Huh, thanks for the advice!

I have very poor working memory so thinking about words, and trying to remember letters, and thinking about how long they are, all at once, kinda fries my brain pretty quickly 😅 but I have a much easier time with the lateral thinking and word reasoning of connections

I’ll keep your advice in mind if I give the wordle clones a shot, or am playing sometime in the future post-strike!

Hope you have a good one 😊

Lol, I definitely found that rough at first, but it’s at least the kind of word puzzle I’m good at, I suck ASS at wordle 😅

Thank you!

Thank you!

I saw someone share this earlier today also as another option!

Periodic reminder in light of the #nyt strike that #wordle started life as a free, vanilla javascript website with no DRM and not owned by the nyt, and I packed it into a single html file that you can download and run offline or from any site, like this: https://jon-e.net/wordle.html

If anyone has an alternative for the connections game I really liked that one :)

Lemm.ee wasn’t a good fit for me previously because they federate with everyone and there used to be instances that just spammed redit cross-posts that got no engagement, but I think last I looked at that account it didn’t seem to be an issue anymore.

Shit just works is one I was considering. And I see dbzer0 regularly and meant to go take a look at that instance

This is a really helpful resource you might appreciate: https://github.com/maltfield/awesome-lemmy-instances

At a glance I don’t see lemm.ee anymore so they may no longer be allowing new account creation

Thats fair. A na miata is basically my dream car, I hope to someday daily one in spite of being from the 90s 😅

I mean, a lot of cars have a genuinely phenomenal life span, if you don’t mind getting something that isn’t shiny and new you can probably get like a 2012 Toyota or Honda and drive it till the wheels fall off. My dream car is from the 90s and people still generally regard them as fairly reliable

Eventually it’ll be an issue, but that does leave a lot of time for nerds and hackers to find a way to gut networking stuff while telling the car it’s still intact. Dunno if we’ll ever see an open source car OS compatible with the systems in major manufacturer’s vehicles, but privacy workarounds feel like they could be pretty realistic

Thank you for proving the superiority of the objectively best candies, skittles, sour patch kids, starbursts, and reece’s 😌

Thanks! I’m still picking out what instance I think might be a better fit for me

Yeah, direct health impact aside they’re still disposable products that poison our water to manufacture, and poison the people who make them.

Like thats profoundly awful, one really doesn’t need any more reason to avoid them, that’s a very reasonable choice

Thank you for the additional info, I will have to look into that at some point :)

From what I understand the risk associated with Teflon pans is mostly with manufacturing with them, and the chemicals affecting manufacturing workers and getting in waterways, not cooking and eating from them.

The risk from heating them up is generally considered to be minor, and an uncommon accute risk, rather than something that happens regularly and that affects long term health. Adam ragusea did a very well reseached video on the subject where he spoke to experts about where the risks do and don’t lie (actually it looks like he’s done two, this is the more recent one)

But do know that buying them facilitates their manufacture, and the impact on workers and the environment is pretty horrible.

The chemicals involved are often called “forever chemicals” because they basically never break down, meaning they’ll pretty much just accumulate for as long as we manufacture things with them, which includes A LOT of different products. Rain coats are often made with them, and aren’t supposed to shed pfas or pfoas, but evidently do anyway at alarming rates, and our water sources are already fairly contaminated. This video does a really good job of covering that side of the conversation about “forever chemicals”

Syncthing-fork still seems to be under active development, at least for the time being

https://f-droid.org/packages/com.github.catfriend1.syncthingandroid/

I’m surprised you’re the only person talking about syncthing-fork and that it’s not the top comment, it’s the only android client I’ve actually used

https://f-droid.org/packages/com.github.catfriend1.syncthingandroid/

Here’s the f-droid repo for folks who might prefer to get it that way

Most people use an extension on web and an app that uses the system autofil functionality on mobile (at least on android, I’ve not used iOS for a long time)

You don’t have to open anything, or type anything other than a password. On mobile you just use your fingerprint, don’t have to type anything at all.

If you’re taking about initial setup that’s also gonna be a lot more complicated for an average user than bitwarden.

A command line tool is not even remotely a comparable user experience. It may work wonderfully for you, and I’m glad it does, but it’s pretty out of touch to suggest that it’d be a good fit for most people

Its worth noting I don’t think they’re actually a company anymore, I think they’re now a non-profit (I may be mistaken, but that’s my present understanding)

Syncthing fork seems to still be under active development

I’m not on iOS, but this looks pretty cool! Keep up the good work!
