    Same as the above, this right here is what I’d recommend: vinegar. I actually have been adding vinegar for years to my workout laundry, and there’s been no stink. I can’t use anything like softener or detergents that aren’t “free” and “clear” due to skin allergies, so my options are pretty limited otherwise.

    This is both cool and scary.

    A few years ago, I was walking my dog at night just after sunset and looked up as I normally do to star gaze. My eyes caught a glimpse of a fast moving dot moving across the sky. I was getting the ISS reminders at the time and had none for the day, so I opened up Sky Guide and used the gyro feature to identify it. The dot happened to be an old Soviet rocket from the 1950s.

    This opened up a different way of thinking about how much we’re tossing into the sky, and if objects are still floating by some 70 years later, what will our sky look like in another 70 with the accelerated launches we have today.

    The advancements we’ve made as a human race is amazing, but quite scary at the same time.

  • [announcement] this is officially the worst Lemmy app (at least for Markdown rendering)

    I just want to say that I miss your app. I’ve reported some issues in the past for Raccoon, to which you quickly addressed, but then I found myself moving from Android to iOS.

    Not a day goes by where I’m reminded that Raccoon was the best lemmy app for me. It delivered the best features I liked from other apps and put it into a package developed by a friendly and highly responsive developer.

    That said, I saw the post you mention yesterday, and even though your app is at the bottom, truth be told, I never noticed the issues with markdown that is being called out. In fact, I think the largest issue with almost all the apps I’ve tried are the way media is handled. Each dev has their vision on how to embed images, gifs and videos, but almost none of them do it well or in a user friendly way.

    Regardless of your choice on how to proceed, there are people here who enjoy your app, care enough about your app to want to help make it better, and I hope that if I ever find myself using Android again, that Raccoon still exists (or you make an iOS version lol).

    Thank you!

  • Traveling this summer? Maybe don’t let the airport scan your face.

    Clear is now a TSA “vendor” for the precheck process. The machines they use for the sign up process - at least the airport I was at - don’t have the eye scanning camera in the kiosk.

    The Clear representative I was asking questions of had said they don’t require eye scans for Clear, though that is the default. People can ask to use just fingerprints, which he said does disrupt the terminal process as the agents don’t think to ask if fingerprints were what was registered when the eye scans fail.

    I am not advocating for Clear. I refuse to use them. I simply do want to call out that they are one of 3 who handle the process for the TSA now. People do have a choice of which of the three to use.

    The size and color make me think “black footed yellow sac spider”, a.k.a. Cheiracanthium Inclusum, but those aren’t known to jump. They can be quick runners though.

    I’ve just been enjoying the 84F/29C day and sipping gin & tonics all day. Started with Sipsmith as the gin, but I emptied that bottle and finished with Hendrick’s Flora Adora.

    I already canceled them when they decided to alter my already-paid-for subscription by introducing ads. This move will guarantee I’ll never resubscribe.

    TV on the Radio - Wolf Like Me (2006)
    Movie lines people laughed at in theaters despite not actually being intended to be funny?

    I was a Radioman in the Navy, and some coworkers and I had gone to see Cider House Rules in the theater.

    There's a scene where they come to inform someone that a plane with a loved one on board had been shot down.

    To quote the movie:

    When the plane was hit, the crew chief and the radioman jumped close together. The copilot jumped third.

    We immediately started laughing when we heard that, because we were told that the Radiomen are some of the last to leave a sinking ship due to needing to destroy the cryptographic material. Hearing that a Radioman was one of the first to bail was too good to us..

    Absolutely! I did this with Ridge Racer on the PS1. I tossed in Nirvana's Bleach album, and Love Buzz lined up near perfect with one of the game's track numbers.

    I used to on my PS1 and Saturn. Actually, the first CD I ever purchased was Nirvana's Nevermind, and the first CD player I had to play that on was the Sega CD.

    Did you install Spotify from the Aurora Store? A requirement of AA on Graphene is that apps need to be installed from the play store for them to show up. If they were installed from f-droid or Obtanium, they won't be visible. I am not sure if apps installed from Aurora Store will appear in AA also, but its a possibility they don't.
