  • that’s also something I won’t get over

    This is a tell tale sign of depression; the feeling that there is no “better” ahead. I could tell you there is but it might be hard to believe.

    In my situation, I have a person by my side always who I trust completely. So I have somebody to help keep my head and memory clear… and I still get depressed sometimes. Hang in there.

  • Unfortunately, it seems we’re reaping what we sow by switching from Keynesian to Neoliberal economics. It was going ok when the demand side had money to spend. We’ve had several decades of paying for that now.

  • Because it is a decently polished app that is by many metrics a step up from Twitter, and it has a ton of people. Social networks will always be a numbers game. Some will hit the curve and some won’t, but it is often not linked to technical merit.

  • I actually agree, and therefore think tariffs can be, if thoughtful and executed well, good for a country’s self-reliance and defense (cake). What it generally can’t be is good for the economy (eating it too).

  • They care because their economies rely on people buying the products. The reasons why tariffs hurt both sides is because the movement of products decays. That’s the whole idea, so that the products’ supply source changes.

  • “1kW within 1hr” isn’t power. That’s energy.

    “nice steady energy”? You mean nice steady power, right?

    “The second is like hell hole, tons of energy but still only a little bit of power.” No. They are both precisely the same energy.

    “So if you toasted a toast, that was a lot of power delivered quickly.” No. That is a lot of energy delivered quickly.

    I typically wouldn’t be pedantic about this, except that this is precisely the point the video is making. These two unit types are often confused.

    I find the hard puzzles take a long time too.

    NeovideProject - A macOS application that manages Neovide instances per Git repository, providing a seamless project-based editing experience.

    I like smooth scroll. I love Neovim. So I use Neovide. But I really wanted a nice way to manage instances per git repository / project, including server / remote socket management and allowing files to be opened into the correct instance. It detects running instances and opens into or switches to them accordingly.

    This is also integrated into Finder and open via a swift wrapper. So one can, for example, use raycast to quick switch projects.

    Check it out if that sounds interesting. There is also a longer video guide on the Usage wiki.

    Zen Browser - A very nice, Firefox-based, clean UI browser

    This has gotten some attention, especially about a week ago, but I really hope more people will continue to try it and, if interested, support it. It is Firefox, but heavily modified to please a different audience that prefers a slightly different UI than Firefox. It has some of the appeal of Arc, Vivaldi, and the Sidebery extension.

    In my view, it is very promising, and all competition in this space is good. Here it is on Github, also.

    opentofu.org OpenTofu is going GA | OpenTofu

    Today is a big day for OpenTofu! After four months of work, we're releasing the first stable release of OpenTofu, a community-driven open source fork of Terraform. OpenTofu, a Linux Foundation project, is now production-ready. It’s a drop-in replacement for Terraform, and you can easily migrate to i...

    Get YouTube share URL sans tracking query param

    When you copy the URL for sharing in YouTube, it adds a query parameter now, so=blah, for tracking the source. This removes that. It could of course be smarter and stop at either the end or the next parameter, but since I haven’t seen any extras, I just remove everything after.

    What is your favorite anthropology documentary?

    I am especially interested in the initial migrations into the Americas 15,000+ years ago, but our community is small and my interests large, so... any great documentaries are welcome.

    Dear YouTube; About that Chapter Skipping Feature

    Please, sincerely, from the bottom of my heart, allow us to disable this chapter skipping feature (the one where tapping left or right to bring up the scrubber, then double tapping the other direction because 100% of people want to skip that direction some unit time - 10 seconds by default). This ends up feeling random and is just vexing.

    It is the worst feature added to any software, maybe ever in the history of computing. How many hours are wasted trying to figure out where one was in this video? How much power and network bandwidth is consumed fighting this feature that I’ve not seen a single comment online of anybody benefitting from ever.

    This feature is adding to human suffering by wasting energy and damaging people psychologically. Go please, look online, and consider castigating the creator of this feature in the public square. And then take a good hard look at yourself for not stopping this evil from ever being added in the first place.

    Yours aye, Sane People

    Arc Browser @lemmy.world

    Has The Browser Company made any statements about Manifest v3 and Arc?

    I’m curious if they have made any public statements on the topic. Now that the deprecation of MV2 is back on a schedule, a lot of Chromium forks will be affected by the change.

    I’m a huge FLOSS and Firefox fan, but Arc’s UX is unparalleled in my view and I’ve switched for the time.

    I can’t find anything on their website, YouTube, or Discord that makes a firm statement on the topic, but it would be very reassuring if they would or have.

    State of current alternatives

    There are currently several applications available for iOS to access Lemmy instances. Each of which has its own benefits and drawbacks. I love Voyager (or wefwef as I still like to call it), but even the installed app is I believe just a repackaged PWA. So I’ve been looking at alternatives that vary from PWA to native Swift implementations. The list I’ve checked out so far are.

    • Avelon
    • Bean
    • Mlem
    • Memmy
    • Voyager / vger.app

    I know Lemma is forthcoming, also.

    I’m wondering what others current preferences are including values like price, license, governance, and features.

    It feels to me like the days before Apollo arose where there were many great Reddit apps, but none that stood head and shoulders above the rest. Does anybody feel there is an app shining to that degree yet as Apollo did once it hit the scene?
