  • I have used AirVPN for half a decade and never ran into any issues, if you're looking for an alternative with port forwarding.

  • If you don't want to disable biometric auth, familiarize yourself with your phone and see if it has lockdown mode. Apple phones and most modern Android phones support it, using it will require your password / pin for unlocks. Put it into lockdown mode for the flight.

  • I work full time at a computer. I have two jobs, so I put in 68 hours a week (second is 28 hours a week, no overlap).

    I have no issues with eye fatigue best I can tell, that or I've just gotten so used to it. I will note I do have the blue light filter on my glasses lenses my optician recommended.

  • When I got into the space I had to find a private tracker, but since then I've had no issues with Readarr aside from some series being slow to get their metadata updated, but that's not a Readarr issue.

  • I find no discouragement of strategy in the game. Higher numbers don't always win, unless they're sufficiently high enough. I can design a fleet with weapon and armor/shield focuses to counter theirs, as well as choosing the engagement style (via the combat computer modes in the ship designer) to counter theirs.

    If I don't want to strategize I can simply wait longer for a bigger fleet and newer tech, but if I want to take on enemies larger than me, especially early game, I have to take the time to strategize.

  • If I'm using Bluetooth earbuds I can receive a call from Signal or WhatsApp. So it stands to reason it's possible a Bluetooth device exists to act like earbuds but for a landline phone. I found a few (cell2jack and XLink BT HD) but could not verify if they'd work for anything other than normal phone calls.

  • He got scammed again? Damn. Sorry, I was referring this one. And not really the details of the scam, but it was the wrong place / wrong time element that reminded me.

    Edit: the article you linked is older, so I guess not "again".

  • Yup, what you're describing sounds inline with how Corey Doctorow fell victim to fraud.

  • I'm fairly certain I annoy the people at my bank because I always insist on calling them back at their official number if they ask for any personal information. I don't fuck around with my bank security. I did however get got a couple of more years ago back when the chrome browser window phishing attack first started and had my Steam account stolen for a solid minute.

    That's the attack where they simulate a browser window so what you think is a oauth popup is actually just inpage javascript and CSS.

  • The fundraising was for the development of Pixelfed's source code. e.g. adding new features, bug fixing, etc. - not for currently hosted servers and their infrastructure. So it went to @dansup.

  • The thing about morality is that it is subjective (granted there is some discourse on that whole topic).

    Whether it is immoral - there are societal groups that would consider it immoral. There are also ones who wouldn't find anything wrong with it.

    IMO, what ultimately matters is your own morality, and past that, how those you care about would view it (their morality).

    Harmful is a whole other topic with a lot of facets though. That I can't help with.

  • Just like you can't directly contribute to Gnome without using gitlab.gnome.org, you can't directly contribute to Lemmy without GitHub.

    Or rather, easily. If you're submitting something simple, you could communicate with Lemmy Devs over Matrix and ask if they're amenable to receiving a git patch they can create the PR for. https://join-lemmy.org/docs/contributors/01-overview.html

  • It really depends on the job. My 9-5 is hybrid, so 3 days in a week minimum, others can be remote. We have core hours, 10-4, where I should be available. So I can WFH and have something for 4PM, get back, and wrap up my last hour. But my boss is also very understanding, and if I need to be unavailable within core hours, he won't force me to take PTO if I make up those hours.

  • To be fair, bimbofication / bimbofying, as a kink / fetish, can describe turning anything into that, even if they happen to (formerly) be a middle aged balding man who wasted an unmentionable amount of money on cards.

  • The deck represents their accumulation of knowledge, and the graveyard represents the loss of it. Therefore, the goal is to cause their opponent to lose all their knowledge, thus becoming a "bimbo".

  • Coincidentally, I just found out about Floorp yesterday, in no relation to this ToS change, and will take a look at it soon. Keep in mind I haven't looked at all yet, so I have no clue if they have a worse ToS or something.
