Moin!

Bin zwar Deutscher aber wohne schon seit 17 Jahren im Ausland. In den letzten 5 Jahren war ich gar nicht mehr zurück, von einer kurzen Dienstreise mal abgesehen, wo ich aber nix privat unternommen hab.

Jetzt werd ich aber nächste Woche endlich mal wieder privater Natur zurückkommen, und mit meiner Frau, die noch nie in der EU war, unter anderem auch DE bereisen.

Gibt es insbesondere seit covid neue must-have apps?

Danke!

So I'm actually German but haven't been back home in 5+ years, except for a short business trip where I didn't really do all that much.

Now I'm going back for a few weeks almost exclusively for touristy purposes (my wife has never been to the EU), and I'm wondering what's really changed / what is considered must-haves these days?

Only tangentially related to China, but since most users will have Astrill, I thought I might as well check with you.

Since this morning I can only see a bunch of US servers, plus a handful of EU ones - it's like the list was cut down by 50% or more. And the remaining servers are all not-starred, i.e. don't permit torrents.

Stealth got all the options still, but using stealth on mobile somehow blocks wechat (despite smart mode being enabled), and that sucks.

Could someone confirm my observation before I open a ticket with Astrill?

Edit: On Desktop (Windows) I still get all servers in OpenWEB.

Edit 2: The servers appear to be mostly back, but are now missing the star marking them to be torrent accessible.

Was seriously one of the friendliest subs over on the platform which shall not be named, would be nice to see some familiar faces returning, or a new community of equal qualities forming over here.

Hi all,

Currently looking for a gift for someone who actively enjoys capsule coffee and won't deviate from this disgraceful life choice.

So now I want to gift him something coffee related without being (a) capsules or (b) an alternative coffee maker.

Other than the usual (milk foamer, cups, literature), do you have any creative ideas?

Any quick questions that don't justify their own thread? Post them here!

I just can't wait to get the first working version on my phone. Literally grinning like an idiot just now.

Quite like the development of Jerboa as it stands, but I found the icon of the app to be a bit uninspired (and personally I need to have a dark background so stuff doesn't stand out too much).

Anyway, I got some time on hand last night and prompted DALL-E to create some Jerboa-inspired icons, and after going through dozens and dozens of iterations, prompts and refinements, I was left with 5 that I really like, cleaned them up and tuned them a bit in Photoshop this morning, and here we are:

Now I have no clue what that means in terms of licensing and whatnot. I'm explicitly posting them with no strings attached from my end, but can't tell if any underlying licenses still apply regardless.

Wondering which beans, grind size, water to coffee ratio and extraction times you are using?

And temperature, if that's anything specific.

Time to claim some bragging rights, show off your equipment if you dare!

Bunch of sites are streaming the sinking ship in real time:

Here's my favorite: https://www.twitch.tv/rawreporting

Let's see what the next 48h are gonna bring... My guess? Not much, and we'll just keep moving forward. Screw them.

For some reason most /c/links will open in browser rather than in the app. I can go to app info -> open by default and select a bunch of instances, but am unable to add any myself (despite there being an "add link" text, but I'm unable to click it).

Is there any solution to that?

Please continue using a VPN when visiting this channel, or using Lemmy in general.

Most - if not all - sites are not blocked and can be reached freely, but that also means your ISP can keep tabs on you.

To get the community going, what's your favourite way of preparing coffee? Any tools you can't do without?
