Yep, I’ve seen half of those as well. Bloodhounds is good but it falls off a cliff on the last 2 episodes, sadly. You should still finish it though, just to conclude the story.

My favorite and the longest I’ve used was Antergos until they stopped maintaining it. At the time, it was the most popular Arch-with-an-installer distro. Before that, I was a fan of Peppermint OS simply because it was a beautiful looking distro. I’m currently running Mint because I don’t have time to maintain an OS and I just want something that works. It’s pretty good I’d say.

I thought this was gonna be about his fratboy antics when he was younger. That aside, maybe he just needs that one leading man role that will push him to mainstream stardom. That or maybe he's a character actor stuck in a leading man's body. Actors like Colin Farrell and Ryan Gosling are at their best as character actors instead of playing dashing leading men.

I imagine one of the prosecutors touches Trump's forehead for a few seconds, then says: "It's afraid!"

Amidst the flood of Korean tv shows on netflix, there are some pretty good ones. And no, I’m not talking about Squid Game. If you like drama thrillers, I can recommend:
Beyond Evil
Extra Curricular
D.P.
Korean shows are generally longer and have more episodes, so it takes a little getting used to if you aren’t. And as much as possible, watch with subs, not dub.

They were probably replying to you on mastodon hence the @.

It’s basically forum discussion vs microblogging, and they are different types of social media. I myself prefer a forum type format because the focus of discussion is on a topic and doesn’t need my identity to be involved in. It’s also hard to maintain a conversation on a microblogging format when many people are replying to each other at the same time, unlike a forum where there are nested threads. It’s the reason I never got into twitter.
I did try mastodon because it was on the fediverse, but stopped posting after 2 weeks because I couldn’t think of anything interesting to post and it was hard to follow conversations with other people. It was also weird knowing there were people "following" me and will see everything I post.

I felt the third act dragged on a bit too long, but otherwise the movie was fun!

Tilda, because I like how I can drop it down my screen anytime by pressing one key if I need to use it.

If it can embed and play gifs and videos within the app instead of opening an in-app browser, it will definitely put it in front of the race between other apps currently available. I'll wait for the open beta so I don't need to sign up with an email.

It’s a bot from kbin that started posting yesterday. Some lemmy instances temporarily blocked the community it was coming from until the kbin admins fix it.

No question yet, but I love how there’s a weekly thread for this!

Huh. I wonder what they mean by “bad user UX”. I was expecting concerns about encryption or privacy, not UX. I already use Signal, so it would be a positive for me if they federate.

Right? Loudness wars haven’t stopped since the 90s. I always wear concert earplugs whenever I attend live shows.

How are these companies able to operate in broad daylight in the EU of all places? I mean the name itself is saying out loud what they do.

I was gonna say this as well. You can go 2 opposite directions. You can go for a country like Switzerland which has a lot of privacy rules in place. It generally protects you from malicious non-state actors. But you can also go the other way with a developing country whose government does not have the means or capability to monitor you. The tradeoff is your data on government systems is probably already compromised, just not by the government itself.

I think the part about knowing how to follow instructions is pretty much true though, at least for me. I only started cooking by myself in my mid-20s. I started by just searching a recipe and adding “simple” in my search query so I get something I can realistically make with what I have in the kitchen/pantry. Then I just follow it to the letter. Through repeated trial and error I eventually learned what could be done faster or easier, what ingredients can be substituted, etc.

I hate that they have the best cash back credit card right now according to nerdwallet. I want to get a new credit card as a backup but I really want to avoid wells fargo.
Anyone know if this is an instance or alexandrite thing? At first I assumed it was the lemmy.world instance not allowing certain words in comments, but I was able to post the same comment word for word directly on the instance. I've encountered this error several times.
So I frequently install firefox on different desktop devices and it’s a hassle to set up and configure all the privacy settings and extensions every time I install it on a new device. Obviously using a FF account and sync would be the easiest way to set it up quickly, however the I don’t want to keep my account logged in on every device since some of the devices aren’t mine. Having said that, is it possible for me to create a new sync account and configure it the way I want to; then log in on a new install, sync the config, logout, but retain my configuration there; essentially using the account to bootstrap config new firefox installations?
