2·1 year agoYes, you’re right. Headline probably translated because it’s not a clear way to say this. Also was surprised that gold bars are only 2K each, but I see the common size is 1 oz and they aren’t very big…
“Gifted” is a bit of a stretch. They were found in a package addressed to the Red Cross. Rightfully delivered, perhaps.
Don’t look down.
2·1 year agomaybe not the healthiest, but these are some of my favorites https://quex.cc/c/recipes
2·1 year agoI don’t blame you re the third party - I wouldn’t either. I generally download a transaction file periodically and import it locally using the app. I think you’re going to find it difficult to find an API that will allow little people access, even though they are obviously happy to offer that to the big companies. Some of the brokerages have checking accounts and it might be possible to pull the transaction data via the brokers API (maybe), but whichever way you look at it, I suspect the most pragmatic solution is probably going to be a download/import of some kind.
what are you looking to do? I don’t know of any consumer bank APIs but most equity and exchange brokerages will let you check account balances and make trades with an API key and credentials. Probably not initiate payments or transfers though. There are too many security risks involved for allowing that via a consumer-level API. There are also tools like Mint that store your credentials and can presumably access your data because they have corporate level agreements with the Financial institutions - I haven’t used that and would not normally recommend a corporate-based solution like that personally, but it might work for your needs.
On the standard Lemmy UI on Android if you click the site logo, top left, you should then see a sidebar button that contains the modlog link.
I don’t know if it helps or not for me to point this out (I hope it’s something that gives you some solace), but depending on the circumstances it’s also very difficult to go through an investigation and trial. Maybe things are better now, but 20 or 30 years back it was an ordeal for the victim. The “what were you wearing?” mentality was very prevalent within the male-dominated judiciary and they made it so hard on the victims that they often felt like they were on trial - and in many cases they still didn’t get justice either, despite their personal lives being dissected in front of a room full of strangers, some of whom were intent on falsely portraying them as promiscuous. After seeing this happen to a friend, I lost faith in the system to deliver justice. I don’t have a solution, but an adversarial system just doesn’t seem ideal for this kind of prosecution.

A standard three-bedroom cave home with living room, kitchen, and bathroom can be excavated out of the rock in the hillside for a similar price to building a house on the surface. However, dugouts remain at a constant temperature, while surface buildings need expensive air-conditioning.
181·1 year agoSpeaking to CNN‘s Fareed Zakaria on Friday, President Biden said he needed to send cluster bombs because Ukraine and the US are running out of ammunition. “This is a war relating to munitions. And they’re running out of that ammunition, and we’re low on it,” he said.
the FY2023 presidential budget request was $842 billion https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Military_budget_of_the_United_States
not enough for ammo, apparently.
Yes, I agree - there have always been malevolent forces at work within the media - but before facebook started algorithmically whipping up old folks for clicks, cable TV news wasn’t quite as savage. The early days of hate-talk radio was really just Limbaugh ranting into the AM ether. Now, it’s saturated. Social media isn’t the root cause of political hatred but it gave it a bullhorn and a leg up to apparent legitimacy.
the damage that corporate social media has inflicted on our social fabric and political discourse is beyond anything we could have imagined.

Somebody asked for soldering tips on Lemmy today and got several thoughtful responses within 5 minutes. That’s pretty amazing compared to the feed a few weeks ago.
solder flows towards the heat. Just get the tip good and hot. Once the solder melts on the iron immediately it’s good to go.
Alligator clips can help hold wires in place while you’re soldering them.
have something underneath the joint that hot solder can drip onto without any problem.
