Yeah they really buried some critical information on this one. I get the point of the article about general surveillance but when people feel tricked they get burned out on the issue and trust the media less. They could have made the point they wanted without making it clickbait.

I thought it was just (or mostly) partial pressure of O2 when it comes to hemoglobin? It’s been about 15 years since I was in school so I might remember wrong.

Does that mean that if we took something rusty and put it in an environment without oxygen it would start to release oxygen from the rust?

You obviously have good taste 👌😁 (no /s)

Sorry, I forgot to check for replies til now. I’m using almost the exact set of services the other commenter is, minus mullvad (proton is fine for me), backblaze (I have a homelab with a lot of redundant storage capacity and have enough important stuff backed up to the cloud in other ways I’m fine with having to rebuild the rest if something big happens), and standard notes (but I have been considering switching to it just this week, just haven’t done the research).

How did you identify the problem and get ComEd to look into it? My UPS is switching inconsistently, sometimes a couple times a day, and I’ve seen some signs that makes me think it’s not just that UPS/outlet/breaker. I wasn’t at the point where I was going to do anything yet but since you’re talking about the same provider I have I figured I’d ask. I have a multimeter, oscilloscope and smart plugs that watch voltage/amperage/power.

This is a great description of nicotine addiction (I’m a vaper, but have smoked). I’d highly recommend anyone who’s considering it to not bother even if you’re impulsive and having a stressful time. Imagine adding another biological need like sleeping to your plate when after a few months all it’ll do for you is allow you to stop thinking about it for a bit. No more buzz. Just cravings and knowing where the exits are.

I’ll tack on to what the other commenter said:

• Cost: I considered myself a heavy searcher (software engineer and gamer) and have been surprised to see I have rarely exceeded even half of my allotted searches ($5/mo, 300 searches). I’m now reprogramming my brain to stop turning to alternatives when something should be easy to find because “I might use up all my queries”.
• Better: apart from all of the cool features, and there are many, there’s also that it just “feels better”. I don’t know how to qualify that despite being a professional in that world. It’s kinda the opposite feeling that I had using Google over the last 5+ years where I wondered if I was getting dumber or if the internet (and Google) was absolutely full of garbage.

It’s on the very short list of subscriptions I pay for right now despite having a very limited budget at the moment.

What do you mean?

Agreed, the data will not be scrubbed, just marked as reclaimable.

Yeah I’m with you, both are awful and in my mind constantly. Just be careful because you’re offending people who for the most part have similar values, and those that don’t, aren’t here to listen. I know how frustrating it is to feel like there’s nothing I can do about something that nobody else seems to care about.

sudo

As root

find /srv/lemmy/example.com/volumes/pictrs/files

Find files in /srv/lemmy... that:

-type f

Are plain files (not directories, symlinks, etc; includes images)

-ctime -1

And were created within an amount of time (probably last day, haven’t used this flag in a while)

-exec rm {} \\;

For each matching file found execute rm on it (delete it).

What’s going on, bud? I’ve seen your comments a bunch of times and while I’ve disagreed with some I’ve never seen you divorced from reality like this. Are you ok?

When I was on the fire department (late 2000s) we bought cars for like $75 each to practice disassembling, I assume from the junkyard. I bet the price hasn’t changed too much.

Also who are you and why are you in my apartment going through my shit?
