mudeth, to canada in Stress-relieving dogs now permanent fixture at YVR - BC | Globalnews.ca

Thank you. My partner is afraid around dogs and cats, and news like this makes me feel bad for her.

I had the same dilemma about emotional support animals.

Peek means that as long as you’re touching the thumbnail, you see the zoomed in image (after a short delay). When you release, it snaps back to the front page. Without peek you would touch, view the image, and then gesture ‘back’ to go back to the main page.

This works on articles and gifs too, not just images. So if the thumbnail is informative you can save a lot of time and steps and get a quick gist of what the article is talking about

I didn’t realise how much I missed image peek (long press a post to popup the thumbnail image) until I switched back from jerboa to sync when it first came out. Especially since I mostly seem to be reading webcomics.

I don’t comment much, but sync’s draft feature feels very solid.

Otherwise I did feel jerboa was good and would have gotten used to it.

mudeth, to asklemmy in Whats your favorite free open source software that everyone should try?

Because why not! Easy way to SCP files over, run scripts. Repurpose old devices as always on, low power servers. It ties in nicely with Tasker so if you want to extend functionality it’s easy.

Good points to note, thank you! I would have taken the balancing circuit for granted, but it doesn’t hurt to double-check with vendors.

I didn’t know that deep-discharge batteries also had the same characteristics, TIL, and it makes sense based on my experience with them!

mudeth, to linux_gaming in How's the driver situation for the new AMD cards?

Isn’t this an intrinsic problem with AMD graphics chips? I thought this was the case on windows as well.

Thanks for your insight. You seem to have some experience.

I’m currently researching a solar hybrid power system in India and am going through different battery types. We have used deep-cycle lead-acid batteries with a regular UPS and I’m familiar with their lifesoan.

Do lifepo4s last longer? I’m only seeing marginally longer lifespans. I’m also concerned about safety. I’m quite scared of regular lithiums and have read that lifepo4s are more hardy.

What about maintenance? Anything else I need to know about them?

mudeth, to selfhosted in How do you keep your home servers online during powercuts?

Forgive me if I’m wrong, but auto batteries aren’t meant for deep discharge. UPS’s use a specific type of battery that is meant for it.

Using auto batteries in this situation would likely end up in them dying after a few months.

mudeth, to selfhosted in Which domain name registrar should I use?

Namecheap is cheap and has low cost (free?) Privacyguard. Nearlyfreespeech.net is a principles-first web hosting company that is committed to free speech and also offers domain hosting and registration.

mudeth, to technology in Microsoft to Drop Support for Third-Party Printer Drivers on Windows

So did my Asus motherboard. It didn’t install armoury crate, but it pop up as a suggestion. Maybe op just clicked through absent-mindedly?

mudeth, to canada in Canada ranked as 2nd best country in the world.

Fair!

mudeth, to canada in Canada ranked as 2nd best country in the world.

As a digital nomad, I’m guessing you would have been to relatively low CoL places like Bali, Thailand, maybe Eastern Europe or LatAm. You have to remember that your experience as someone from the global north, earning in a strong currency is very different from a local person there.

Not that i disagree with you that rankings are flawed but by the same token, Canada /is/ in the top 5 for many people from low standard-of-living countries

mudeth, to asklemmy in Who is a Youtuber you find to be overrated ?

Thanks for the answers! I had a bad taste in my mouth after his dandruff video which felt very corporate but I gave him the benefit of the doubt assuming that the science was solid. I guess my gut instinct was right.

I still think a lot of his videos are good, it’s just sad that the obviously sponsored ones are low quality. I’ll check out the links and response video someone else posted and keep being skeptical.
