He did say "very annoying" tho.

than reproducing a desktop

Oh you sweet summer child ๐Ÿ˜Š

I get what you mean, I really do, but the mobile launcher is very different from desktop.

Let me find an image of what a mobile desktop used to look like. It was literally the original Windows95 desktop, complete with recycle bin and start menu and task bar. Now that does not work on a mobile device, and modern phone launchers are light years ahead of those olden days.

I hope this link works:

Yes, you are right of course. It's a sad state of affairs.

๐Ÿ˜ฒ 13 years?? I had no idea! Wild. Okay maybe I need to find a modern alternative - but haven't found anything yet that's so nice as Nova was.

Nova just worked so well for me. Have looked into other launchers and they just aren't the bee's knees. ADW might not be the best either.

Thank you! Idont know when I will be in a position to really play this, but it's now on my list!

One more question - is there a simple way to just download a bunch of pdfs if I don't want to go visit my local printer, as you recommend in every readme?

[โ€“] PlutoniumAcid@lemmy.world 11 points 1 month ago (7 children)

I just reset my phone (because reasons) and while I was happy to use Nova for so many years, I decided to switch - trying ADW Launcher now.

Looks like it was a smart move.

I couldn't make the downloads work in my phone but visited the Gitlab pages to make it work.

It appears that (some parts of?) this is available in English and in German, which would be perfect for me.

Would this be suited to playing with kids, too?

It boggles my mind that people fall for these scams, and do so in such large numbers.

So much stupidity and/or so little tech literacy. Ow.

And it's depressing that there are so many sleazy people out there doing all kinds of bad things in general. Shame.

Yes, it's entirely possible to be married and still feel alone.

However, ranting about democrats and foreigners tells me this is not about being married or not. The guy has problems and worries that have nothing to do with marriage.

Still, I can somewhat relate. Living in another country since many years (because reasons), and I don't feel at home. Happily married, with kids, all good. But I'm not home, y'know?

People here don't need me; they all hang out with their childhood friends they've known forever. I'm the new guy, even after all these years. That makes me feel lonely. And it has nothing to do with being married.

Will existing devices continue to work "forever" or must we add them to the graveyard?

 

TLDR: I consistently fail to set up Nextcloud on Docker. Halp pls?

Hi all - please help out a fellow self-hoster, if you have experience with Nextcloud. I have tried several approaches but I fail at various steps. Rather than describe my woes, I hope that I could get a "known good" configuration from the community?

What I have:

  • a homelab server and a NAS, wired to a dedicated switch using priority ports.
  • the server is running Linux, Docker, and NPM proxy which takes care of domains and SSL certs.

What I want:

  • a docker-compose.yml that sets up Nextcloud without SSL. Just that.
  • ideally but optionally, the compose file might include Nextcloud office-components and other neat additions that you have found useful.

Your comments, ideas, and other input will be much appreciated!!

 

Prove me wrong, please?

edit: thanks for all the great comments, this is really helpful. My main take-away is that it does work, but requires dry air. In humid conditions it doesn't really do anything.

Spouse bought this thing that claims to cool the air by blowing across some moist pads. It's about as large as a toaster, and it has a small water tank on the side. The water drips onto the bottom of the device, where it is soaked up by a sort of filter. A fan blows air through the filter.

  1. Spouse insists that the AIR gets cooled by evaporation.
  2. I say the FILTER gets cooled by evaporation.
  3. Spouse says the cooled filter then cools the air, so it works.
  4. I say the evaporation pulls heat (and water) from the filter, so the output is actually air that is both warmer and wetter than the input air. That's not A/C, that's a sauna. (Let's ignore the microscopic amount of heat generated by the cheap Chinese fan.)

By my reckoning, the only way to cool a ROOM is to transport the heat outside. This does not do that.

We can cool OURSELVES by letting a regular fan blow on us = WE are the moist filter, and the evaporation of our sweat cools us. One could argue that the slightly more humid air from this device has a better heat transfer capacity than drier air, but still, it is easier to sweat away heat in dry air than in humid air.

Am I crazy? I welcome your judgment!

 

Colors are important!

Red = bad, stop, no, don't, forbidden. That does NOT go with upvotes.

 

I like the animation, odometer style. It works exceedingly well = I can downvote thirty-seven times and see the vote decrease thirty-seven times.

Not sorry to the damn cat photo that got downvoted hard as I discovered this.

 

... but it only works in the Business Edition ๐Ÿ˜ช

I have tested it in my own installation which is the Business Edition but it doesn't work, I get an error 429 instead.

I hope it works better for you!

 

Two minutes ago, I decided to clean up the post-Reddit mess on my phone.

I uninstalled RIF, because I use Wefwef now.

I uninstalled kbin, because I use Wefwef now.

Lots of icons disappeared from my launcher. Oops.

In my haste, I failed to notice that kbin is not an app, but actually a browser app like Wefwef. So I did not uninstall kbin - in fact I uninstalled Firefox! And with that, I lost all my launcher shortcuts, all my open tabs, and all my browser apps ( including kbin but also including Wefwef).

I really don't know all the stuff I lost that way but hey, if. I don't miss it then maybe that's okay?

 

What I have: Jerboa on Android, currently showing a post.

What I want: that "<" share symbol that lets me send the URL of the current post (or a specific comment) to another app on my phone (e.g. email, sms, etc) or to the clipboard.

I think that Jerboa just has not implemented this yet - right?
