Honeycomb is insanely slow and only strong in 1 direction as opposed to all directions like gyroid. 3D honeycomb isn’t much better.

Hey there,

This isn’t about your issue specifically, but if you are serious about tracking your heart rate, you shouldn’t use a fitbit anyway, especially during workouts most fitbits have less than 70% accuracy. In moderate activities, it is still under 85% accurate. Using the H10 is important if you want some form of accuracy and don’t have an Apple watch & iPhone.

For your actual question, I don’t use Jefit, but it seems like they don’t have too much flexibility from some Google searching. You could try syncing to Google fit from Strava because it can directly take heart rate from the H10 and has a strength profile instead and see if that plays nicer?

Many fitness apps can do heart rate. It is on the developer to integrate it or play nice with Google fit. It seems like a lot of strength apps fall short on this a hit.

Yeah but health connect literally just got rolled out earlier this year. The app list is extremely short. Google might kill it in the next year or two also. It apparently is also only available on newer phones in the pixel line (4 phones or something?)

Everyone will have to wait until it is integrated with other apps, but it doesn’t seem like it will be a priority just like how Material You hasn’t been a huge priority for many apps. Maybe putting pressure on the devs would do something?

De Grijze Jager book 2, to work on my Dutch because I read the series in English (Ranger’s Apprentice) at around 12 or 13 so I know it, but it is also written in past tense with some more complex words that I don’t hear in conversation.

Just finished How to Change Your Mind by, Michael Pollen and it has a very objective and interesting take on psychedelics and therapy using them but it also seems like he didn’t dive very deep at all into his experiences

I am looking at reading more cosmic horror like The Fisherman or The Hollow Places, but a lot of the books I have seen recommended aren’t on Kobo and I refuse to use Amazon.

Be careful, subtitles on Chromecast seem to get progressively more and more out of sync until it is about 3 seconds out of sync if they are not embedded in the media.

A very American/British problem lol. Here in Belgium everyone is bilingual, many people trilingual, a couple people at my work quadlingual. Here there would be no such compensation.

That being said, if you have to regularly do work outside of your job description/duties, then ask for more money/benefits/compensation.

It of course depends on the situation. Asking 1-2 times per year to check over a translated document or communicate with a client? That isn’t a big deal in my opinion. Asking it every day? Then it is a new duty and should be compensated.

Exact same situation, but I have had issues with the shitty ISP box resetting itself on an outage and simply not forwarding traffic from the open ports to my router with a static IP. It would just say “no” and I had to change the static IP on the ISP box and reboot everything and then it would work fine. It has been fine for 3-4 months without needing anything, but sometimes it is annoying.

Lens is the one thing I still use from Microsoft. None of the competition works nearly as well for b&w/greyscale plus angle correction and multiple PDF pages.

On top of that it is completely local, doesn’t make you sign into an account, doesn’t ask for location access, and doesn’t phone home (at least what I have been able to see).

The only thing that Microsoft makes that I will choose over open source alternatives. Knock on wood that they don’t change it.

I get that. I tried Swiftkey a few years ago for a few months, but I still typed normally like a pleb lol.

Though the setup for Anysoft is just better for me with language switching. I can’t fault anyone for their keyboard choice because it is such a specific feel.

New cases with slide out keyboards like the old LG Ally incoming? 😂

Nope, I have the same issue, but I have narrowed down the exact behavior.

If you put 2 fingers on the screen in a fullscreen image and slide them even the tiniest millimeter it will go into “pan mode” or so instead of zooming mode. You can no longer zoom until you release your fingers and place them without moving them at all before you pinch to zoom. (I have this happen much more often in practice while using the phone 1 handed on an unstable environment like a tram or train.

Interestingly, you can pan and zoom at the same time if already zoomed in, but on a full image where panning doesn’t do anything, it will lock both actions until you release your fingers.

There is a release 46 on f-droid. This does not fix the issue (tested on a few photos including this i.redd.it/mm6682q8tgmb1.jpg and this i.imgur.com/XRKZAhR.jpeg)

Perhaps it is an issue with embedding from reddit images?

If you still want me to, I cab probably install the debug version and attempt further debugging.

A lot of the top VPNs on here as well as less known VPNs seem to have much less connections.

(protonVPN, Mullvad, and PrivateVPN for example).

Cool site! Though it isn’t too good on mobile because it forces the map into a window 1/4 od the screen size 😅

3d modelling and slicing software for Linux

Hi y’all! This may be a stupid question, but here it goes anyways: I’m thinking of trying to install Linux on a laptop that’s getting slow because of a bloated Windows install. I basically only use it for some internet browsing and 3D modelling (Fusion360) and slicing for my 3D printer (Cura). Is such software available...

JustEnoughDucks,
@JustEnoughDucks@feddit.nl avatar

Be careful, the interface is out of 2008 and many things work differently than F360. Especially assemblies.

Keep at it look up many videos, it is super powerful. Just not as streamlined as F360

I have made a small form factor computer case as well as a flight stick in it. Definitely good software. Hopefully in the next 2-3 years it will get immensly better also because many people are starting to work on it.

Fairphone 4 was 10.5mm thick.

Much thinner, yes.

I have gotten a job through glassdoor. My first actually.

It’s just a job posting site and most tech jobs go through an internal portal anyway.

90% of any “easyapply” services on any job finding platform will do nothing at all

As far as a company reviewer, it is a shitshow. I was looking for a job last year, tons of 2-4 star companies with fully mixed/negative feedback I was browsing again a few weeks ago and a lot of those companies have positions open. Almost every one of them were now “unreviewed” companies with 0 reviews. All of those reviews were purged.

There are no companies (that I have been coming across in my field) in my country now that have below 3.5 stars. A company that I KNOW had 2.5 stars when I was looking for a job 2 years ago. They are a contracting company with a lot of temporary employees, mediocre salary, no progression, etc… All of the sudden it is 4 stars now.

Not to mention that now in the app, clicking the “rating” tab no longer brings up company rating and reviews. It brings up the exact same information page as the company puts as their “about us” with founded, size, headquarters, etc…

Glassdoor is not a company review site anymore. It is a mediocre job posting board.

@JustEnoughDucks@feddit.nl avatar

But then they wouldn’t earn profit for taking bribes from companies with low ratings (or extorting them like yelp)

If mass renewables (excl hydro for obvious reasons) is only gaining traction in the past 20 years and there is a solid goal to phase out fossil fuels and replace them with renewables, every year should be the fossil fuels’ lowest share in the power mix right?

The problem is that the socket will always have the mechanical retainers for all sorts of plugs. This was a problem for example in the shitty Nokia (HMD Global) phones that used the literal cheapest half-sockets it could find. The retaining tabs wore out and the entire phone socket had to be replaced.

But yes, the smaller retaining pins on USB C will wear out the plug first. Apple Lightning cables will wear out at the phone side instead of the plug side. The difference is that Apple requires Lightning certification on all of their cables meaning that shitty out of spec Chinese crap can’t ruin your port as easily. They worked around bad design with legal restrictions. This was also a play by Apple to restrict charging to whatever they want with proprietary protocol.

USB-C is also grounded from the shielding around the connector, that is huge for pushing higher speeds also. Lighting is limited to 2010 speeds, but generally on phones that doesn’t matter.

For your dirt problem, a smaller toothpick works fine and I have used that method many times to get fuzz and dirt out of my port. Don’t use metal. Generally you will be fine with metal because GND and high voltage are both right next to high speed data lines so it will simply pull the data line high or low, pull data lines to each other, or temporarily toggle CC/SBU pins. Not a big deal, but if you go diagonally you can short something that would burn out supporting components, so I would recommend wood or plastic.

Fair point, I have had to do that while transferring music files but most if not almost all Apple users have thouroughly drank the kool-aid of owning nothing and streaming everything from the cloud.

Linux has its own file transfer issues. For example both Thunar and Nautilus had issues around 2014 era where transferring a lot of small files instead of few large ones would completely hang the file browser and transfer. 2 different systems with different distros. I tried every fix in the book, but I had to use rsync for a long while just to transfer small files like music.

Nowadays it seems like that isn’t a problem. Certainly not with dolphin but windows still has that same MTP problem.

Lol, implying that universities nowadays actually have their required textbooks in the library. Maybe a couple 101 courses (enough for 1 in 200 students) but they have a direct financial incentive to not offer course books in the library.

anyone else using a tortilla press? (reddthat.com)

Been making flour tortillas with the press. Fresh tortillas are amazing. Mine came with a bunch of wax papers to put between the press, but I discovered they did more harm then good. After several attempts I settled on a yeast based flour tortilla recipe which I spice up with mild chili powder. Press to shape and then roll it...

I live in belgium.

4 shitty food things about it:

  • almost no good Mexican food except for brussels. Almost nowhere seems tamales, much less good ones. Very difficult to find corn husks short of stealing them from farms
  • absolutely no Masa to be found anywhere except specialty, expensive Mexican online shops that come from who knows where
  • it is difficult to find good milk that isn’t ultra high temp pasturized
  • nearly impossible to find decent salsa or even the peppers to make it without travelling to go to a specialty shop in brussels

Hard life of a Mexican food lover in Belgium 😂

Innefficient, can be catastophic to local environments, not feasible in like 70% of places, but that kind of energy storage is in une in a few places in China amd the US where it is a good option in the local geography.
