I was explaining to my kids about floppy disks, and mentioned the save icon. The what? The button you press to save. It just says “save” they said.

I think they use the Google suite at school, and apparently the save button just says “save”. Although TBH I half expected them to not know of it because of auto-saving.

As others say, buy a domain so it’s easier in the future.

But one thing what helped me was relay email addresses. Whether that’s Addy, Simplelogin (now owned by proton so probably not), Firefox Relay, or another. When you sign up to shit, buy something, etc, use one of these email addresses. When you eventually move to your new email address, you can cutover all those accounts to the new one by changing the settings for where it forwards email to.

You can also use your own domain with a catchall and make up your own whatever@yourdomain if you’re ready for that.

Ah that makes sense, thanks!

If you want to hand out candy to children year round, you could consider becoming a tree? Saw this guy on the weekend, handing out lollipops to kids at the playground while playing the saxophone: https://thespinoff.co.nz/society/17-07-2022/have-you-seen-the-walking-talking-tree-of-wellington

Full disclosure, doing this may get you shot in the US, and this is not that unusual for Wellington NZ, we’re just kinda like this.

If it’s automated, why only run it weekly?

Can’t believe they killed her off so early on!

Yes. I cancelled almost 2 years ago hoping they would improve by the time it was up but now I only have a month left to sort a new service 😭

Lol apparently New Zealand is joining those ranks. Along with an app to pay.

I have been self-hosting Zusam for sharing photos of kids with the family. After a bit of a chat with the dev I forked the web app and started smashing in new features and customising it to work more how I want it to work, to be my vision instead of his. It’s a heavier webapp than Zusam’s very light one but it works well I reckon. It just sits over Zusam kind of like how alternate UIs work in Lemmy.

That’s been my determined focus the last week or so, but I’m probably about to stop for 6 months because that’s how I roll.

“Your Windows boots up in what, a day and a half”

Somehow still relevant too.

Realistically it doesn’t need to request the DNS record every time. It’s probably retrying over and over because you blocked it, otherwise it would just cache the result for a while.

I remember some huge number of blocked requests when I set up my pihole, but eventually they calmed down as devices gave up their retrying.

Tineye goes back at least to 2013, so likely not! But also probably easy enough to photoshop/gimp.

How often do chicken wings appear where there isn’t a bathroom where you can go and wash your hands?

Browsing through the list… ok how do I tell if my server has been compromised, because I run a fuckload of those…

Have one. Love it. Except mine doesn’t mark where the electromagnets are so you just have to guess 🫠

I had a colleague missing a hand once, and it me more than 9 months notice, even though I saw them in the office each day…

I’m not sure what they were going for, but I know that modern browsers do just in time compilation for regularly repeated code parts to allow much faster execution, so “interpreted programming language” may be a little of a blurry definition. See https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Glossary/Just_In_Time_Compilation

I couldn’t find any info on any hardware specific to JS/JSON for clients but I’m no expert, maybe they will provide more info.

I probably miss out on that aspect as I have everything automated 🤷

The two main benefits I’ve seen of private trackers are that you avoid the issue in the OP which happens all the time on public trackers, and that shows download in seconds.

Not sure how helpful they would be if things weren’t automated. I just have things set up so my Jellyfin users can request shows and they get downloaded automatically.

But with that said, “private” doesn’t mean it costs money, just that it requires an account (and usually that is an application process). It means they can kick people off for uploading things they shouldn’t.
