Gboard was never really good at picking up strokes. Honestly, nothing ever managed to come close to the accuracy of Swype & Dragon, which is why I’m still using it even 5 years after being discontinued. You can get the apk easily, but unfortunately it won’t survive much longer when google enforces a new API version on Android.

Though I’ve heard of modded versions that should still work… Here’s to hoping. That app has been with me for 14 years.

I meant sh.itjust.works as controversial. But if the community is brand new, it might take a few days to federate properly.

Did you check if it’s defederated? Would be the first thing I do, that instance is a bit controversial.

In a browser, go to yourinstance.com/instances and navigate to “blocked instances” on the top.

Second thing to try is just link it here in the comments, with a leading !, such as !germany@lemmy.org - you should be able to follow the link in app and then subscribe from there.

Lastly, if it’s a very new community, it’s just a waiting game until your instance has synced up.

Fight whom? And why?

For me the withdrawal symptoms only start on day 2, I can do one day without caffeine just fine, but then it lasts ~3 days. Wouldn’t call it mild though, I had some really severe headaches. On the other hand side I never used any other addictive substances, so I wouldn’t be able to compare.

It’s made of polypropylene, partially recycled, extremely durable, and again fully recyclable if it does reach end of life at some point. It’s also certified BPA free - as opposed to the very first version (that was transparent and used a different plastic). BPA doesn’t leech into water unless exposed over a very long time anyway, and the average brew time is about 3-5 minutes; but it’s good they made the change anyway. If I remember correctly, BPA became an issue mostly due to being in baby toys that are chewed on, or bottles for beverages with a very long shelf life (e.g. water, that practically lasts forever) where it can leech out over time.

To me it’s the ideal travel brewer, since I can pre-grind my coffee and keep it in a tin box, where I can also put a stack of filter papers in to keep them from getting wet. Glass just wouldn’t work on the road, the risk of damage is simply too high. And you’ll anyway need to have a plastic plunger, or at the very least a plastic coated one, since you need to have a 100% tight seal.

At home I don’t use it often since I have a decent espresso machine, but I can see the merit as a daily driver in a small kitchen.

Edit: Oh btw, if the body was made of glass, I can totally see how it would shatter someday while applying force. You have to push with quite a bit of power the water through.

Caffeine in which context? Coffee, tea, energy drinks…?

Yep, but it opens it up to a broader audience. Even though that’s probably exactly the opposite of what he intended.

You can see someone bending over to pray to some Hindu (?) deity in the picture.

I wonder if the meaning of this phrase changed over time, or if it was a double entendre back then already.

Oh it did give a longer response initially, then I asked to reduce the sentence to its essence, just like the ad from this post did. The longer version was:

A woman occasionally prepares a meal for a man, including a variety of foods and drinks, potentially exotic or unusual. Despite her efforts and the variety she provides, the man often dismisses the meals disdainfully. Even when she’s struggling physically (with shaking joints), she keeps trying to please him with her cooking. But no matter how hard she tries, he often rejects her efforts, treating her with scorn. Despite his harsh treatment, the woman remains safe.

By dying sooner, probably. That fixes a lot of financial constraints.

NO LIBILITY was my favorite.

Got my residence permit for Malaysia. Capital gains freedom, here I come!

I’m with you on that.

They can, do, and will keep doing so. Damaging projects and efforts in the process.

A woman often cooks various meals for a man, but he consistently rejects her efforts despite her persistence, even when she’s physically struggling. Still, she remains safe.

Use a VPN and change your browser.

There are some things that can’t be helped, depending on your use case and work requirements.

So I double up or replace every built in (security) feature to be as independent as possible. Tinywall on top of the Windows firewall, Bit Defender on top of the Antivirus, Firefox instead of Edge, offline account instead of MS logon, etc.

Well then they obviously can’t help you…

If you look good, they all work.

If you don’t, they don’t.

Seriously, the free tier in every app allows for enough opportunities to match with someone. Whether that happens is really a matter of your looks (or well, the photos you’re using).

It’s a shallow world out there.
