Why would they work well? Their business model doesn’t incentivize dating apps to work well. They sell subscriptions so they’d rather their users stay perpetually single and become increasingly desperate.

It’s a great tool but note that by default it upgrades EVERYTHING, up to and including production cloud environments if you are connected to any.

The vitriol the “Clean Code” cult has against comments is unbelievable…

I still have my old games case. I sometimes browse through it just for the nostalgia. Even just looking at the discs brings memories.

I think it’s the difference between the call ending suddenly (hang up) and the call not responding for several seconds before dropping (lost connection).

The Kestrel Cruiser from FTL. Even though it’s not even the coolest ship in the game, The Kestrel is still the most nostalgic for me.

It brings me back to when I first played FTL a decade ago. I was a kid back then and loved the game so much, I even built and painted a cardboard Kestrel model.

The other thing is just how much I hate Windows Update. I can tolerate most parts of Windows, but WU is objectively terrible. It’s incredibly slow, requires multiple restarts (sometimes forced!) amd sometimes fails with random errors that are impossible to troubleshoot.

It goes without saying that most Linux package managers work incredibly well in comparison.

It’s so nice to be excited about my OS again. I remember as a kid, I used to be really excited about Windows updates. People were cynical about Microsoft even back then, but I remained loyal to Windows for years.

Only last year did I finally move to Linux as my OS (although I still use Windows for gaming). Since then every following Linux news is always exciting. New versions of distros, desktop environments and software always bring interesting improvements.

Meanwhile on the Windows side, most noticeable updates just bring more ads, tracking, forced Edge recommendations and forced logins. Ironically the last Windows feature I remember being genuinely excited for was WSL 2.

The word instance is fine, and makes sense if you think about it for five seconds.

The feature that Liftoff has is automatic redirects. So for example if I am lemmy.one user and want to subscribe to !memes@lemmy.ml, clicking the Subscribe button on the Liftoff app will offer to redirect me to lemmy.one/c/memes@lemmy.ml. On the web interface, you would have to manually go to that domain.

Also all the links in my comment automatically open in the Liftoff app.

At least on Liftoff it’s incredibly easy.

Forced me to explain my ASD to the class. This was after I made a lot of progress in my early childhood; by the time I got to highschool I no longer thought my former ASD diagnosis defined who I am, and I preferred to keep it to myself. I certainly didn’t want people to think of me differently because of it, but my teacher thought otherwise.

Better than OsmAnd?

Kindle devices are nice but not at all FOSS, and not very open either. Although you can sideload books, EPUB files are still not directly supported, you have to convert them. Converting is easy with Calibre but it’s still a hassle that is not needed on any other ereader.

There’s a vibrant jailbreak community on MobileRead, however Amazon keeps blocking jailbreaks.

After my Kindle died I got a Kobo instead. Costs about the same as Kindle (maybe slightly more?). Still not fully open, but supports EPUB and its MobileRead community is just as vibrant (and Kobo doesn’t block you from doing this).

There are many ereaders than run Android.
