I waddled onto the beach and stole found a computer to use.

Winters’ lawyers alleged the platform “repeatedly and insistently misdiagnosed” him while drawing on previous discussions about religion to assure him he would recover.
I forgot that it “learns” now, I haven’t tried it in a long while 🤦
I haven’t tried any myself yet, but I’ve heard that watches have a hard time reading the data compared to bands that go around your arm or chest, or even the rings. I don’t think I’d enjoy wearing a ring while sleeping though
I think people are tired of these headlines because we’ve seen the same thing for many companies, without lasting consequences. It’s even worse for elon musk related stocks, because of how much manipulation those ones go through.
I don’t have a source, so take it with a grain of salt, but I vaguely remember a discussion that one of his companies couldn’t remove him because the stock was artificially inflated by his presence. It might have been tesla
This guide page goes into what an alternative UI is, and some of the popular ones that are available. It is a little out of date, lemmy.ca also dropped tesseract we are no longer hosting Tesseract for lemmy.ca

The controversy around tesseract is better explained elsewhere, but it boils down to a questionable blocklist that the dev was injecting into the tool, without it being made apparent to the users or admins
This seems simple enough
According to The Guardian, which covered the story earlier this week following the court’s first hearing on Monday, Atlanta resident Samuel Tunick is fighting the charges. Tunick’s attorneys said that it was unlawful for U.S. Customs and Border Protection to seize his phone as he arrived back in the U.S. last year and that any evidence — including the alleged wiping of his phone — should be thrown out.
Also for context, the resident was targeted for connection to protests
https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026/jul/23/cop-city-protester-phone
The US Department of Justice is attempting to prosecute an Atlanta resident in connection with the movement against the police training center known as Cop City because he had GrapheneOS on his phone, an open-source operating system that enables users to enter a passcode and wipe a phone clean.
The defendant, Sam Tunick, was stopped for interrogation at Atlanta’s Hartsfield-Jackson airport on 24 January last year, after vacationing in the Dominican Republic. Unbeknown to him, federal authorities had put him on a terrorism watchlist because of his alleged association with the movement against Cop City.
Opposition to the $109m police training center, which opened last spring, came from a wide range of local and national organizations and protesters, centered on concerns around police militarization and clearing forests in an era of climate crisis. Atlanta police said the center was needed for “world-class” training and to attract new officers.
Several state attempts to prosecute Cop City protesters have foundered in the last several years, while this is the second recent federal effort, after the justice department announced another indictment last month.

I have heard that a dedicated sleep tracking device will work better than the watches, but I don’t have any direct experience there.
Maybe you can find one that can export the data over a USB cable
Blorp seems to support it: select the three dots next to a username -> Author -> Tag Author
There is discussion about adding this to Lemmy proper: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/1456
Welcome!
Check out !newtolemmy@lemmy.ca if you have any questions
We’ve also put together a guide, and new users might find these pages helpful:

Sounds like we should get this place ready for another wave of people
There are a few solid ones there. Photon and Blorp are my personal favourites on desktop
appreciate it :)
I think we just notice it more because we have less content, so you’re more likely to hear about each bit of drama that comes up and you’re more likely to know one of the parties involved. There was lots of drama on reddit too, but I didn’t subscribe to the communities that talked about it and I often didn’t know enough about each incident to judge anyone
It’s still annoying though 🫤
If you have a community center nearby, you can see if they have gym equipment. Those memberships should be simple to get and cancel.
It seems like these articles came out after the huggingface ones
Sounds like they got caught trying to steal from huggingface, and are now trying to market off of it
I found this whole comment thread to be a waste of time, here:

And if that’s too complicated of a comparison for them: “Don’t complain about Canadian smoke until you deal with American smoke”
This article came out yesterday: https://www.ctvnews.ca/vancouver/article/us-wildfires-responsible-for-much-of-the-smoke-in-bc-region-officials/
“As wildfire activity increases, so has smoke across many areas of the region. Much of this smoke is originating from fires south of the Canada-U.S. border and will have varying impacts over the coming days,” an update Saturday evening said.
Ontario Premier Doug Ford was asked Friday about the growing number of American criticisms of wildfire management. In response, he alluded to Canada’s contributions to fighting U.S. fires, including those that ripped through California last year.
“Maybe what you should do, rather than complain, is send support, send help, because we have done the exact same thing for our American friends, and that’s what you’re supposed to do,” he said.
Just days before Trump’s post, 56-year-old Canadian pilot Nicholas Dale was killed while fighting a forest fire in Colorado.
I want to see Canadian countermeasures aimed specifically at the Republican regions that made comments like this.
I don’t love the toggle, but some of the other components are fun, like the slider.
On the right type of site, these components could be a lot of fun
I would have expected people to be more angry at the US’s actions than Argentina’s.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2026_Trump–FIFA_red_card_controversy
During the 2026 World Cup, FIFA suspended the implementation of a one-game suspension that United States men’s national soccer team player Folarin Balogun had received after he was sent off in a round of 32 match victory against the Bosnia and Herzegovina national team for a foul on Tarik Muharemović. Balogun’s suspension was delayed for a probationary period of one year under the Article 27 authority of the FIFA Disciplinary Code. United States president Donald Trump had directly called FIFA president Gianni Infantino asking him to review the red card decision. The decision allowed Balogun to participate in the United States’ Round of 16 match against Belgium despite the red card remaining in effect. Belgium won the match 4–1, with Balogun playing almost the entire match

Another controversy, similar to when the events were hosted in Russia and Qatar, involves host countries immigration policies. The controversy during the 2026 FIFA World Cup, United States immigration and visa policies under the second Trump administration, which have affected players, officials, journalists, and fans from several qualified nations. A travel ban affecting citizens of 39 countries—including World Cup participants Haiti, Iran, Ivory Coast, and Senegal—has prevented most ordinary fans from those countries from obtaining visas to attend matches in the United States, though exemptions were granted for athletes, coaches, and essential support staff, as well as dual citizens, permanent residents, and valid visa holders. A separate visa bond program initially required fans from five African nations to pay deposits of up to $15,000, a requirement that was temporarily suspended in May 2026 for ticketed fans. Iraqi striker Aymen Hussein was detained for seven hours upon arrival at O’Hare International Airport, while Somali referee Omar Artan was denied entry and was unable to officiate at the tournament.
I’ll edit that comment for clarity
We host a few of the frontends on our own infrastructure, which improves performance for users, among other benefits like reducing strain elsewhere. It’s also easy for our local users to remember that
