People don't do this? Sitting in dirty water for a period of time doesn't make me feel any cleaner.

How about a federated repository of repositories?

Try to get them to switch to Signal if you can. I helped my 70+ year old mother switch with no problems because the UI is similar to WhatsApp and Telegram so it didn't take her long to get used to it.

What am I looking at, here? It looks like a glass table or something?

Why would they put the shoes back in the ocean?

It looks really good! I immediately installed it and created an account, but upon logging in I found out that some of the advertised features (such as certain prioritisation options) don't come with the free version so I don't think I'll be able to use it right now. The app does look really good, though! Thanks for sharing!

Crisp is also a very good option for groceries as their main focus is selling products that are produced locally or in Europe.

I don't find Almdudler comparable to Mountain Dew. But what I do think is similar to Almdudler is Rivella. Though I like the taste of Almdudler a lot more.

What's the best way to self host it?

[–] Panda 8 points 1 month ago

I stopped using WhatsApp years ago. Yeah, it was slightly inconvenient because of course friends and family were using it (which was why I started using it in the first place) but I told everyone I would move to Telegram so they could contact me on there or they could keep in touch through text/email/calls. Plenty of options.

I installed Signal on my phone years ago but no one I knew used it. So I couldn't use it even though I did have it installed.

Now I'm in a similar situation with Telegram as I was with WhatsApp, except more and more of my contacts are joining Signal thanks to everything that's going down at the moment. There are, unfortunately, still a few people that seem to be out of the loop and still continue to use Telegram so it's still installed on my phone but I mainly use Signal now.

So I'm glad more and more people are discovering Signal and are now switching! Now I get to actually use it.

Actually we've been able to order from Otto in The Netherlands for years.

That actually does sound fun!

Is Kagi down? (self.kagi)
submitted 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) by Panda to c/kagi@lemmy.ml
 

For the past few hours I've been getting a "cannot complete request" error when I try to perform a search through my browser's address bar. Their status website doesn't seem to work either.

Is anyone else having this issue?

Edit: I don't know what was wrong, the Kagi website itself didn't work for me either (but other websites did), but it sounds like it did work for others. About an hour after I posted this it started working again. Thanks, everyone!

 

How do you use your labels, folders and filters to organise your ProtonMail inbox/archive?

I decided to get Proton Unlimited yesterday and I've been trying to organise my emails, but I feel like I have the tendency to accidentally use folders and labels for the same thing so I end up with similarly named labels and folders (oops!), so I'm curious to see how people here organise their mailbox.

I was thinking one folder per alias/account/website, but when I try to add filters I'm reaching that filter limit where I have to wait 24 hours. I tried the sieve filters but, although I'm a decent programmer, it doesn't feel super intuitive.

Spin Rhythm XD (self.games)
submitted 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago) by Panda to c/games@lemmy.world
 

I vaguely remember seeing this game on Steam ages ago and thinking it looked interesting, but then forgot about it. Now, during the Steam rhythm fest, it caught my eye again and I immediately bought it. And it's so, so much fun.

So first of all, if you're into rhythm games and haven't played this, I'd highly recommend it!

My question though, is if anyone else here plays it? What are your favourite songs, or do you mostly play custom songs?

I'm currently trying to get better at playing songs in Hard difficulty but tend to accidentally mix up the beats and taps. Still trying to get used to the controls, but I love it so far!

 

In Cities: Skylines 2, how do you usually organise your districts? What makes you decide an area should be a district? Roughly how big are your districts usually?

I feel like I might be overusing the districts a bit and it's getting a bit messy.

 

So I normally download updates from the Github page and it works fine. It could be because I just woke up (heh) but I can't for the life of me figure out which version of the APK release (arm64, armeabi, universal, x86, x86_64) I should install on my Android (14) phone. I tried the universal one but it says it's not compatible with the current app I have installed on my phone when I try to update it.

Could anyone advise me on this? Thank you so much!

Just started; what to expect? (self.intermittentfasting)
 

I just started IF last week as part of my weight loss journey (I'm on a high protein diet which worked very well for me before, but haven't done IF before) and decided to try IF since I heard good things about it. I'm fasting 14 hours for 4 days a week (I also have health problems, so I'm not going for the full 7 days).

I'm going for IF from Monday night until Thursday night (so basically it ends on Friday morning). I'm on my second day since I started Thursday night. On Thursday I felt pretty good, but last night was a bit of a struggle because, despite eating enough calories (and proteins) I suddenly felt rather hungry at night even though normally I don't. Maybe it's because I can't eat that I'm suddenly hungry? You know, when you can't have something you suddenly want or need it? Haha.

What can I expect? Is there anything I should watch out for? Any tips?

 

I'm trying to print some documents in grayscale / black & white but it keeps printing my documents in colour instead, even if I select grayscale in one of the drop down menus in the settings (under Color > Color Model).

Does anyone know if there is a specific setting I need to change for it to print in grayscale correctly? If it helps, I have a Canon MX420 printer.

Thanks so much for your help!
