Huh, so my app is now making me go to "New " app... with ads. No thanks. Is the way? Looking for advice.

@thunderbird @igaraba So, setting my accounts and calendars... no major issues so far. Still, it seems like doesn't like to play along when importing calendars or address books? Seems like I had to jump a few hoops to get some things working.

@thunderbird @igaraba I mainly used the instructions shared here: https://frightanic.com/apple-mac/thunderbird-icloud-calendar-sync/ . It wasn't too difficult but had to enter my iCloud calendars one by one (glad I only have the defaults).

@thunderbird @igaraba thanks! Will check it out

I read somewhere, possibly here, that someone was using the #Journal #iOS as his/her “personal social network”. And that’s actually spot on. Sometimes I post something in #Mastodon because I want to share it and get feedback, and sometimes I just want to write down my thoughts without thinking about who reads it, if any. The app seems like a perfect fit for that latter functionality. Can I share from #Journal to here, btw? I will check and update here.

@afreytes I did exactly the same thing. Unfortunately, I succumbed to #Whatsapp because honestly #Signal usage around my friends was negligible. I now use iMessage and WhatsApp for the same purpose. What I miss the most is Signal on iPad; WA doesn’t have that capability yet.

@BlueBlasphemy @EighthLayer you should keep at it. It’s worth it. I loved it.

My highlights of 2023

All images taken from my driveway near Tucson, Arizona; except for the eclipse which was on a trip to Roswell, New Mexico.

Hey , I have an RTX 2070 Super and since I'm a Linux gamer 98% of the time, I've been thinking about going team red. I found a dude who might be down to trade me a Radeon VII for my 2070S... is that a good deal or a bad deal?

Linux compatibility should be way better, and it seems like performance is comparable, but idk about raytracing performance and I've heard the R VII can be pretty loud.

Opinions? Advice?

astromecanik,
@astromecanik@mastodon.online avatar

@ADHDefy I understand that the R VII is somewhat worse than a 2070S. Something along the 5700XT would be more comparable.

Trump finally has a mugshot & has been made to post bail — standard practice for criminal defendants that he's been spared up till now.

His defenders who complain about a "two-tiered" justice system are half right. There's one for the rich & powerful and one for everyone else.

Work in Progress! This is the beautiful Helix Nebula, sometimes referred to as the "Eye of God". This is the only planetary nebula I can reasonably capture with my widefield scope. It is very low in the night sky, rising to only 27 degrees above the horizon from my location but I was able to get almost 4 hours on it. I will add more time over the next month to bring out the finer details. Off to a great start!

Rare case of green hairy tongue is pure nightmare fuel

The man fully recovered after extra tongue brushing. But you might not.

Mastodon users, what's the best way to add/remove people from a given list? So far I've discovered going to their profile and adding them manually. Is there a faster way?

astromecanik,
@astromecanik@mastodon.online avatar

@timelordiroh is there a way to add/remove a person from a list directly from the timeline?

astromecanik,
@astromecanik@mastodon.online avatar

@timelordiroh thanks! I didn't understand it the first time you mentioned it

Might as well test out this Threads thingy… https://threads.net/@gaming0nlinux

So far though it’s super basic and there’s only an algorithm feed so it’s a bit gross.

@astromecanik@mastodon.online avatar

@gamingonlinux nah, I’ll pass. I can follow you here, but won’t follow you over there. I won’t promote that app.

Having a blast playing #X4Foundations. I haven’t played a game quite like it. Comparisons to #EliteDangerous doesn’t paint a complete picture; it more like a cross of ED with a bit of #Stellaris. Last night I was completing a mission while one of my other AI-controller ships completed another unrelated mission! All while my mining ship was making me passive income. I am thrilled.

@peterdrake I’m a console player by history, so switching to kb&m was kind of slow. YMMV. Other than that, there’s a few tutorials that help you understand the ship controls and how to do a few things, but tbh, this kind of game is too complex to get all the mechanics covered in the tutorials. I have had to search for lots of stuff online, but so far it has not been overly difficult. That being said, again, this is a complex sim, so you’ll have to figure stuff out.
