Android@lemdro.id•First time I hear about the Boox Palma, a phone-sized E-reader with Android and the Play Store, does anyone have it?English

Android@lemmy.world•Free and open-source YouTube clients w/ no adsEnglish
3·2 years agoStill in development but Lighttube seems interesting and uses its own backend.

Technology@lemmy.world•Roku has patented a way to show ads over anything you plug into your TVEnglish
71·2 years agoThis is like really horrific but if I’m being honest, it’s not going to happen. I think LG did a patent where you had to shout the brand being displayed on ads to skip an ad— and they never did that. This is probably a good thing so that other companies can’t use it for a few hundred years

Global News@lemmy.zip•Republican senator renews push to make daylight savings permanent
14·2 years agoDon’t do it. Daylight savings time saves 366 lives a year from traffic accidents alone Coate and Markowitz which while isn’t that much is still worth the inconvenience.
Also, 2015 paper from the Brookings Institute claims a 7% drop in crime, when they extended by 4 weeks, we saved 60 million dollars. If we account for indirect costs like those of murder, rape, we get 246 million saved (Popular Mechanics)
