LOL reminds me about the bigot during the first Trump administration harassing Puerto Ricans because he claimed they are aren’t American citizens. Get ready for even more of this nonsense in the next 4 years, ugh.

or that mainstream (S&P, Nasdaq) financial investments were no longer sound, what can one do to prepare for “the worst”?

Investors that factor in world markets would probably do okay as long as you’re talking just U.S. economic troubles. e.g. right now VT (total world stock ETF) is weighted 64.70% U.S. market due to market strength. So in theory if the U.S. tanked and other countries have better markets for investing then the weights would shift to the other side and maybe being closer to 30% U.S. vs rest of the world’s markets weighted towards 70%.

Thanks for this, I also have been using andOTP for years (and before that its earlier fork OTP Authenticator), didn’t realize its development went dormant too.

Win at what? The Pied Piper team might win if they were competing with the Switch Pitch Ball (always blue! always blue!).

Though if you meant hacking or anything technical pretty good chance F-Society wins. Maybe Gilfoyle joins up with F-Society, he seems like he’d be into it.

I suspect it’s partly a safety / comfort thing, female drivers don’t necessarily want to be hit on or harassed by every other male passenger they pick up.

They do exist, I just assume they’re armed in case they pick up some dude that starts acting up… The one woman I personally knew that was an uber driver always had a weapon her on side of the car just in case.

To be fair your post title does not match their own text

To keep your account safe and secure, in February 2025, Bitwarden will require additional verification for users who do not use two-step login.

So it’s not all accounts, just the ones that don’t already have 2FA. Personally I wouldn’t have noticed any changes since I already use 2FA enabled with an authenticator app. But I can see how this might bite you in the ass if you weren’t already using 2FA.

Interestingly I used to run into a similar issue when using Lastpass. When logging in from other IP addresses they would often do mandatory email 2FA, and of course I couldn’t get into the email account without Lastpass. But it sort of resolved itself since I also have email on my phone so I just had to make sure those Lastpass emails didn’t end up in spam or wherever.

If you’re not seeing anything of concern in the SMART info then there’s little to worry about. You could install/run smartctl from the command line, or for something with a gui try gsmartcontrol / any other app that can interact with your hard drive diagnostics.

Hard drives can last a long time, as a general rule if your hard drive made it through its first 1-2 years without issue then there’s a good chance it’ll keep chugging along for years. I personally haven’t found that hard drives consistently die in 5-7 years, not too sure where you got that info from.

In any case backups are your friend, not just in case the hard drive dies but there’s always the possibility that your entire OS blows up somehow or you get a bad case of malware.

I have photic sneeze reflex aka sudden exposure to bright light tends to make me sneeze. Usually happens if I’ve been indoors for a while and then walk out into a bright sunny day.

For a long time never really thought about it, just figured it was a normal thing. Wasn’t until adulthood that I started noticing most people don’t do that and looked it up. If Wikipedia is correct 18% - 35% of the world’s population has that condition.

Stuff like that already exists, it just isn’t overly popular or mainstream. You don’t even need to build that on bittorrent.

Off the top of my head both https://getaether.net/ and https://retroshare.cc/ are p2p for social media/forums that sort of thing but I’m sure there are others.

Interesting, is there a reason/discussion thread about that? Looked around a bit in the instance and the community but didn’t see anything. Are you talking about migrating the official community, or just splitting it into another instance?

Seems like a repost from the other LOTR memes community

If they’ve been dead for a while then the body is going to be quite decayed so that unfortunate person would end up dying again immediately.

Unless you’re suggesting this thing that came to life is no longer human. So in that case decayed body/flesh, missing organs/bodyparts, etc. no longer prevent it from “life”. But I’d argue that isn’t a human coming back to life, more like a corpse transforming into something else.

That’s a fun fact. Now it makes more sense that he also does voice acting on American Dad, I’d have to think he’s okay with all the violence/humor in Seth MacFarlane shows (American Dad, Family Guy, etc.) along with other “adult” animated works.

Hang them so the clothes can still air out but keep them separate from the 100% clean clothes e.g. section off part of a closet or use a different closet or rack or anything you can put clothes hangers on.

The whole thing sucks but your approach seems reasonable. In the grand scheme of things I’d prefer to be on an instance that allows NSFW even if that’s not what I’m normally interacting with on Lemmy. Plus a lot of things get lumped into the NSFW category which makes me wonder what else you’d end up blocking besides the pr0n stuff.

Maybe the alternative approach is just to not bother hosting in the UK while this legislation is active but I can appreciate that may not be something you want to bother pursuing.

Since you mentioned it cold brew coffee is less acidic vs hot coffee and I think(?) less than hot tea as well.

OTOH cold brewed tea probably edges out all of them in terms of low acidity.

Not too sure if you meant hot or cold tea, just adding some extra info :) For me cold brew coffee is way, way easier to drink and it’s become my daily go-to.

Haven’t heard of any, but I imagine something like that would be on its own Lemmy instance that may end up getting blocked by tons of other instances.

If you’re referring to watchpeopledie (?) that community migrated to their own image posting website after leaving Reddit.

Shake Shack’s Shroom Burger is by far the best non-meat burger I’ve had. I’m not even a big fan of mushrooms but Shake Shack manages to turn that portobello mushroom into deliciousness.

404 Media seems to fit your description.

For me it was eggs. My mom wasn’t that great a cook and she’d only make two types of eggs: hard boiled eggs or these sort of way way overcooked sunny side up eggs. Never liked either so grew up thinking I just don’t like eating eggs.

Later on as I got older I realized there are other egg dishes and I actually really like eggs. Scrambled eggs is pretty much my favorite breakfast. A close second is egg and cheese on a bagel.
