4·3 years agoThat leaves Reddit as a decommissioned sewage treatment plant turned into a bum fight squat haven.

11·3 years agoI really appreciate these suggestions. Thank you.
Since you mentioned alt-grains, I’ll admit I’m more interested in leaner “ancient” alternatives to rice, but sometimes I still test my glycemic threshold with brown rice variants; basmati and jasmine.
Zojirushi has been recommended to me before, so this is starting to ring true. Your stovetop notions are hands down agreeable. Thanks for introducing me to the hob top. Smart!

11·3 years agoThat’s nearsighted. Do you wear glasses? Do they give you headaches?

11·3 years agoNot a complaint but a question based on the fact. I wasn’t complaining, but you very much so did to me.

25·3 years agoAt least the OAuth2 access is protected. That’s the detail I needed to see.
So many articles suck these days.
That’s the direct implication of the innate nature of capitalism. News publishers drive researchers and writers into mill writing which unfortunately involves reworded mimicry of the few who publish the original “investigative research” they recorded from the source. They’re doing it for money too, so they aren’t alloted enough time to fully investigate off they want to publish their name to juicy details first before those who can and will fully investigate it to publish a full exposé.
We expect news publishers to dramatize titles for the click-bait effect at their websites. But within a public forum platform (here), reposting the click-bait title into the community post effectively misleads forum readers because this space is personable and honest, so we expect an honest post title here. News publishers know this and exploit that in Reddit, but hopefully not here. Every time I see OPs copy-posting and running off, I have to suspect industry marketing efforts in effect, perhaps especially when OP is a bot.
I really don’t want to see Lemmy become polluted with news marketing as though this platform is at all open to the same abuse as that socialist dictatorship platform we left to be here.

9·3 years agoThe title seems dramatic, but using the Outlook client to link a third-party account is supposed to connect to those emails with the respective credentials, right?

64·3 years agoYeah, but that 500MB storage . . . needs a game plan.
I didn’t migrate to the Fediverse to be shown links to Google sites.
I recognize a carnival-styled UI with a naked eye. When the UI feels like ADHD distractions, you know marketing tactics are the purpose of the toys. We know that’s expectable with free web services, but costly consumer products need to offer a fully-controllable experience to exclude statistic-mining spyware.
Except when 2FA requires a TOTP in the form of out of season fruits in an incompatible combo with canned spinach.
Thank you for making the internet user-friendly instead of exclusive. You deserve to contribute.

World News@lemmy.world•Photos show scale of the destruction of Israel air attacks on GazaEnglish
3·3 years agoAnd I’ve noticed their before and after photos show a before of the suburbs and any after photos showing the city. Cheap tricks. Not that I doubt the main message, but it cheapens the integrity.




I have this 8-port, 268 watt GAN tower with 3 QC 18watt A ports, 6 PD 30 watt C ports, and a PD 100 watt C port. It’s a top notch, high quality product. I paid 25 USD for it last year, but it’s $77 now from that store, but I bet you could find a Choice Super Deal.
I also have one of these cheap 65 watt QC multi-port plugs. It’s thin, but seems fine.
All that said, I have experienced battery failure, then also on several cheap replacement batteries, so I will keep my phone plugged into the recommended 30 watt C-cube.
I’ve yet to discover a cable that doesn’t evoke skepticism after use. I will need to learn about the best wire materials for cables instead of buying the lowest priced items.
I don’t buy into “you get what you pay for” because that’s a capitalistic sales pressure idiom motivating consumerism that’s become mindlessly repeated. As long as the technology, materials, craftsmanship and functionality are legitimate, the lowest price that meets my quality standards is what I pay. I always read those specs before letting the price influence me.
