It’s been the case ever since I started using Android (and modded APKs such as old versions of apps re-signed to not update) in about 2011.
Some of the root apps back then such as Titanium Backup had features to “unhook” an app so it wouldn’t appear as installed in the store, but my experience was that it never lasted long enough to be worth doing.
That has just always been the case as long as the app in both stores uses the same package string. (Like org.blitzortung.android.app or org.videolan.vlc)
Those link to communities, not specific posts.
I really wish the Lemmy devs had come up with a portable post URL format. Maybe something like
https://*any-instance*/post/*number*@*source-instance*
Then the clients could handle it like the ! links for communities and also just rewrite links to be for the currently logged-in instance.
The unfortunate answer is that it knows through long forgotten experience… Anything a toddler sees goes in the mouth.
!lemmy_support@lemmy.ml
And this Matrix chat.
Those are from the sidebar of lemmy.ml which is the instance run by the Lemmy devs.
I can’t usually taste differences in brand like that anyway, so whatever is cheaper.
That version is probably too old and will complain
(Only partly /s)
Ok. I’m ootl. Please explain?
I’m really disappointed that even the larger model still only gets “up to 40” hours of battery. That’s not even two days, and that’s if lucky.
I like charging my current watch only to 80%, then the next day it’s at 50%. If I miss a day it’s still fine.
It’s a well taken picture of a barbaric subject. I’m not going to vote either way.
Yeah, I don’t smoke or drink alcohol either.
I’d love to say that my choices are entirely because of health, financial, or even moral reasons, but honestly, my parents didn’t, and that’s likely the major reason I don’t. I might still avoid it though because I do feel strongly about the health and money stuff… But that’s somewhat negated when I acknowledge that my drug of choice is sugar, and it might eventually kill me.
I am what is now called millennial, but the term didn’t exist when I was growing up.
The church my mom took me to as a kid usually had the option to take a very small (single sip) cup of grape juice instead of the same size small cup of wine during the communion part of the service.
But sometimes on rare occasions I went to a service outside the church proper (for example, one was to my uncle’s house where my grandmother was dying of cancer) and usually for that kind of thing they only brought the wine, so I had to take some.
I was mostly joking about it putting me off religion (plenty of other factors there). But it really did taste extremely nasty, and every time I’ve tried alcohol since then reminds me of it, so it might really be part of why I don’t like alcohol.
Communion wine on an occasion that the grape juice wasn’t available.
I think it may have been part of what put me off of both alcohol and religion.
Very cool!
Similar to one of the neatest things I ever saw: a small drop of mercury under a microscope. What I saw was the room around me, like one of those round wall corner security mirrors.
I could imagine it being a scene in an action movie - the hero hides in a lab among the scientists, grabs a lab coat, and a little mercury, and sets up at a microscope. We see their view of the room when the villains sneak in and the hero, knowing exactly where they are, suddenly attacks or something.
Ah, sorry I hadn’t even considered that it would be different in other places (just times) - I’m in the US, and those flat ones were present here at least as late as the 1980s and likely 1990s.
Cable Internet is very common in the US, in fact the most common kind. (2nd is DSL) So the F connectors (didn’t know that name) are everywhere. Also still used for actual antenna connections.
I am not sure if I have ever seen a Belling-Lee, but RCA used to be extremely common here until HDMI took over that role. (In fact RCA is what is on the switch box above to connect to the ‘computer’)
Yes, it’s for an old game console or computer.
There were two common ways to connect to the TV, and this box supports both: Coaxial (still around of course) and that flat ribbon cable, which ends in two separate U shaped clips. The screws on the bottom are for the clips on the ribbon cable from the physical antenna likely mounted on the roof.
Some of them are definitely more descriptive than others.
Lemmy’s isn’t great, but at least it’s not a generic chat box or radio waves, or a graph (nodes and lines)
