I waddled onto the beach and stole found a computer to use.

otter,

When I start up, I right click on a folder and ā€œopen all in new tabsā€

Then shift click to pin them again. Makes it easier to restart when I need to

otter,

Which generation leaves them open/closed?

I havenā€™t noticed a pattern, but I also havenā€™t really explored

otter,

Interesting

I think my whole family uses few tabs. For me, once I canā€™t read the titles easily, I start splitting them into separate windows and virtual desktops. Once I finish a task associated with a window I close it

Itā€™s so nice when I can restart the browser clean

otter,

Same

Although our instances give that away

What phone do you sugest for your grandparents?

I got a task to buy a smart phone for my grandparents, they are not techsavy but they know how to use basic functions. Iam looking for an andoid because it has language pack i need. I dont need it to have lots of functions, onley a good camera and a big screen. Bonus points if it can be flashed with some kind of simplefied...

otter,

Thatā€™s a great point, uBlock Origin helps a lot with scams on desktop.

I agree to disagree

I should also point out that I havenā€™t tried GrapheneOS and canā€™t judge what the differences might be, so Iā€™ll go with your experience on this :)

otter, (edited )

The problem is that other people will be unfamiliar with it. Unless OP can be the support person all the time, the grandparents may want to get help from someone else.

Keeping things stock is helpful for that, and I feel like Google Pixel is already simple enough. Just disable things like assistant during setup or in settings.

Maybe not during the surgery, but itā€™s pretty normal to do some review before a surgery that hasnā€™t been done recently.

In the past theyā€™d skim the books, but videos provide additional insight nowadays. A lot of those videos are published on YouTube

So it feels weird, but itā€™s not. Youā€™re (most likely) in great hands

otter,

You joke but a doctor recently got her license revoked for it

otter,

Is it possible you tried Keepass? I thought Bitwardenā€™s UI was pretty good and modern, and thatā€™s one of the silly reasons why I picked it over keepass long time ago

otter,

Iā€™m not your target for the question, since I havenā€™t ever tried Unlimited

Bitwarden is very solid for a password manager, and it works well for my family

You could compare prices between just ProtonMail+Bitwarden (or other manager)+VPN of choice?

otter,

Alternate link for clients that donā€™t support that one:

Link

otter,

Oh a moth makes sense! I hadnā€™t thought of that

otter,

This one got an audible laugh, itā€™s so simple but so good

otter,

Ohh

Iā€™d probably remove it but itā€™s pretty borderline

otter,

Easier to just report it

otter,

This works, but the formats are ancient

If it could pull from knowyourmeme or imgflip.com/memetemplates?sort=top-new, with an API of some kind, that would help a lot

The user can download the format they want

I think intent plays a role here. If the goal is to incite a reaction or to hurt a population by publicly burning something that they care about, itā€™s probably not a great to do

One of those things where you know when you see it, but itā€™s hard to define explicitly.

If anything, it might help as a temporary measure to reduce tensions and inflammatory incidents

otter,

Fleming did not provide Bondā€™s date of birth, but John Pearsonā€™s fictional biography of Bond, James Bond: The Authorized Biography of 007, gives Bond a birth date on 11 November 1920,[13] while a study by John Griswold puts the date at 11 November 1921

Huh, learned something too!

otter,

Also in the future, consider using one of the linked communities in the sidebar instead of this one.

ex. !newToLemmy

otter,

Can also ask in

!patientgamers

!patientgamers

otter,

Please donā€™t use asklemmy as a support community, it fills it with spam

Try !newtolemmy or !lemmy, or one of the other links in the sidebar

Is "Error rate limit" a Lemmy or a Connect or an instance thing?

Iā€™m trying to make posts. Iā€™ve got an image hosted on catbox, so Iā€™m posting only text and links. Most days I can make about 4 before I get that error. (I save my posts for when I have time.) Today, I got it after the first one. Is this a Lemmy thing, or Connect, or my instance or the instance Iā€™m posting on?...

otter,

Possibly instance? I post a LOT of stuff in a short amount of time, usually I sit down and post a set of links / text posts and itā€™s fine.

Could you make an account on another instance and try to post the same way?

otter,

People have said that the new scaled sort coming with Lemmy v0.19 should help with that
