  • I use Inoreader on both desktop and mobile (they have a very feature rich app, synchronize your experience up, and have a generous free plan).

  • No, they don't. I actually think the biggest harmful thought the wealthy have imposed is a sort of learned helplessness and apathy "it doesn't matter because the rich control everything."

    They want you to think they're untouchable because if nobody ever tries nobody will succeed.

    • [Question for admins] How do you feel about your users requesting content or account removal from other servers.

    Jump

  • I kinda think instance blocks at the user level are the right way to handle this. If you don't want to have your content federate with my rather small server... I mean okay, but I'd mostly just be annoying it required me to fulfill that request manually rather than it being something you did.

  • Interesting, I'll have to check it out.

  • Well that's not good... I'll have to find some other way to keep my phone in sync...

    Maybe proton drive's sync is finally good enough...

  • Literally remember people saying they didn't vote for Clinton in 2016 because she didn't pay attention to their state. That was their excuse anyways.

    People are wild.

    • Windows 10 only has a year of support: 12 months left to keep Copilot off your desktop or learn Linux

  • Like radically insidious man.

    • Internal blog post reveals Automattic's plan to enforce the WordPress trademark using 'nice and not nice lawyers'.

  • That seems incredibly unconvincing on its own. It sounds like this person had a lot of alt accounts, probably was doing ban evasion, and kept posting things that violated the TOS.

    • Passwords have problems, but passkeys have more

  • That's literally a passkey.

  • You don't become racist by searching for truth and answering the hard questions, both things good leadership requires. So ... color me surprised.

  • I'm hoping Godot becomes a serious competitor but I'm also thinking CryEngine 6 might be a true UE5 competitor. It's basically the WIP engine for Hunt Showdown and Crysis 4.

  • That's adorable!

    • How do I keep up with the insane amount of trash that I get?

    Jump

  • This works to some extent. I have a house that used to be a rental.

    I had one lady tell me she couldn't take MY HOUSE off their list because I am not the guy who signed up for the mail. Even though that guy hasn't lived here in years.

    Someone else used this address for a business... After they no longer even lived here. So I had to take that up with the state and got their business license revoked.

  • Who has time to visit a park?

    Me.

    There are no more neighborhood stores of any kind.

    Depends on the neighborhood.

    No one can afford a coffee shop.

    Seriously? Then how are there so many in business?

    And who wants to talk to random strangers at the bus stop?

    I'm game. I do it in airports, we have fun.

    • Microsoft Recall is now an explorer.exe dependency

  • Buddy, you have a genuine problem in that you're refusing security updates. Never mind the importance of your data, a system that's not receiving patches can become part of a bot net using your bandwidth to perform DDoS attacks, it can be used as a springboard to infect other systems, and it can be used to spy on you (if not directly via hardware sensors, MAC spoofing based MITM is a thing), it can lead to hardware level compromises (by infecting the BIOS), it can be used as a proxy for illegal activity, and probably some other stuff I'm not thinking of right now.

    If you want to update to Windows 11, I fully accept that as a valid choice.

    This is not a Linux vs Windows issue. This is "I don't like what Windows has become in 11 ... and I will not be getting security updates on Windows 10 soon." So, your valid options to be responsible are A) get over it and update to 10, Microsoft owns Windows, you do what they do if you want to run Windows, B) install Linux, C) buy a Mac and host it on that, D) install FreeBSD and host it on that, E) write your own operating system, F) find some other niche operating system.

    So when I suggest "just install Linux and fix your problem" it's not fan-boy-ism; it's accepting the reality that what you're doing is a bad idea and you shouldn't do it.
