When an attached image is loaded, then if the loading fails the app should check if it's using proxying (domain belongs to posters'/forums' instance or user's instance & contains redirect format URL pointing to another domain) and give you a button to press to retry, which would suggest bypassing the proxy and requesting the original image directly

Motivation: I keep seeing broken image embeds and can't be bothered to view source and try the redirect section in my browser after rewriting it to a proper link for every failed image load

Let the app do that for me

[Windows subsystem] for [executable environment] is the naming scheme. The default is Win32, there's one for POSIX (practically never used), and Linux runs in another.

Malicious compliance is when you follow a order or law knowing that it will backfire on those who issued it.

"Lawfare" is a comparable term but not quite it (basically legal harassment campaigns).

This affects the view of posts via the bluesky servers, but not via mirrors or other servers

And the use of content addressing means you can be sure it hasn't been modified

Several Android manufacturers have their own settings in the OS for battery longevity (automatic schedule based smart charging, or charging limits)

Don't think it's native in Android. Charging limits need support in the charging controller chip, plus driver support in the OS.

I use my backup headphones when my Bluetooth headset has run out of battery

Or make a rule that bosses have to try out everything they suggest for others first, let them Darwin award themselves instead of others

Wireguard is most reliable in terms of security. For censorship resistance, it's all about tunneling it in a way that looks indistinguishable from normal traffic

Domain or IP doesn't make much of a difference. If somebody can block one they can block the other. The trick is not getting flagged. Domain does make it easier to administer though with stuff like dyndns, but then you also need to make sure eSNI is available (especially if it's on hosting) and that you're using encrypted DNS lookups

I did pay attention, and I saw noone serious think that would be legal to do

The biggest errors was not pushing harder against his first campaign, not pushing harder during the impeachments, letting Jan 6 go without another impeachment, and not calling out the billionaires helping his campaign with the intent to dismantle agencies that protect people, etc.

The SCOTUS appointments were big issues but due to the timing meaning they happened when dems lacked majorities there wasn't much to do about them. Getting Trump out of the office is the only fix.

Only exception would've been SCOTUS reform immediately after Biden's election when he had a majority, but the problem there is he couldn't get enough votes for it

How were they supposed to override the "turtle" though? Sure they should've fought harder, but what legal options were there?
