I’m not entirely sure what’s you’re trying to imply. But Bangkok is a city in Thailand.

I can really emphasise with Samir. Working in healthcare I’m basically limited to just the Office applications. However in the past few years I’ve been able to cook up solutions by reading / writing to file based databases, and using VBA to generate and bind to HTML contents on the fly for the built in IE11 instance. It’s as close to getting to some kind of web-stack within the confines of IT Sec in healthcare.

You can also apply it when watching a YouTube video by appending “&wadsworth=1” to the url.

When this saga began, I didn't think I'd be struggling with such a sense of disconnect with the loss of an app of all things. However, I do feel that Christian's eulogy for Apollo helped, a gentle reminder to "smile because it happened". Here's to moving on.

If you miss the UI of Apollo, give wefwef a go. Add it to your Home Screen from Safari, and it’s pretty close as it gets to Apollo for Lemmy.

Interestingly the $/£5 YouTube app being referenced in the article was whipped up by Christian, the dev of Apollo for Reddit. A post on his website details how’s he managed to get a relatively custom UI and video player using what appears to be browser extensions and the YouTube public API.

Non- tech: I’m a psychiatrist, generally working with offenders in hospital and prisons. The clinical work is always interesting, and im usually thankful for openness at which people spill their life stories to me.

Tech: I’ve kinda thought myself software development since I started working as a doctor. There’s just too much inefficiencies in the way we work clinically day-to-day due to the sheer amount of defensive practice inherent in the health system. Started off with personal tools to “assist” the electronic systems in place. But since then I’ve launched and maintained a number of digital clinical tools in a few local hospital which I’m pretty proud of.

Have a look at the communities in the instance infosec.pub.

Hey @[email protected], just wanted to say thanks for one more smile. May RIF is Fun RIP in Peace.

Now that’s a prickly little fella

I feel you. Working in healthcare, ms office is the only thing consistently installed site wide I can take advantage of to run a db.

I think ultimately it depends on what your use case is. Comparing Apollo to any web version of Reddit, there were already a few use cases which were definitely superior in my view:

• the video / gif player with supports scrubbing by touch.
• packaging comment chains into screenshots to share, with automated features like blurring usernames, selecting depth of parent / child comments to include, merging with post content
• being able to "favourite" a sub without actually subscribing
• hiding posts that you've already seen

Ultimately, as with any tool, the best tool is the one you have on you.

Eating bitterness (吃苦） is a phrase that really brings me back to my time growing up in east Asia. However it seems older generations believing their offspring are too weak / spoilt to handle what they themselves have gone through appears to be a pretty universal thing.

He looks ready to close shop, and is glaring at you to “encourage” you to move along.

That shade of blue looks sick. Like a sickly sick.

I feel like the developer should actually get some legal advice. In the U.K., “the crown” does not refer to the monarchy, but some legal entity that might as well be the state.

I found it interesting how my initial interpretation of the lack of blood was some sign of invulnerability / strength. I guess that fits with the religious theme of it.

You’ve probably heard this mentioned loads, but if you like Apollo, visit wefwef.app. Wefwef is an alternate Lemmy UI that is essentially an Apollo clone for Lemmy.

Time to use another search provider, lest you want Google to be recommending body parts for sale in your search results for the foreseeable future.

I've been running the 0.18 docker build since it was released. Just took a look and it's CPU usage has remained <3% on load since the release. Admittedly my instance has only a handful of users, but it might be worth upgrading to 0.18?
