Interesting facts about pirates? in c/[email protected]

So imagine you're working for a real slave driver

And at least in most of the nations' navies, your life as a grunt was pretty much like that. Dragged into service by press gangs and treated like shit.

Leaving Porto Santo (lemmy.world)
 

After two months on Porto Santo it's time to head to the Canary Islands.

Is anyone living aboard or actively cruising? in c/[email protected]

Since May this year. Currently on Porto Santo / Madeira. Heading to Canary Islands in October.

Windy.com

Probably with UKV as the main forecast model to check. Should definitely compare the other models as well to get a clearer picture of what to expect.

Left the engine on the boat and sailed my dinghy to shore today for a grocery run.

Yep. While reading this I opened the camera to take one picture, came right back and Liftoff was back at the top of the feed...

How do you fight the temptation to not look at your phone or other electronic devices after going to bed? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

If turning it off or leaving it in another room isn't an option, you could let a podcast lull you to sleep.

I like to listen to The Unbelievable Truth for example. Relatively quiet, not demanding enough focus to keep you awake, but requires some attention so that if you're doing something else on your phone you're going miss what's going on.
Usually takes me a couple of nights to get through one ~20min episode.

Drop down menus, context menus should appear at the button triggering them (lemmy.world)
 

No idea who came up and popularized this UX crime but this isn't the first app I've come across that opens all or most of the dropdown and context menus from the bottom of the screen. Causing a complete disconnect from the action triggering the menu.

Really hope this gets fixed as I quite enjoy this one out of the currently available lemmy apps.

What's your email client of choice? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I'm clinging to BlackBerry Hub+ because unfortunately I have not yet found an alternative that does the multi inbox (+ texts, signal, ...) on the same level.
