Notify my employer that I won't show up, go to doctor and wait in the waiting room. When the nurse shows up, give her the insurance card and wait for your turn. They'll check you, and if it's nothing special (requiring a specialist), you'll probably get prescription for some meds to pick up.
Then you get those in a pharmacy. Either it's electronic, or if the system is once again broken, you hand them the Rx paper that the Dr. gives you in that case. And then you figure out what you're about to pay. A lot of things will be fully covered by insurance, but potentially you'll have to copay. There's also a chance the Dr. tells you to get something that isn't covered, like some specific eyedrops, cough meds, probiotics (if you have antibiotics for example), etc.

The pharmacist may recommend a cheaper alternative, will likely tell you recommended dosage, tell you that once again this specific Dr. prescribed something that hasn't been manufactured for the past 30 years, and in the rare case, tell you the prescription seems dangerous and to contact the Dr.
And also decrypt any handwriting/encoding.

wait until it’s below 20%

Not quite the same. No reason to discharge it before topping it up. If you do want to top up from 70% to 80&, that's not a problem for the battery, just perhaps the charging connector if you do that a lot.

I had luck with VNC, although it's still worse than RDP. There's also some RDP implementations on Linux that are apparently better, but VNC works well enough for me.
But there's no sound, I don't know if RDP has that. I've used VLC for sound forwarding. I also tried PulseAudio TCP module, but that didn't quite work. With VLC I can do lossy compression.

What I wish would work better is X11 forwarding. That could be so awesome, just having the remote windows local-like. But from what I can find, in the past, programs used X11's drawing features which would save a lot of bandwidth, while now they just draw pixel by pixel.

To give you some idea, I've tried it on LAN with gigabit ethernet, ping below 1ms. It would saturate the port and still be kinda slow.

I also found it OK-ish, at least after my usual disabling of BITS and SuperFetch (SysMain now, I think), and disabling auto-updates, I think in gpedit.msc, and using the provided BypassNRO.cmd to create local account.

Alright, maybe not that OK, but after the initial setup it ran fine even on officially unsupported computer made in 2007. Just had to modify the installer by merging W11 image into W10 installer.

Anyway, the Windows store or whatever isn't that used, and I got tired of updating every random program coming from .exe files. But similarly I don't like the large hops in versions like Windows 10 -> 11, or similarly with Linux Mint, so I went with Arch.

Anyway, I'll be a smaller minority. I most liked Windows 8.1. It was really well optimized.

But the "No refuge could save the hireling and slave, From the terror of flight, or the gloom of the grave" gets louder.

Eh.

I like them. It spins, it makes a sound when being used, it looks cool, I have to be a bit more gentle with it.

I think this could rather be related to power saving if the screen is locked.

I prefer to use a dedicated internet radio app. VLC also works if you obtain the direct stream (check online or play around with element inspector).

Have you replied to the wrong person?

If you were replying to me, the WebUI is best optimized for landscape use, and I don't like using my phone in portrait mode much, especially if I want to type.
Plus I get tabs. The Android multitasking is unreliable, and switching is inconvenient. There's no desktop-like panel, and background apps often die if more of them are open at once.
Lastly, embeds. Apps usually only work with images with regular URL, the WebUI works with Images, Video, Audio also in base64 data tag for tiny images, and images can be made into buttons.

Let me give you examples:

This is the Bulgarian Radio 1 stream:

And here's a button, but in base64 so it's directly in the comment, since it is pretty small:

These are edge cases, but an advantage too. If I wasn't lazy, I could use animated bullets and lines like on the old web, but in Lemmy comments.

Welcome to this example comment

Make sure to:

Firefox on Android was a bit of pain for desktop sites. First the tabs on top were missing, and until recently, the scaling was screwed up compared to Opera/Chrome.

Me spraying everything with LMG and extended mags:

My teammates: 💀

Until I got to your comment I actually thought I had read capitalism. I just thought it was the "if it's free, you're the product".

Quite ironic to read this during the war in Ukraine. /j

What's the connection between the two?

No, no, you will. It doesn't apply to human meat.

Also there are a lot more types of meat than beef.

The alpha-gal molecule is found in all mammals except catarrhines (apes and Old World monkeys), the taxonomic branch that includes humans.

Sounds like you could still eat fish, human and chicken (and other bird) meat as usual.

Holy hell, the Ubuntu ISO is 6.3GB now. Soon it may not even fit onto a DL DVD.

Or host your own VPN on home network. Or use Tailscale VPN, that also works behind CG-NAT, and can usually get direct connection.

You guys have sound? I can't unmute it in Lemmy, and directly on Imgur the unmute is grayed out.

Edit: Hmm, works on Firefox, again

Not the first time some media worked only in Firefox, but not Chrome. Embedded FLAC wouldn't play (despite it being supported), WebSDR audio wouldn't start, from the other times I recall.
Again being reminded to switch.

I just always rip them off.

In China, coins and banknotes have all but disappeared

Wouldn't that mean they're far more used than ever instead?
