totally understood and differences in frameworks, features, etc make a difference. however there are currently maintained android interval timer apps that are much smaller (all fdroid links)...

TimeR Machine - 4.85MiB

Interval Timer (privacy friendly build) - 7.89MiB

I have no apple to apple (heh!) comparisons, but these seem similar.

edit: if a simple app extends past 15MiB, it gets a serious glare from me. even a reasonably complex app like BareSIP (audio codec only build) is only 22.69 MiB

I am not familiar with iOS package binary sizes, but 52.4 megs for such a "simple" app seems a tad excessive and red-flaggy. lots of dependencies to pull along with it, huh?

well... always nice to see more post diversity directly on lemmy.ml - upvoted.

I have sparred rounds with quality female muay thai fighters and "throw like a girl" takes on a very different meaning.

pretty impressive "fuck you. my house." right there.

clean cuts - thanks for the tldr.

well, peeps. its been a "fun"(for the least charitable definition of the word) ride.

naked mafia in the wh with really expensive toys to use against its foreign mafia peers never really sounded like a fun time but, hey... here we are. I mean, executing economic hit jobs on europe (the latest one is ballsy) and birthing a trump lead neo-axis vs whatever is left of the world. impressive shot.

I dunno, will there be a flash of intellectual and emotional reflection just before the state round exits the front - or perhaps just the flash and an afterwind.

I think I'll go hug some people more.

exact same situation, my friend.

if you are looking for a caloric deficit (fat loss with minimal muscle loss or even some reasonable muscle gain with the test) then absolutely. ON is one of the standard go to protein sources. I have been using IsoPure whey isolate over the past few years and find its as good as or better than others. either option is good.

some may say that you cannot build on a caloric defict - and I call BS on that. if you have fat stores and you can absolutely build while catabolic and using 90 - 120 grams of protein daily to take advantage of anabolic periods. eat healthy, whole food as often as you can, but lean protein supplements like whey can keep you burning fat and building muscle.

one one other thing... dont overthink it. 50+ with test and your body will recover and grow like whe you were younger - even in a caloric deficit. 12 to 24 months later and you may be shocked at how ripped an old body can get.

p.s. test after 50 (or if you have natural deficiencies) is absolutely valid and useful for quality of life. younger or with normal test levels...? well then you better understand how test supplementation can (and will) screw you over beforehand. talk with a medical professional.

edit: I have used monohydrate and HCL. unless the HCL prices have dropped, I don't think its worth it. if you dont mind the monohydrate grit, its cheap as hell and effective. just be safe - test and creatine can make you feel as though you can lift more than you should. old men and joint injuries or serious muscle tears are generally incompatible :-)

forearm position in that capture is about half an inch away from "crush the trachea" compliance and a mile away from "control the head, neck and blood supply" compliance. this is battery with intent to cause severe bodily harm.

as OP indicates, its a rough read - but worth your time and sharing. thanks OP.

i would have guessed a null modem adaptor, cuz - why the hell not! but... assuming the USB to serial is a typical DTE (M) then the 9pin to 25pin would likely be (F) to (M), but the potato markings on the mystery adaptor seem to suggest M/M... so... 🤷‍♂️

your breakout box suggestion is a reasonable one.

 

have enjoyed this quite a bit. its funny, science-y and a great downtime listen with a nice hhgttg feel. production will hopefully continue with a little more attention.

I have noticed recently (perhaps within the last 6-12 months?) that I can hit many major sites via Tor with JavaScript off. there are a few that reject Tor connections or render illegibly - but, for many mainstream sites, things are actually pretty reasonable. fingerprinting and personal threat models aside, this seems like a positive move and feels different from e.g. 2 years ago.

am I slowly going insane? has anyone else noticed this? tested over time via orbot and classic Tor nodes with various hardened and non-hardened browsers and DNS resolvers.

 

super tight fit and I had to shear off a tiny tab on the wiper blade to complete the install, however its all good and solid.

wife gave me the "damn, you're useful" smile. good times.

just updated to the v0.0.35 f-droid build and jerboa started to consistently crash at seemingly random times. likewise, I would get web UI error notifications while using the web frontend.

did a little testing and noticed that it may be related to the "show avatars" setting being enabled.

turning "show avatars" off and saving the settings seems to have eliminated the issues on both web and app.

will continue to test and update the post if needed. any others able to confirm or refute this particular issue might be helpful.

edit: there are still crashes related to editing a post, but crashes while scrolling through posts and comments seem to be much reduced. any feedback is welcome.

edit2: further poking suggests the underlying cause may be jerboa not handling server response timeouts well. turning off avatars may reduce the number of API calls and therefore the number of potentially mishandled timeouts. crash frequency is likely variable as a result of variable server load. if others also experience reduced crash frequency with avatars turned off then I can either create a github issue or add info to an existing one.

 

sorry about the quality - was stopped (safety first) but dealing with poor picture taking conditions.

 

Just checked the Jerboa git and...

Had to document it for posterity.

 

I know that many of us already know this, but it should repeated as often as needed.

we are the network -- the network is us.

social is nothing without the interactions that we create. reddit was just a place; a place that, because of a centralized power dynamic, abused us all.

we have are now at a cultural juncture, an opportunity to bring back what each of us knows to be true. our interactions do not need to capitalized, marketed and sold.

we are not products. we are the network.

please, find communities that even mildly interest you or catch you eye, join them and comment on posts.

just had this conversatin with the wife and she is joining Lemmy to start her own federated social journey.

pretty please... we need a samwise "share the load" meme for Lemmy instances, and it should be pinned far and wide.

mememasters... do your thing.
