The only peace you will find at the top of a mountain is the peace you bring there with yourself.

What's your favourite paid Android app? in c/android@lemmy.world
[–] DeadNinja@lemmy.world 10 points 1 month ago

The only paid app that I have is Moon+ Reader Pro.

I read a boatload of ebooks on my device, and this has been my ebook-reader of choice for a while. I found it to be so good that I did the IAP, and stopped using Librera Reader.

For all that matters, I am a huge supporter of FOSS apps (that's the reason I have only one paid app lol) - but Moon+ reader Pro beats Librera in two areas - Librera is pretty slow when it tries to open a huge file, and Librera also can't download book covers like Moon+ does.

In an instance like this, our riders have 24/7 access to Rider Support agents who will help them navigate the situation in real time

Clearly that's what a human driver would do, but I guess those Rider Support Agents work for free, so why not fire the driver? /s

What is one (1) track from a video game OST I should put on my work playlist? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml
[–] DeadNinja@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

I might come across as an obsolete dinosaur (which I probably am) - but I really enjoyed the tracks from Hitman game series, especially Exploration from Hitman 2 : Silent Assasin, and then became a fan of anything composed by Jesper Kyd.

Ever since TV remote was invented, people don't even lift their asses off the couch and walk over to the TV to change the channel. Unless a company adapts to changing tech landscape, they can be many things, but not a company for grown-ups.

I just read about this extension today. Seems interesting. The description says It's supposedly doing more than just switching the UA.

Jerboa v0.0.70-alpha Release in c/jerboa@lemmy.ml
[–] DeadNinja@lemmy.world 7 points 4 months ago

Not going back to Jerboa unless the basic feature of searching contents other than just communities is implemented. I find this fundamental feature sorely lacking in Jerboa while every other app around there have this.

Kind of surprising, because this is pretty basic feature, and has been open for over two years.

I take it that you were referring to Mull (Browser) and not MullVad (VPN service).

Goodbye [old].[reddit].[com] (lemmy.world)
 

For a while Reddit dot com has been blocking my browser since I use a VPN, but old reddit was still functional for me. Although I closed my reddit account just after the API-exodus, I still frequent the niche communities which has hyper-specific topics discussed.

Found to my surprise today that they are now blocking old reddit as well if I use a VPN.

Never thought that [old].[reddit].[com] would one day show that f'kin "Whoa there Pardner" page.

Fuck you spez. Really, fuck you.

Why do crumbles always settle at the bottom, like in a bag of chips, or a box of cereals? (lemmy.world)

Basically title.

My basic physics knowledge says that the larger chips - near the top of a bag of chips - are not "stable", they are kinda precariously balanced only at one or two points. But once the brittle chips break down, they tend to settle at the bottom because the crumbles are more "stable" there, and are at a lower state of potential energy.

Just my own theory, but would like to know what others think here.

Edit : Does this question not belong to this community ? I couldn't explain the downvotes..
