I guess disabling full screen notifications for the phone app does work, but I kinda liked the full screen notifications when I'm driving.

Thanks, I'll check that out.

"had"

Were you able to make the alert stop?

I suppose I could try that. I was hoping for an easier solution.

The phone is really great other than this one annoying "feature," especially for the price.

Actually, I already do that. I have two two steam deck docks, one in the living room and one in the office. I still like having the dedicated device for streaming though. Especially since I tend to download movies/shows sometimes. Can't be filling up the steam deck storage with non-games!

I also sometimes use the deck in handheld mode while my husband watches TV.

I bought a mini PC and plugged it into the TV. I use a "wireless mini keyboard with trackpad" to control it. My husband and I have been using it for years. Beelink's mini Ryzen PCs are quite solid in my experience. I have Linux on mine. Firefox with ublock origin. No ads, like ever.

What's the point of the empty circular rooms around the edge of the colony? Is it something to do with melee combat? I've never done a melee only colony.

It is surprisingly nice. You're the second person to compare it to a Majohn. So, I ordered one of those too! In a different color and nib size, of course.

Haha, yes, everyone else is trying to ruin my fun. I can fly sometimes, but not for long, and it's a real struggle to stay airborne.

I'm glad I'm not alone. My husband barely dreams at all.

By the purest definition (being aware that you are dreaming), I lucid dream nearly every night. I never did anything special to achieve this.

But, it's not as fun as they make it sound. At some point, my mind started resisting me. Sure, I can do anything I want... sometimes. However, most of the time, anything I change goes back to the way is was immediately.

I also used to be able to wake myself up while lucid dreaming. For instance, maybe I would be aware that I am napping, and I need to wake up. So, I would. But, my mind now resists that as well. When I try to wake myself up, sometimes I just wake up into another dream. And, for whatever reason, I am not aware that I am dreaming in the new dream.

None of this upsets me too much, but it is annoying. I think it may be related to some sort of mild, generalized sleeping disorder I have. I experience sleep paralysis and insomnia episodes, but they've never been frequent or upsetting enough for me to seek treatment.

Send me one and I'll let you know! Just kidding. I haven't heard of Moonman. Do know know where they're sold?

Cope

Very rare? It's never happened. It's considered impossible. The fetus has no way to get nutrients outside of the uterus. Maybe one day we will develop a method of transferring the fetus into the uterus or an artificial womb. Maybe. One day.

Edit: never happened in the fallopian tubes. It can attach other places but the survival rate is 1% or less.

Cowboys are frequently fond of Orville Peck.

REMINDS ME OF THIS SCENE FROM 30 ROCK, MFER!

I'm aware of Lemmygrad, yes. FOSS is the reason why I joined Lemmy, and I was at least mildly aware of the developers' philosophy. I wasn't aware they were moderating all dissent.

I mean, I mostly look at memes, so I never noticed that. And .ml stands for Mali, the country. I didn't know it was a dual meaning acronym.

Do you care to elaborate a bit more on what you don't like about .ml moderation? I joined Lemmy before the reddit exodus. At the time I joined, .ml was the largest instance.

If only they could attach the sail to some kind of pole connected to the ship, so that this isn't an issue. Ridiculous, I know.

The APK for F-droid, because I just got a new phone.

According to Wikipedia: "One of the reasons why adults emerge in winter seems to be the absence of predators." Another reason seems to be reproduction, which is probably why the adult form does not eat. They mate "indiscriminately," apparently. Sounds like a good time.

I have a copy of the Bible in Braille. It takes up an entire 2 ft. wide by 6-ish ft. tall bookshelf. (.6 by 1.8 m)

I watched half of the whole series this Saturday simply because it was on episode one by chance when I tuned into Pluto TV. Its jokes are timeless. The characters are very real. And, it's more mature than you might think for a cartoon with teenage characters. (Except Aang of course, who is one hundred and twelve.)

Oh, I guess it was you who didn't say fen. But it's probably more correct to leave "fen" out, at least if you want to be understood. It is not s common word. I had to look it up.

As a native speaker, I've never heard the word "fen" in my life. So, that's probably why they didn't say that.

I caught some flak because my husband is 8 years younger. I reminded my family that they let my mom get married off at 14, and nobody brings it up anymore. Tennessee (USA), if you're wondering.

When will the ambidextrous have their day?

I disagree. He said "I think [she smelled my fart]."

I absolutely believe that. I believe he thought that. I also believe he is stupid af.

Es kommt aus Französisch. Es ist Fremdwort for uns beide.

(Sie hasst ihn, weil er die Wahrheit sagt.)

That's what I why trying to say. They don't eat the meat as kids and they die young, hence why prion disease isn't a huge issue. However, I bet it still affects some. And, when it does, they just think it's because of the "male witches." They wind up eating the "witches" and making the problem worse.

Edit: I wanted to add that I think it's interesting that they see the brain as a delicacy. I wonder if it's because the killer gets to keep the brain (and therefore it is rare/sought after) or if they actually like the flavor/texture.

Excellent read. I was wondering how they deal with prions. It seems their "solution" is not feeding the human meat to children and usually not living past middle age. They seem to die from a lot of diseases, and I can't help but think some of them are prion related.

DIESER

Brünhild is a character from Germanic heroic lore. So, I don't think so?

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brunhild

I'm from the USA, and when I first heard "digga," I was certainly confused! It seems the youth say it even more than the generation that invented the phrase now.

Anyway, English speakers have an old phrase that is similar and might help some understand the usage of the word "thick" here. The phrase is "thick as thieves" - meaning thieves stick together.

It doesn't. "Monkey" is used in common racist language against black people. That's the racist aspect.

"Monkeypox" also became associated with the LGBT+ community after the most recent breakout in the USA. And Americans love hating the gays almost as much as they love being racist. So, there are (at least) two negative stigmas associated with "Monkeypox." They attempted to alleviate this by changing the name to Mpox. (It arguably didn't help much.)

https://www.npr.org/sections/goatsandsoda/2022/11/28/1139403803/who-renames-monkeypox-as-mpox-citing-racist-stigma

Mpox was monkeypox. They renamed it in an attempt to remove stigma.

So, I thought it was trying to locate the power socket on the wall and plug itself in. This was great.

As a beneficiary of anal, I disagree.
