That's actually a good simple fix which hadn't occurred to me, hopefully it helps with whatever shitty routing problems theyve got going on. I don't think there's even an IT guy employed by the school so...

Can't you just use your browser to claim them anymore?

You definitely used to be able to claim free games through a browser, I claimed a few on my phone and I've literally never had the epic launcher installed on any device.

People who are used to doing actual research and who understand the necessity of things like a peer review process understand how dangerous it is to have something that's straight up confidently wrong 20% of the time, and yet have people who treat it like the ultimate authority on things. These people have likely seen AI be stunningly stupid in fields they know about and can extrapolate from there that it's probably stunningly stupid about most things.

I mean Canada at least doesn't have a special armed paramilitary force that goes around seeking people to deport. If someone is in the country illegally and acting improperly someone will notice and inform the police but as far as I'm aware there's nobody raiding culturally diverse restaurants seeking to ruin someone's life.

I have an issue with my laptop on my school's network, which is likely an issue with the way the network is configured, because I've never had the issue on other computers or networks elsewhere, but sometimes my laptop(Linux Mint ThinkPad T490) will stay connected to the network, but say 'authentication required' and have no internet access until I reconnect. It also sometimes pops up a password box and asks me to reauthenticate to the network which I do, still using the same saved password. This gets annoying while writing tests that use browser window monitoring software. Like I said, it's probably an issue with the network but none of the windows or Mac users seem to have this issue so maybe someone has come across something similar or knows how to fix it.

Couldn't you just replace the old appimage but have the same file name?

Try restarting with a new wine prefix and install the newer vc? I think it's 2019-2025 or something.

I recommend Connect to everyone. Free, no ads at all, Canadian developer who is super active and has responded to every issue I've raised right away and usually fixed it by the next day, tons of customization options, all around the best Lemmy app I've used for a number of different reasons.

ICE is not the same thing as CBP (customs and border protection). Getting rid of ICE would not leave your border 'unprotected'. This kind of ignorant shit is exactly why you Americans are in this fucking situation.

I've pretty much seen the opposite. Windows fanboys love to come up with excuses for why they COULDNT POSSIBLY switch to Linux but most of the Linux users I've seen are constantly trying to convince people that it's NOT that intimidating and that you DON'T need to be a super genius or nerd to use it.

The size of the text too omg it's like one of those children's leappad things.

 

When entering the inbox from mid-feed on android, it seems like you can no longer swipe or use the back button to go back to where you were in the feed. Pressing the back button now does nothing, and i have to reselect the feed view in the sidebar, which resets my position in the feed. This is quite annoying when I've already scrolled past a number of posts and see that I've received a message, since i know that reading or responding to it means I'll have to reset my feed from the beginning. Love this app so much though and appreciate everything you do.

 

Since their domain issue and resurgence Ive noticed that Im not really seeing any hexbear posts on all anymore, and i honestly miss their posts. I switched to another instance while earlier and saw quite a few from hexbear, but on switching back they arent in my feed. I see that this instance is still federated with them so does anyone know why they don't seem to be showing up?

 

Hey, just wanted to say i love the app and all the customization options. I was wondering though if theres a setting to change the background colour used for the top and bottom bars for images that dont fit the full aspect ratio of the screen. As of now it seems to be using an 'average' of the most dominant colour in the image which is usually very nice, but im using a dark theme and it can be quite jarring, especially at night, when the image is say a twitter screenshot, which gives very light grey top and bottom bars. Ideally I'd like to keep the average colour background for most posts but be able to set a 'minimum' brightness that is used for bright images, but it would also be nice to be able to just set a default background color. Sorry if this is already in the settings somewhere and ive missed it. Thanks

 

Im curious if theres a way to see the modlog for an instance without leaving the app. In the webapp there's a link on the about instance page, but im not seeing that in the app.

 

So in this episode they go into a cave, and can read some sort of energy field, as well as Troi having a sense that there are lifeforms present. Geordie explains that the people must be displaced in time, but only by a few milliseconds. If that's true, how is there not overlap? Say the people are a few milliseconds ahead of the enterprise when they arrive, shouldn't they appear a few milliseconds later, as they still would have had to be 'present' during that time? I don't understand how they would be consistently invisible if time is a dimension like space that can be traveled through. Some past (or future) version of them would be present regardless of the desynchronization would they not?

Please if anyone could help me understand or shed some light on this I'd appreciate it.
