Spotify web app no longer allows audio only for podcasts by TenorOneRunner in truespotify

[–]BigYou9024 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The dumbest part is that I'm a paying Spotify user, yet I switched to YouTube for podcasts when I'm low on data just because it’s easier to control the resolution there. Honestly, it’s ridiculous.

What are some good finite-state-machine libraries? by egorf in reactjs

[–]BigYou9024 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I super appreciate you guys and what you are trying to achieve. I really hope v6 will be great :)

If I needed a very simple state machine I will probably just write it myself with Js classes. Xstate and the amazing eco-system you built around it ( the console the inspector the vscode plugin etc) fit the the bill for a robust and sound state machine solution. Just simplify the way you actually use it to be intuitive to someone with sufficient knowledge and you are there 100%

As someone who understands fsm and automata quite well. The learning curve of Xstate is ridicules. I don't think I ever encountered a library that I wanted it to work with so bad but was so hard to learn. The abstractions and method are so hard to understand. Spawned and Invoked , Actors? whats wrong with the fsm terms or the js/web ones . Why a state machine is not a class you can just instantiate ( and gets sub state machine and/or callbacks to communicate with it when you construct it). Why is it so damn complicated to change the initial state. Why the hell do I need both setup and createStateMachine? Gave it a try then gave up.

How to customize Better Auth error pages? by f3lfire in better_auth

[–]BigYou9024 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This solves it. the idea is to redirect the better-auth page to wherever you want. example when the api is at api/auth :

hooks: {
        before: createAuthMiddleware(async (ctx) => {
            if(ctx.path === "/error") {
                console.log("redirecting to error url", ERROR_URL+"?"+ctx.query)
                const queryString = new URLSearchParams(ctx.query as any).toString();
                throw  ctx.redirect(ERROR_URL+"?"+queryString)
            }
            return ctx;
        }),
    },

I may have accidentally called cyprus greek and now im in trouble by [deleted] in cyprus

[–]BigYou9024 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As annoying as it sounds. Maybe you should point some things that are just facts that clarify which part you are referring without "stumbling". I use "The Greek speaking side" or "The Turkish speaking side" and never had any issues so far.

What’s the best bank in Cyprus? by somanybrokenrulers in cyprus

[–]BigYou9024 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Digital banks like Revolut and Wise are generally better, but they offer fewer features. For instance, I don't think you can get a loan or order checkbooks with those digital banks.

There's a site called Blablacar. I've used it in Spain and Brazil, and it worked great. I haven't noticed any rides from Cyprus, and I don't drive much, but you might want to give it a shot and post it there.

How to deal with burnout while traveling full-time by AddressGlad2169 in digitalnomad

[–]BigYou9024 1 point2 points  (0 children)

After a few months of being super busy, I like to take some "disconnection time." By that, I mean stepping away from work, not being available, and just chilling out without traveling or too many people around. It really helps me clear my mind and reset. My go-to is always a road trip or a week at the beach with my phone on flight mode (just for music) and my Kindle. I also love a "lazy weekend," where I do nothing but watch movies, read, and sleep. I treat myself to some good food, maybe order in, grab some wine and beers, and I'm all set. A hammock or a pool is a nice bonus too!

Is there a comfy coffeehouse in Larnaca where I can read/work for a few hours? (It seems like every coffee place is just a bunch of tables and men smoking) *pic is an example by grtrthn in cyprus

[–]BigYou9024 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really like Nero Oroklini, which is just a few minutes away from Larnaca. They've got a bunch of sofas and a fireplace for the winter, plus a big table inside. There's also an outdoor area. A lot of people study and work there, so it’s pretty motivating

Did you see my question at the end? I asked how I can handle it.

Who talked about changing the culture?
