Our company pays for TeamViewer, and I still get nagged all the time, so there’s no point in giving them money, they still nag you all the time.

Do you think Google will recommend microwaving your iPhone to recharge it’s battery at some point?

Gas discounts are pretty small.

At least for Kroger, you get $0.03 baseline with no discount. After you spend $100, you get one fill up with $0.10 discount up to 35 gallons. My vehicle in particular has 11 gallons. So my maximum discount is $1.10, up from base line $0.33 discount. $1.10 discount per $100 spent is barely worth it.

Even if you used all 35 gallons, that’s $3.50 discount per $100 spent.

So if you have a massive vehicle that takes 35 gallons, you can save $35 off the fill up after you spend $1000 in the store. Could you have saved that $35 by shopping at a different grocery store?

For Android, in the notification shade, you can hit the power button and there should be an option called “Lockdown” which prevents biometrics from unlocking your phone, just like when it first boots.

There’s also app pinning (has to be enabled in settings) where you can lock an app in the task manager and clicking the bubble at the top and select “Pin”. You can’t swap apps or go back to the home screen without password/biometrics.

I wore shorts and flip flops to a grocery store in the dead of winter. Guy asked if I was cold, and I was like “I went from one climate controlled box into a drivable climate controlled box, and now I’m in this climate controlled box”

Yeah, things could go wrong like a car wreck or something where I get stuck outside for an extended period of time and would become uncomfortable. But it is what it is.

Well overall, using these techniques has probably resolved a ton of investigations where the leads ran out and it being an overall positive. I think it would still be better that DNA from these sources cannot be used in trial. So a DNA match can give you a new angle to find other elements, but the fact DNA was used to find a trail shouldn’t be admissable.

I guess the saying “better 100 guilty people go free rather than an innocent man should suffer” applies though.

My bias though is probably skewed through the media I consume. I do watch a lot of channels like Lackluster YouTube videos (shows corruption and double standards in policing). I do try to balance it out with channels like Code Blue Cam which does highlight good policing too, but I would say I have an inherent distrust with policing nowadays.

Well prosecutors and cops are incentivized to get arrests. Whether to pump numbers up for promotions or to use in campaigning. So it wouldn’t surprise me if cops turn a cold case into a witch hunt because some partial DNA match in a “private” database gave them a few suspects and then they start to build some case to fit the suspects.

I hope some good lawyers find some facilities serving Viagra via Medicaid and get that shutdown. I know the law doesn’t say “gender-affirming care”, but here’s hoping.

The problem right now (I think) is the “Hide NSFW Posts” is a lemmy setting, and the blurs are Sync settings.

So the hide NSFW post prevents the API from returning any post marked NSFW

I always squint at meat products that claim something like “made with 100% real chicken.” Yeah okay, there is chicken in there, but how much of the food consists of that 100% real chicken?

Isnt that how all social media sites start out. Starts with nerd culture and eventually other people come in later?

Verge article where the claim is due to ad blocker mitigation and not browser specific.

You said that you heard it was ad blocker related too. So the initial wave of reports about it being Firefox was inaccurate. Every article about it all sourced a singular reddit post. Just some social media “journalism”.

Anecdotally, which I understand is not a great measure, I didn’t experience this when it was first being reported on. But I pay for YouTube premium, so maybe that’s a difference too

This just sounds like another “Google is slowing down Firefox” thing where everyone’s source was a reddit post and didn’t even turn out to be accurate

I do think Yuzu should win. I’m in favor of emulation. I just read all the comments being like “I only emulated after I bought it for the 1080p 60fps”. Which wasnt in line with what the article was asserting.

I feel like everyone is missing the line that says “before it came out”. However, I find that hard to believe that 1 million people played a pirated copy before the release date and i can’t remember any leaked gameplay or screenshots.

I do think it’s important to mention that the jump to senior is largely an accumulation of domain knowledge,

I feel that. I’m a senior dev on my team of about 7 software engineers, but I often feel like I’d just be a junior somewhere else. Worst case scenario is I can add to my resume that I helped convert a vb6 shop to a c# shop, not sure what that’s worth though xD

An explanation like that at the start would have been helpful. I was reading the page and just didn’t understand. Was thinking at first it was to raise awareness of an unanswered question. Couldn’t figure it out so I asked.

Why post a stack exchange from 2008?

Are you under the impression anyone without the backing of the DNC has a chance in the primaries? Anyone who wanted to challenge Biden should have been posturing long ago. Your community of 15,000 people who support someone else aren’t going to overcome the swath of voters who only get the news from CNN.

You didn’t even name who his replacement should be in your own post.
