Fuck ads, they’re everywhere at every level. I want to see less of them, not more.

Pro tip: you can use Google's Verbatim mode to get exactly what you want.

We changed to USB-C ports because the EU forced us we have courage!

Risk is practically nothing in your case, because you’re being careful, and know what you’re doing. You won’t run a binary when you were expecting the Barbie movie, for example.

If you were downloading binaries, then your risk is significant, but even then, unless you’re downloading new releases immediately, it’s likely that your antivirus will catch the new popular ransomware after a few days, when a few thousands of people have become infected. Governments won’t employ valuable zero-days on any rando who just wants to see their new isekai episode.

You could also go back, right click the link that took you to this file, and select “save as”.

Fun fact: the word “water” comes from the Proto-Indo-European “wat”, which is hypothesized to have roots in the Urheimat expression “wat the fuk?”.

Water dissolves matter, and we’re supposed to be 70% water, but living creatures would collapse in a puddle of organic matter if that was true.

What we perceive as water is really compacted air, brought together by the pressure of the lower atmosphere. This is why clouds, an preliminary state of compacted air, can’t stay up as soon as they’ve compacted enough.

While compacted air is technically healthy, our lungs are not strong enough to breathe it, we’d need muscular gills for that.

I’ve used Metatext, but the official app did enough progress that I returned to it.

I entered the TestFlight of Memmy, Mlem, Thunder and Liftoff!, and Memmy impressed me with the speed of development, stability, and feature addition. I love it.

Mlem is a close second, but it lacks QOL details that Memmy got right from the start. The other two are still at alpha level, but all of them are improving steadily.

The Fediverse, its ecosystem, and the passion developers and admins pour into it, it feels like an alternate Internet reality, but a better reality for a change.
