotive.

The best part though is getting up to get a drink, hit the restroom, or even go chill outside with my pets for an hour and just leave my phone wherever it's sitting. Just some time to exist and pay attention to my senses and the world around me without getting fucking notifications.

Or hell, even being at work and literally working on technology while being isolated from the outside tech world trying to get my attention.

Though if you have a smart watch that can save you from missing notifications during those times. That's why mine had to go, lol.

[–] Hupf@feddit.org 7 points 1 week ago (1 children)
[–] Zink@programming.dev 4 points 6 days ago

Love it.

And that might be one I haven't seen, which is even better.

[–] hardcoreufo@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I've worn a pebble smartwatch for a decade just to avoid all the annoying noises our phones make non stop. So i keep my phone on silent and I've got the pebble set to only get notifications for texts and calls neither of which i get a ton of on a daily basis. I like to be able to glance down and either ignore or pull out my phone and deal with.

I am also a big fan of leaving my phone in the other room and dont wear the pebble a lot on weekends just to get a break.

[–] Zink@programming.dev 2 points 6 days ago

I've never had a pebble but they always looked great. If I wanted to go back to a smart watch but keep it more watch-like and less "tiny phone stuck to my body" then I'd be checking them out.

The benefit you described is one of the things that led me to wear one for so long. You get notifications silently yet they can be attention-grabbing (adhd sends its regards), and you can check them or the time or the weather without fumbling with your phone.

[–] yetAnotherUser@discuss.tchncs.de 10 points 1 week ago (1 children)

My requirements are bidirectional communication. If the buttplug doesn't register and decode clench-morsecode, I will not use it!

[–] InnerScientist@lemmy.world 7 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Of course!

Then, when AWS goes down it'll turn on randomly, reset the password to the default 50 character password and not unlock until you've input it corectly.

I want one of those internet connected buttplugs so I can actually get fucked by the gay people in my phone and not just the ones IRL.
