Yeah I don't know about that, it rolled out globally a month later.

To be fair a lot of people have it on TestFlight because originally that was the only way to get it.

Except imessage and facetime are end-to-end encrypted in China.

I’d say it’s mostly garbage. It introduces annoying pop-ups. You can turn them off but it’s grating.

E.g. every time you connect to a new screen it asks to go into presentation mode.

I’d say anything parallels toolbox can do, I can find an open source tool which can do it better. Sort of a jack of all trades, master of none.

Though I could see it being useful for a non-power user that is afraid of installing software.

While I’ve never used it personally I’ve heard good things about cloudflare tunnel.

Running early and decreasing speed. Trying to get out there by 6 every day.

That's cool, I've been passively wanting a brew/apt alternative for windows for years. I had no idea Microsoft made one.

E.g. you’re the mod of the vacuum cleaner subreddit. A business approaches you offering payment to recommend their vacuum in the wiki of the sub.

On Reddit, I think a lot of them monetize it. But generally speaking it’s a rewarding thing to feel like you’re building something greater than yourself.

I run a 3070 with the gigabyte G34WQC (21:9 1440p). The 3070 is basically the same card as the 3060 ti.

I would say the major limitation is VRAM. The card has enough horsepower to comfortably run most games. With DLSS I expect >100 fps.

However, it’s definitely showing its age. Current consoles have effectively 12 gb of VRAM so the 8 gb is sort of teetering on the edge. If it was a 16 gb card it would be fine for years to come.

If all you want is no stuttering, it will be great. I never see below 80 in demanding games. However, driving a full 144 fps will be an issue.

It makes it so that if you visit another instance using their URL, it will redirect you to your home version’s federated link.

E.g. if your home server is Lemmy.world, let’s say you find a link to Lemmy on another website but it’s a link to Lemmy.ml. If you click the link, you won’t be signed in.

So like:

https://lemmy.ml/c/memes would redirect to https://lemmy.world/c/[email protected]

This way you can seamlessly use Lemmy.

Though I’m not familiar with this particular script. Scripts should be verified for security before installation.

In some cases we're talking about people making $2.13 an hour in a country where you're easily paying $1,000 a month or even more for a studio apartment. I'd say if you don't tip you're the bad guy.

This type of change isn't going to come from people just deciding that waitstaff should starve and refusing to tip. If anything it will come from unionization of waitstaff or from legislation.

There's nothing inherently wrong with windscribe but I don't trust any company that offers a cheap lifetime plan for something that requires so much upkeep.

They don't advertise it, just message support from your .edu email and tell them your username. They'll apply it and let you use the STUDENT promo code. It's 50% off the year plan so $5 a month.

Apple wallet

Basically 3 good choices

ProtonVPN AirVPN IVPN

Proton has a 50% off student discount bringing the price down to $5 a month for all proton services.

IVPN is probably the best but most expensive.

I’d say past security breaches are enough reason to stay away.

Memmy on iOS is very much like Apollo. A bit buggy but a great start.

Mlem really didn’t satisfy me.

In the past, Reddit alternatives pretty much existed only for the least savory people (i.e. nazis)

Now Reddit has caused an exodus of good users, a bit different.

The bidet has a hot air dryer. Truly living in the future.
