  • Fwiw, the cheap olive oil is really good for mayo you make yourself. EVOO should be used for things like salads and bread, where the taste makes the difference.

    If you want oil in a pan, cheap stuff works just fine...only you have to be careful because olive oil in the states isn't always olive oil.

  • There was a Republican politician that said something along the lines that God was punishing states because they allowed gays. And then his state got hammered in the ass by another storm.

    He didn't walk back his statement.

    These people just want to blame everything bad on their enemies.

  • You'd think it should be less expensive.

    But then you're not thinking of increasing shareholder value.

    How dare you!

  • Shit, I'm even grateful for when you all tell me off.

    Oh fuck off!

    Just kidding! I haven't seen any of your posts here (mostly because I sort by all) but yeah the people in this sub are top tier.

    A few weeks ago I came here to ask about building my own computer and which parts to get because it had been years since I've done so and everyone was nice about it.

  • Fwiw, egg prices did come down after the last shortage..... But not back down to pre-shortage levels.

    It looks like egg sellers took a page out of airline companies. Jack up the price. There is outrage. Lower prices a few weeks apart until it's at a point that is larger than when you started but people seem to be okay with.

  • Look into the benefits offered by your other credit cards. My identity was stolen a few years ago and I learned like a few months ago that one of my credit cards offers free identity protection services if/when your identity gets stolen.

    They handle all of the annoying shit like contacting the bank, getting the debt off of your credit card, etc.

    If not, and you were part of the Equifax (or any) hack, you likely have this same service available to you for free.

  • It's because all those people think that if they work harder, maybe, just maybe, they will be like him.

    Source: I used to be one of those rubes and now I know better.

  • I don't think we need more licenses. OSS license proliferation is bad as it is. IMO, people should do their best to stick with the major licenses: GPL, AGPL, MIT, or Creative Commons if it doesn't fit the above.

    The problem with a tax that you've proposed is that it would be nearly impossible to enforce. How would you know which companies are pulling your library?

    What I've been doing is adding the Commons Clause to my license and that I think helps. I don't write wildly popular software so I don't really see people donating or asking to purchase a license.

    I personally like the Mozilla model where they donate to various open source projects from a common fund. I'd like to see more stuff like that.

  • It sort of is by license. Not directly but if you're using one of the more restrictive licenses like GPL 3, it often doesn't pass legal review due to many of the copy left provisions.

    Most companies simply find a similar library that has a more permissive license. A handful will contact the dev and buy a license.

    As much as the MIT license has made code more accessible, its permissiveness is the main reason I don't use it for my own software, unless I really don't care for it.

  • Hot damn good for you!

    Keep us updated! I don't think lemmy has a remindme bot but I'm saving this comment.

  • But they can't just "restore" the property, it was full of mature native trees/plants and for bulldozed.

    Oh God.....tree law....I never realized how much I missed this.

  • There was an encryption system a few years ago that offered this out of the box.

    I can't remember the name of it but there was a huge vulnerability and basically made the software unusable.

    Crypt box or something like that.

  • I could imagine an Oppenheimer situation where he deeply regretted what he had created.

    But I highly suspect this was more of a case of "don't look deeply into my past", which, is quite ironic given what he did.

  • Iirc the way that blind works is by verifying you work at a specific company but then that email address cannot be used again.

    It's not associated with your specific account.

    Someone who worked at blind explained that but there's no way to know this for sure.

  • Who exactly is this 4cat?

  • No GOP wet dream is basically what North Korea does.

    You stand in line to vote and are handed a card. There is one box for the "candidate". You vote by putting your card in the box while everyone watches.

    You have the choice to not vote.

    Guess how many don't vote b

  • This exactly. NAS+RAID gives you a backup of your local media. It can account for one of your three copies and one of your storage mediums. But you still need something off site.

    So assuming you had a copy on your computer proper, it could work. Better than no backups.

  • I wish there was a good way to store a backup of my media. I recently suffered a terrible hard drive issue. I lost a terabyte of media. Fortunately, the pirate ship has saved me and has me rethinking some of my backup methodologies.

    Outside of periodically backing up onto an external hard drive, I haven't been able to find a reasonably priced online backup solution that isn't going to fuck me when I have to pull data out. Egress fees are killer.

  • Privacy: I have blinds on my windows. I control whether they are open or closed, but they aren't secure. You could break a window and look inside if you really wanted to.

    Security: my glass storm door has a lock. But privacy is only there when I close the front door.

    There is overlap between these two concepts but one does not imply the other.
