The Defense Ministry had previously assured conscripts they would not be sent to the front in Ukraine as they cannot legally be deployed to fight outside Russia.

Easy: simply declare that the sovereign nation you seek to eliminate has always been part of your empire. Now it's no longer 'outside Russia'. Conscripts hate this one trick.

    Forkyz let's you download and solve crossword puzzles.

    It comes with an inbuilt list of sources for different languages but you can also manually add new ones. Many newspapers publish crosswords daily or weekly for free so there's plenty of options.

    Meinem Verständnis nach: ja. Ist dasselbe Prinzip wie bei Hausordnungen.

    Wenn du ein Kino, Freibad, Hotel, Krankenhaus, etc betrittst stimmst du implizit den dort herrschenden Regeln zu. Du kannst nachfragen und wieder gehen, wenn die Hausregeln dir nicht passen. Insbesondere aber wenn du sogar explizit um Zustimmung geboten wurdest (hier durch einen Cookie Banner) kannst du aber nicht einfach die Zustimmung oder Ablehnung hinauszögern und dann trotzdem den Dienst weiter nutzen.

    Ich lass mich übrigens gerne von einem Rechts-Profi belehren 😛.

    Ne, wenn du die Seite nutzt und dabei den Cookie Banner einfach offen lässt, kann das als implizite Zustimmung gewertet werden. Wird ja auch oft so formuliert: by continuing to use this site you agree to our data privacy rules.

    It should be offered as an option really.

    One caveat is that you need to think ahead about how much space you want to assign to each partition. You could end up with your /home/ partition being full while the system partition still has plenty. Or vice versa. You can manually readjust the boundaries but it requires some understanding and can't be done on the fly by a non-technical user. By contrast if everything's stored on the same partition you never have to worry about this.

    You can, by the way, manually recreate this set up even after the initial set up although it will require lots of free space to shuffle around files (or some external storage to temporarily hold them). Basically what you do is create a new empty partition, copy all your /home/stuff there and then configure your system to always mount that partition as the /home/ directory when it boots. Files are just files after all and the operating system doesn't really care where they come from as long as the content is correct. Once you got it working you can delete the originals and free up the space to be used otherwise.

    Typically your personal files and app settings are stored somewhere in your user home folder, eg under /home/bob/. Ideally you've set up your system in a way so that the entire /home/ folder is stored on its own disk or partition at least. That let's you boot up a different distro while using the same home directory. But even if you haven't set it up separately from the rest of the system, you can still manually copy all those files.

    Not every single application setting is transferable between distros as they sometimes use different versions but generally it works well. Many apps also let you manually export profiles or settings and reimport them elsewhere later. Or they have online synchronization baked in.

    Markup let's you label a link which is really nice for readability but can also be used to trick people into opening a different site from what they are shown. For example the link below suggests it takes you to a Mastodon instance but if you blindly tap it it will take you somewhere else:

    https://mastodon.social/explore

    Is there a quick and convenient way to check the actual URL behind a link? I know that it's possible to show a post as plain markup but in longer posts with potentially multiple links it's cumbersome to correlate what is what.

    Ideally long tapping a link should show you the actual URL or alternatively you always get a small confirmation pop up with a simple tap (that's how it worked on RIF for instance).

    Just sanity checking if I'm missing anything, else I might submit a feature request.

    Edit: looks like this was added in a recent update. Get the newest version and it will let you long press a link to get an options menu.
