    Got the novavax finally this year. Overall a much better experience than the pfizer ones; usually i get severe chills, headache, bodyaches. This time was much more mild and i slept through the night without issues.

    thank you for this, cause i signed up for novavax on the website, but when i got to store they said it autoswitched to pfizer. I triple checked before he injected me, that it was the brand new novavax.

    50% chance you have an extension that is fucking with the cookie. Other 50% chance is that its a lemmy bug with the way its stores cookies.

    Try

    1. Delete all hexbear cookies, localStorage, cache, etc
    2. Disable all browser extensions

    Hexbear 0.19.5 update finished!

    Hi All, Thanks for the patience on the 8 hour downtime. The upgrade was completed successfully, and we are now on latest lemmy version, 0.19.5. The update encompasses these changes: https://join-lemmy.org/news/2024-06-07_-_Lemmy_Release_v0.19.4_-_Image_Proxying_and_Federation_improvements https://join-lemmy.org/news/2024-06-19_-_Lemmy_Release_v0.19.5_-_A_Few_Bugfixes In addition, we have decided to host a new, experimental frontend for lemmy, hosted at https://next.hexbear.net. This frontend is in-development at https://github.com/sunaurus/lemmy-ui-next. Its generally a faster, more efficient, and simpler UI. It is missing some features, such as markdown editor and emoji picker currently. But, if you are on a low-powered device, you may find the experience of browsing and posting much better than the official UI. Please post any bugs or feedback here and I'll try and address them if possible. Thanks!

    A good thread on installing win 11 properly

    Setting up your USB: https://x.com/ghost_motley/status/1804950177611927922 Getting the iso file for rufus: https://x.com/ghost_motley/status/1805021483892146249 Register using some Auto-KMS script, something like https://github.com/massgravel/Microsoft-Activation-Scripts might work, haven't checked in in a while. You really don't have to do scorched earth and install linux. Just do a proper install of win 11 enterprise, with Rufus, and a few minutes disabling anything else you don't like. Also, use explorerpatcher https://github.com/valinet/ExplorerPatcher to fix various things like start menu, task bar, etc. No ads, no Copilot AI, no search using bing, no telemetry, etc. etc. You can safely ignore all the doom and gloom about how windows is getting worse because if you remove all the crap its actually getting better.

    Come playtest my new incremental game!

    Hosted at https://xenkogames.gitlab.io/DIDOEN/ Hi everyone! In my spare time, I've been developing an incremental/idle browser game, working title: 'Do Idlers Dream of Electric Numbers', or colloquially: D.I.D.O.E.N. From the title, you can guess it is a cyberpunk themed game. It is strongly inspired by other similar games like 'A Usual Idle Life' and 'Progress Knight' Its currently just an Alpha version, meaning the core mechanics are pretty much complete, I just need to flesh out all of the content, the story, add an end game, and fix any remaining bugs after that. Its currently in a playable state, but mostly just the early game things. Currently developed for desktop browser, but mostly works in Mobile as well, minus some UI issues. The general gist of the game, if you haven't played anything similar, is that you slowly level up your jobs and skills over a lifetime, then when you die you start over, having gained permanent boosts to XP and various other things. And so you slowly improve every cycle until you reach the end game. Its mostly something you leave a tab open on in the background of your browser while you work or do other things and come back to check on and make changes and such. Please let me know what you think, and if you find anything that looks like a bug. The game is entirely written in C# Blazor, compiled to wasm, so no javascript going on for game logic. I eventually plan to open source the game after a while, though, if you wanted to look at it. I'm very welcome to any suggestions as well, especially regarding gameplay, the title (I'd welcome a better pun), or anything else. Thanks! Edit: Just FYI, i've changed the url to https://xenkogames.gitlab.io/DIDOEN/. I've also made a save-incompatible change unfortunately, so you will have to restart the next time you play. Going forward, there shouldn't be any more breaking changes to saves.
