I loved Pretty Good Music Player and am since then looking for a good FOSS folder based player. For now I'm using Foldplay.

No app is completely uninstallable. But the one app in Iodé that can't at least be uninstalled via system settings is the Iodé tracking protection.

Iodé is considered one of the more secure custom ROMs and friends of mine and me are quite happy with it (running on a Terracube 2e, a Fairphone 3, and a Fairphone 4).

TOS in the early 90s.

Boy, was I disappointed, when I discovered how old it already was 😅.

Unfortunately we don't have polls in lemmy. Nonetheless I'd love to hear from you: What's your favourite Star Trek theme and/or your favourite scene with special (background) music?

For example: My favourite theme is TNG and my favourite scene is Cochrane's warp speed flight in First Contact with Steppenwolf's "Magic Carpet Ride".

I mean, I get it. For bingewatching to be effective such option must exist. But I just can't imagine to skip Star Trek intros. It's part of the anticipation, the joy, the ritual. What about you? Do you skip intros?

Love your PC hardware piece for a bookmark!

My fav is more than 30 years old and has been through many wonderfull books with me. It is made of leather and shows a hedgehog under a starry sky.

If you liked Voyager, you will like Prodigy I would say. It is for the young (at heart).

I love dogs! I don't have one yet, but I most certainly will. I'm pretty sure it will help me cope with stress.

I'll try to keep it short. These are the things I love doing, even though I sometimes don't have the energy for any of it, except lying in my bed. Being autistic can be quite exhausting.

...tinkering with alternative operating systems for notebooks and smarties.

...watching Star Trek - grew up with it and just don't get tired of (re-)watching. My fav is Voyager.

...playing video games - my favs are Loz - Breath of the Wild and Horizon - Zero Dawn

...reading - mainly SF, fantasy, and non-fic. My fav authors are Stephen Baxter, Robin Hobb, and Henry David Thorau.

...strength training - one of my rooms was turned into a training room.

...cycling - I own an almost 20 years old Specialized Rockhopper and prefer day trips.

...travelling and hiking with my GF - mainly in remote areas such as Lapland for example.

... lying in my bed, since it is the one place with the least sensory triggers.

"Burn Book" by Kara Swisher A book about Big Tech and Tech Giants by the one journalist, who followed the development in Silicon Valley from the beginning. So far I like it very much. Swisher is still convinced, that tech (companies) can make this place a better world, if it wasn't for the irresponsibility of it's owners. It's comforting to see her love for tech, her frustration with company leaders, and her firm belief, that it might still work out somehow. I'm curious, how it will go on and what she thinks might help getting tech back on track.

Edit: just to follow up on this. I have just been diagnosed with Autism. I am extremely relieved.

Glad to hear. All the best!

Fingers crossed. I know from my own experience that it can make all the difference in the world to finally have a lot (!) of things explained. (Got my diagnosis at the age of 34, ten years ago.)

I got ill and luckily took the time to watch this. As a huge fan of Star Trek and Janeway I love it!
