Some consider it a hassle, others of us obsessively enjoy manually downloading and sorting our files into our folder structure.
I’ve got a collection going back to a 128k MP3 from a Napster download in 2000. Hundreds of gigabytes of lossless music.
Bandcamp is great, but I use Redacted for those I can’t easily find.
I dunno much about burning cars. Is this effective? Seems like dumping it underneath might result in a better fire, but not as showy for the camera. The windshield doesn’t strike me as a particularly flame affected area, but it looks like a bunch drained down into the engine bay.
Time to rewatch The Wire season 2.
Damn that takes some skill, wonder how many times drone pilots have tried this in total.
I was always taught that the towel's final role is to abrade and collect the dirt/grime/skin that has been loosened by showering, but that wasn't washed away (which iirc is mostly just the skin and oily grime, not dirt or other large particulates).
This is nasty to me. Do you not scrub yourself in the shower? Like, if you have dirty hands, and wash them in the sink, you can dry your hands on a white towel and it should not get dirty. Same for your body except you usually have more scrubbing tools to exfoliate your skin and remove the dirt so you should be even cleaner come dry time.
I don’t know that I’d call my used towel “clean” per se, but it’s certainly not dirty. It’s not doing any cleaning or removal of anything, just patting up water.
Just do the cheap unlimited personal plan and hook up a shit load of external HDDs to your PC. I have a system where my NAS syncs to my PC which syncs to Backblaze so I can sorta hack my way into unlimited NAS backup for $10/mo.
3-2-1 backup where the primary source of data is the NAS, on site backup is desktop PC external HDDs, off site backup is Backblaze.
Ten, twelve years ago this exploit was the shit. I was in the military at the time and used Backtrack r5 lots while traveling around to get internet when I didn’t have access. All it has to do is guess a 4 digit code and a 3 digit code separately, once you hit success on the WPA PIN you get the SSID and password. Takes a couple hours if it’s not a default PIN IIRC. Coolest script kiddie thing I did since sending Sub7 to people back in the early 00s.
These days I don’t really bother. You might be able to pull it off on some really old hardware which does exist, but anyone who got a router in the past 6-8 years likely wouldn’t be susceptible. Might as well try exploiting your own router just to see.
Backblaze as well. Can’t believe they let me store 20TB of backups for $10/mo.
With alcohol it's very clear that there's one organ doing the heavy lifting
It’s not your liver, it’s your GABA receptors downregulating that gives you a tolerance. Your liver helps with the duration and hangover but the lower peak intoxication is mediated by the receptors. Likewise with cannabis, your THC receptors downregulate to give you a weed tolerance. It is also processed by the liver.
They also have worse color rendering index so it’s more difficult to distinguish objects despite more lumens.
Wonder if they mistook them for Japanese torpedo boats.
WPA2 exploit has been mostly fixed for years now, and it’s only the router that’s affected. They just needed to implement some rate limiting on guessing WPA PINs. I stopped cracking a majority of routers this way 10 years ago or so. Only someone running a very outdated router at this point would be susceptible. Update your firmware, turn off WPA PIN access, enjoy.
Sealed beam headlights are the whole thing, lens, reflector, bulb all in one assembly. You don’t replace the bulb with these, you replace the entire light. Think old cars/trucks when everything had standardized round glass headlights. Not unique designs per model.
Because Mercedes Benz couldn’t use their fancy euro headlights for cars in the US, they had to use the standardized sealed beam lights, which were not as powerful.

Article is basically an ad
How many times a day are you shown ads that are completely irrelevant?
Me personally, I’ve never once experienced the “they’re listening to my mic for ads” phenomenon. I think someone would notice by now either by seeing increased upload usage or a hot device- at least with current technology. On device machine learning will make this much easier to analyze without having to upload audio.
Not that I don’t think it’s entirely possible to listen right now, I just don’t think it’s occurring to unimportant people. I’m not particularly important or rich nor is anyone I know. It seems much more plausible to me that we’re just seeing conventional web tracking get a lot better + a healthy dose of confirmation bias.
What this demonstrates is how good tracking is now. They’re not listening to your microphone, at least not while your phone is in your pocket or whatever, because they don’t need to. They can already see your fingerprint, what websites you’re visiting, what your searching, and all of this applies to people you know as well- people who likely aren’t privacy conscious and share all contact info with whatever app is requesting. Listening to the mic is not necessary to suggest highly relevant ads.
Tiny needles make it pretty easy, if you can do phlebotomy you can shoot up with a 31ga needle. I was in lab tech school in the military and ended up shooting dope sometime in the 00s, but stopped before I got in any serious trouble. Those people who have to hit weird veins in odd places because they’ve ruined the rest blow my mind though. I guess if it’s between that and being dope sick it’s worth it in the short term.

Microsoft is not buying Valve and Counter-Strike for £12 billion
A rumour that Microsoft wants to take over the PC market with a £12 billion acquisition of Valve is being ridiculed on social media.
Transfer favorite communities between accounts?
Is it possible to transfer favorite communities from an account on one server to another? Say for example I'd like to have an alt with the same favorites on another server for a backup. Is this possible with wefwef or other means?
Looking to get my main off lemmy.world to help load balance, but I don't want to refavorite everything; if I could somehow keep them in sync that would be ideal.
