being able to take real screenshots with Print Screen… when I’m trying to text someone about something on my computer is perfect.

I’m surprised by this workflow instead of sending the text from the computer (using KDE connect if “text” means SMS in this context).

I got messages from that account, but none of them were creepy, disgusting, or pervy. They seemed like a social experiment or some such.

I didn’t reply though. Maybe people who interacted with the account got something more explicit.

KDE Connect can do clipboard contents, notifications, SMS from your PC, and file transfer, but I like Syncthing’s approach of folder synchronization better than sending files individually. I use both.

I believe you, but the linked article is not about hosting Lemmy.

I host a few sites and I haven’t had a problem yet. Sure, logs suggest a majority of traffic is bots, but the cheap VPS I’m hosting on hasn’t melted so I haven’t been motivated to do anything about it.

buy a kilogram of pure caffeine powder and add a few mgs to your tea for an extra boost

Also get a milligram scale if you’re doing this. It’s hard for most people to overdose on caffeine in a medically significant way with tea or coffee; it’s easy with powder.

It’s probably good if my phone doesn’t call my mother a cunt while telling her I’m bringing the cocaine by default, but I should be able to toggle that.

A phone that actually costs less than $100 will make money from something other than its purchase price.

In some markets, that means the carrier subsidizing the phone and charging you a high monthly rate. I would counter that phone service should not cost more than $15/month.

The other thing it might do is preload adware, spyware, or outright malware.

Is it? The article doesn’t say that, and I didn’t spot any statement either way on the Kickstarter or official website.

I agree the Enough is also too thick. I’d be more interested if they made it 10mm or less at the expense of battery life.

Low volume means higher price.

Except that the Unihertz is 19mm thick.

As seen in this video teardown, the medium inside the rigid plastic case is quite floppy. This is similar to standard 3.5" floppy disks, but the Zip case is a bit more bulky.

Also two kids and a nanny.

Even if we assume all the rich adults were assholes just because they were rich, the majority of people on that plane were not rich adults.

There’s some subtlety about Sully’s case here. He was captain and pilot monitoring during the takeoff while the first officer was pilot flying.

After the engines failed, Sully used his authority as captain to take over flying.

The other important distinction is captain and first officer, with the latter often being described as “co-pilot”. The captain has final authority and primary legal responsibility for the flight regardless of who is operating which controls at any given time.

Maybe they should be outlawed for environmental reasons, but private jets operated by professional service providers as in this case aren’t the “small planes” with the high crash rates. It’s the ones with piston engines and inexperienced owner-pilots that crash a lot.

Even those are roughly comparable to cars in terms of injury and death rates for a comparable trip. Driving is one of the most dangerous things the average person does, so that’s not exactly good, but it seems to be within most peoples’ risk tolerance.

Yes, but IMAP is more common. I’ve been using Maddy for years, and it’s a fairly low-effort solution.

The fussy part in the modern era is DNS setup to ensure other providers accept mail from you, but that’s a one-time step.

She also tried to kill another prisoner several years after her initial crime. That’s reason to believe she’s more murderous than the average murderer and would present a danger to the public if released.

Life in prison or a mental health facility seems like the only reasonable option to me unless she was able to present compelling evidence that she is no longer dangerous.

I’d be mad about it applying to necessities like groceries.

I don’t have a problem with luxury coffee or junk food costing more at busy times of day. Once people know the pattern, it will shorten wait times for people willing to pay, and drive price-sensitive customers to alternatives. It’s the same phenomenon as the airport bar charging $20 for a beer, but applied to time instead of place.
