I canceled as soon as they said they were going to be cracking down, months ago. I pay for 4 screens, and on principle, I want to be allowed to use them without being nagged or scolded or banned. So if they don't want my business on those terms, there are plenty of other streaming services with just as much content I like.

Avelon is amazing. Feels like Apollo mostly. My only complaints are piddly stuff.

That is her namesake yes! We call her Zefram, Zeffie and Zef among other nicknames.

American here: when I read that in my own accent I didn’t get it, so I backed up and read the punchline in an English accent and I laughed. Funny how that works

Is it just me or does the species name sound more like a microscopic animal? That’s what I’ve always thought.

I used ChatGPT this morning to create a Firefox extension for my favorite website (to allow me to speed up audio playback as desired.) just a few minutes’ back-and-forth and it works perfectly. If you’ve got a favorite site with a UI that you r always wanted slightly tweaked, you could try making a browser extension to do that!

FYI for those confused by parent comment or the comment I’m replying to: if you use the reader mode of the in- app browser, the article is cut off quite early and there’s no indication that there’s more to be read if you read it directly.

I have it on good authority it was Dancing in the dark by Springsteen

I didn’t know about your community till I saw this post, and I’m interested. Have you considered adding a community-maintained “getting started with geocaching” doc to the sidebar? I’m not saying that’ll solve the problem immediately but I think it could help people decide to join when they’re exploring Lemmy.

Like others said, such a small percentage actuslly post. So anything that helps drive traffic up can help. From an seo perspective you’ve just got to be the most helpful resource if you want that sweet sweet traffic.

She’s competitively compensated for the quality of the work product she delivers!

Read this as 'cyberduck' at first and I was like, what's wrong with my favorite FTP client? Why do they hate it?

There’s like… no downside: all upside.

Edit: I exaggerated, of course. Below this are some downsides that individuals have experienced. But personally, my experience using Firefox on desktop for Mac has been all upside. If everybody who can just tries it out, you might be surprised at how friction-free the change is.

That’s cute! Are their personalities similar?

Thanks :)

That's just too hot! It's 101 where we are. Mini split helps!

11 years here. Deleted all my posts (not that I was a crazy prolific poster, but it still took hours and hours with the tool running).

Rod sterling. (For transparency, I clicked on this thread to reply with this answer and in doing so I did see that everyone has answered ‘Serling’ and thus suspect that I’m just remembering a more common, well-known word. But I being 36 on know his name in the retrospective and apparently misread it.)

Why do you say that? I thought that was the way everybody was recommending to delete!

Mommy said, no exceptions! 😂

Every morning I take the dog outside for her morning walk, start the coffee, make the bed, and get her fed and settled. Then I’m at my desk and I do the Wordle, NYT mini crossword and connections puzzles (and send them to the family group chat). Then I play one game of online chess, losing very badly and analyzing my mistakes afterward. Now that I’m totally awake and having my coffee, I spend time with my spiritual routine, then start answering my emails around 9 (I’m a web developer and work from home).

Little app only for the Apple Watch called Nomi that I like. Doesn’t get updated anymore but still works. It’s a couple bucks, and I’ve enjoyed it for years

I mean, I did. I never thought I would, because I use dev tools all the time and I was worried it would be a problem, but it wasn’t. I don’t miss it. Firefox is fine!

People: If you’re trying to decide whether to switch, just do it! It’s good for the internet and it didn’t even take that long to import my bookmarks, install all the same extensions, and increase the tiny tiny font size of tab names. Like, maybe twenty minutes all tallied up. Worth it!
