And in Assignment Earth:

Also, I’m not sure I see the point of this… if you already know where the HDMI cable is with enough accuracy to collect low-power radio emissions, then you already know the user’s location

Well the other half of it is that whatever media is being run through the cable is compromised so that it emits RF that is recognizable to a LoRa device. Such a device would think it was coming from another Meshtastic device and would therefore pick it up and broadcast it, which could serve to locate someone in a wide area.

So it’s interesting, but it seems pretty niche. You can deliver compromised media to someone you can’t locate AND they are a Meshtastic hobbyist… yeah not likely.

I’ve been seeing people using the thorn lately, is this tied to some cultural reference I am unaware of or is it just people being wacky?

the fuck is this retarded shit, go shit on the south lawn you fuckheads

Actually made me consider getting a working finger response on my server.

Joke’s on them. I just put games in my library and never install them.

Since you mentioned you track what you eat, this might be a good place for me to add my contribution.

I struggled with my weight my whole life and I started tracking what I eat, focused mainly on limiting my calories. It was still a struggle, but it definitely helped.

Then I discovered my body overproduces cholesterol and I had to change my diet, which was relatively easy since I was already tracking. I feel like I was given the key to weight loss with this one change: keep your saturated fat below 13g per day.

It’s not as easy as it sounds, you’re stuck basically eliminating certain foods altogether (I’m looking at you, beef) and you need to do a good deal of meal plan and prep (which is good for you anyway) - but holy shit. I eat constantly and I can’t keep weight on.

The only way I can gain is by stopping exercise altogether (I do one hour 3 days a week) and really loading up on carbs (bread/pasta).

Handsome. Solid. The white shirt front means he has 1.5 braincells. Superior.

This is apeshit stupid. I don’t expose my media to the Internet, so I’m not affected but I know what’s coming: no free users allowed at all.

Glad to see Jellyfin is more than up to the task. I only hang around on Plex for lazy reasons, but I can tell that soon enough I’m gonna have to jump ship.

I don’t know, but it sure is adorable.

There seems to be a neverending supply of complaints about the size and reach of the Fediverse and I’m just sitting here thinking this is about all the attention I’d like it to ever get. This is fucking nice. Doesn’t monopolize your whole day, always has at least some fresh content, users are free with the upvotes and discourse is downright civil most of the time. Does anybody really want this place to be like Reddit or Instagram?

I mean it’s cool, but “theoretically eternal” is a tad optimistic. I have a refrigerator that had several very similar capacitors to the two I’m seeing here. One of these capacitors had swollen beyond recognition and disabled it after a mere 5 years.

I don’t have to give any consideration to how true this is, because I quit windows last year. It’s liberating.

I switched late last year, Linux is not (that) hard and I have not had a single problem running any games (Steam, Heroic and Lutris cover them all). Hell, I run emulators now that I never did before and I have all my Wii, WiiU, Switch, PS3 and Xbox games on my Linux machine, lol.

She holds a Doctor of Education degree from the University of North Carolina at Greensboro.

Just goes to show you that even higher education can’t overcome religious brainwashing. She’s deeply religious and dumb as a fucking rock. Dumb people sure know how to pull levers of power though, she’s in there doing a bang-up job and even has time to propagandize a child she doesn’t know (by claiming he’s a victim of propaganda, naturally, as projection in one form or another appears to be the sole play in their playbook).

100%. For any fans of old out there whose Lemmy instance doesn’t support it, you can use https://o.opnxng.com/ as a proxy.

All software BlueSky uses is open source and self-hostable and already a bunch of different implementations have started to pop up independently.

Oh that’s cool. So where can I sign up to interact with BlueSky users if I don’t want to sign up to BlueSky?

They still make burners. They’re like $12.

I understood this reference. Thanks @pugjesus@lemmy.world!

Interesting, that never occurred to me. I said that about the wheelhouse because I have a Mastodon account I read from time to time and I can’t recall ever seeing any Lemmy content show in my feed. I never did Twitter though so I’m kind of lost, it might be I just don’t know what I’m doing. I followed like 40 hashtags but I still don’t get a huge amount of content.
