Indicating on roundabouts

I was always under the impression that on a “normal" 4 exit roundabout (i.e. two roads crossing), you would indicate left if going left, right if going right, and no indication if going straight on. Then whichever way you’re going you indicate left when passing the exit before. However, a number of drivers indicate right...

How exactly do Matrix bridges work? Are they secure?

What I’m looking for ultimately is a universal chat type app like Beeper that can handle Signal and SMS, however, reading this about it gives me pause. It would be nice if I could get all my peeps on matrix, but since it was so hard to get them on to Signal, I think the best I can hope for is something than can handle matrix,...

Facebook tracking via logged out Rift VR app

Well duh you might say but I usually have a policy of no Facebook-related apps at all on my phone. Not long ago however I purchased a Occulus Rift headset for my kids and at some point installed the app for it on my phone. I never logged into it and ran it once but didn’t go further than that, eventually using my daughter’s...

Media Room Cooling Options

Any suggestions on how I could better cool my media room? It’s a small closet spaced room that has a vent from under the house and a ceiling vent (like you’d have in a bathroom). I have sealed off the door so that when the ceiling vent runs, it draws air from under the house as that’s cooler. This tends to work until...

I uninstalled the Google App from my phone using SD Maid. The custom rom I use(EvolutionX) does have launcher3 as its default(basically identical to Pixel...

Reading paywalled articles using free software

If I want to read washingtonpost.com/…/post-american-world-is-now-f…, I have to use archive.vn which allows me to go past the paywall (archive.vn/yTP0x). However, archive.vn is still proprietary so I installed ArchiveBox which is free software but does not go past the paywall. Does anyone have any solutions?

Why do each of my accounts have different subscription lists?

When I joined the fediverse I thought I’d have an easier time moving between lemmy platforms. So far I have to create a new username/password on each instance and subscribe to all the things I want to on that new account. I kinda wish I can carry my lemmy user to other platforms more easily....

Fediverse equivalent use of TikTok/Instagram/Twitter for short video sharing..need tips on use/platforms/formats

I’ve been loving Lemmy and mastodon and feel they are coming along as good replacements for Reddit and Twitter. Outside the fediverse, I occasionally enjoy posting dumb little video shorts and I put them on TikTok, Facebook and Insta because I have friends, family and followers on each. (TikTok, Gen-Z, my daughter…Facebook,...
