Not allowed to call them “females” any more.

DirigibleProtein ,

How ableist of you. Like so many others, if I could ride a bike I would.

Essentially John Oliver’s episode on Boeing.

DirigibleProtein ,

“Accidentally” leave an email/media announcement on the printer output tray.

Supernatural recognition by the Vatican is rare.

Huh? Isn’t the basis of their entire religion dependent on “supernatural recognition”?

DirigibleProtein ,

Malicious compliance. Have Apple and Google remove all apps that feature encryption — web browsers, banking apps, messaging apps — from their stores for 24 hours. Demonstrate that this isn’t really a good idea.

Edit: this is what it looks like with adblocker on. iPad mini 5 with LockDown app, and raspberry pi running pihole.

If ads annoy you as much as they annoy me, get an adblocker. But if there are sites that you use regularly, and block ads on, you might consider contributing to their patreon or whatever.

Is this process different than any other commercial operating system, whether on phone, tablet, or PC?

DirigibleProtein ,

What about crop dusting, cloud (rain) seeding, and even household bug spray?

DirigibleProtein ,

Evolution looks and behaves a lot like outlook. works well for me

DirigibleProtein ,

Remington also have different plugs for different models.

    Isn’t that the whole point of these antitrust cases?

    Company makes a product that no one else makes. People like it and buy it. Product becomes popular. Company makes money. (That’s the reason for being in business, isn’t it?). Suddenly someone notices that the product, which no one else makes, has earned a whole lot of money for the company.

    I wore a proper N95 mask the whole time. Told people I have cancer and am immune compromised so I can’t take it off (ok that bit’s true). Never had any problem avoiding facial recognition; but it’s possible that their particular facial recognition works around masks.

    DirigibleProtein ,

    Depends what you’re trying to do and what created the pdf. pdftools are good, but they’re command line tools which might not be your scene (dnf/apt/zypper search pdf). Inkscape, Libreoffice are usually a good gui compromise.

    Why is Boeing even still operating after 737 max, Alaskan airlines, tax avoidance?

    DirigibleProtein ,

    many have tried to cover a small hole on the machine that they believe houses a camera

    Looks like a student might have used a pocket knife or similar implement to dig at the hole and enlarge it, to try to see if there was a camera.

    DirigibleProtein ,

    Less people should be using “less” instead of “fewer”. 😜

    DirigibleProtein ,

    So the team were actually having a serious discussion this afternoon.

    Is the new project called:

    • Free-en-jin-ex
    • Freen-ginks
    • Free-ne-ginks
    • something else

    A lot of kerfuffle over not much. If you’re going to release a web app instead of a proper app, then I’m quite happy to have a bookmark to the web page instead of a bullshit fake app wrapping the same bookmark. Don’t clutter my phone with that garbage.

    TikTok Is Destroying Itself From the Inside Out (gizmodo.com)

    The most obvious example is the TikTok Shop. The company is pushing its eCommerce so hard you hear about it more than any other topic on the app, both in ads and organic videos from creators hoping for a share of the profits. The app is even testing a new feature that uses AI to identify products in the background of regular...

    Making a PDF that’s larger than Germany (alexwlchan.net)

    Some version of this has been floating around the Internet since 2007, probably earlier. This tweet is pretty emblematic of posts about this claim: it’s stated as pure fact, with no supporting evidence or explanation. We’re meant to just accept that a single PDF can only cover about half the area of Germany, and we’re not...

    How Do I Avoid Giving Home Address to Bank?

    I've heard of things like iPostal and Traveling Mailbox. Do these services allow you to register with bank, DMV, IRS, Voting, etc? How do they work? Would a normal P.O box using its physical address from USPS work? I've tried researching it and haven't gotten clear answers....

    DirigibleProtein ,

    Tell them you’re homeless. Put your address as “No fixed address” and use Post Restante — also known as General Delivery.

    If they make a fuss and demand a home address, reiterate that you’re homeless and demand that they provide you with a home. Worked for me (when I actually was homeless) for a few years.
