Is Signal down for anyone else?

Reddit seems to be having issues as well. hah

Signal seems to be down as well?

COBOL handles the books because no one else can understand the system and it’s too much work to change after 40 years

… what?

Why detonate artillery shells over a highway, or around people at all

!world@lemmy.world has a rule against United States internal news, which is a nice balance for me, but it can still be dominated by news about ways that the US is affecting things around the world

Taps ‘View Map’

Allow deflock.me to use your location?

I get why it’s helpful, but this might discourage the target users from using the tool. Maybe it could request location only if the user taps a ‘locate me’ type button?

Amazing, thank you!

This deserves a post of its own

Very cool, thank you!

If they ask for recommendations / alternatives, then I mention it.

I also share links with friends when there’s something relevant or interesting, same as any other social media platform. Usually it’s when there’s a good comment or explanation, else it makes more sense to share the original source

They all cool really cool, which might also mean that they’re all deadly to handle?

Hanneke Faber became CEO of Logitech on December 1, 2023, after leaving her role as group president at Unilever. Since joining the Swiss peripheral manufacturer, Faber has attracted attention for her unconventional ideas about how personal technology should evolve – often with a focus on benefiting shareholders and companies first.

Faber is now best known for proposing the so-called “Forever Mouse” concept – a device with constantly evolving firmware features built on base hardware that customers would purchase only once. According to Faber, users would happily pay monthly or annual subscriptions to access these software-based upgrades. However, no concrete business plans have yet been announced to bring the idea to market.

Regarding pricing, the CEO compared the mouse to a Rolex watch and the software to Logitech’s video conferencing business. A paid subscription is possible, but Faber offered no further details.

It’s still helpful for messages. The social share/thumbnail isn’t always available

I’m not saying that this should take priority over all the other things the developers are doing, but I’d still like to see it implemented at some point

Perfect, it’s like apple bobbing 😄

I loved reading that, thank you for sharing :))

That sounds nice 😄 My neighborhood doesn’t get that much activity, but it’s picking up year by year.

What kind of treats do you usually give out?

Yea it’s usually cold around Halloween. A small warm snack would be really nice, maybe Costco sample style?

I get that a lot of people would stick to store bought packaged foods for potential illness/lawsuit reasons, but in the right circumstances this might be a nice alternative.

I don’t think the developer has any control over the ads. Google selects those?

Best you can do is to report those ads to Google, or get rid of them by buying premium / blocking them with pihole or a DNS blocker

Nice! Looking forward to seeing how it develops

I also find it nice and snappy. Two small things I noticed:

• It could benefit from some onboarding steps (ex. Setting the location, not having Tennessee saved as a favourite)
• Some visuals aren’t that helpful since they use a different scale on each day (ex. Daily temperature)
