If you supported the dev you’d pay to remove the ads. Clicking the ads would also support them.

It’s alright to like an app just because it’s familiar. I feel the same way with Boost.

that would break iMessage support on older iOS devices that no longer are supported

Yes, that’s what “no longer supported” means.

Valve is currently a private company, which is likely why they’ve been able to avoid enshittification for so long. All we can do is hope that whoever eventually takes over when Gabe steps down also has his ideals at heart.

Ah I see. I don’t think there’s a way to do that yet.

If you’re so inclined, perhaps you could contribute to the discussion (or development) around tags on Lemmy here, since a feature like that would solve your issue.

Just block the community. It would have been faster than typing this comment.

To answer your question (and not just recommend another piece of software instead):

Making a cylinder and deleting the cap faces makes what’s known as a non-manifold mesh. To my knowledge this means you can see the backfaces without travelling through any existing faces (in your case, you can see them by looking through the holes you made when you deleted the cap faces).
That cylinder has walls that are theoretically infinitely thin, so you should thicken them up before attempting to print it. You can do this with a Solidify modifier. You can also extrude and scale them if you like, it achieves the same effect.

Given a manifold mesh, your slicer will treat the inside (as in, the direction the backfaces are pointing) as solid, and you can change the density and infill pattern to whatever you like.

Make a few of these shapes, both manifold and non-manifold, and see how your slicer reacts when you tell it to slice them.

It’s likely hosted in China, so I’m not surprised.

You can summon Scratch?!

The fourth rule of “Keep it clean” simply means that Larian Studios reserves the right to stop your use of its IP if it deems your content “inappropriate, offensive, damaging, or disparaging.” It isn’t forbidding you from making R-18 content.

This seems sensible on the surface until you realise that people’s definitions on inappropriate/offensive can vary wildly. Many people consider all R-18 content to be inappropriate, and I’d bet that most companies (Larian/WotC included) would agree.

Ah yes, because anyone who works on a Friday is automatically being taken advantage of by their company.

Sure, pushing a release out on a Friday is a poor idea if your workforce isn’t equipped to fix it if it ends up breaking things. Everyone in the industry knows that. But implying that they suddenly don’t care about their workers because they dared to push on a Friday is pretty moronic.

I suppose the company I work for doesn’t care about me either because I’m required to work weekdays.

I would say upvotes are thanks enough. But if you have something extra to say, then I’d say thanks in a comment and then give your extra information there.

For example, just “Thanks! That was useful/entertaining/enlightening/etc.” as a comment is pretty pointless, as an upvote conveys that exact message. Nothing more and nothing less.
If you have something more to say, then a comment would be appropriate. Perhaps something like: “Thanks! I did your X method with a bit of extra Y and now my car runs so much quieter!”.
This is especially true if your extra information would be useful to others who may also be reading the thread.

I did read them. If you think the game follows them then tell me why it’s unable to pick up a small gem and carry it to me? It’s less than 10lbs and requires no fine-grained control.

I guess the username checks out though…?

Wrong race that would upset my parents

Your parents aren’t going to date your partner, so their opinions on her race mean absolutely nothing. It’s like going to a restaurant with a friend and they tell you you can’t order salmon because they don’t like it. It’s not their food, so what they say doesn’t matter since they’re not eating it.

Feeling that my interest in the other person is not genuine and that I only see her as a sexual object

This felt a little too real to read. I know that feeling, and it’s not nice. I got no advice here, just letting you know you’re not alone in feeling it.

I have this dreadful feeling that I missed out on something important in life

The best part about life is that you get to define what’s important to you. Some people may find meaning in having a family, but it’s not the only objective way of finding meaning/purpose. You could find joy in creating things, exploring the world, even just working. There’s no secret formula or shortcut to finding it, and there’s definitely no hard rules about what it can be. I hope this helps you feel better.

I got my last 3 phones used, all were at a great discount, and all lasted about as long as you’d expect a new phone to.

I’ll continue buying used until new prices become reasonable again, and even then I will still probably buy used because it’s cheaper and helps combat ewaste (if only a little).

Changing the UI elements isn’t the reason why Android exists. The purpose of a phone’s OS is to act like a phone. Both Android and iOS do this perfectly well. If they didn’t, nobody would use them. Everything else they can do is just a nice bonus.

Don’t get me wrong, I much prefer Android because of those features (plus I hate walled gardens), but I think your usage of the word “purpose” might be a bit of a stretch here.

What? Cars and trucks are built for different purposes. Do you think Android phones and iPhones are built for different purposes?

They’re not really that different. They both have apps which you open and use to do different things. In a car that would likely be to communicate with people, listen to music, or to navigate.

It’s >!Portal 2!!<

Explanation:

!The powerful being/orchestrator is GLaDOS, the orphan is of course Chell, and the mental illness is Wheatley. I know that last one is a bit of a stretch, but he technically is if you consider that attaching him to GLaDOS to inhibit her “brain” functions is what he was designed for.!<

My guess is >!Half-Life!<.

Explanation:

!The engineer would be Gordon Freeman, the creatures would be the enemies from Xen, the security forces would be the soldiers, and the elderly man in a suit would of course be the G-Man!!<
