  • No. COVID didn't lead to this. Their insane greed lead to this. We were more than happy to pay a fair price to own a product, but no... they wanted more, and more, and more, and, eventually, we had enough. The fact that it happened during a pandemic is irrelevant, because it didn't lead to this. Their greed lead to this.

  • Not just hiding, but actively blocking. Pissants.

  • But it should be optional with a very clear "if you don't have this account then X could happen" warning and agreement. I don't want a ms account, and my computer shouldn't force me into it. That's my gripe with that bit.

  • Not sure Linux busts in like this. It just, sorta walks in like it owns the place. "Door was locked? It wasn't for me."

  • I'm literally dealing with this shit now.

  • And they're so much more comfortable, it's ridiculous. It's like the shoe industry decided, several decades ago, that men don't want comfortable shoes.

  • Bugs me, too. I only use it when I absolutely have to. But it is free.

  • Wait. I never thought of that. The rays do cause cancer. Where do I vote against them? We must darken those cancer rays! Think of the children!

  • Even above 10MW, I think it allows them, so long as they don't connect back to the main grid. But, I'm not a lawyer, and the language they used is very lawyery.

  • Senate Bill 819 requires solar and wind projects of 10 MW or larger to obtain a permit from the Texas Utilities Commission to interconnect to the grid.

    Can the homeowners just do home solar and not interconnect it to the grid? I mean, can they get off the grid altogether, while doing solar for their individual homes? Or maybe, neighborhood-wide solar grids that are off the TUC's city grid? Or am I misunderstanding?

  • The mooInk V includes a reading mode allowing it to be held half-folded like a paperback.

    The ereader has a reading mode?? This changes everything!

  • Security and privacy are not the same thing. For that matter, neither is anonymity.

  • "security features", in this case, actually means "ecosystem lockdown features".

    OnlyOffice every single time I flip between it and another app

    If I'm writing a paper or story or whatnot, I do not want to stop to update the app right now, and asking me every flippin time I go from the research sources to OnlyOffice only makes me want to pull all my support from your nagging shite software. 'Next Time' needs to wait until the next day, not for the next time the app comes to focus. Flippin wankers.

    I did the cutout

    Someone posted a printable cutout of the Moomin House, so I resized it, and had a fun time putting it together.

    I cut out the under-stairs door and placed the magic tophat in there.

    If there are no objections, I can post the resized version here. Mods, just let me know if that's ok to do.

    Edit: By request, please see the pages below. When you print them, make sure they're simplex and all to the same sizing percentage. I happen to have Letter size paper at home (216x270cm, 8.5x11in), so they're sized for that.

    Website hosters of Lemmy, which hosting service do you use and why?

    I'm looking to host a website for an organisation I run. I'm very familiar with WordPress and somewhat familiar with Drupal, but am highly technical and can learn other technologies. I do feel that a WordPress-type crm might be overkill, as I am not looking for user interaction on the site. I'm good with html, js, and css, so would not be opposed to a barebones provider.

    Basically, who is everyone using, and what considerations went into that decision?

    I have crossposted this question on .ml, as well, but can't properly link each on the other.

    NewPipe v0.27.0 No longer Working?

    Has NewPipe v0.27.0 stopped working for anyone else? It won't play anymore. It loads the video page and comments, but throws an error when attempting to play or download the video. I've submitted an error report, but was wondering if anyone else is experiencing this.

    Edit: thank you, everyone! I figured it was google being a giant turd again, but want sure, since it worked perfectly fine for me yesterday, and I didn't see anything pop up on Lemmy yet. I understand the logistical and costing nightmare of this, but we really need a FOSS decentralized video sharing platform to take hold and take off. Let google and other bigturdtech die where they made their beds.

    Update: newpipe 0.27.1 was just released, which fixes this deliberately google-caused issue. As I understand, some other frontends implemented their own fixes, too. These teams are amazing!

    How do I resize this band

    There are no arrows, no obvious pins, no pin latches. This band is different than all of the ones I've ever sized. Does anyone know how to remove links from this band?

    Edit: user Septimaeus was correct in that it was a fixed link band. The link they provided helped in understanding what is requires to resize, and the band now fits my wrist like it was made for it. Thanks!!

    Do InvisibleFence brand controller units work with non-IF collars?

    Do InvisibleFence brand controller units work with non-InvisibleFence brand collars?

    I have an InvisibleFence brand controller unit, and would like to get a collar for it. The InvisibleFence brand stuff requires their techs come out to your house and do whatever it is that they do (at a significantly higher cost). If the controller unit works (tested and verified), will other brand collars work with it?

    Edit: Some of the other brands do work with the InvisibleFence brand underground system, as long as the collar is also designed for the same type of system (the collar should be called something like 'receiver collar'). The issue I'm running into, though, is that I don't like the shock collars, in general. While not as restrictive or cruel as an 8m tether, according to the vets I've spoken to, I still find it needlessly cruel. So, I'm working with the landlord to allow me to install an above ground fence with a dig protection system. It's going to be very expensive, but I'm hoping I c

    Rip and index DVDs?

    Are there any automatic or semiautomatic tools that will rip a set of DVDs from a tv show, and label the resulting vids (like Show name - s##e## or similar)?

    I want to digitize entire series (of DVDs I own) for an in-home streaming server, and it's super annoying to name each file individually.

    ADHD @lemmy.world
    𝕸𝖔𝖘𝖘 @infosec.pub

    The worst part of ADHD (IMO)

    The impulsivity is bad, wasted so much money and time. The hyperfocus, when on the wrong task, has cost me hours in that day. The poor planning / time management has landed me in a world of hurt more times than I care to admit. The low tolerance for distractions / hot temper has caused me to hurt those whom I love most in this world. The inability to properly direct my focus on a task has caused me to lose sight of, and therefore miss, deadlines.

    That's all bad.

    But the worst part for me? The part that doctors don't seem to even attempt to address (except for direct symptom management, which barely work)? Emotional mirroring. If you're depressed and I'm with you, guess what happens to me? Today sucked. Depression is an unrelenting bitch, and I hate her with every fiber of my being.

    I can't find this post on finding CSAM on Lemmy

    Yesterday, I was reading this post on an open source solution to detecting and deleting CSAM material on Lemmy. I was reading the post, then my browser crashed mid-read. I've been looking for it ever since, and can't find it. Can anyone link it?

    Fireweed Coffee Co. Ethiopia Yorgacheffe

    Black tea is strong, as are fruity notes (blackberry, maybe?). The acidity of the kiwi is there somewhat, but mostly, I taste its sweetness. I'm not sure I taste the lemongrass at all, but that's not saying much, as it could just be masked by the other notes. Overall, this is a very nice roast.

    Where can I get more of these plastic caps?

    I have these wire shelves that are held together with these plastic caps. I'm reconfiguring the layout and ran out of caps. It's been a decade+/- since we got these, and I can't remember the name. Does anyone know where I can get more of these caps? Or, at least, what these caps and/or shelves are called, so I can go hunting for them?
