Yep UK’s certainly not sweltering, although we have gone over 100f on five occasions, all in the last 3 years (and all in the south east of England which is our warmest region)
I couldn’t say scientifically but it’s generally not felt that humid. We do get what we call ‘muggy’ days where you can feel a storm brewing, but often the hottest days are drier.
I’ve experienced real heat and humidity in Northern Australia and we never get those levels in the uk.
I actually think it can be harder to communicate moderation. I have a friend who’s a recovering alcoholic and when he says “I don’t drink” he rarely gets any pushback.
Whereas I do drink sometimes, and even get drunk very occassionally, but can go weeks without it. Some people have trouble with the idea that I drank one time they saw me but are choosing not to the next time. It’s a bit like the way some straight or gay people can’t wrap their heads around the concept of bisexuality… “which one are you? Straight or gay? Teetotal or drinker?” 😂
I just managed to get a absolute baseline working app in avaloniaUI using this library that someone cooked up. No idea if the library is actively maintained, but uh, we’ll figure that out when we get to it....
Yes! I tried a couple for Linux and they were shite 😂
To answer the ‘just use the browser’ comments - I don’t like the tiny image box for posts. I’d like a much larger display for image/video-based posts so I can enjoy them at a glance. I’ll only click into them if I especially want to read or post comments

mine Samsung Galaxy a32 4g (will probably switch to a Google pixel 7a somewhat soon) and the default web browser is Firefox but i am in the process of switching to iceraven
Yeah I’ve been too lazy to install a custom ROM. I do use a different launcher (KISS) and am pretty happy with the phone overall. I do get the odd random crash, and the memory management is a bit aggressive
I am looking for some good tech sites that have longer articles and indepth reviews. Preferably without an obvious biased towards a particular company or brand. edit: I should have clarified what to was looking for. I would like to compile a list of lesser-known but useful websites so that I can stay current on tech news without...
Yes. If I’m away long enough they might, but I’ve just switched back to Brave after about an hour away, and no refresh. Whereas Firefox would refresh every time I switched app, which made it unusable for me. E.g. enter username on a webpage, switch to password manager to copy password, switch back and Firefox reloads the page. Infuriating
It’s a shame because I really want to use Firefox. I’m sure this is partly aggressive memory management on Android, and maybe especially on MIUI (do you have a Xiaomi by any chance?) But none of the Chrome derivatives have this issue (Brave, Vivaldi, Privacy Browser all work fine for me)
I have a bit of a thing of watching Darts and sometimes professional bowling. Two things that are best described as ‘pub games’ but are treated as sports in some fields. I can accept the argument that it’s boring watching two dudes, literally, go in a circle as they throw 3 darts at a time, chipping at 501....

Or just “I don’t do drugs”, or “I don’t do recreational drugs”?...
