The android version has had this for a while.

Non-Americans who have been to the US.. What is the weirdest thing about America that Americans don't realize is weird? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

I never understood the need to display multiple US flags in your yard. We get it, you live in america. You love America. We get that too. Are you afraid someone will think you no longer wish to be American if you took your flags down?

Ah so how many Russian political visitors has Trump had to his place? Hmmm

Technically they’re not wrong. Someone at walmart has to source and buy the self scanners. 🤷‍♂️

That’s a great way to look at it. You’re probably spot on.

I tried organic maps once and it told me to do a u turn as the last instruction in the route, when I actually needed to turn right into my destination. I rarely drive these days but I'll definitely try it again to see how well it does.

I’d love to know what brand these really are or who made them. Made in china or Mexico?

Star Wars Outlaws sales were 'softer than expected,' so Ubisoft is slamming the release-it-on-Steam button early in c/games@sh.itjust.works

“Softer”? Management/executive speak for “we released a crap product”.

They could have a cage fight to work it out. I know who my money is on.

Mark Cuban rips Trump threat to hit John Deere with massive tariffs: ‘Insane’ in c/politics@lemmy.world
[–] YurkshireLad@lemmy.ca 23 points 1 week ago

It doesn’t matter. To his uneducated supporters, it sounds like he’s doing the right thing and punishing John Deere and Chiiiiiiiiina by imposing tariffs.

Anyone familiar with SFTPGo? (lemmy.ca)
 

I’m trying to set up a group so multiple users can share a folder. I created the group and a folder for it but I’m not what paths I should use for both. The result is that the user can see the group folder in the web UI but an error occurs after clicking on it:

“Failed to get directory listing: Unable to get directory contents"

Thanks

Best chipset for Linux laptop, Intel or AMD? (lemmy.ca)
 

I’m considering picking up a cheapish laptop for development, with the intent of installing Linux on it. Typically it’ll be Java development or other stuff in docket containers. Is there a best chipset to pick for Linux or are they pretty much identical these days?

Ghostery browser and android? (lemmy.ca)
 

I was looking at browsers in the Play store and saw the Ghostery browser. It's now apparently based on Firefox, and I assume the Ghostery (plugin/extension) functionality is built in. Does it protect privacy better than other browsers and is it worth trying out? I currently use Firefox on android but I detest it's UI decisions. I've no idea if Ghostery has a different UI or not.

Self hosted video chat (lemmy.ca)
 

If I self host some kind of private video chat service, is the video data transferred direct from connected peer to peer? Does it go through the self hosted service instance? Or does that depend on which video server is used?
