MSugarhill , to android in What's your favorite alternate launcher?

Nova Launcher Prime. The only one I stuck too, and never managed to leave.

If you’re from somewhere not covered in this thread and inexplicably wish to speak to your neighbours, try just chucking your city name or whatever into lemmyverse.net/communities

On , to android in What's your favorite alternate launcher?
@On@kbin.social avatar

Neo launcher for me. it's on fdroid.

it's not perfect and can get buggy, but once you set it up, and don't mess with the settings too much. it's acceptable replacement for Nova launcher.

Had nova prime, but switched after the buyout

j4k3 , to askscience in How is the moon tidally locked?
@j4k3@lemmy.world avatar

To really blow your mind, the Moon is slowly moving away, but will never escape. Eventually both the Earth and the Moon will become tidally locked to each other at which point the Moon will no longer move further away. This assumes no outside influences and enough time.

withersailor , to showerthoughts in Winter is perhaps the only time you can successfully invade Russia. Hitler and Napoleon invaded in the summer and failed. The Mongols invaded in the winter and won.

How’d that work out for Napoleon and Hitler, just to name a couple.

Found: www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Invasion_of_Russia

But can’t be arsed working out which started in winter vs which where destroyed by winter.

jasparagus , to askscience in How is the moon tidally locked?

Here’s a good explainer:

What is tidal locking? phys.org/news/2015-11-tidal.html

Basically, the moon acted like a spinning (unbalanced) wheel, and eventually stopped with the “heavy” side pointing “down” towards Earth. I.e. think of the moon as orbiting Earth with the heavy side staying pointed at Earth.

  • I am not going on a hiking trip or mailing myself anywhere.

Sure sounds like something someone who’s going to mail himself somewhere would say.

mrh , to piracy in Is a VPN necessary for torrenting?

Alternatively if price is an issue (NEVER use a “free” VPN) you could torrent over I2P, which is free and very safe (at least as safe as tor, if not moreso).

Also the next release of qbittorrent is about to have built in I2P support (but also standard I2P comes with its own torrenting software).

Are you, by any chance in a submarine?

FaeDine , to piracy in Is a VPN necessary for torrenting?

I’ve always seen this as a question of risk. What you’re asking is the digital equivalent to “Do I really need to wear my seatbelt when driving?”

You can drive around your car two hours a day, every day, without a seatbelt, and be fine for years. You can say you live in a calm neighborhood and say no one ever drives recklessly there. Everyone is still going to tell you to always wear your seatbelt.

You can be very careful about what you torrent. You could possibly torrent lots of things with no problems at all. All it takes is one person at one other endpoint grabbing your IP from one torrent and reporting, to cause a lot of problems.

It’s up to you if you want to take that risk, but when you’re asking for advice no one is ever going to tell you that you don’t need one, and if they are they’re probably giving bad advice. There are enough horror stories that many don’t think it’s worth the risk.

vacuumfountain , to showerthoughts in It's quite handy that ice floats for summer drinks
@vacuumfountain@startrek.website avatar

It’s even more important than your drink! The fact that I’ve floats is what allows ice to act as an insulator on top of frozen lakes and oceans. If it sank, liquid water would take its place and freeze. After a while the whole body of water would be frozen.
