Good to know, thanks! We're always conscious of the heat levels and make sure not to crank it up too high or keep it that way for prolonged periods.

Yup, there's a reason there aren't a ton of FOSS or small DDoS prevention/protection tools/services out there, and even large tech companies that may have the resources to develop their own rely on providers like Cloudflare instead. Also, to re-iterate another comment in this post, you don't necessarily need to allow cloudflare to see your encrypted traffic if you just want DDoS protection.

While sequels to closed stories are usually terrible, they can actually pull off a prequel with her character getting the omega's power, before Cage came into the picture.

We use Fika pans at home and I believe they are ceramic. Will that wear off too? We've been using them for almost a year now and they have been great. It's a low bar though because prior to that we've always used cheap non-stick pans. lol

Yeah, I think a lot of the people who are against are the ones who don't like the ad-removal model, because you are paying to remove ads on an app that uses a platform whose foundation is built against ads and tracking. The subscription model or one-time payment for life is fair IMO; people are free to support the dev (and please support the lemmy devs and instance admins too!). It's the ads (and tracking that come with it) that's kinda weird.

Memes in a way also brought back fascism. Remember when T_D (and some parts of 4chan) started out with Trump for president as a joke?

I set aside some time to really browse communities and subscribe to the ones I'm interested in. My Home feed is pretty good now and isn't just filled with memes and porn. Sure, there aren't as much comments as reddit, but it also makes discussions more meaningful because my comments are not instantly buried in low-effort jokes and puns. I just browse All from time to time to see what else is out there and maybe discover some new communities. It also helps to have accounts on different instances because the Local feed varies too.

Lol I have the exact 3 beta apps on my phone that I use alternately. You can also add the desktop web apps on there too. I'm on a desktop browser 80% of the time, so I use alexandrite as a front-end.

inaccuracies and hypocritical takes are being thrown around regarding FOSS.

Oh wow that grinds my gears too. Hopefully those takes are out of pure ignorance and lack of information rather than actually believing FOSS is not secure.

The hard client is on testflight if you're on IOS. Not sure for Android, but you can use the PWA.

Meanwhile, lxde is lurking around the corner.

Every time I get home and I know I've been touching a lot of stuff (i.e. grocery shopping). I just wipe it down with a napkin and rubbing alcohol.

Same for me. The lack of action is really the deal breaker. Sure, lapses happen with manufacturing or QA (not having an immobilizer by default is just straight up bad though), but what separates the good ones from the bad ones is that they jump into action and fix it; not delay and provide band-aid solutions. I'm just waiting to use up the pre-paid maintenance package I purchased then I'm trading mine in for a Honda.

The OG Alien Blue, then Antenna, then Narwhal.

The person at the DMV was confused why I was staring blankly (actually not, just a neutral expression) when taking a photo for my license. She told me that it’s ok if I wanted to smile. It’s weird how you’re allowed to have a non-neutral expression on driver’s licenses in the US.

Did the original breed look anything like the current one? I was just about to say it's uncanny how the ancient Aztecs and Egyptians had a similar looking death-related mythological thing (this dog and Anubis).

Aha DNS Blitz. Instead of an app, you install a VPN profile. The benefit is that it protects you wherever you go regardless of the connection you're using (home wifi, mobile data, public wifi, etc.).

Then they bring up some common criticisms of WFH, which I’ve seen and refuted since I started working from home 2009: People can’t communicate, working in groups is harder, and people can’t control themselves. Yawn.

Exactly. I work for a global company, so the way I communicate with the people I work with everyday is via zoom. What's the point of commuting to an office just to get on zoom anyway to talk to people?

These are the same people who would cut their noses off to spite their own face, so not surprising.

It’s essentially a way to get your foot through the door if you’re trying to get into the security field. I guess if you’re planning to switch roles within your current org it’s not really necessary vs trying to get hired at a new company. I haven’t checked how much they cost, but maybe you can try some of the Cisco certs as well?
