Good. I despise Trump, and look forward to seeing him and all of his crooked cronies behind bars. However, nobody has any right to threaten or attempt to harm anyone. This imbecile deserves the full weight of the law just like all of these morons threatening the judges and prosecutors overseeing Trump's now numerous indictments.

I know. The keyboard I have on Android lacks a backslash. I did just find it on the Samsung keyboard, though, so

C:\DOOM\DOOM.EXE Edit: Fixed wrong slashes because crappy Android keyboard was missing it. Swapped keyboard.

Yeah. All those damned Jewish Nazis in charge over there.

If you were any dumber, you'd be a doorstop.

"Wrote a wrapper". Oh, is that all? It's just that easy, huh?

Then why can none of these FOSS apps deliver the same experience, if Dawson is such an untalented hack?

You either have no clue of what you're talking about, or you're a troll. From my perspective, there is no substantive difference. If it's such an easy shtick, the do it yourself, and do a better job. Put up, or shut up. Nobody asked for your respect, and I'm certain you know precisely where you can shove it.

It really is tempting to click on that $99 lifetime sub. I kinda feel like I got way more than my money's worth out of Sync for Reddit, and I'll use it for many more than the five years it would take to pay more for yearly subs.

It's amazing how divorced from reality the FOSS obsessed can be whenever anyone mentions non-FOSS apps. Nobody is bending over backwards, and nobody is sucking anyone's schlong. If Sync were to have been FOSS, you'd be first in line to sing its praises. This trollish behavior doesn't win anyone over to the "All Software Must Be Foss" camp at all. Must be a PC Master Race thing.

That's been my experience. I've been using Jerboa, Connect, Liftoff, and Thunder before this, and activity has been slowly increasing over the past few weeks. Sync releases, and activity increased significantly within hours. Also, I have not touched another client since Sync dropped. I appreciate the effort of all of the other developers making Lemmy apps, but Sync is home. Nothing comes close.

I was super excited for my Transformers Legacy Skyquake to arrive today.

It didn't arrive, which is a bummer.

But I get to look forward to getting it tomorrow, and I'm still really excited for it!

I used Linux Mint for several years on a dual-boot laptop. I rarely found myself booting Windows. While there was a learning curve, Mint was fairly accessible out of the box and was generally a delight to use. Until it wasn't. At some point, the drivers for my video card updated, and just flat broke everything. And I can't really use a computer on which I can't see the desktop. I waited. And waited. A fix for the driver may have eventually come, but after awhile, booting into Windows just became my default, until eventually I just wiped the Linux partition to recover the storage space.

It was fun while it lasted, and I may choose one day to give it another go for the fourth time. This wasn't the first time I've had something like this happen. First time was with Fedora, and the second was Ubuntu. Each time, I had the same "it worked until it didn't" experience, and each time it stopped working was usually some kind of broken driver making my hardware incompatible.

While this is true, I'm not sure how the Ewoks were meant to accomplish this. Star Wars toys were already the definitive market success via the action figures, vehicles, and players.

While that Ewok Village playset was certainly popular, it wasn't half as popular as the Falcon or the newly-introduced B-Wing.

I don't think that decision was about marketing toys explicitly. I think it was about skewing the age interest and toy marketing younger, though.
