I'll add that to the watchlist, thanks!

Huh, thanks for the warning as I've been wanting to try Betterbird as of late. I take it that the other providers you mentioned all support IMAP, right? Also never heard of CoMaps, thanks.

OSM instead of GMaps

I couldn't tolerate how it works at all, especially with American addresses. How do you do it?

not using gmail

What did you move to?

Did a stalker lead you to quit or something?

I've been crawling through Star Trek: The Next Generation on P+. Go old-school and you'll avoid all this!

Hmm, I actually don't know and was just saying that to be safe, haha! So it can circumvent DRM?!

[–] Flagstaff@programming.dev 4 points 1 day ago

It's sometimes better because I myself may not even like the actual gameplay (such as long grinds, which you can skip over in a video if it's not a theatrical cut to begin with), but otherwise wanna see the story.

Was your wife not your friend before, or did you have an arranged marriage?

No friends

Is this healthy?

Why did you break up and who dumped who?

Someone on Reddit said it's DRM-free, too, and even launches with all the DLC, so it can be played via the Heroic Games Launcher.

That doesn't sound like someone anyone would want to be with until that behavior improves. It doesn't have to be abuse to be unstable and/or unsustainable. Continual rudeness has no place in a long-term/lifelong relationship, right?

 

It seems impossible. This is as far as I am in one such puzzle. (Simom Tatham's Towers)

 

My current script successfully deletes the first character in a string, unless that character is a newline (`n). Even trying to put m in front of (?) to attempt to make it multiline changes nothing:

Contents := RegExReplace(Contents, '(?)^.{0,1}')

Suppose the variable Contents is:

123
456

It'll delete 1, then 2, then 3 (if you call it 3 times), but then it will never make it past the line break and get stuck and won't reach 456. Any help would be appreciated! I'm a Regex newb, but I'm not glued to Regex by any means and would be happy to use any other function to be able to do this. I'm just hopefully trying to do it all in one line, though I will use two lines if it comes down to it.

 

For example, I just tried linking https://store.steampowered.com/franchise/kingdom and wanted to delete the tracker. (Edit: lol, somehow Lemmy or Summit auto-deleted it upon my submission; interesting. Anyway, pretend there was a ? and garbage after the word kingdom there.)

  1. When commenting, tap the URL insertion button
  2. Tap the clipboard icon

Expected result: text caret is at the end of the URL to make adjustments

Current result: text caret is still at the front

Also, it'd be cool, now that I think about it, to dynamically expand that tiny URL field to multi-line to see the whole thing at once instead to having to pan—and maybe the URL link text field, too.

Thanks!

 

I can't seem to find any such section.

 
  1. Search "summit"
  2. Filter for communities
  3. See that it gets sorted by your post-sorting method when you instead want Top of All Time, so sort for that manually
  4. Go here to !summit@lemmy.world
  5. Press the back button

Expected result: the search results should show what they were just showing a moment ago

Current result: the search results revert to whatever your account's default sorting method is

Way to make this a non-issue: add a separate sorting method when searching for communities versus other types of content

Thanks!

 

This appears to be the first post about it in the Lemmiverse (for this instance), so... here we go!

A frequent activity that my closest friend group likes to do is spectate on single-player games played by one person via screen-sharing (and we're mostly introverted so no Twitch for us lol; plus, that's Amazon's playground anyway). This is where Discord unfortunately reigns supreme: its screen-sharing is somehow absolutely fantastic and near-flawless.

I recently learned that Matrix has screen-sharing through this Discord age-verification article, which may be enough to finally make the push for my friends to consider Matrix; how is it in comparison? Does anyone here very frequently use it?

 

I'm part of programming.dev and I feel like starting a /c/volumeeating (to mirror /r/volumeeating wouldn't really make sense there, haha.

 

I've had no ISP-provided Internet access since Feb. 2023 or so and, while it's been a pain at times, I still haven't caved into returning to the evil monopoly that is Spectrum, so far, and probably won't for as long as I can't land a remote job. ~~ArrowDL, while not perfect, has been pretty good at download management for the most part in conjunction with mobile data-hotspotting.~~ Update: I'm now using AB Download Manager to mitigate download cancellations at the throttled speed.

 

When it comes to screenshooting ("screenshotting?"), I've never seen any tool even as remotely as capable as Summit; I think Thunder had some sort of system that builds it, but Summit appears to actually calculate the screen coordinates of content that displays on your device.

I never actually thought to press the button until now when I just tried it out of curiosity. Unbelievable!

 

For example, can FileAppend() be set to create something like %COMPUTERNAME%test.txt? I have no idea of what the code for this would be like, if so.

 

Can anyone help me figure this out?

I thought it was totally absent, which is why I went to ToolsCustomize and looked for it, but once I found where it would normally be put, it was apparently already checked! Yet I don't see it... I have no idea of what to do.

And no, it's not in the drop-down arrow by the "U," which is only more customization of the underline.
