Palestinian philosopher and writer Edward Said was also famously in favor of a one-state solution which granted equal rights to Palestinians.

I think that is honestly the only way forward, but feel like it will take extended intervention by a foreign government or international organization to enforce. And I am guessing that really means extended at this point.

Firewall issue perhaps?

I have some links fail to load while I'm at work unless I use a VPN. Should do all browsing at work from VPN, to be honest.

I haven't binged a show in a long time, but really the only times I ever did were when I was trying to catch up to something ongoing.

That being said, I doubt I even could if I wanted to these days. I just don't feel like I have the time that I used to.

The trend of some shows releasing episodes in blocks has been nice. I can divide episodes up during the week, or if I find myself with a bit of time, watch 2 or 3 in one go. No more feeling like I need to catch up immediately to avoid spoilers.

Ahh okay, I think I get what you're getting at. It's like how if you dry off after a shower, your towel is damp and not wet because you're just looking at saturation.

I'd be surprised if other languages call the air "wet" because that's an English word. In Chinese, we'd call humidity 湿度 which means "degree of wet".

But then what is humidity if not a measurement of how wet the air is?

If air with 0% humidity can be called dry, then air with humidity can be called wet.

Language isn't perfect and it's often contextual. If someone wants to describe a property of water based on a newer usage in physics, maybe choose a newer word.

I mean I'd say that counts as wet.

Weird, tried it again just now and it worked just fine.

Did the article get pulled? Just links to the Science category of Ars Technica for me.

 

Woke up this morning to find that Firefox Nightly has finally removed the separate navigation bar on mobile, apparently due to an overwhelmingly negative user response. But it was a feature I really enjoyed using, being the closest non-Chromium setup I could find similar to Samsung Internet, and would like to re-enable if possible.

Does anyone know if there are any extensions or other add-ons for FF mobile which enable any sort of nav bar layout or similar? Or is my only recourse to grab the previous version of the APK and stay on that until I can find a better alternative?

Example screenshots included if anyone is not sure what I am describing.

A while ago, Sync contained a bug wherein swiping a post closed would display only a black background until the post closed fully, after which the feed would display as normal.

The behavior stopped for me when upgrading to Android 14/One UI 6.1, but is now recurring for me again on Android 15/One UI 7.0.

I didn't post before I was forced to leave the Blahaj 196 so I hope this is enough to make me not a dirty rule breaker.

I was able to comment in these threads from my PC via the Alexandrite frontend, but attempting to view those comments via Sync displays "Could not load post" with an option to Retry, which does not succeed.

Post 1 appears visible when opening the community, but opening the post displays the same error. Post 2 (the sh.itjust.works link which is posted on a lemmy.world community) the post does not appear in the community at all in Sync.

Confirmed that these communities/users are not blocked on my account, and no filters set within the app should apply to these posts either.

Lot of helpful advice in a beautifully formatted checklist. Don't forget to make a copy if you want to use this for yourself!

 

Aorzia has gotten a bit stale lately, hasn't it?

 

When Samsung last updated One UI several months ago, myself and many other Samsung users (and Pixel users on Android 14 as well, judging by the replies) encountered a bug where swiping posts closed showed only a black background until fully closed, after which the content one would expect to see would appear.

Last night, One UI updated to 6.1 on my device, and when I used Sync this morning, I noticed that the black background bug is no longer happening.

!Unfortunately I now need to re-learn my navigation gestures because Samsung apparently thinks it's fine to force people to completely re-learn how they navigate their phone overnight...!<

Seen on a comment today, this user with an Arabic username, written right to left, is rendered in between the points value and label text in Sync, rather than to the left of the value as expected.
