The quick block is there, under "filter".

It’s also faster than chrome now I think.

Resource management is much better. Chrome will max out the RAM, which slows down the browser. Firefox handles that 100x better.

I'm not using Voyager (found your post by browsing /all/new) but this happened to me on the lemmy.world web frontend a couple times over the last hour, so it might have been some malfunction on their end.

It doesn't work in China, if that's any indication.

You might want to sign up with astrill. Greetings from China, we've been dealing with this shit for decades.

I've had some mango-infused beans that were quite interesting, from a small roaster in Hungary. I don't like acidity at all, so getting any fruity notes in a coffee that's not tainted by acid is a rare find for me, so I liked it quite a bit. On the other hand I don't really see the difference of adding (microdosing, really) flavorings to the coffee after brewing if I just want a hint of something else.

Been experimenting around a bit, and what really does it for me is to use a cinnamon stick to stir a freshly brewed espresso for a a few seconds. Can be reused for weeks. Adds a very subtle, mellow flavor that I quite enjoy.

If it's anything like Kopi Bubuk from Indonesia (fine as literal flour), then it's meant to be brewed in the cup. Simply put a heaped tablespoon into a mug, fill with boiling water, stir it for a second, let rest for a bit, stir it again, let rest until all grounds sink to the bottom, and then drink it carefully. You'll still drink some grounds, but they are so fine it hardly matters.

Indonesians drink this type of coffee with a bucket of sugar and often condensed milk, but that's optional. I enjoy it pure, and keep buying it whenever I'm in Indo, as it's hard to find elsewhere in the world.

Comes with a built in translator and spell checker, and since access to Google translate is blocked, that's often the only alternative.

I'm using bing.com/create (free access with an office 365 account) and then use prompts such as "create a simple black & white icon with broad lines for a mobile app depicting financial management".

Modify the prompt a few times or run it a couple times in a row until I find something I like, maybe modify it a little in Photoshop, and done.

Didn't you post it this morning already? I swear I've seen the exact same content earlier.

Sure. Foreigners aren't really sanctioned though, that's more of a risk for the locals. But even then usually only if they want to get someone disappeared and don't have anything substantial against them.

Worse. They think it's useful.

Then they'll install the Linux version. People here are so indoctrinated, they like it.

That looks nice. I'll check it out if I have some time later; though my written Chinese is fairly limited. So far the Windows keyboard layout did just fine.

I live in China and this software is cancerous not just in the encryption failure, it also nestles into a computer like a trojan. Creates 2 fallback installations and will reinstall itself after removal if you reboot in between, unless you get rid of all 3 installations at once, where they are deliberately trying to obfuscate the uninstall button (triple confirmation, swapping the confirm/cancel buttons and button background colors, etc.).

It's a nasty piece of crap that come preloaded on any phone (android, at least) and Windows-PC here.

Neither of which supports Chinese, so that's useless for any actual users of Sogou.

I believe the lemmy API only shows one or the other. Would be possible to combine it on the app, but not as a native function.

Every instance is hosting the API for their own users, and unfortunately lemmy.world has plenty of outages recently.

The way Lemmy works is that when you have an account with lemmy.world and subscribe to a community hosted on lemm.ee (for example), the lemm.ee server copies the content over to lemmy.world, and you see it all "locally". Hence a lemmy.world server outage reflects what you see with your lemmy.world account. Local communities will always be shown "as local" of course, so a server outage then means it's completely offline for the time being.

A quick fix would be to sign up with a smaller instance and subscribe to the communities from there (including the ones on lemmy.world), in that case even if lemmy.world is offline, you would be able to see and interact with their cached copies on the target instance. I've made an account with infosec.pub for that purpose.

Cards is the only view that feels right.

It does, but you need to manually open the https website, they don't automatically forward your request.
