something that isn’t an SD card to the /sdcard directory?

Could be.

On my phone (Poco X3 Pro - stock Android 11, MIUI 12) the /sdcard is a symlink pointing to /storage/self/primary which itself is a symlink pointing to /storage/emulated/0, which is /data/media, the user-accessible portion of internal storage.
Though from what I can find it anyway is just emulated FAT filesystem which is actually ext4 under that.

Something about backwards compatibility as the directory used to actually be used for SD cards in the past.

I am talking about some devices using /sdcard to mount internal storage.

But is it an SD card.

I mean, the directory name says so, but...

~ $ realpath /sdcard
/storage/emulated/0
~ $

...it may also not be.

Not everyone knows everything. Actually, nobody does.

Computers simply became an easily available necessity, thus you get a lot of computer-illiterate people using computers.

I don't really expect more than like 2-3 Lemmy users to know anyway. It's just a random joke.

Based on what I've heard about the US's 988, it may rather be negative.

Oh, you're thinking of killing yourself, let us reinforce that by being absolutely rude, or better yet, time to get taken away by cops into a psych ward.

Let's see what's out there with some example (Reddit)
Summary: Person called 988, police showed up 90 minutes later, got taken for mandatory psychological evaluation, forced to stay 2 days in ER, ended up getting billed $6,470.

I mean, wouldn't that be similar to leaves moving in wind though?

I would recommend actually getting into contact with your crush. You could then establish means to use OTP and won't need to trust your friend at all.

You know, exchange each in and out OTP keys each of you will use, agree on a checkerboard to use, write a codebook for common words/phrases you will use, how you'll notifiy the other party of potentially compromised key(s).

I also like the idea of ptunnel

Ptunnel is an application that allows you to reliably tunnel TCP connections to a remote host using ICMP echo request and reply packets, commonly known as ping requests and replies.

They clearly show wear.
I am not sure if they were replaced from another older device, or the entire cover is from L390, but that one would have a plastic cover for where this one has a stylus. It doesn't seem like anything was snapped out of there.

I couldn't find replacement ones online, and I am not sure if contacting the shop is a good idea. See, the L390 Yoga has a touchscreen with better colors and seems to be a bit more expensive (but not much).
However, I bought this as "L390". I noticed the description said "Touchscreen: yes", which I realized meant they likely mistook the Yoga version for the base version. Indeed, that is the case.
Currently they have one L390 Yoga in similar condition and same configuration, but the screen has some white spots (this one is flawless), ...and it's €46 more expensive.

If you're curious, i5 8365U, 16GB RAM (single-channel), used 256GB Samsung SSD (I don't remember if SATA or NVME), €180 and 2 year warranty.

Also, if you're wondering what that port with network symbol is, it appears to be a proprietary connector used on ThinkPads requiring an "Ethernet Extension" adapter to be usable.

First of all a disclaimer: I am not upset about the removal of manual server selection as this is a free service. They don't need to provide such services at all, so something is better than nothing.

What happened:
This morning I opened the ProtonVPN app on my phone and got greeted with a message stating free accounts can now only use automatic server selection and addition of free servers in Poland and Romania.
However, I also noticed split-tunelling is now paywalled as well.

Now, this is rather weird. Split-tunelling is already in the app and is something that works only on the client side, thus not putting any extra load on the servers. Quite the contrary, actually, as it allows some apps to not use the VPN, thus use less bandwidth.
The automatic-selection-only allows for better load balancing, so that makes sense.

Now to the workaround.
They still allow manual OpenVPN and Wireguard setup even for free accounts, at least for now.
To do so, login to ProtonVPN and go to account. There's OpenVPN credentials which are used for OpenVPN authentication. Then go to downloads, select appropriate options including the specific server and download the ovpn config file.
Client: OpenVPN for Android
This app also supports split tunneling (edit config -> Allowed apps).

ProtonVPN has an article on how to set up this app, but it's really just importing the config and adding your OpenVPN ProtonVPN credentials which you grabbed before.

These apps have support for huge amount of printers and allow printing over Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and most importantly, USB.

It seems they might be based on some existing project, though. They all have very similar UI, and function the same.
Printer2Go and PrintHand don't just have similar UI, but exactly the same UI.

Same thing in CIT test menu:

I mean, this one is on me. I bought Poco X3 Pro knowing damn well it's plagued with issues. But €188 for phone with Snapdragon 860, 120Hz screen, big battery, stereo speakers, headphone jack and IR blaster 1 and a half years ago? Hell, that sounds too good.

And yes, before you ask, I have tried turning it off an on. Also resetting both from settings and recovery.

By "party", I mean a physical social gathering of people for the purposes of having fun. It may be used in a sentence as "I am throwing a party!" or "Let's party!".
Basically what I am trying to say is the default "party".

I've never been to any, and I have no idea how people spend their time on parties, so I am curious how you did.
