I have a habit of using a flashlight to go to the toilet in hotels or unfamiliar places, so I don't stub my toe or other stupid stuff when doing the nightly toilet sleep walk.
So I grab the flashlight, point it around and notice a glint from the ceiling fan. The ceiling fan didn't have an IR remote so it didn't make sense and yup, sure enough it was a little lens that conveniently pointed towards the bed.
Fun thing: We actually signed a waiver that the house uses cameras, since there were a view regular ones on the perimeter for security, which seemed logical. That asshole really tried to play the "but you signed that you're okay with being filmed" card.
Stopped using them once my girlfriend and I found a hidden camera.
Sueing was much more stressful than just getting a regular hotel. Never again.
Could someone explain what I'm missing here? Seeing this for the first time and it just seems like random words.
We definitely need Blender in the mix as well!
Also Signal, Bitwarden and Firefox.
Coldest was probably -20 °C, hottest around 40 °C.
My comfort temperature is right around 15 °C. Anything higher than 20 °C and I start sweating.
My girlfriend wants to go to Egypt for vacation this year. That's going to be fun...
Most papers will be in PDF format and may contain colors as well. E-Ink is slowly getting there, especially with the rise of digital comics, but for the time being I wouldn't trade my iPad and Pencil combo.
It is literally free. Just download and find out if you like it.
Personally, I would recommend it!
Not only is Rudd doing and amazing job as admin of the instance, they are also really transparent ab ob it the challenges in their frequent updates!
I see what you mean, but there's also a large number of lurkers, who will only vote but never comment.
I don't think it's unfeasible to have a small number of comments on a highly upvoted post.
Honestly, this brigading for FOSS on Lemmy is a bit annoying. Suppose the dev decides to charge a one-time fee once the app is mostly stable and done. FOSS wouldn't be a good option for that.
Personally, with the amount of effort Kuro is putting in, I hope he has a solid monetization plan in the works, because this app could become one of the more popular ones for Lemmy and they more than deserve earning money for their hard work, that is not relying on donations.
Interestingly enough, I am missing a few subs on lemmy.world instead.
Nope, it's an absolute nightmare. The post basically outlines how you could feasibly exploit data across a majority of the Lemmy network without much effort at all.
With a bit more effort you could also link the Lemmy accounts to the users email, as becoming an admin is as simple as hosting your own instance and getting users to join.
Boom you have a business case of profiling people on Lemmy and selling those profiles to advertisers, stalkers and perverts alike.
It is a pretty big deal. What it essentially means is that you are completely exposed, if you pardon the pun.
And yes, absolutely everyone with basic IT skills has access to this data as it is shared across instances. All it takes is a couple minutes to deploy a docker image and boom, I'm somewhat of an admin myself.
The fact that this data is stored in plain is a major security and privacy issue that makes me rethink this platform.
"Curating" makes it sound like you are some kind of porn connoisseur.
I mean let's be real: Anyone with a fraction of self-respect would walk away from this dumpster fire after being repeatedly called noise by the idiots running the website.
But on the other hand I have to admit that Spez was completely right. This did blow over rather nicely for Reddit, since any publicity is good publicity and it seems like most of it is business as usual minus actually good apps.
So basically, u/Spez was right and people really are addicts. Shame, but not entirely unexpected.
Connect for Lemmy is amazing.
There's also wefwef, which seems to be a clone of Apollo.
Popular Reddit apps like Sync and Boost are currently in the process of making Lemmy ports.
Amazing work as always, Kuro!
It's been a long time since I saw a developer being this responsive and caring about their app.
In no particular order:
- Remove API changes
- Remove u/Spez and his lovely executive board
- Make the site a non-profit project without ads, since most of the work is done by volunteers anyway
Oh, and for fucks sake: Remove that shit stain that is the official app from the universe.
