Question: how did Iran come to obtain F14s?

And then someone gets a free trip to El Salvador.

I’m seeing Kevin from The Office with a giant pot of chili.

lol John Goodman is on the hood of a car smashing the windshield with a golf club or a baseball bat. Completely destroying the fuck out of this car. And he’s yelling “this is what happens when you find a stranger in the alps!”

Still think @Buffalox makes a decent point. You never know there could be some cowboy out there, sees a woman getting dragged into a van by masked men, and starts popping off rounds.

You want some 8x7A2 using the same bathroom as you???

And if it’s not fake, the president can declassify it just by thinking it.

Oh it’s great news either way. I’d just be curious about the numbers.

Yeah I’m wondering for how many weeks.

And then how many millions of ms office users there are? (Or billions…)

This is one way to deal with conflict of interests not being addressed. Too badly it can’t work for everything else. Like I can’t “boycott” space travel.

Right, you’d think they would provide vin numbers, which the government would then check against vehicle registrations with whatever DMV equivalent.

 

When I build with what is on the main branch, I get an error about invalid CFBundleShortVersionString, which appears to come from here:

ios/App/App/Info.plist

    <key>CFBundleShortVersionString</key>
    <string>$(MARKETING_VERSION)</string>

I can workaround / hack a fix by modifying the Info.plist file with something like:

    <key>CFBundleShortVersionString</key>
    <string>1.0.0</string>

But I assume that's not the right thing to do. What is the correct way to set CFBundleShortVersionString or $(MARKETING_VERSION) ?

 
 

When in Large Text Mode, information is truncated with ellipses "..." Here's a proposal for a better solution, which might help in regular text mode also.

Using Large Text Mode

In the feed we see posts appear like this:

The community appears as "green..."

This could show the full community name and post username, allowing line wrap, followed by a newline and the counts on the next line.

So instead of

O green...
^ 433 v 1 O 100% O 8h

This could instead show

O greentext@sh.itjust.works 
by user@instance 
^ 433 v 1 O 100% O 8h

Yes allowing line wrap might break the text at non-whitespace characters, but I think that would still be ok. E.g.

O greentext@sh.itju
st.works by user@instance 
^ 433 v 1 O 100% O 8h

Similarly when entering post and comment view

This could instead show

O greentext@sh.itjust.works 
by user@instance 
^ 433 v 1 O 100% O 8h

Then when viewing the comments

Rather than:

psycho_... ^ 14 v 0 ... 5h

You could again allow line wrap and add a newline between the user name and the vote counts.

This could instead read:

psycho_whatever@instance 
                       ^ 14 v 0 ... 5h

This should still be okay for wrapping long user names that don't wrap on whitespace characters. E.g.

some_long_user_name@so
me_long_instance_name 
                       ^ 14 v 0 ... 5h

Also user profiles do not render well in Large Text mode.

 

I don't give a shit about reddit's DP program.

The first two or three emails I was willing to ignore. But they keep sending these.

How desperate do you have to be?

 

I would like to build a music player / device for an older person, not tech savvy user.

I have the MP3s on my linux desktop/laptop, but not all the metadata and cover art.

I've worked with RPi before, jailbreaking iPhones and roku. So I have some limited experience with small devices.

I'm wondering if I could obtain some kind of old/used android phone, remove all the apps so the home screen is completely empty, transfer via USB or ssh/scp the MP3 files (and metadata + cover art), then have some kind of music player app which would be the only app on the phone/device.

Then shutdown any wifi or internet connectivity, but still allow bluetooth to pair with an external speaker.

 

There has been some dispute regarding bagged eggs recently.

I would be remiss if I did not follow up on this properly, so that the lemmy community might come to some kind of consensus regarding this highly controversial culinary phenomenon.

Serious answers only, please.
