Is VR really so ubiquitous to warrant these concerns? In my opinion most of the warnings about how this technology encourages "escaping reality" apply more to things that have had an established place in society for decades, namely phones, social media and online gaming. I have two kids and a VR headset is the least of my concerns, but they could be sucked in to the non-reality of a personal phone in two seconds if I allow it.
I don't know how much of a difference it makes in terms of Gboard phoning home, but you can disable a bunch of data sharing options in the Privacy section of Gboard's settings:
I think you still have to specify the URL up to the greader.php page, maybe in your case it would be
Malvavisco in Spanish as others mentioned, but in Chile we also call some varieties "guagüitas" (little babies) for some reason
Well, you can fact check later right? If nothing else kids will learn to be bored again, which is good.
We're like monkeys in a zoo to them
People love seeing monkeys in the zoo, the closer the better! I think if we could travel to other planets to check out other life forms we would do it all the time. I don't believe aliens have come here, but if they exist and could come see us they would totally do it for the same reasons we would want to go see them. Makes sense to me!
I've always known Drop for their audio sales and products, I hope they continue to collaborate with audio brands in the future. The Sennheiser/Drop HD58x is one of my favorites, it was hard to beat for the price when I bought them.
The app will show a pop up to sign up to preload his app "Sync for Lemmy", not to sign up to an account on a Lemmy instance.
I don't know how it works under the hood, but it makes sense to me from the perspective of an instance admin: the modding decisions I make on my instance should carry over to the federated copies of my instance's communities, and vice versa.
FreshRSS - self hosted, snappy, plenty of themes, works with multiple mobile clients and has a bunch of powerful features to get RSS-like updates out of any website.
Edit: My bad, we're talking about open source Android apps
Final Fantasy VII and Chrono Cross are my absolute all time favorites. Ori and the Blind Forest is a more recent soundtrack that blew me away. The soundtrack for the Motorhead racing game is also a classic for me.
Chile here, love Argentinian insult acronyms like LPQTRMP
Ever since I have been married with kids
My days are too short for me to give a shit
I thought maybe the title had been misspelled and it was supposed to say "selflessness and trust" but nope, Linus goes into great detail about how being selfish helps open source projects. I agree with the points he's making though, great interview. This bit is so relatable:
I'll happily sit in front of the computer the whole day, and if the kids distract me when I'm in the middle of something, a certain amount of cursing might happen.
My contribution is a very practical tip for parents: When you need to carry a kid sitting on your shoulders, first pick them up and have them sit with both legs on your right shoulder. Then, with your right hand, grab the kid's right leg, and with your left hand grab the kid's left leg and lift it over your head to place it in your left shoulder. Mirror the maneuver if necessary. The result is a quick lift-sit-and-switch technique, and fewers kicks to the head.
I love this one, reminded me of a similar insult in Chilean Spanish: "Le faltan palos pal puente" (he's a few sticks short for a bridge)
The local and remote port options sound exactly like something I've needed multiple times in the past, I'll keep this saved for when it happens again. Great stuff!
In my case, sharing Netflix with family members by paying the extra fee is still cheaper than paying the full price by ourselves. We split the full price of the Netflix subscription, including the extra fee, so we end up paying less than the full subscription price. I do it mostly because some of my kids' shows are only on Netflix. We also split the Disney+ and Spotify bills, to everybody's benefit. Is that smart, since I'm saving money? Or stupid because I'm not helping some armchair crusade against big bad Disney/Netflix?
This one is probably very specific but Utada Hikaru has one that I love, where towards the end of certain songs she sings the chrous, and then keeps the same melody going multiple times but with different lyrics. It's like she extends the feeling and rhythm of the chorus but keeps it interesting by using different lyrics the whole time. Some examples: Goodbye Happiness, Making Love, About Me, LETTERS, Sakura DROPS.
I recommend NSD or Knot for strictly authoritative servers. BIND is great too, but it is built to do both authoritative and caching DNS which makes it a bit too "big" for the task of serving only authoritative DNS data. You can definitely configure BIND to only serve authoritative data though.
I can't comment on running from a container, I've always worked with NSD/Knot/BIND building directly from source.
I've been using FocusReader for a while now to sync with my self hosted RSS provider (FreshRSS), works great and is under active development.

Using .site-content container clearfix
didn't work because those are actually three separate CSS classes, so you'd have to use only one - for example .site-content
. However, it looks like .site-content
is too big, as it includes the website's sidebar as well. You may already know this but in Firefox and Chrome you can right click anywhere on the website and use the Inspect option to look at the source, and clicking on a section of the source highlights the corresponding section of the website and this will help you find exactly the CSS class you're looking for. I did this on a couple articles from Humble Bundle and found a couple of options:
.post
: This includes only the content of the post, excluding the title and the image..site-main
: This includes the title, author, image and the content.
Another useful tool in FreshRSS I forgot to mention is "CSS selector of the elements to remove". You can use it to remove certain section from the full article, I'd recommend removing .sharedaddy
and .entry-footer
(the sharing links at the end of the article), and also .entry-header
if you use .site-main
as the CSS selector for the full article (.entry-header
is the title of the article, but FreshRSS already fetches it from the RSS feed so you don't need it in the body of the article as well). You can remove multiple sections by using a comma-separated list of CSS classes to remove:
.entry-header, .sharedaddy, .entry-footer
Very nice! I'm self hosting Photon right now and it couldn't be easier. Keep up the great work!
I agree with everything you're saying. I was more answering to the comment above calling people stupid without any sort of context for why one could possibly choose to pay for these services.
You have a lot of recommendations already but I'd like to add two of my favorites: Courtney Barnett and Alvvays!
I was going to say Digital Illusions but for Motorhead, the racing game. The OST for that game has been in my music rotation for decades and it's still in my top 3 of all time.
I don't disagree but I can prefer 30 fps right? I never said 30 fps is objectively better, it's just a preference. I'm not trying to be a contrarian, I'm just surprised it's so controversial to have this opinion.
The only game in my backlog is the Final Fantasy VII Remake and my strategy for clearing my backlog is "when my kids are sufficiently independent". Right now that is not even a little bit a possibility.
It can be done directly in FreshRSS and I've done it successfully with a few websites, though the process is fairly involved. Here's a starting point, from the FreshRSS documentation:
https://freshrss.github.io/FreshRSS/en/users/11_website_scraping.html
This blog post (also linked in the FreshRSS docs above) proved extremely useful as an example on how to get started:

Good luck!
I think the apps currently in development will only get better with time, but currently the web app is my favorite way to browse Lemmy.
Kim's Caravan by Courtney Barnett is one of my favorites.
Turning it on by default would be a massive disservice to the work that domain registries and registrars have been doing to allow Unicode to be used in domain names. In Spanish speaking countries the ñ character is pretty ubiquitous for example, and the workaround of replacing it with an n creates many problems like misdirected web traffic and typos in email addresses. Unicode in URLs and domain names is a feature, abuse should be attacked by means other than disabling it.
I don't qualify as a "younger user of Lemmy" but I love games like Street Fighter and Mortal Kombat. I suck at all of them, except for Killer Instinct but I'm only kinda good with Combo.
As if these two needed their egos stroked even more. I'll never understand why billionaires need so much attention, and why on earth we give it to them.
No problem! FreshRSS really is amazing so I'm happy to help and spread the love.
Before you go reading all that, out of curiosity I looked around the RuneScape site and found the News RSS feed here:
https://secure.runescape.com/m=news/latest_news.rss
That feed contains only titles, thumbnails and a very small preview of each article. However, with FreshRSS you don't need to do scraping/crawling at all to get full articles from limited RSS feeds like this one. Here's what you do:
.c-news-article__content
in that text box. You can click on the button next to the text box to preview the full article that FreshRSS will retrieve.That should do it. The CSS selector essentially tells FreshRSS which section of the full article's HTML/CSS is the body of the article, which FreshRSS then uses to populate the body of the RSS feed.
Looks great! I'll also chime in that the Play Store website tells me it's not available for any of my devices, and the Play Store app says it's not available in my country (Chile).
Looks more "cinematic" to me, if that makes sense.
In Chile, not really an insult but rather a lament over how dumb people are sometimes:
"Si los weones volaran, pasaría nublado" (If dumb people could fly it would always be cloudy)
