Droid-ify is an F-droid frontend, that is also in F-droids repo as an installable app so it’s safe, in this case one of the F-droid repos OP has is actually malicious and is installing a modified version of Signal, the package name is wrong org.thoughtcrimes.securesms, it should be thoughtcrime without the S.

I think Play Protect is intrusive, but this time it actually tried to protect OP from a malicious Signal clone.

I run mine specifically so I can spend an hour trying to focus on a single fanblade to see if I can keep track of it

I don’t have it but I’ve seen admin/dev comments on this, with 1.0 release they plan to add offline singleplayer, and currently online is required on character select/launch, but losing internet connection during play will not kick you out or interrupt it.

I’m keeping my eye on it and will probably pick it up when offline singleplayer is added, but that being included is the deciding factor on if I’ll get it or not myself, since it’s just a promise for now and those can be broken.

Edit: apparently its already added according to other replies

There’s actually a video of it too that a lot of people haven’t seen (Video visuals are SFW, though there is gunfire sounds in the distance in the second half). The image alone misses a lot of what the guy did, he even climbed on top of the tank.

Just for some extra clarification as not everyone will read the article (not meant rudely), this is $100k to both Godot and FNA each, for a total of $200k, and $1k monthly to them both as well, for a total of $2k per month.

Ah, I didn’t know it was all at once, yeah sounds more like what you said in the other comment about Hetzner or providers pruning customers then.

Could this be due to the .ml and a few other domains thing again? The issuer is gradually pulling all of the free domains from people, while leaving the paid users active until their term is up.

I think if the ability to buy something (from the provider, not ebay/secondhand or whatever) on a valid platform, at a reasonable price, without any BS (ex: bad anticheat/the cracked version provide a better service/etc), and if you can genuinely afford it, then it’s better to just buy the thing. I also believe in supporting indie companies and solo devs, they usually provide fair access anyway but if I can’t get something from them I just go without.

Outside of that, fair game in my opinion. If the seller doesn’t provide fair access to something, they’re basically asking for it.

If someone just doesn’t want to pay, fair game to them as well even if I’m not a fan of that. My views are just what I hold myself to, not what’s right or wrong for everyone.

One for people in the US:

You aren’t taxed at the higher rate for all of your income when you get a raise that puts you in a higher tax bracket, only the part that is in the range of that bracket specifically. The rest of your income below the bracket is taxed the same as before.

I’ve seen a lot of people decline promotions and raises over this, and bosses are very happy to let you continue thinking that’s how it works.

Not sure if that counts as not common knowledge, but a lot of people I know didn’t know it before.

My favorite was Infinity/Eternity for a while, but I tried out Jerboa and it kinda just stuck for me, I really like it

Poll results are pretty interesting so far too

I’ve been thinking the same thing, I stick near stable releases of distros mostly because of both breakage and I don’t like just having hundreds of updates every week, this feels like a good in-between that gets me everything I want. I don’t need the latest and greatest days or hours after release, but I certainly don’t want to be years behind either.

It’s a bug with the Lemmy version Beehaw is on right now, Beehaw team’s looking into it. It affects all apps sadly, I added a shortcut to the browser version for now until it’s fixed

Not a bad idea really, if you update tons of stuff without rebooting if you have it disabled sometimes weird stuff can happen, but its not very common and usually not very bad at all. I’d leave it on if you want that extra little bit of stability, but if its just a regular every day use computer I think either way is fine.

It’s because it has offline updates enabled in Discover settings, its not a distro thing rather that Gnome and KDE have that in their software centers as a setting, and Fedora enables it by default, but it can be disabled.

It’s to make your system more stable because no packages get moved or updated during a running system causing unexpected behavior, and you also don’t have to reboot when it tells you, it’s more just a reminder that updates are waiting to be applied when you do, they could really word that better.

Yep! I played it years ago but it’s been on my mind for some reason, tempted me enough to pick it up again

I got No Man’s Sky (for some reason seeing Starfield stuff made me want to play that again, haven’t played it since launch on console) and Monster Hunter World again, really just old games I used to have on console and have been really tempted to play again since I found them on good sales

If gesture typing is the same thing as glide/swipe (I don’t really know what the feature is called) then they have this one linked on their page https://github.com/erkserkserks/openboard/tree/master/app/src/main/jniLibs

It says they can’t bundle it with the app because they can’t find any open source ones, so the library linked isn’t FOSS I think and made by Google but it should still work if you don’t mind that.

I barely used Reddit and just lurked occasionally, but I dropped Reddit and went back to forums + Lemmy.

I tried to join Lemmy a few years back too but I didn’t stick around long, this time it did stick. Since I tried Lemmy before for a month or two back then it was really easy to just switch back.

It looks like they plan to add it on F-droid sometime, not sure if it will reach gplay though. They originally said no to releasing anywhere but Github but F-Droid is on their roadmap now it seems after a rename and a new icon.

Going good! Got a few new games, been feeling a bit blah but am getting over that gradually. Been cutting my social media usage a bit, I deleted my microblogging fediverse account and pretty much just have Lemmy now which still eats up a lot of my time but still a huge improvement since I’m not spending nearly as much time online anymore as I was, it was getting to be a bit too much.

Edit: Also just today, I decided to drop my Japanese studying that I’ve been doing for a few years and fully focus on Castilian Spanish that I’ve been learning on the side instead. Japanese was getting to be way too much of a workload and timesink for me. Hoping this helps get rid of some stress.
