When I reply in English to a thread that’s in another language (like German), Mastodon assigns my post the language of the thread, even though I’ve written in English and set English as my default.
This means other users (e.g. German speakers) won’t see the “Translate” option, because Mastodon thinks my post is already in their language.
Is there a way to force my posts to always be in English unless I manually change it?
Weiß jemand, wie der Dunkelmodus auf einem Mac mini – macOS Sequoia 15.3.1 – eigenen Bedürfnissen angepasst werden kann?
Weiße Schrift auf schwarzem Hintergrund ist auf Dauer unangenehm (mir verschwimmen die Zeilen), ich hätte das gerne abgemildert auf grau oder sowas.
Ganz auf den hellen Modus möchte ich nicht umschalten, weil ich ein der Tageszeit angepasstes Hintergrundbild auf dem Desktop habe, damit ich mitkriege, wann ich ins Bett sollte.

Some nice tips for deactivating Windows 11 settings you don't want / need:
2) I found a searxng instance I wanted to use:

3) I added it as a new option in my Firefox for the default search engine:

And now I can have the searxng of my choice set as my default search engine.

As our digital lives in the US become less stable and private, I wanted to figure out how to choose what search engine my browser uses.
I just added a new default search engine option for my Firefox on my MacBook (Mac OS).
1) add an extension to Firefox to allow me to add a different default search engine:

#Settings in #reticulum #meshchat #reticulummeshchat #rns for #lora #radio #mesh Always set your stationary / radio #rnode #rnodes to be #gateway nodes (#interfaces) for effective #routing in your #mesh. See Sect 6.14 of rns #reticumlumnetworkstack manual

Customizing your browser is like setting up your own cozy corner. Change the theme, rearrange the layout and make it feel right.

Very non tech person here, but I did look at autocorerct settings on my android phone and got lost right away.
I have made certain typos so often I almost only type the typo. 'Agani' and 'kwno' amd most 'ing' words, because I type too fast (laptop, mostly and phone)
Is there a way to have autocorrect replace these constant typos automatically? I think I once knew how to remove words from autocorrect...
Thanks!
Why has my computer upon powering up demand (this alarm is startling) that I go into F1 and set the date and time? (I'm not a computer person); and, why doesn't the date and time stick once I set them? This only began on the last 2-3 startups.

The fix is just absurd: Just delete the contents of github.xml

as stored in $HOME/.config/JetBrains/PyCharmCE2024.2/options/
and reauthing with access token magically unfucks it for some reason...
To turn off the #Mastodon notification sound:
1) Add "/notifications" to your #Fediverse URL & press enter: https://.../notifications
2) Disable "Play sound"
Translation: #Meta tightened the reins over what to put in your #feed & Explore tab, specifically from accounts you don’t already follow.
As part of the shift, #Instagram also opted everyone into a new #setting to have it recommend less #political #content from accounts you don’t follow. It did NOT alert users to this inside the Instagram #app. (If you don’t want a #sanitized feed on Instagram, #Facebook or #Threads, instructions for how to change your #settings below)
