Do note that Simple Gallery Pro on Play Store uses a non-FOSS editor.

Simple Gallery Pro and Fossify Gallery on F-Droid uses a basic FOSS editor.

I remember when people used to type AoS-like game (Aeon of Strife) when hosting a similar custom map on SC or Warcraft III

i.e. DotA 5v5 AoS-like

Then after DotA got popular, it became DotA-like

i.e. Naruto Wars 5v5 DotA-like

You can technically just make yourself a mod of your own private subreddit, then NSFW works fine with the API. It works with RedReader. I still use Reddit a bit for very niche subreddits.

I wish there were more non-gendered restrooms.

The one's I've been to usually has shared sinks and has stalls that fully enclosed, as in you can't look under the stall. Most restrooms in the US, you can see under the stall in front and from an adjacent stall.

And the urinals is usually in a separate area of the restrooms.

If you don't need port fowarding for torrents, I recommend Mullvad.

I swapped to AirVPN after Mullvad dropped port forwarding. AirVPN app on Android & Linux kinda sucks. Linux one is usable at least. The Android one is just bad, but I just use the Wireguard app instead of the AirVPN app.

Don't forget some people run RAID, which means you need duplicates of the HDD. That really adds up.

I've had issues with FedEx, Amazon, DHL, USPS, UPS, Ontrac. I personally can't just avoid them all unless I just want to avoid any kind of shipment. I've actually had the least issues with FedEx & DHL. It's all on a person-by-person basis.

USPS is one of the most annoying ones. In many places I've lived, I somehow keep getting couriers that marks a package delivered but it isn't there. And when I call USPS, they said I have to wait a couple days to report it missing. I know that doesn't happen to everyone; I am just unlucky.

They can pay themselves a wage, which is a business expense, and then save their wages like everyone else.

Your teashop friend could just as easily pay themselves to run their shop and invest whatever is left into the shop. Profit isn’t necessary.

I find it confusing. How do you differentiate if that is a "wage" or "profit"? How does a person who owns a small business determine how much wage to pay themselves with? I would think most small business owners will just put enough money into the business expenses for how big they want their business to be, then take the rest for themselves.

A small business typically don't need as much money to reinvest back into the business itself unless they are looking to expand the business to something bigger. There is only so much you can spend for business expenses when you don't want to deal with expanding your business even bigger. Some people only want to own a small shop.

For example, my friend at the tea shop is happy with the size of their small shop. They already offer enough stock to locals. They don't want to expand anymore. She loves running a tea shop and talking to locals, but does not want to deal with running a big store with employees. But from what you're saying, they should keep reinvesting in the business, even though the business doesn't need more money to avoid making a profit.

I understand profit is an issue with bigger companies due to them stealing money from their employees by paying themselves much more, but I am trying to understand how profit shouldn't exist for a smaller / mom and pop / 1 person shop.

I am confused. From what you're saying, profit shouldn't exist, only business expenses.

So a Mom and Pop shop doesn't need to make any profit to pay for their living expenses (not business) and shouldn't be allowed to have money to go on trips or vacation themselves?

Employees are able to go work to make money to spend on living costs, personal things, and vacation.

I have a friend who owns a tea shop with no employees. So she isn't allowed to make a profit? Only allowed to make enough to keep the business running? Sounds like that would be miserable. Might as well close the store and be an employee of another business.

deku sms

I haven't used this, but it seems to do way more than the average person know how to use for an SMS app

Even in the readme, it says:

The technical functionalities of the app are currently not user friendly, which would be updated with the help of PRs and issues. The reason for the lack of user friendliness is solely based on the app aiming to be as customizable as possible. Users should be able to configure the app to their custom cloud servers without being tied into using specific providers.

Less fees taken if you donate instead of buying most likely.

Droidify shows the donation links fine, which is nice!

I would love to buy games from GOG, but they haven't worked on a Linux version of GOG Galaxy. It's back to a service issue again.

Yup! Whereas with Media Tracker, everything is pretty much almost instantaneous for me.

Ryot was too slow for me. It's really bad when you try to mark multiple TV series seasons as "seen" at the same time as well.

I personally recommend tvQuickActions for remapping. Pro Version.

It is quite feature rich as well for power users

Unfortunately, it looks like they deleted the Windows branch in Sept 2023

It is only made for Docker, which you can run on Windows, MacOS, and Linux
