Addy.io gives you email aliases as not to expose your actual email address. Everything gets funnelled into a single inbox of your choosing still. And the great thing is that if you use a unique email alias for all services, you know instantly who leaked your email address if you start getting spam. :D

Thank you for keeping this instance running for as long as you did. I shall start looking for a new home. c:

See you around on Packmates and wherever else we may interact! c:

The scene with the guy without eyes and a tongue is imprinted into my mind because I happened to look at the TV just as that happened. I don't even remember how old I was, but definitely way under 10.

Every time this gets brought up, I go back to a thread where my most popular comment was (since I no longer have an account to check back on and it's the only one I know for sure I can find). To this day, it luckily still remains deleted. If it does get restored, I wonder if it becomes the original comment or the generic [deleted in protest of the Reddit API change] or whatever I set them to be edited to before deletion.

You're also wrong. He's a singer known as Freddie. And I don't know what kind of necromancy was used to get him on a chess board.

Good to know! Thanks for the warning. c: My default course of action will likely be just disabling the old alias and making a new one.

Lol! I need to start doing something like this when one of those email addresses eventually ends up in a breach. :D

Reminds me of the grim (or beautiful, depending on how you look at it) practice of photographing the deceased, especially children, during the Victorian era. Dressed up and posed, sometimes with living family in the same photo. Part of the reason being the exact fact that they wouldn't move during the shot.

I don't hide the fact at all. Heck, I openly share the artwork I create with non-furry peers. I've never had a bad reaction so I don't have any reservations regarding it.

I will also echo others by saying that the instance getting blocked by lemmy.ml hasn't had any effect on me. When I originally heard the news, I checked the communities I had subscribed to and barely any of them were for .ml. So I don't think there's any big loss from being blocked by them. I still check Lemmy almost daily through this instance. c:

I've gotten offered a job on the first interview and I worked there for a while. Then again, that was not in my field of IT and was a part-time job with a well-known company, alongside studies. So while it can be a red flag, it's not always. Depends on the situation. Just stay vigilant.

I mean, there are cases of victims being directly told by store employees that they can't sell the cards because it's a scam, and them getting right back on the phone with the scammer and going to another store instead.

Being in the middle of the large and relatively stable Eurasian plate does help, though. The Mediterranean region, being closer to the edge region, does experience quite a bit more, though, and some strong ones have historically been felt all the way up here, too.

I'm setting up some things for myself before I start proper streaming but little test streams I've done have been very successful!

And I've subbed to the community, so really appreciating the advertising. Cx

Owncast is rather interesting to me. Self-hosted streaming platform that can use the ActivityPub to publish streaming notifications, if desired.

Finland is not close enough to the edges of tectonic plates, so if we get earthquakes here at all, they're barely noticeable.

The puppy was being trained for hunting. Meaning she killed her for doing exactly what she was being trained to do. Of course she wouldn't know there are some animals she shouldn't chase.

Oh, and this is not a one-off thing from Noem either. She also mentions shooting and killing a male goat for "chasing her kids".

In any case, I worry when someone's solution to completely fixable issues with other living beings is to just kill them.

Carnivores have just as much right to live as their prey, as unfortunate as the cost of life is.

We, as humans, are in a rather unique position, being omnivores with many of us in the developed world having easy access to food. And those of us can make a choice to not cause the death of other sentient beings in order to have food.
