It makes me happy that I don't even know what that means. Well, I didn't until now.

Mine didn't either when I lived in a dorm. I got around the network block.

  1. Plug Xbox 360 into ethernet wall port
  2. Log into uni network, get internet
  3. Plug router directly into pc.
  4. Assign router same ip as Xbox
  5. Spoof router mac address to match xbox
  6. Unplug from pc
  7. Quickly swap cable in wall from Xbox cable to router cable, Indiana Jones style
  8. Internet for 1 month. Repeat monthly.

Mullvad even lets you send them an envelope with cash in it, with no identifying info other than your account number.

No script lets you individually allow js on certain sites, even specific sources. Block all by default, allow safe sites or temporarily allow other sites based on need. I started doing that this year and it hasn't been nearly as much trouble as I thought it would be.

Exactly, so use Proton :P

Hey, very cool app. One thing that could be a massive improvement is the ability to tap the thumbnails in "compact mode" to open a bigger version of the image without loading the whole post. Boost (for reddit and for lemmy) has something like this (though not as snappy as I'd like), and relay for reddit had the perfect implementation of this. It was quick and easy. You tap the thumbnail to blow the image up to the max screen width, tap again to dismiss the image. Ideally there would be no lag between when you tap and when the image is loaded, same with dismissing. (I disabled double tap in relay so the image dismissal didn't wait for a 2nd tap, making it quicker.)

Obviously this is a very nice and niche feature, so it might be outside the scope of the app. But if you find yourself itching to add some features, keep this in mind :) It would fit well with the "fast, fluid browsing" theme of the app.

I took a video to give a quick example but uploading it to lemmy.world isn't working, I don't want to share my youtube account, and I don't want to make you download a random file from a file sharing site, so you can check out this behavior in those 2 apps if you need an example.

I had to pay 4000 yesterday because I went to the hospital for a heart-related scare which turned out to be nothing (and some low potassium) after some tests. That was with insurance. Without, it would have been just over $75,000.

Edit: I stayed at the hospital overnight for 3 days and 2 nights.

You need the software running in the background. For what it's worth, the overhead is basically 0 when I use it.

Or for linux, Input Remapper (Pop OS has this by default in their repository)

Try the program "REWASD". Or for linux, Input Remapper (Pop OS has this by default in their repository)

 

I recently got a touch screen panel, 1280X800, and the screen is on 24/7 (which is fine). The only problem is it's in my peripheral vision when I'm at my desk and it by default cycles through some stock images when not in use. The image changing catches my eye easily, and it's just a little annoying. So I decided to put a single static image on it.

Does anyone here have any static image you keep on your wall-mounted displays when they aren't in use, or any ideas for such an image?

I was going to fall back on just disabling the image all together and have the actual interface showing, but that's boring.

I was thinking of something related to my home, saying like the {surname} household, or maybe a picture of my cats or something funny, I am not sure either way.

I figured some of you here might have thought about this already and might have some good suggestions.
