  • Well you say you can use a VPN, but you may often see that you’re not able to edit using a VPN IP if that IP block has been used for vandalism in the past. So then you’d have to potentially revert to a coffee shop or library which would still identify your location.

  • If you’re behind a CG NAT (carrier grade NAT), you’ll be doubly in trouble as it will be essentially impossible to get a forwarded port since your “IP” is essentially a LAN address within your ISP’s CG NAT, if that makes sense.

  • For some reason I just got a flashback to that football kid who tried to steal crab legs by putting them down his pants. I’m just imagining these thieves walking out with 40 tons of beef overflowing from their pants.

  • Apple seeks search partner, must have $20 billion

    If this penalty sticks, Apple could be looking for a new suitor. Something has to be the default search provider in Safari and other Apple products.

    Does something really have to replace it? Why not a menu of options? Make the user choose something. If they choose Google, great! If they choose DDG, fantastic! Whatever it is, make it a choice.

  • Honestly I find it quite useful, and I’m glad they found a way to do it with increased privacy. I will only use duck.ai if I want to use an AI tool.

    But I can understand some people wanting it off entirely so hats off to DDG for keeping that as a core feature.

    Simplifi vs Monarch Money

    Pretty much as the title says.

    The wife and I are currently using Simplifi and it works well enough, but I’ve been hearing a decent amount about Monarch Money. Just curious if anyone here has tried both and why they prefer one vs the other. Even if you haven’t tried Simplifi, if you’ve used Monarch, I’d be curious your opinions of it!

    TIL Dior has released a $230 'scented water' for babies. It's significantly more expensive than its bestselling fragrances for adults.

    Mildly Interesting @lemmy.world

    Other relevant quote from the article:

    The scented water is part of the new Baby Dior skincare collection, which also includes a $115 moisturizer for babies and a $95 cleansing foam.

    Recommendations for cappuccino mugs

    With the state of Amazon currently, I can’t tell what is good and what is crap on there anymore. So I wanted to ask you fine people if you had any recommendations on cappuccino mugs. Not super worried about cost, but also don’t want to break the bank for some mugs.

    Any recommendations / thoughts appreciated!

    Please help me to get started

    Hello!

    I recently got a new espresso machine (a Breville Barista Express if that helps at all), and I have no idea how to get started picking espresso beans. I think I’d like a milder, darker roast for either lattes / cappuccinos but also good for drinking straight.

    Where do I even go about finding a good bag of beans? Are there any recommended sites? Do you just go to your grocery store?

    Any other advice for a brand-new first timer?

    Any help is greatly appreciated!
