It makes me happy that I don't even know what that means. Well, I didn't until now.

Mine didn't either when I lived in a dorm. I got around the network block.

1. Plug Xbox 360 into ethernet wall port
2. Log into uni network, get internet
3. Plug router directly into pc.
4. Assign router same ip as Xbox
5. Spoof router mac address to match xbox
6. Unplug from pc
7. Quickly swap cable in wall from Xbox cable to router cable, Indiana Jones style
8. Internet for 1 month. Repeat monthly.

Shh, humans are talking.

Could I instead interest you in an embody? I find it's a much better model.

If you've been using Linux for 20 years that makes sense, as I have a lot of applications I used on windows that are not available on linux and have no alternative in any repo or flatpak, only as weird little projects on github (that don't work half the time). So I've spent a lot of time trying to replicate a resemblance of my work flow and QoL luxuries. Your work flow has been refined over that 20 years with little windows influence.

Yeah it's missing several returns to you.

Correct! It's where web searches bring me so it's what I use until I git gud enough to learn how to find things better.

I do in my server! But I didn't even consider it in terms of a workstation.

Oh cool, I'll have to check it out! Thanks!

Close, but not quite!

Yes the world of github and linux is vast and I am like a newborn baby. I hope to visit your bubble one day my friend.

Alternate twitch player or something like that

My substandard pizza is like $4, edible crust isn't worth the difference when an upgrade is slightly less substandard pizza.

Mullvad even lets you send them an envelope with cash in it, with no identifying info other than your account number.

No script lets you individually allow js on certain sites, even specific sources. Block all by default, allow safe sites or temporarily allow other sites based on need. I started doing that this year and it hasn't been nearly as much trouble as I thought it would be.

Exactly, so use Proton :P

Hey, very cool app. One thing that could be a massive improvement is the ability to tap the thumbnails in "compact mode" to open a bigger version of the image without loading the whole post. Boost (for reddit and for lemmy) has something like this (though not as snappy as I'd like), and relay for reddit had the perfect implementation of this. It was quick and easy. You tap the thumbnail to blow the image up to the max screen width, tap again to dismiss the image. Ideally there would be no lag between when you tap and when the image is loaded, same with dismissing. (I disabled double tap in relay so the image dismissal didn't wait for a 2nd tap, making it quicker.)

Obviously this is a very nice and niche feature, so it might be outside the scope of the app. But if you find yourself itching to add some features, keep this in mind :) It would fit well with the "fast, fluid browsing" theme of the app.

I took a video to give a quick example but uploading it to lemmy.world isn't working, I don't want to share my youtube account, and I don't want to make you download a random file from a file sharing site, so you can check out this behavior in those 2 apps if you need an example.

I had to pay 4000 yesterday because I went to the hospital for a heart-related scare which turned out to be nothing (and some low potassium) after some tests. That was with insurance. Without, it would have been just over $75,000.

Edit: I stayed at the hospital overnight for 3 days and 2 nights.
