  • YSK: Your local library card often gives you free access to streaming services, digital magazines, audiobooks, and even online courses.

  • It's possible times have changed. Iirc Broward County was the goto suggestion but that may be out of date. I haven't ever relied on a library for finding digital media

    What does proof of address really mean to a library ? In times of desperation in the past I would enter the library's address and it would work for at l'est a month before getting removed which can be enough time if necessary. Questionable ethics but usage stats do help libraries..

  • Addendum, spread it out!

    I have watched some communities burst with 20+ post then fizzle out within a week.

    If you are passionate about a niche and have lots of content to share spread it out. Make a list, and post a few each week. That's how a lasting community with momentum forms. I've said it before but it surprising how fast something can build.

    Jump

  • There are a few cases where it can be convenient but it's rare and reserved for ones that act more like an rss feed. And I do subscribe to some of the similar rss feed mirroring communities/instances.

    Remember FARK? It's back, in Lemmy rss form: !fark@ibbit.at

    Jump

  • It's been tried. It sounds like a good idea but all you get are a bunch of threads with no comments and an OP that can never reply.

    There was even one that spun up a Lemmy account for each reddit user that they could claim to ease the transition.

    While a cool concept it was largely derided by the existing threadiverse users.

  • Canada is likely to lose its measles elimination status. The U.S. could be next.

    Jump

  • There are multiple criteria for losing an official measles elimination status, including the declines in vaccination rates observed in both countries.

    But the most significant factor is having ongoing measles transmission for a full year.

    “To really say that a country has lost the status, it takes 12 months of continuous transmission with the same genotype and the same strain of the virus,” said Daniel Salas, an immunization expert with the Pan American Health Organization (PAHO).

    Canada hit that mark this week.

    USA hits one year in January.

    Jump

  • Air traffic controllers received a paycheck two weeks ago at around 90% of their regular pay, but Tuesday will mark their first fully unpaid pay period for work in October.

    Duffy noted air traffic controllers have been taking on second jobs to try to supplement the lost income.

    “They’re taking second jobs, they’re out there looking,” he said.

    The FAA is around 3,500 air traffic controllers short of targeted staffing levels, which had many to work mandatory overtime and six-day weeks before the shutdown began.

    This can't end well for anyone.
