Civil Rights Defenders launches Off.guard - the first tool created to share vital information when internet shuts down in c/technology@beehaw.org
[–] withersailor@aussie.zone 4 points 2 years ago

Took a long time following links to find:

In order for off.guard to work properly make sure to activate push-notifications for this website in chrome settings and click activate notifications below. Then off.guard will take care of the rest.

So it's using net access to push info out.

I gave up finding more. Lots of marketing buzz words and little technical details.

Reddit alternative? Google introduces Perspectives, a search feed with results from humans in c/technology@beehaw.org

This will be saving you typing in +reddit +stackspace on searches. Still the same results.

Wish they'd include a -pinterest option.

What is the easiest way to convert physical book to digital? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml
[–] withersailor@aussie.zone 8 points 2 years ago

First you need to get images of them. Better quality images make the ocr step better. Then image to text.

Make a frame to hold the camera at the right height above the page. Good lighting.

It's not quick unless you have the hardware.

Another option is to send the book to a place that will scan it for you. Google for options.

What do you use for a domain registrar? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

Now out of the blue, Google Domains is shutting down and Squarespace is buying all customer accounts, barely a year after the product exited beta.

So Google domains becomes square space domains.

In your profile there is an option for bots.

Show bot accounts

Try toggling that. It seems to be on by default.

Ah, well, that is because it is a money burning machine.

I need to survive for 3 days without pooping, and eating as little as possible. I can pee, but not very often. It can't take up too much space. What food do I pack? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml
Jerboa appreciation in c/jerboa@lemmy.ml

I had that, but it crashed a lot. Logged out, and wasn't able to log back in because of the version message. Downgrading didn't work either. It would login and crash. Using the web interface until the server updates.

Not good timing on the release of Jerboa and server version. Not doing version 0.18 released yet.

Edit: The Admin God upgraded the server and 0.35 works sweet now!
