Maybe woodworking? It can get dusty and you need some room but you can also make smaller things that don’t need big power tools or a lot of room. Like miniature things.

Or computer programming. Create an app. Or do something fun like follow one of the coding challenges from the YouTube channel The Coding Train

Where did they go to? From Apple to Microsoft to SpaceX to Apple?

I have this vpn because it comes for free with my Google Drive subscription. I have never used it because it does not do what I expect it to do

• privacy, it’s Google.
• pretend to be in a different country is not available

“I can’t get any joy from the work anymore. I used to get joy from it. Don’t get me wrong, the colleagues are nice and all”

Probably most of your colleagues will agree with you and nobody gets offended.

What I do is two things

• Go to the All view and block each community that has memes.
• subscribe to commutes that you like.

This ways, all your views are meme-free.

Bonus tip for finding new commuties: create a new account and go to your All view. Every post you see, check if you like the community. If you like it, subscribe to it on your normal account and then block it on your new account. The new account works kind of like check off system. Each community that you made a decision on (subscribe or don’t care) will no longer be visible on the new account. This way, other communities that are smaller will also be revealed.

I think it is because a dog has been seen as an object or tool for a long time. We are the owner. We buy the one that we like the most.

With humans we don’t have ownership over another human. The human is owned by itself. So we let everyone decide for themselves who the want to breed with. One person will select a partner that is nice, some like a “bad boy”, some like dark hair, blond, tall short, etc.

Also, humans are really not that different from each other while dogs can look like a completely different species.

What happens if you download something. Does it also upload while downloading?

Is it possible to download the torrent that you seed from outside your network by yourself? Mobile network, a friend or family wifi. To be sure that it does not download it all from someone else, create a torrent from a random file, upload it to a random tracker and download the torrent from outside your network.

Same with YouTube ads. Lots of scam’s and reporting it always ends in my report getting denied…

I need to stay awake some time during the night to feed the baby or support my wife doing it. I always fight against the sleep and that is when the pre-sleep dreams are really getting weird. What is happening a lot is that I read something and half way the sentence I fall half asleep and at that point, my mind completes the sentence(s) with the weirdest things.

In addition what others have already said, in the Gmail search bar it can search for mails that have an attachment larger than x mb. I did that some time ago and there where a lot large mails that were not worth it to save on disk

What if someone sets up an instance, make a post and manipulate the upvotes? Just give it a million upvotes. That would break the whole system…

Or a bit more subtle, every upvote is multiplied by 10.

That was an awesome game. I remember playing it with my friends and if you hit the top 10, we would write our name with ‘the best’.

It also had a level editor. I created one with a lot of jumps.

Good times!

Yeah, or download the blueray files and convert them yourself with something like HandBrake. It takes a lot of effort but does do the job…

I’m using a simple cheap usb switcher (Aten 2 x 4 USB 2.0 Switch). I have connected a mouse, keyboard, card reader. One machine is connect to the monitor via hdmi and the other via display port. I simply switch video via the buttons on the monitor. The third machine is a laptop that is not connected to the monitor.

A dedicated KVM would be a better option but I’m not willing to spend that much money.

Must be one of those electric cats then.

That is a long time ago that I have heard anyone say that. Wasn’t there a client software called DC++ or something like that?

That is an awesome sentence. I will use that one some time.

I personally think that everything has always gone to shit. But in the downfall, new things will take over until that goes to shit. Or maybe because there are new things the old things will go down.

Take the example of video stores. They used the be the best thing ever. Rent all the movies you would like to see for a small fee per movie. Then downloading and streaming came along. Streaming was cheaper and more convenient. Result: video renting business went to shit.

Then the streaming services started to raise their prices. It started going to shit. Soon new ideas/companies/services will swoop in and the cycle will repeat again.

Does this have anything to do with the whole email thing from the American military? According to the financial times, there are about 117.000 emails send to .ML addresses instead of .MIL…

Can’t answer it but isn’t the whole thing backed up (synced) to other instances? If I’m browsing lemmy.world community on my lemm.ee account, I’m actually only fetching data from lemm.ee. Only downside is that if there is an instance started after the community got lost, it will not have that community synced.
