Haven't gotten to try this myself as the insider versions have been rather unstable for me lately, but "Super Drag and Drop" not only is quite a mouthful but invites confusion when there is already a Drop feature in place. Hope the naming can be mulled over a bit more.

I wonder if this is a result of some similar functionality being brought over from Edge on Android? The functionality of highlighting a search term and sliding up for an overlay showing results and previewing the page without opening a new tab actually came in pretty handy.

It's more about the single-player game but I just gotta marvel at this announcement coming at the same time as kiseki for the peeps out there that get the pun, it can only chalk up to coincidence but always open to interpretation...

First voice access and now print, we're getting to see more and more changes to W11 in the finer aspects of productivity.

Now this is less about physical printers but - one of the buggiest experiences I had on W11 was using the built-in save to PDF feature, which was shockingly slow as it was somehow configured to convert webpages to images first before generating the file, resulting in large and unsearchable PDFs. Unsure of whether this was supposed to be intended behaviour as this print option made it out of WIP, but I'm going to hope WPP gets tested a bit more extensively by the print team lest it ends up spewing out unusable results too 🫠

(BUG) cannot add to settings»blocked»domains

There is no option to add blocks of any sort (mag/user/domain) from settings, so it's more likely to be intentionally designed that way, i.e. you cannot add nor see a note on a user by going to their page either, you can only hover.

From how I understand it, you cannot block an instance entirely by blocking a domain i.e. fedia.io/d/lemm.ee, what's blocked would be hosted content like lemm.ee/pictrs/..../[file] and not some link posted to lemm.ee/c/abc, you will have to block from the magazine page i.e. fedia.io/m/abc@lemm.ee to get rid of them one by one. Domain blocking is probably intended for sites i.e. fedia.io/d/www-bbc-com.cdn.ampproject.org

EDIT:

I still want to see comments from lemmy.world users.

I think this is achievable via visiting fedia.io/d/lemmy.world/comments if you're looking for a stream of any and all comments (not just replies to your own threads/posts), not completely certain though!

Here's what I found for Exodus, a game that had no relation to my username lol

• Extended story trailer
• Prologue chapter 1
• Prologue chapter 2
• Prologue chapter 3
• Prologue chapter 4

Basically more of a flex for Blur Studio animators than the game devs right now

The news of this came out just as e-visas for cdns are getting processed again, is it now the US's turn to have service suspended or does a second attempt no longer fly?

Missed this before, but two separate guides were posted on taking advantage of IntegratedServicesRegionPolicySet.json after this update:

• You can remove Edge and Bing Search on Windows 11 even if you don't live in Europe via albacore
• Here is a simple method to uninstall Edge in Windows 10 and 11 via deskmodder

Looking into jv's posts a bit more, someone currently employed at a8c floated the idea of switching it over to use the WP backend, and the most recent development is that it'll be running on a skeleton crew and still hemorrhaging money.

I haven't had problems searching things before and was taking a bit of a break from doomscrolling even before the mbin switch, but searching "ontario doctor/s" or "ontario doctorate" would take me to a 500 server error. Other combinations like "ontario dr", "pickering doctor", "post doctorate", "ontario london", had no issues. Error could not be replicated on neither a kbin (ernest's flagship) nor mbin (melroy) instance, and issues for the mbin repo weren't related to search afaict

Using compact view and all other threads settings disabled so probably doesn't have anything to do with loading media.

It seems impossible to see user profiles from the libranet.de Friendica instance, i.e:

• @fu@libranet.de
• @petrescatraian@libranet.de

Also getting the 500 server error from just trying to go to microblog tab from the homepage -> https://fedia.io/microblog
Avatars are turned on but auto media preview set to off.
