Ah yes, the Apple “we know design better than you do” of the Linux world.

Why not just use something like Fences on Firefox? It allows you to containerize individual tabs. I use it all the time to separate work and personal accounts.

Can also use Vinegar (for YouTube) and Baking Soda (for basically every other site with videos) with Safari on iOS. It’s not a perfect solution, but it at least revamps Safari’s built-in video player so watching in the browser is actually tolerable.

Lemmy has a really biased idea of what the average computer user can do. Imagine Janet in accounting, who calls help desk to reset her password every morning, and takes 30 minutes to remember how to check her email. Or the late GenZ just entering the workforce, who was surprised that their desktop wasn’t a touchscreen, and doesn’t know how a file structure works, because literally every device they’ve used growing up has been either a tablet or a Chromebook. That’s the average user.

Yup. And the issue here is that the cars back into and out of the parking spots, and are also programmed to stop if they get honked at. So car 1 begins backing into a spot, car 2 honks, car 1 pauses and then begins backing again, car 2 honks again, repeat… And when you have 30 cars in a parking lot, all trying to find a parking spot, there’s a lot of backing up and a lot of honking.

No, they specifically didn’t get leaked. And that’s the story. Trump’s team got hacked, and the hackers sent the emails to the news outlets. The outlets protected Trump, and refused to publish the emails.

Which is in stark contrast to what happened when Hillary’s emails got sent to the news outlets. The outlets were clambering to be the first to publish them.

Almost as if the outlets have a strong bias…

Was it a violent rape? Or was it a concensual get together but she was far too young and he was slapped hard for it statutory rape because young children cannot consent?

FTFY. It was statutory rape. He groomed a 12 year old, and slept with her multiple times. It wasn’t just a spur of the moment thing; It was planned, and he went out of his way to convince the victim that having sex was her idea.

On one side, he, and society overall see it as he served his sentence (not all of it but that is not his fault)

To clarify: He was sentenced to several years where the crime happened, but was extradited to his home country after only a few months. After extradition, he didn’t serve any time. So he only served a few months total.

and is rehabilitated

He had repeatedly refused to even acknowledge it during the games, and tried to downplay it every single time he was directly asked. Not even so much as a “yeah I messed up but I’m doing my best to make up for it.” Just straight up refusal to engage. Refusing to even admit you messed up doesn’t really tell the public “yes this person has been rehabilitated.” And again, he only served a couple of months for the crime.

he made changes to his life after that and made sure he is not near minors alone again

The Olympic Games are mostly minors, and most of the athletes live and sleep in close proximity to one another for the duration of the games. The Olympics are also pretty notorious for the massive orgies that happen after hours. They even have special beds (which the athletes always complain about) designed to only hold the weight of one person, because they couldn’t find better ways to stop all the athletes from having hardcore sex parties every night. Almost as if cramming a bunch of the world’s most physically fit teens into a close space and forcing them to sleep in one giant hotel will lead to rampant sex.

Everyone: “Rape is bad”
You: “Have y’all heard of racism?”

Yeah this is unfortunately a very common line of thinking. Restaurant workers get tired of people claiming allergies just because they don’t like something. And over time, they get lax with food safety practices, or even outright ignore them because they think the person is just faking it.

Even worse, some people will intentionally “test” allergies to see if the person is faking. Because they genuinely don’t believe the person, and want to prove they’re lying.

My buddy is deathly allergic to peanuts, and has had several reactions after explicitly clarifying with the server that there were no nuts in the food. And he actually ended up breaking up with a girl because her mom tested his allergy. She added peanut powder to some brownies she baked, then told him they were nut-free. He found out that his ex knew about it, (and didn’t warn him), which is what led to the breakup.

+1 for that, but it’s a shame they don’t have individual torrents. I understand why, but manually going to the site and searching for things is a pain. I’m used to just using qBitTorrent’s built in search, and automatically polling a dozen different torrent tracker sites.

Or these days, I just add the media to my Readarr server, and it handles everything (including getting it imported to Calibre automatically) for me.

My Steam and RuneScape accounts are both over 20 years old, and I still use both regularly. Hell, RuneScape is even available via Steam.

As far as the actual oldest account, I think I have an old Yahoo! Mail account from like… Late 1997? Early 1998? Back when AOL was still sending out free demo discs in the mail.

He’s been shitting on Maduro, but aren’t his tariffs a large part of why Maduro is in power? IIRC, his tariffs basically allowed Maduro to consolidate money and power.

Yup, out on bail while he awaits sentencing for the 34 felonies. And more charges are tied up in courts until after the election, but prosecutors have already started proceedings so he’d also be considered a flight risk for those cases.

My wife recently had to get an array of bloodwork done. It was ~$700 after all of the office visits and lab stuff had been completed. And that’s all out-of-pocket, because our deductible (how much we have to pay per calendar year before insurance kicks in) is several thousand dollars. And we pay them ~$600 per month out of my paycheck for coverage, for just myself and my wife; If we ever have kids, the full family coverage (as opposed to just two people being covered) spikes up to nearly $1600 per month.

The monthly premium being $600, plus the deductible means we end up paying ~$10k per year before insurance even begins covering things. And even after the deductible, they only cover 80% of the bill, and we’re responsible for the remaining 20%. So if one of us has an extended stay in a hospital with a $150k bill, we’ll end up paying the $3k deductible, plus $29,400 (that’s 20% of the remaining $147k.)

And all of that is assuming everything is “in network”. Insurance companies have networked doctors, who have contracts with the company. If you see an out-of-network doctor, the insurance will often refuse to cover it, or cover it at a vastly reduced rate. Not-so-fun fact: Nearly all anesthesiologists are out of network, because they have a separate labor union that refuses to sign network contracts with insurance companies. So if you go into a surgery, even if you insist that every single doctor, nurse, aid, etc is in network, you’ll still always get an out-of-network bill from the anesthesiologist.

Oh, also, dental and vision are entirely separate plans. Because somewhere along the lines, insurance companies decided that you need to pay for a totally separate plan to have functioning teeth or eyes.

There’s a reason medical debt has historically been the #1 cause of bankruptcy in the US.

It gets even worse: During the investigation, it was discovered that at least one person had copied videos and photos onto an external hard drive and taken them. The investigation never discovered who it was, or how many people had made copies; They just knew that files had been copied to at least one external storage drive.

The implication being that all of the teenage girls had their laptops open in their bedrooms, and at least one random employee had copies of their photos and videos.

My buddies and I had easy access to a theater, which had giant curved walls on each side of the stage. We hooked up three projectors to three Xboxes; One projector for the stage, and one for each of the curved walls. Then we ran them into the sound system.

We did it two or three times a week for months.

The funny part is that you could always tell who was screenlooking, because the screens were so big that you had to physically turn your head away from your own screen. And at that point you just die, cuz you start missing the people right in front of you.

You need to be friends for at least 30 days before you can invite someone.

“Secret” is a bit of a stretch. The playtest was offered to nearly all longtime Steam users. If it’s meant to be a secret, someone at Valve is getting fired.

I once got pulled over for drinking a can of Arizona sweet tea. Drove past a speed trap while taking a drink. They lit me up, and I was confused as to why because I wasn’t speeding.

Cop gets to my window and immediately asks if I’ve been drinking. Not even a “do you know why I pulled you over” or a “how are you tonight?” Just straight to “are you drunk?” I was confused, (and a little offended,) but answered no. He shined his flashlight into my car and asked what was in my cup holder. I turned the can around so he could see the label, and went “Uhh… Tea?” He deflated, have me a curt “have a nice evening” and turned on his heel to head back to his cruiser.

He 100% thought it was a beer can, and had hyped himself up for the easiest arrest of the evening.

Shoutout to that influencer who was pulled over for drinking Raising Cane’s dipping sauce while driving, cuz someone thought it was Jell-O shots and called 911 on him.
