Enter recovery mode and choose factory reset. The specific key combination for your device may vary.

Any of them still receiving security updates would be fine.

Accurate. I used Sync for Reddit until they were forced out. I then switched to Sync for Lemmy for the familiar interface, the ease of setup, etc. Sync literally brought me to Lemmy.

Since then I looked around and still prefer this app. On a side note: why does the UI for Voyager on Android look like some old version of iOS?

Hate all you want but Sync being popular is a good thing for Lemmy adoption.

I haven’t given up on my Plex server but this is so much easier. Hand my kids the remote and they can navigate the Stremio app and watch whatever without me having to hunt for it.

And that’s why I’m still using Tintin++ - it’s free and it’s great!

Connect via ssh to my home server from work

Using a cli torrent client to download stuff

Decide I need a VPN.

Install VPN again from CLI

Run VPN which disconnects my ssh connection

Even when I get home, the server is headless so I have to locate a keyboard and mouse before I can fix.

Ah yes, React - my favorite programming language

In medieval England it was trendy to make nicknames by rhyming with a shortened form

Robert -> Rob -> Bob

Richard -> Rick -> Dick

Margaret -> Meg -> Peg

William -> Will -> Bill

All being pretty common examples. This was covered pretty early on in the excellent History of English Podcast

The way to send the message is to vote third party. Every Republican I talk to tells me it’s a vote for the Democrats and every Democrat I talk to tells me it’s a vote for the Republicans. In reality it’s a message: We want something else. I really feel like Trump’s message in 2016 of draining the swamp had a lot of appeal to people. I live in super red territory and many of the hard core trumpers I have visited with have expressed that our current system is broken and corrupt - they felt like Trump was going to be at least something different. It’s a powerful message, unfortunately it’s Trump and therefore unconscionable to vote for him.

We need to legitimize and destigmatize multiple options beyond the two terrible parties.

Shaka, when the walls fell

The only winning move is not to play.

The Sun Does Shine - I was a supporter of the death penalty until I read this book. It totally rocked my world and I realized how totally wrong I was. There are evil people in this world, but I am not God and I don’t get to decide who lives and dies. Also, if there is even a small chance that someone was wrongly convicted, we can not kill them - we make ourselves murderers.

Really this book made me rethink my entire view on systematic racism, the prison system, and the death penalty.

I have definitely written code in my sleep. As to whether it would work in real life who knows, but I’ve had dreams that I was coding. It’s very annoying to do it in your sleep and then go do it in your awake as well.

Let’s not forget the Fish Cam. You could press Ctrl Alt F in Netscape and go to a live stream of a fish tank in like 1994
