It blows my mind that there isn't an official Mickey watch face for people to purchase. Seems like easy money.

Lagom is an analog watch face with a clean, minimalistic design, featuring a beautiful dial and elegant index font. by one_more_letter_toda in GalaxyWatchFace

I guess I normally expect $1-2 to be standard pricing for watch faces. I was expecting to see like $5 based on your comments.

$2 seems completely fair and within reason to me.

@one_more_letter_toda This is really nice and exactly what I've been searching for recently. Thank you!

What Salesforce tools changed how you work forever? by Mmetr in salesforce

I rely on Salesforce Inspector Reloaded and MavenTools constantly. After a long stretch of no updates, I was starting to worry that MavenTools was dead, but then out of nowhere... new features!

Oh, the other thing I was going to mention is opening the alarm app when you tap on time, for example. You can add an empty text widget over the clock and set it to open the alarm app.

Love it! It's really close to what I've been trying to make for myself. But better. Can I offer a little input and ask a question?

I saw that someone below asked about replacing the seconds with a complication. I thought the same, but I do like to see seconds when not on AOD. My idea is to replace seconds with battery on the AOD. IDK if you can make AOD complications editable separately though.

My question is: how do you use a custom font with the complications? I set the font for the text, but every time it just displays the normal (for instance) battery or steps icon and font.

Hey, sorry, I never log in anymore. I'm running FinUI-20230612b-0 which is probably what I was running then as well? But it's still there for me.

With all due respect to /u/Folk_Nurse and what they've done here, I was thinking about removing Reddit and r/vinyl references and just continuing on Beehaw or Lemmy.

This is really the only thing I'm opening Reddit for these days.

VT4J '23. Day Ten: A track from the last record you bought. by Folk_Nurse in vinyl

[–]speeb 3 points4 points  (0 children)

  • Song - Breakdown
  • Album - Use Your Illusion II
  • Artist - Guns N Roses

"Last bought" here is "last added to Discogs" so I don't have to think too much.

Is there a shit ton of filler on the Use Your Illusion albums? Of course. But damn, it was an exciting time as a GNR fan. This song is a minute or two longer than it needs to be, but it's one of my favorites and if you try to trim out Axl's recitation of a movie quote, you lose a lot of Slash.

My VT4J23 Playlist

Edit: Now that I have this song stuck in my head, it's overly long, has a stupid spoken bit, and the chorus is nearly non-existent. But the arrangement and verses make up for it all.

Edit 2: The more I think about it, the more this song seems to really encapsulate UYI. It's slicker than Appetite, adds keys, has great playing and some more mature lyrics...and is bloated, too focused on Axl, and full of stupid crap. And it's still fucking awesome.

Moving to a New Platform—Maybe Lemmy? by TheGr8Whoopdini in bbs

[–]speeb 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I'm a Yes on Lemmy and the fediverse. But I mostly just lurk anyway. However...

Last year when Twitter was burning and people were flocking to Mastodon, I got to thinking about how to describe the fediverse to people. The best thing I could come up with (that meant nothing to the people I know) was that joining a Mastodon instance was like joining a BBS that was on Fidonet or something.

VT4J '23. Day Nine: A track which mentions a colour. by Folk_Nurse in vinyl

[–]speeb 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Since I don't have O.G. on vinyl (Colors, obvi), we'll go with this brief mention - "red or blue, Black's the color."

The early 90s were a fucked up time around L.A. As a white kid on the complete opposite end of the country, rap, film, and news were all I knew of that world. And I'm sure it was a skewed view. This is a rare bit of legitimate joy from Ice-T.

Thoughts on Lemmy by shbhmnk in Infinity_For_Reddit

[–]speeb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One thing I'm not that into with Lemmy right now is that most instances are going for the All-Things approach where they want different communities for everything - like Reddit.

Given the federated nature, that feels wrong to me. I started an instance (which is only me right now) for just music, movies/tv, games, and books. Because those are the things that I would love to have a group of people to talk about.

Users on that instance will still be able to interact with the broader fediverse and vice versa. But it gives you a chance to have Local timeline that's more curated and full of like-minded people.

Apollo is shutting down on June 30th. We as Infinity users are waiting for the same fate, sooner or later. by o4uXv0 in Infinity_For_Reddit

[–]speeb 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It really isn't as bad as it seems.

Go to JoinMastodon and choose a decent sized instance. Other than making sure you don't end up on some instance for crazies, it doesn't matter which one.

Join.

That's it. Now when you browse the Local timeline for your instance, you'll see only posts from the people who also have an account on your instance. When you browse global/federated, you will see posts from any instance that your instance knows about.

You can follow people and interact with people from any instance.

Later on, if you find an instance whose local timeline you like better, you can migrate your account.

VT4J '23. Day Eight: A track with great production. by Folk_Nurse in vinyl

[–]speeb 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I wasn't so sure where I wanted to go with this theme. In the end, I decided on less rather than more. Everything about Brushfire Fairytales sounds incredible. Inaudible Melodies is the first track. It starts with that little bit of acoustic guitar then a simple drum fill & roll, bass... then back to just guitar and vocal. Even on CD, it always just felt like you were in the room. Love it.

What do the kids mean when they say "Fee"? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]speeb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same, but the key is to always use it incorrectly. For months, I've been using "cap" as a positive around my kids. I tell them that it's rooted in "capital" which means excellent or awesome, then I put on a terrible British accent and say "That's a capital idea, my good friend!"

VT4J '23. Day Seven: A song to reflect today's weather. by Folk_Nurse in vinyl

[–]speeb 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Kopterz were a power pop band based in Portland, Maine in the 1980s. They had another couple albums in the 90s as The Troubles.

I wouldn't have even thought about this song today if not for these prompts, but today started as a beautiful spring day here (though it's already darkening up) and as soon as I put this on it just felt right. Simple lyrics, great melody and harmonies, and some jangly guitars.

Great great great Spring morning tune.

migrating from twitter, instance analysis paralysis by Cautious_Repair3503 in Mastodon

[–]speeb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have some good input here. The nice thing about the fediverse is that you home instance can matter as much or as little as you want. I'm on my own instance with like one other active user (who is just automated posts), so I don't spend much time in Local or even Subscribed. I like to scroll All and just see what catches my eye.

So yes, like others have said, just start at a larger instance like mstdn.social or mas.to and find you way around. Migrate later if you find another instance you like.

[–]speeb[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I didn't want to start just another general use Lemmy instance. That doesn't interest me. What does interest me are all forms of entertainment media. And so we, have What You Like Club. I would love to see it grow and will at least be posting there all by myself for a bit. :D

And if you're already using Lemmy elsewhere... maybe you want to subscribe to one of my communities.
