How did you lose weight?

  • That’s amazing! Congrats on sobriety.

    • What's a last name (family/surname) that you think is cool?

  • In high school I knew a guy named Mark Outlaw. Never have I heard a cooler name.

    • First game you played

  • I don’t remember exactly, but it would have been on the Atari 2600. Probably Pac-Man or Q-Bert.

    • What are some "cool" "tricks" to "teach your cat?

  • I used treats to teach my cat to come to me when I ring a bell.

    She already knew the sound of a treat dropping on the hard floor so I would ring the bell and then drop the treat. Eventually I switched to just ringing the bell and she would come running.

    • Why do you use firefox?

  • What are you using for your sync server? I did some preliminary searching recently and it looks like there are a few different options.

    • What do you call Marshmallow in your native language?

  • Nice username. I'm seeing them in concert next month!

    • ADMIN, isn't it time to move from lemmy.world?

  • Right, but it’s possible to execute those API requests to trigger those expensive database requests in a way that wouldn’t necessarily trigger cloudflare’s DDoS protection.

    • ADMIN, isn't it time to move from lemmy.world?

  • They explained that the attacks are in the form of requests that tax the database server, not the website itself.

    • How do you guys remember the early days of the internet? What do you miss about it?

  • I want to be on record as being kind to our robot overlords, so I'd say "good bot" for good measure.

    • Best options for cross device RSS sync?

  • I'll add another vote for FreshRSS. I'm on iOS, but I like the web app a lot.

    • What website/app do you use to read ebooks?

  • This is what I do. First thing I do is check the library through Libby and if they don’t have it I’ll buy it for Kindle.

    • Why do people call it DM?

  • I think Twitter might have been the first time I saw DM used but it stands for direct message.

    • Popular Hardware for Self Hosters?

  • This is pretty much exactly what I do. I'm partial to Debian though.

    • What Wi-Fi networking gear you guys use?

  • Yet another Unifi user here. I use a UAP-AC-LR (long range). I have a two story house so I mounted it in the stairway landing wall. It covers the house pretty well.

    • What browser extensions do you use?

  • Thanks for the input. I'll give ublock a try.

    • BookWyrm is the Federated GoodReads Replacement I Didn’t Know I Needed

  • I tried it a few months ago and had a similar experience. I do love the idea though.

    • What browser extensions do you use?

    • Bitwarden
    • FoxyProxy
    • DuckDuckGo
    • AdBlocker Ultimate
    • Privacy Badger
    • LocalCDN

    • Is Windows 11 worth installing over 10?

  • Eventually, Microsoft will stop supporting Windows 10. Sure, it will be around for a while, but I just assume upgrade and keep up with the latest version.

    That being said, I do mainly use Linux. I just use Windows for gaming. I know Linux has improved a lot lately for running games, I just haven't tried it out for that purpose yet.
