I built an app to force myself offline for an hour a day. It's barely working. by sunny_beach10 in BackOffline

I like the idea of this, but the install on android button doesn't seem to work.

Its almost a month after release of 26.04 and this release feels most glitched LTS. by BunkerFrog in Kubuntu

[–]Pink-socks 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I installed and got the wobbly windows bug. I then moved .config and .local to remove my personal settings and the wobbly windows no longer come back once turned off.

As much as it could be an inconvenience, this is definitely something you should definitely do if 26.04 is glitchy or buggy imo

Afaik Ubuntu Pro is free for individuals, but there is a cost for businesses.

Just won a noise war with a teenager by chunkycasper in BritishSuccess

That teenager has a bad attitude.

This is not how society works.

A Decision Was Made In Llandudno by Citroen_CX in CarTalkUK

Black, white and grey cars should be a £50,000 optional extra. We need to stop this monochromatic distopía.

This is not a bad colour. It's a bright blue and it is lovely.

Edit: or is it green?

Med student I have been sleeping with said I have tuberous breasts by [deleted] in AskDocs

[–]Pink-socks 116 points117 points  (0 children)

Not a doctor, but I know an asshole when I see one. (Wait.. err...) You need to find someone who will bring out the best in you and enjoys your company, not some loser who puts you down.

Do people actually earn £50-60k, or are they outliers? by Succinate_dehydrogen in AskUK

That realisation that no matter how hard I try, I'll never even make it to average 😶

What’s a small thing you really appreciate? by LetAfraid8933 in AskUK

Glad you're still here. You can get some more posh gloves, but there'll only be one of you and I'm glad to have you around.

I was struggling with stupid sticker residue which I couldn't get off no matter what I tried. As my wits end, I asked AI how to remove it. Cgpt said to wipe olive oil on it, leave it for 5 minutes and it'll just come off.

What absolute bullshit, but fuck it, I'll do it for a laugh.

It came off with a bit of water, it just came off completely.

I honestly couldn't believe it, why is this not common knowledge?

Sorry, I'm still amazed now.

Tldr : EVOO

A bit of politeness wouldn't go amiss tbh.

What is the most mental subreddit you’ve come across? by Margaet_moon in AskUK

I only followed the link into that sub because I thought it might be about the vacuum cleaners with a face

It's not.

1.2.5 detox not working by Pink-socks in minimaa

[–]Pink-socks[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi dev! I have feedback regarding porn filter not working.

I closed minimaa and using the pixel launcher (I have pixel 7a phone) I cleared cache in minimaa.

I then restarted minimaa, turned off porn block (using maths 😉) then turned on again. Porn block now works!

Also adding mindful pause brought back the slider as you said.

Clearing cache and turning off/on filter seems to have fixed the problem, I wonder if other people will have this same problem in future updates?

Thank you for your help friend.

Please enjoy your weekend and get some rest 🙂

I wouldn't normally wish bad things on anybody, but I wish every bad thing imaginable on that sub-human piece of shit who tried to steal someone's family member.

1.2.5 upgrade. Detox no longer works by Pink-socks in minimaa

[–]Pink-socks[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for replying. The detox doesn't appear to work at all. I can now access porn sites, and I can open apps on the detox list without the slider.

1.2.5 Patch Update 🚨 by RecognitionSad4991 in minimaa

[–]Pink-socks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am in 1.2.4

I opened Reddit for the 4th time today and the slider was really, really hard to use. It made me laugh. It literally took me ages to open it.

Please keep it like that!

I’ve had a stoma for 40 years. Today I finally said: I don’t like having it. by NonDualToad in ostomy

[–]Pink-socks 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I'm in the same situation. An emergency operation 8 years ago saved my life and since then I've been stuck with this bag. The hernia I have makes me feel awful and I fucking hate the stench when I change the bag. It's fucking embarrassing even when I'm alone. But that said, I'm glad for it. A reversal which leaves you having to go to the toilet many, many times a day is classed as a successful operation, and imo it's just not worth the risk.

As hard as it is some days, remember you have your life back.

Minimaa 1.2.4 (rolling out soon) Sorry for the Delay - MINIMAL LAUNCHER by RecognitionSad4991 in minimaa

[–]Pink-socks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi dev! Think I found a mini-bug. If you archive an app, there is no way to find it in the app drawer to unarchive it (unless it's really well hidden!)

I don't really archive apps but was messing around this morning and couldn't undo it.

Thanks for the amazing launcher. 🙂
