  • I solved the problem :)

    I solved it by turning "Allow clients to use VPN" on.

    I'm still not sure, what caused the problem, but at least I have internet on my laptop again :)

  • Thanks for the answer, sorry for being so slow at replying.

    I am using a Google Pixel 3.

    I checked the internet and I found some similar stories, but they are somewhat old and contain no fixes :(

    Also, some of them differ slightly from my problem. I can use usb-tethering and it shows up on my computer as "wired connection 1", but still without internet access.

    When I try to ping 8.8.8.8, I get 100% packet loss, even though I'm connected to my phone hotspot.

    Additionally, I can't access hotspot settings on my phone, without the settings app crashing :(

  • I don't think it needs to be shoehorned at all.

    I see this just as a small quality of life improvement of how it already works.

    I think it would actually represent the way Lemmy works better than the way it works now :)

  • I am actually not sure, whether this needs to be fixed in the Lemmy source code or in the mastodon source code.

  • Especially the way communities work on mastodon annoys me. I would love to follow some communities on mastodon, but I've had to unfollow all of them, because the comments take up my entire feed.

    And the comments show up without the context of the original post, so I have to click on the comment, to enter the post thread it is a part of, and then scroll all the way to the top to see the post it is related to.

    Maybe something about activity pub makes it hard to change, but it would be nice if it could be fixed :)

  • "The cartoon was intended to be an exercise in silliness. While I have never met a cow who could make tools, I felt sure that if I did, they (the tools) would lack something in sophistication and resemble the sorry specimens shown in this cartoon. I regret that my fondness for cows, combined with an overactive imagination, may have carried me beyond what is comprehensible to the average Far Side reader." - Larson

    It certainly confused me 😅

  • Why is their logo a traffic cone ? 😅

    I love VLC and use it almost everyday :)

  • The post is not just about calling people derogatory names, it is also about flying a drone with a voice message. When push comes to shove, the voice message is a threat of calling the police. Where are the crackheads going to go now ?

    They have no other place to be. So asking them to leave is just asking them to go to a new place, and then a new place after that and so on, while each day some of them die due to cold, violence and other accumulating factors.

    This is a systematic issue, and we need to fix the system and be compassionate, rather than just push poor people around.

  • I agree, but we should get mad about the root of the problem, not the symptom.

    We should definitely get rid of "crackheadness", but I think we should do it by building a better system and supporting each other.

  • Most people, who call other people "crackheads" have not seen those people take drugs. They use the word because of how the other people look.

    Being called a crackhead more often than not means "looks like a homeless person".

  • Not necessarily, but it is often used as a derogatory word about homeless people.

    Whether it's perfectly synonymous, my point still stands about respecting the humanity of other people

  • What a dehumanizing way to talk about homeless people :/

    People you know, and yourself, could become homeless tomorrow. This dehumanization leads to violence against homeless people.

    They're people too and they deserve a place to be. The solution to homelessness is not just moving them to another side of town, but among other things reducing the cost of apartments and houses.

  • That sounds so nice :)

    I have some friends who are good at sewing too and it is like a superpower. They can just look at something and then produce a replica - it us amazing :)

  • Bread hot out of the oven is such a nice experience 🥰

    I love baking bread too :)

  • I juggle ^^

    I post some of my juggling on mastodon (A recent video here).

    Juggling is so much fun and you can do it everywhere with everything ^^

    There is a circus scene in my city, so there is also a nice community here :)

    I started juggling with balls a couple of years ago, and since then I've explored a lot of different props and styles. It is like an endless sea of creativity :)

    There is also a lot of good tutorials online and you can start by juggling fruits. It has a very low barrier of entry :)

  • Do Not Interact

    On tumblr it could be added to a bio like so "minors DNI" or some other category of people you didn't want interacting with your blog

  • is that a school bus or a regular bus ?

  • from wikipedia:

    "In June 2020, [Dr. Disrespect] was permanently banned from Twitch for then-undisclosed reasons. He returned to streaming on YouTube a month later. In June 2024, former Twitch employees disclosed that his ban was due to sexting with a minor using Twitch's Whisper feature in 2017. Beahm acknowledged the nature of his ban, and characterized the messages as "inappropriate". Following this, YouTube demonetized and suspended his channel from the platform's partner program, and his partnerships were suspended."

    I can't figure out whether he knew it was a minor. If he knew, then it is disgusting :/

  • what kind of platform is odysee ? It calls itself "block-chain based" ?

    It sounds interesting 😅

    I'll give the video a watch later. It is also interesting to see the consequences of Hbomberguys video on plagiarism :)
