This is @Dave@lemmy.nz and @Dave@piefed.nz but PieFed told me not to use my admin account for general browsing so here I am following instructions.
I was a data analyst/engineer in the government when we got told our government wanted a list of all algorithms used across government.
We had to seek clarity on that one, in the end it turned out there was media attention around computer decision making in application processes and they were wanting to track that.
I was explaining to my kids about floppy disks, and mentioned the save icon. The what? The button you press to save. It just says “save” they said.
I think they use the Google suite at school, and apparently the save button just says “save”. Although TBH I half expected them to not know of it because of auto-saving.
Yeah I don’t think people defederate based on what happens on your own instance, only what flows to other instances.
As others say, buy a domain so it’s easier in the future.
But one thing what helped me was relay email addresses. Whether that’s Addy, Simplelogin (now owned by proton so probably not), Firefox Relay, or another. When you sign up to shit, buy something, etc, use one of these email addresses. When you eventually move to your new email address, you can cutover all those accounts to the new one by changing the settings for where it forwards email to.
You can also use your own domain with a catchall and make up your own whatever@yourdomain if you’re ready for that.
Like for picking locks?
I’m gonna disagree on the vacuum. A corded one has a cord, and cords are annoying as hell for vacuuming.
The right battery vacuum is great for grabbing and vacuuming in little bursts instead of making a big thing out of it.
Ah that makes sense, thanks!
Btw Lemmy/Piefed let you sort by “active” which is loosly the function for a post to rise to the top when someone comments on it (it does rabk with votes too so it’s not 1:1)
If you want to hand out candy to children year round, you could consider becoming a tree? Saw this guy on the weekend, handing out lollipops to kids at the playground while playing the saxophone: https://thespinoff.co.nz/society/17-07-2022/have-you-seen-the-walking-talking-tree-of-wellington
Full disclosure, doing this may get you shot in the US, and this is not that unusual for Wellington NZ, we’re just kinda like this.
If it’s automated, why only run it weekly?
Can’t believe they killed her off so early on!
Yes. I cancelled almost 2 years ago hoping they would improve by the time it was up but now I only have a month left to sort a new service 😭
If it’s something like my example, then they will generally just charge for the main meal as swapping fries for mashed potato is pretty cost neutral. If you start adding bacon that’s a different story.
Lol apparently New Zealand is joining those ranks. Along with an app to pay.
I have an uncle that orders stuff not on the menu. Like ordering part of one meal and part of another (e.g. if the menu had “steak and fries” and “sausages and mashed potato” he might order steak with mashed potato).
95% of the time they can make what he’s asking for, and it blows people’s minds as they don’t even realise they can do that.
“Your Windows boots up in what, a day and a half”
Somehow still relevant too.
It feels like the kind if thing that someone, somewhere would have a script running constantly testing for private keys with low values. That it went 18 months without being found is a miracle!
I think there’s a good chance people will be looking for this now so will get caught a lot quicker next time.
So why did it take so long for someone to try it?
Legally? I’m not sure.
But if I had to explain to a jury, I’d sure rather have “the social media site’s server was in a data centre and hosted user content” as the explanation instead of trying to explain to laypeople “yes the material was on a computer in my house but akshully a computer and a server are the same thing, and there’s this concept among people online about hosting your own internet services” and so on.
That has 8GB RAM. The only reason the Pi in the headline is so expensive is the 16GB RAM. As others mentioned, the 1GB or 2GB options are a fraction of the cost.
