When my Muslim coworker told me that they didn’t use toilet paper and found it disgusting.

I later got a bidet and have never looked back.

It makes it so that if you visit another instance using their URL, it will redirect you to your home version’s federated link.

E.g. if your home server is Lemmy.world, let’s say you find a link to Lemmy on another website but it’s a link to Lemmy.ml. If you click the link, you won’t be signed in.

So like:

https://lemmy.ml/c/memes would redirect to https://lemmy.world/c/memes@lemmy.ml

This way you can seamlessly use Lemmy.

Though I’m not familiar with this particular script. Scripts should be verified for security before installation.

Memmy on iOS is very much like Apollo. A bit buggy but a great start.

Mlem really didn’t satisfy me.

Basically 3 good choices

ProtonVPN AirVPN IVPN

Proton has a 50% off student discount bringing the price down to $5 a month for all proton services.

IVPN is probably the best but most expensive.

I still use torrents sometimes but almost exclusively use Usenet these days. For Plex/jellyfin servers it’s pretty unbeatable.

Torrents are mostly stuff like audiobooks from audiobookbay and myanonymouse and games from repackers like Fitgirl.

I mean usenet costs money and torrents don’t.

The bidet has a hot air dryer. Truly living in the future.

I would say it's not really an age thing. I mean age probably plays a role but ultimately it's just a hobby that is relatively common and not very exciting to an outsider.

This is definitely experienced by 20 year olds too. There is definitely a social pressure.

Based on this, 12% of people in your age bracket play video games, it's typically a roughly 50/50 split by gender. Not exactly a small amount. I think it's more that if you date 10 women, one will be a gamer and you've just not met that one.

On reddit, half of the users are bots controlled by various corporations and state departments.

They don't advertise it, just message support from your .edu email and tell them your username. They'll apply it and let you use the STUDENT promo code. It's 50% off the year plan so $5 a month.

I really don't think that 3rd party apps were anything but collateral damage. I think his real goal is to try and capitalize off of AI training.

He clearly saw these companies using reddit data to train AI for like no money and got upset.

Except imessage and facetime are end-to-end encrypted in China.

I’d say past security breaches are enough reason to stay away.

Yeah I don't know about that, it rolled out globally a month later.

In some cases we're talking about people making $2.13 an hour in a country where you're easily paying $1,000 a month or even more for a studio apartment. I'd say if you don't tip you're the bad guy.

This type of change isn't going to come from people just deciding that waitstaff should starve and refusing to tip. If anything it will come from unionization of waitstaff or from legislation.

On Reddit, I think a lot of them monetize it. But generally speaking it’s a rewarding thing to feel like you’re building something greater than yourself.

Kind of crazy to think that AI in games has never really evolved past this game. In many cases modern games have far worse AI than FEAR,

There's nothing inherently wrong with windscribe but I don't trust any company that offers a cheap lifetime plan for something that requires so much upkeep.

The art of the deal.

Los chapulines son mejores.

E.g. you’re the mod of the vacuum cleaner subreddit. A business approaches you offering payment to recommend their vacuum in the wiki of the sub.

That's cool, I've been passively wanting a brew/apt alternative for windows for years. I had no idea Microsoft made one.

Best way is probably just to leave it running for a while and make sure ports are forwarded.

We do it’s called ‘beehaw’

It's open source.

This is Korea all over again.

Apple wallet

Learning is bad actually.

While I’ve never used it personally I’ve heard good things about cloudflare tunnel.
