Or how noone uses the default phone messaging app outside of the US.

This sent me to Wikipedia for kiwifruit, where I read the Chinese characters translate as "macaque peach," but I don't know if that means "peach-ish fruit macaques like to eat" or "peach-ish fruit with fur like a macaque."

I think we can skip the " Chinese gooseberry" interval.

I assume the Kiwi who rebranded them as "kiwifruit" 🥝 intended both "from New Zealand" and "sorta looks like a kiwi bird."

Also isn't English the only European language not to call Pineapples some variation of "ananas"?
in reply to HiddenLayer555

European Spanish calls it Piña, and Brazilian Portuguese calls it Abacaxi.
in reply to jmcs

Ananás & Abacaxi refer to different types of pineapple. In Portugal we use both. In Brasil, Abacaxi is used because it's the type they have and with time it came to mean all kinds of Ananás.




Bottles 51.14 Update Brings Windows 11 Support

in reply to petsoi

I have yet to have any success with Bottles but I assume it's because I don't know what I'm doing and I'm trying with software known to be difficult.

I remote into a Windows PC for Fusion 360 and Affinity suite but if I could get those working on Linux I'd be in really good shape.

in reply to Toribor

Fusion used to work but autodesk changed the redirects in their login system, so it no longer does...

Tragic. Especially since there's no reason Fusion couldn't be a webapp or PWA, autodesk already made it annoyingly cloud-focused.

As HN: RustDesk Installs Chinese Root Certificates


WTF? A root cert that I don't know how the private key being handled install sliently? This isn't just a mishap but a fucking backdoor. No matter how legit the purpose is, this is plain unacceptable.

Update: It seems they have removed that cert already.

I don't get the FUD post. The thing is open-source. If security audit is required, why not just do it?

The OP is a new user with no other posts, except this in many places

Mastodon gets a very good write-up in Stuff Magazine


cross-posted from: lemmy.ml/post/21340843

Came across this article in the latest stuff magazine and in the past, a lot of writers were a little unsure, but seams more positive.

No, it is some sort of incompatibility I guess.

It's a jpg.

But the problem is most likely related to the ActivityPub message. It seems that Lemmy doesn't support attachments!?

in reply to melroy

What format do you use for pictures?

Are pictures from Lemmy viewable on Mbin?

in reply to Blaze (he/him)

in reply to melroy

Lemmy probably limits those to posts and not comments, and expects comments to have pictures in the comment body

Alternative to syncthing for large music collection?

Change the full-rescan interval to monthly, or yearly even, problem solved.
in reply to gomp

FreeFileSync detects moves and changes quickly without rereading the whole file. The first time you sync it will read every file to hash them first, this takes a long time but subsequent syncs will be fast.

Yeah that describes me pretty well, but I’m not bummed. I mean, not really.

I don’t know. I could use therapy, but I must not have been honest enough because through my drug rehab program I was in therapy and they decided that I didn’t need it any more. They said that if I felt like I did, I could tell them, but I always want to just grab my meds, joke with the doctor, and get out of there.

I don’t know. If I am depressed I’m surviving. I wasn’t surviving before. I was just paralyzed and waiting for death. I felt like a living thing though without having to think about it, but I didn’t want to be a living thing. Now I do, and my life is objectively a mess but I’m doing better than I ever have, so it’s hard to say I’m depressed when I’m doing better than ever.

Life is a challenge, and that sucks because so far for me, it has flown by.

Can't wait to see the media/israel try and label her an anti-semite.
in reply to Not_mikey

That asshat Netanyahu already condemned the UN as, and I'm paraphrasing "full of anti-Semites"

Seriously there is rot in the Israeli government and it is making Jews around the world more hated and less safe.

You ever heard about the IBM divestment strikes that happened during WW2? Pretty telling about where American capitalists stood.

And they weren’t the only ones: Coke and Ford were also very “interested” in Nazi markets. Ford a little bit more into “supplying the Nazi regime”.
