I haven't signed up to them yet, but will be soon. They are legit, I have been following them on Telegram - not loads of updates, but usually big ones, and their hub (blog) - https://hub.xeovo.com/

They also have plenty of guides on how to set up their service.

They are using Hysteria

It all looks fairly good from here, I was waiting for another sub to expire, but I think I will bite the bullet on these in the coming weeks.

Thanks, will have a look at that.

No, but if you have a link... 😉

I am pretty sure that such a service exists, but I can't find it.
People paid cash, and it converted to crypto. Similar to paying USD/GBP or EUR on an online store e.g. Amazon UK/DE/COM etc.

Ideally, like paying USD on Amazon UK so that I don't get stung with Amazons exchange rate or eBay (or Paypals) etc.

 

Are there any decent (Private or otherwise) payment portals that anyone could recommend, that allow customers to pay cash, but it could convert and deposit into a crypto wallet, preferably BTC on the fly, with as low fees as possible? I thought I saw one about a year ago but never bookmarked it.

Any recommended payment portals at all. Ones that require ID and business info to setup, ones that don't require any info but are safe and legit etc.. All that can allow the user to pay cash for crypto. Thanks.

EDIT - Maybe something like Paybis or Bitpay. I will have to look into both of those a bit more.

Yes, it seems it does.. and they look good. 🙂

Example here - https://piefed.social/topics

I got it from here - Scroll down to differences between Lemmy and PieFed.

Thanks, will look for it. Hopefully can find some info. 🤞

Ah ok. Thanks.

[–] Babalugats@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago (5 children)

Thanks. Does PieFed have subcategories?

 

As per the title.

If I was running a Vanilla forum and wanted to migrate over to a new lemmy instance, e.g. forum.com to lemmy.forum.com Could I migrate the entire forum over while keeping the same categories/sub categories as communities I guess, and bringing all of the old threads with them? If it is possible, would it be difficult?

[–] Babalugats@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago

Thanks, I will try that.

Thanks.

Not sure what is going on for me. I still have voyager installed but haven't used it in months. Raccoon up to date, but when I get a lemmy link in the browser, I get a choice of apps, Voyager, IronFox even PL fantasy football 😅 , but no Raccoon. It may just be my phone, I have a new one just not transferred everything over yet. Nothing happening in search at all. It may just be the instance that I have tried searching within, as I have seen elsewhere that people have had issues with instances.

I noticed after I posted that the github page was updated 4 hours ago.

[–] Babalugats@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago

I have added an idea to the OP as I think (and hope) that might make some sort of difference.

 

I was looking for this community and just noticed that the latest post is 3 months ago. ~~Is Raccoon no longer?~~ I found it while I was having issues with another app a few months ago and I find it great. Recently I noticed that Raccoon doesn't appear as an option to open lemmy links when I click on them on my phone. Also, while I was looking for this community I noticed that the search function doesn't work. ~~If Raccoon is no longer being maintained it would be a pity, because I prefer it over the other few that I have tried. I just find it more comfortable to use. Hopefully it's still going.~~ 🤞

As I am sure most of the world is aware of the monopoly that Ticketmaster have regarding events, I was wondering if anyone had any ideas on how to defeat them little by little or otherwise.

I have seen many campaigns, including one from before live nation was formed, in an attempt to prevent it. The juggernaut that it is, easily bats away any attempt to take it on, they are not even afraid of the US government trying to break up the monopoly.

They have been caught many times globally breaking and bending laws, and have a very unethical form of practice. Ticket prices just keep going up along with nonsense charges.

Would love to see ideas to help defeat them.

EDIT - Would lobbying politicians help? (Not sure if lobbying is the correct word). I mean, would having a pre-written letter template being sent to the correct politicians work if a load of people were to sign it and send it in, similar to the fightchatcontrol.eu site.

Which politicians to email?

I was looking around for a VPN and came across these. They are slightly more expensive than some of the more well known VPNs but cheaper than Mullvad and claim to offer similar levels of privacy. Hoping to hear from somebody who has used them or has an active subscription.

Thanks.

Hey, I have my own 2DS modded/hacked for a long time, I mostly only play CTGP 7 on my own/online. But that is just a result of neglect over time. I just followed the guide to hack my nephews 3DS and so far only have CTGP 7 on it too, (I literally did it tonight) and looking for any games where we could play as part of a team, or against each other using mods or any multiplayer that is still available. I have to get him a larger SD card, as he only has 2GB card.
Are there many/any other games that we could still play locally? Or together online?

Weird question maybe, but I don't think I ever liked the taste of fish, except when I was young. I vaguely remember eating fish fingers and (I think) plaice. But then I stopped and never went back to it. I dislike the smell, I find salmon bland (although that may have been the salmon I tasted once). Are there any particular fish that would make the crossover from chicken to fish easier? Or any recipes that don't disguise the taste of the fish too much, but make it more palatable for somebody that isn't crazy about the taste? I see the health benefits and would love to just get stuck in, but there seems to be a block with the associated smell and I guess a one off bad one that put me off eating it. I picked up cod in the supermarket today, and then decided I should ask here first...😁 So hopefully I get a mixture of answers, but mostly some helpful. Thanks for reading.

Edit. Wow, wasn't expecting to see this many replies. I have already seen some great ideas that I'm definitely going to try. I have to go through them all.

 

I downloaded the TG4 player tonight for the first time since before lockdown. TG4 produce and air some of the best TV in ireland (most of imo). The player was always decent, always better than the RTE player, but fck me. ... The latest version - last updated Nov 4th 2024 according to the Android Play Store, is close to perfect. Installed it on a Formuler box first, then on an old android TX3, and finally on a Huawei M5 Lite. Flawless. Press play and it plays, pause and it pauses. Zero buffering. Live TV perfect. Subtitles? Yep. That's standard for every TV Player. Then I tried RTE Player. What a clunky honking heap of shite.

That's all.

Anybody know the cost that both have taken to develop? I have heard RTE player was given to an employee's son or nephew, which probably explains why it's shit, but I have never heard what they cost each company. Does anybody know were to look?

 

This should be huge. But time will tell.

 

I hope this is legit, and that this lad follows JP fights, adds $100m to all 'challenges' after they're announced, winner takes all. Will Jake Paul still be willing to fight them?

 

Nephews father passed away, and he just recently got the PS4 back from his fathers partner. He can't sign into the PS4 PSN as we don't know his fathers gmail password (Can get it eventually off google after a fair amount of hoop jumping.)

He doesn't want to delete his fathers account and all of their data that they played together, so we created a new account for him on my phone. We signed up and signed in, and it worked for a second, but then no longer. It asks to sign in and throws up his fathers email address. When we change it to the new one we created and password and we try to login, we get the above error every time. We have also tried with passkey. Is there any easier way to do this?

TIA.

 

Google image results are shit on purpose. They used to be better (long before AI). I am guessing that they use the pretence that it's all about porn. But they do it for tools, equipment, stereos etc.. to give bad results. Are they getting paid (yet) to return bad results?

Manipulating search results for profit is something that they already do, and targeted adverts. So it's not that much of a stretch. I was just wondering if it is acknowledged already.
