    That was exiting and the final point couldn't have been better even if scripted. :)

    They will never let people disable it, that would completely defeat the purpose. You already have to allow the installation of apps outside the play store, so adding just one more toggle to deactivate it wouldn't make sense.

    This will be such a blow to the independent application ecosystem. Even if custom roms could disable it, the userbase of independent apps would shrink to a point where most developers wouldn't bother with it anymore.

    I hate the timeline we are currently in.

    I can't, only previous members can I assume. At least I don't have any invites, since I just got invited myself.

    Still rocking my 4a. I refuse to give up a perfectly working phone and spend money on a new one that pretty much does exactly the same. The size of available phones is also a big factor tho.

    Pretty much yes. I am not even sure you can federate with bluesky yet. I think they will open that up later and then you can start up a "bluesky" server and federate with the main one. Or you can build your own application as well of course.

    No, those are two different networks. Bluesky doesn't use the same protocol as mastodon, which is the one Threads is gonna be using.

    I am interested in the topic of the video but I really really don't like the production. Way too flashy with overly dramatic music, text popping in everywhere and really hectic camera movement.

    Not sure you are interested in something like this at all cause this genre it's definitely not for everyone.

    The game is called Torn City and games like it are called "idlegames". :) Usually the game loop is super relaxed. You can hop into the game a couple times a day, do some things, and hop out again. You play it fully in a web browser as well, so nothing to download.

    Here is a quick teaser video.

    And here a player made video which at the very least should give you an idea what to expect.

    This game is a very long term games, where so in game actions and progression takes literally years to complete.

    Let me know what you think and if you even try it.

    I never actually tried the ones that are already mixed. I like the powder more so you can prepare it exactly as you wish.

    There are a lot of different companies who offer these food replacement products. Some even have non sweet variants, which I always wanted to try. I have no experience with those tho but I will probably test it some day. jimmyjoy.com or huel.com are two of them in case you want to check them out.

    They officially suggest for Queal Standard: 5 scoops/167 g with 350 ml water. Personally I can't eat that much for health reasons, so I only use 3 scoops. Personally I don't like replacing my lunch with just a drink, so I prefer more solid food. For this reason I prepare it in a small bowl.

    Usually I do it like this.

    • 2 scoops of chocolate in one bowl
    • Stir it with a spoon until it's fully mixed
    • 1 scoop of vanilla in an other bowl and stir it as well.
    • Put bowl 1 in the microwave for 4-5 minutes until it has a pudding like consistency
    • Add the vanilla mix to the choco mix and put it in the microwave again for 3-4 minutes.
    • After that add freshly cut banana, some raisins and nuts to it.
    • It's amazing prepared like that and doesn't feel like a drink at all anymore.

    When I am lazy I prepare it like a drink as well sometimes. It's just quicker and takes just like 2mins. I would suggest to prepare it an hour before consumption tho and let it sit in the refrigerator until you eat it.

    No it's not "open source" it's "source available". If you care have a look at this blog post that explains the problem. https://hiphish.github.io/blog/2023/10/18/grayjay-is-not-open-source/

    Yes, it's open source
