Yeah I’m 100% not giving that cup back and am collecting as many different ones as I can.

Admittedly I’ll probably bring them home and never use them and throw them away in a few years because omg I have way to many cups I can’t handle this anymore. But still.

I’ve been the guy to send the do you still have this and then ghost before. I thought the button to instantly send the seller a message without confirming was the send this to a buddy button. Whoops sorry guys.

I made an account on a news site once just to test Firefox relay and my custom domain. Can’t for the life of me figure out how to delete the account. Had to set relay to just block all the emails. To the tube of like 400… In less than a month

6. I can’t have both an android and iPhone connected at the same time, because I won’t be able to use Android Auto, I’m forced into Car Play

Just got a new work truck, a Ford, with android auto and car play. This morning was the first time I plugged an iPhone and android in at the same time. I had plugged in the android first and a quick look I wasn’t able to switch to the iPhone without unplugging the android. I never plugged the android back in so idk if it prefers one over the other or just whatever is plugged in first. Could that be the same issue?

Ahhhh ok. That does make more sense.

The way I heard it the insurance companies lobbied for seatbelt laws.

Something about if you die in an accident the payout could be larger than if you survived.

Opposite for motorcycles and helmets. On a bike you aren’t eligible for the same death payout as someone in a car so it’s cheaper if you die.

Again this is just how I heard it and I’ve never cared enough to actually look into any of this at all but on the surface and seems plausible.

“leaks” about Google blocking ad blockers got me to switch to Firefox in October last year. Was worth the risk. Took the time to also leave googles password manager and switch to bitwarden as well.

I saw something about them the other day and thought to myself there is no way this is real because they were offering something like 10tb for like 800 bucks. Lifetime sub. I guess they mostly count on people just not using anywhere near that much storage.

Makes sense. I would want it to back up my main machine somewhere though. I guess I would have to go cloud or finally bite the bullet on a NAS.

What’s the difference between syncthing and just setting up a NAS? basically just not having to buy the hardware and using the computer you already have?

Lol I got home from work and opened Lemmy.world. page loaded fine but I couldn’t upvote and the comments wouldn’t load. Tried again after restarting firefox and same thing. Switched to Lemdro.id and continued like it wasn’t happening.

Yeah that’s true. Just feels different when it’s a company and not potentially some random person in their basement.

I guess its really not in the big scheme. Idk just makes me nervous counting on so many people to store and manage my password in a smart way but I don’t know a lot about Lemmy or activitypub so maybe that’s all handles outside of instance admin control.

Remove yes but not transition it to a new instance. But this is one of the reasons I’m using a temp email and unique username and password for each account that isn’t tied anywhere else. More things are easy to gather together knowledge wise compared to say reddit.

I don’t personally use it but pixelfed is an Instagram type of site. It’s part of the fediverse as well.

Idk how I feel about easily migrating accounts from one instance to another or even having my password pass between instances on activypub. If it’s easy to migrate an account then it would be possible for an admin of a rogue instance or even just a rogue admin of a perfectly fine instance to take your account. One thing I learned since joining is these accounts are kind of disposable. Personally I only have 2 on 2 different instances one of which is lemmy.world which is/has grown a whole bunch in the last few weeks. Personally idk how that kind of growth is sustainable on this kind of platform and I’m not shocked they are running into issues. When an instance explodes the way lemmy.world has they need to make an extreme investment into the server side of the instance to keep things running smoothly and that doesn’t stay cheap or easy for very long.
