hitmyspot,

How do you access lemmy? I use connect for lemmy on iPad and android. It has an option for default sort type for comments and posts. Unfortunately, scaled is not yet an option, since it was introduced in lemmy, but hot and top are options.

hitmyspot,

Crashed the family car on my first day driving. Into our house. Our driveway is a mini hill with a turn to get in and then loop to the side with the corner of the house being at the corner. Accelerating up the little hill meant the house jumped in front of the car! As it was my first time driving, the blame was placed. Firmly on dad, as teacher.

Luckily the damage wasn’t too bad to repair, but still the two most expensive things were broken on one day.

hitmyspot,

Lol, probably the spellcheck inputs. I also have a new keyboard that means muscle memory is a bit off.

I am not a robot. Promise. But that’s what a robot would say.

hitmyspot,

Lol, the comments from network 10 and endemol are asinine. Basically, they know its just for the money and no benefit.

Do people still watch masterchef? I havnt seen or heard much about it in years. Is it still the guy who doesn’t pay his staff or was that too much bad publicity, but sponsorship from polluters is fine?

hitmyspot,

To do so, there would need to be a centralized or federated list of all accounts. If it was centralized it would be against federation principles. If it was federated, then anyone who sets up a server would potentially have access to all email addresses. Perhaps,more in the style of email, like @user but that would likely lead to more confusion as people would put their email and it is essentially the same information.

I do agree that log in as the opening page is not a great experience. Helping people to find an instance should be easier to filter. Rather than a list by popularity, let them know choosing by interest or location can help find relevant content and have easy to use clickable filters to do so.

hitmyspot,

After the expiry of the copyright i assume.

hitmyspot,

I’m surprised they made 440m. However, investing in r+d is not unusual. This amount is not a huge investment for them based in overall revenue.

hitmyspot,

Not really. There are multiple instances which limits the chance. I assume some are able to access reddit too. Also, I’ve had more unreliability with Lemmy as its small servers and the code has often required restarts to fix issues.

Lemmy is fallible, just like anything else.

hitmyspot,

The entire network can be down. Its just harder as there is some built in redundancy. I’m sure reddit also has built in redundancy.

When my local instance is down, I use my alternate. Its much worse as its not as curated. Sure, there are apps to help sync them now but my instance is now reliable enough that inhavmt bothered.

I think it’s important to be realistic in the capabilities of Lemmy in looking at competing services.

hitmyspot,

It would be nice to have options. Log in with a new log In. Use your existing log in and join accounts. Use your existing log In and sandbox them.

Ring customers get $5.6 million in privacy breach settlement (www.bleepingcomputer.com)

The Federal Trade Commission is sending $5.6 million in refunds to Ring users whose private video feeds were accessed without consent by Amazon employees and contractors, or had their accounts and devices hacked because of insufficient security protections.

hitmyspot,

Its a pity that copyrighted material, that artists sell, so want to be seen, for a fee, is fined at $10000 per breach for piracy. But when its peoples privacy that they don’t want public viewing, its a pittance.

hitmyspot,

If its illegal to share in Australia and happened in Australia, then I can see ho legally there is a distinction. However, the same would be true of Tiananmen square.

One government should not have control outside its borders. The USA has already eroded this with their attempt to get Assange. This is just a natural extension of that.

Government control ends at our borders. So does other countries.

hitmyspot,

Lately? He’s old, tired, orange, overweight and covered in makeupwith a ludicrous hairstyle to hide his appearance.

hitmyspot,

Greekish type Salad, coconut breaded prawns and spanakopita.

hitmyspot,

It’s an Australian onion.

Ireland has Waterford whispers news.

I’m sure most countries have a satire news site, these days. They can be hit and miss, but often the hits are worth the misses.

hitmyspot,

Difficult to manage their supply chains? This means look the other way.

If they really wanted to, they could very easily avoid north Korean outsourcing. I have never accidentally outsourced to north Korea.

Check the contracts as part of the investigation. If there was no requirement to keep confidentiality or prevent the use ofnslave labor, its willful. If there was and there were nonchecks, its effectively the same thing.

Fine the company double the total amount they paid to outsource at a minimum. It would be interesting if we had fines based on total revenue. As an original for amazon, that’s a huge chunk of change. Of course, the company would be legally distant from the main ownership, but one can dream.

hitmyspot,

Oh, I don’t doubt that. However the fact that presumable neither of us work in outsourcing and can deduce that makes it seem willful ignorance.

hitmyspot,

That goes to my overton window shift point. The amount of shift is still a spectrum. What are now moderate Republicans may not have been considered moderate before, but there are degrees before batshit.

hitmyspot,

Not if you look at the rate of change as well as the change. If it’s trending towards zero, it can be a curve rather than straight line. That can then trend negative.

Think of a car going fast, then applying the brakes. It slows down until it eventually stops.

Now think of a boat. It doesn’t have a brake. It has a reverse throttle. When you want to slow down, the motor goes backwards. When you hit zero, you start to then go backwards. That’s what they are extrapolating.

hitmyspot,

Yes, I agree. However, looking at other similar data could lead to that conclusion. I don’t necessarily agree, but its not that left field.

I was even simplifying as in didn’t want to look at juatbthebrate of change but also the difference between positive and negative values.

hitmyspot,

The article is overreaching a bit. They inokybthat because he advocates for free speech, that he shiukdnt have the same protections under the law. Does that mean if someone advocates for non death penalty, that it shouldn’t apply in their case? Or is it only the case when it suits a narrative.

Poor reporting over what seems to be a minor incident. They have the right to private enjoyment of their home. She has the right to protest.

hitmyspot,

Yes, but that cool factor was more valuable as a marketing tool than a reveal in the film. It wasn’t a plot point so, I don’t blame them too much but it did reduce the impact in the cinema.

hitmyspot,

Nope, he’s crazy. And someone told him a wind turbine conspiracy once and he runs with it.

hitmyspot,

No, I get the point. I also realize that overtourisn is bad, by definition. Tourism is not inherently bad, though.

By artificially worsening tourism like this, it will lead to less tourists, butbalsona poorer experience for other tourists. This will lead to a reduction in investment in infrastructure, or amenities, like the Rijksmuseum. Locals benefit from the money tourists bring in more ways than just being a business that is tourist facing.

Yes, the hotels can renovate. But only to reduce capacity. The reason for hotels to renovate is competition or increase capacity. Without either, why bother. It will be less hassle and more profitable not to renovate. That’s my issue. Its inventivising decrepid hotels and bad infrastructure.

Tourism broadens the mind. We should look at more sustainable tourism and using tourism money as a tool to rejuvenate, rather than impinge.

Airbnbs often get blamed, but if hotels were sufficient and reasonable, airbnb becomes a poor proposition with its silly rules and extra hassle. We should appropriately tax and regulate what is now unregulated. Compact Eco friendly hotels in less congested areas encourages responsible tourism.

Its like bike culture, there. If you want people to move from cars, you don’t let the roads deteriorate to dangerous levels. You ensure there is alternative infrastructure like public transport and bicycle lanes.
