There are at least 2 dead people on the plane. I think I’d wait for another flight…

Login with Calculator: For when you don’t remember your PIN but you remember how you came up with it

The Notepad getting junk added is a Microsoft Store app. The old notepad.exe is still usable.

I can’t remember if it was at university or a job, but there was a server named ‘borg’ and on there localhost really would have been borg.

So much of the Verge is paywalled these days it’s completely understandable for someone not to bother clicking through.

$24.95/yr seems high. Are you looking at a specialty TLD? I paid around 10 USD/yr for a .com with Cloudflare, and 12 CAD/yr for a .ca with Canspace.

NetNewsWire doesn’t have its own accounts, but it can still sync your read items through iCloud.

Their web page doesn’t really mention self-hosting, but there’s github link way down at the bottom and that has self-hosting instructions.

It’s just a one-off transfer, I’m not planning to stop the transfer, and it’s my media library, so nothing should change, but I figured something resumable is a good idea for a transfer that’s going to take 12+ hours, in case there’s an unplanned stop.

I was planning to use rsync to ship several TB of stuff from my old NAS to my new one soon. Since we’re already talking about rsync, I guess I may as well ask if this is right way to go?

You can disable that

• On the Xbox home screen, go to “My Games and Apps.”
• Then, go to “Apps,” “Settings,” “General,” and “Personalization.”
• Go to “Games and Apps,” then scroll to the right until the three boxes below “Choose whether game hubs open automatically from the following places.”
• Uncheck the boxes on all three options: “Recently Played List,” “Groups,” and “Installed Games.”–

When was the last time you checked? A client was added to the WebOS store maybe 2 or 3 years ago for recent models, and support for older models (like my C9) came months later.

Since people don’t seem to realize that vim has a help system: You can get to this information with :help quit or :help exit

To be more precise, q means quit the current window. If you’ve split the window, e.g. with :split or :vsplit, use :qa to quit all windows.

lemmy.ca upgraded lemmy an hour or two before your post. Maybe one or both of the instances you’re looking at also upgraded recently and the problem has something to do with that.

How are you even alive if a tiny mistake like that is enough to give you a stroke?

So, your complaint isn’t that you were unjustly banned, just that Reddit is actually good at detecting ban evasion?

The music labels have responded by trying to make artists wait much longer before they can try something similar:

It’s significant, Greenstein said, that the first Taylor’s Version wasn’t released until she’d been off Big Machine for three years. Until then, she was legally bound not to re-record any of the material, and this time frame was typical of record deals in the past. But this is the part of the equation that Swift likely changed for good.

“For decades, major labels were somewhat rational when it came to the prohibition of re-recordings,” Greenstein said. “But now they’re going to be asking, ‘What’s the risk of a Taylor’s Version?’”

In response, record companies are now trying to prohibit re-recordings for 20 or 30 years, not just two or three. And this has become a key part of contract negotiations. “Will they get 30 years? Probably not, if the lawyer is competent. But they want to make sure that the artist’s vocal cords are not in good shape by the time they get around to re-recording.”

Microsoft owns id’s parent company these days, and Microsoft provides services to the Israeli military.

Slate: The Far Right Thinks Sydney Sweeney Killed Wokeness

It’s a common phenomenon, really. Sydney Sweeney is beautiful now, and would be considered so in any era. But because she’s no longer the only type of woman who’s considered beautiful, certain people on the right think they’re being oppressed and the world has gone to hell.

Why have these weirdos zeroed in on Sweeney in particular? There are lots of beautiful white women with big boobs out there—Kate Upton, Blake Lively, Katy Perry, Scarlett Johansson, Emily Ratajkowski, and more. As far as I can tell, part of it seems to be that Sweeney doesn’t shy away from talking about or sharing her body. On Euphoria, she does a lot of nudity, and she’s spoken in interviews about feeling comfortable with it. On SNL, she repeatedly joked about her boobs and even wore a Hooters uniform. The National Post praised Sweeney for “playfully owning her sex appeal with zero apologies” and criticized Vanity Fair for suggesting it might have been nice to give her some material that wasn’t about her beauty.
