    oh god this is a flash to the last, I think I had that back in 2014,2015? It sucked

    Is there any solution available for controlling the volume without pressing the physical volume buttons ?

    So I just bought a OnePlus 12 recently, I was used to controlling volume using the onehand operations goodlock module in my Samsung galaxy S23. I basically never had to press the volume buttons to control the volume unless absolutely necessary....

    I’d say PopOS, EndeavourOS (or just Arch), or just Fedora Linux 40 (might need to check a box to enable proprietary drivers on install for Nvidia to work right).

    Nothing will run MS365 though, that’s just not on Linux (and Wine doesn’t work very well for modern versions). Best you can do is a Windows virtual machine if you need the actual applications and not the cloud version.

    I’ve played 2077 and RDR2 on my PC (running arch Linux) with no problems. couple hundred hours between them. tbh I couldn’t compare to windows, since I just haven’t used windows in ~7 years

    yeah I use revanced + YT premium for sponsor block. Haven’t experienced any issues yet though

    [Feature Request] It would be really useful if we could set nicknames to WiFi ssids.

    I, often, find myself wondering what all these WiFi’s are on my phone and I think it would be useful to be able to set a nickname for a wifi network so to remember which one is which. For example “parents house” etc. What do you think?

    android is actually open-source, so you could implement this yourself and make a pull request

    you can get an ePLB (emergency personal locator beacon) which has no subscription since it is an international coalition for rescue. don’t need to pay garmin or whatever for that b.s. and it uses special satellites to locate you so it’s very reliable. This is what ships and planes use to signal distress as well.

    For what it’s worth, mine has been great. Luck of the draw?

    I don’t understand why this exists. Polestar has enough problems lol

    Forgive my skepticism but what could they possibly want to do that requires elevated permissions? Android is already pretty good about things like that

    animations are so pleasant. if you don’t like them turn them off in dev mode, don’t kill it for the rest of us

    Basically, the lemmy backend service for some reason marked every instance we federated with as inactive, which caused it to stop outbound federation with basically everyone. I have a few working theories on why, but not fully sure yet.

    TL;DR lemmy bug, required manual database intervention to fix

    This was a stressful start to a vacation!

    For a more detailed working theory…

    I’ve been doing a lot of infrastructure upgrades lately. Lemdro.id runs on a ton of containerized services that scale horizontally for each part of the stack globally and according to load. It’s pretty cool. But my theory is that since the backend schedules inactive checking for 24 hours from when it starts that it simply was being restarted (upgraded) before it had a chance to check activity until it was too late.

    theory:

    • scheduled task checks instances every 24 hours
    • I updated (restarted it) more than every 24 hours
    • it never had a chance to run the check
    • ???
    • failure

    This isn’t really a great design for inactivity checking and I’ll be submitting a pull request to fix it.
