Yeah, there’s this whole concept of “Oracles”, which were supposed to be trustable sources for facts, but they can mainly deal well with things like stock prices or weather data.

It would also have been possible for these Oracles to employ people to fact-check things in case of a dispute. So, user30000004 might claim that the pizza has been delivered and wants their money for it, while user9000005 says nothing got delivered, so then you have someone physically drive out to user9000005 and see if there’s pizza there or not.

But yeah, you still have the problem that a pizza isn’t hard to hide/eat, so you’d need to do some expensive detective work to try to figure out the truth. And that just isn’t worth the cost…

I’ve also heard the theory before that even GPUs went pretty much straight from mining cryptocurrencies to then be used for training LLM models.

A few days beforehand, I was talking with my mom on the phone and she said, I should come visit them on my birthday. And at first, I thought, she just wanted me to visit in general, but found it a bit weird that she considered it such an imperative.

Then I thought about it and realized that it wasn’t just any birthday, but my 30th. I genuinely would not have realized, probably until months later when someone would’ve asked me about my age.

…I’m not saying you shouldn’t celebrate or whatever. I just never cared much about birthdays and that felt really on brand for me.

I currently have to do a deployment at $DAYJOB and recently, I made a larger change which is completely broken, but also it’s slightly less broken than before, I think, so we do actually have that on the main branch. 🫠

I have made the first-hand experience of genuinely nothing being in reach to hold onto, but the reason I couldn’t reach anything was that everyone was standing so densely packed, that there was really no way you could possibly fall over anyways.

I can also recommend not having anxiety in that situation.

Git: lazygit
Docker management : lazydocker

Well, seeing them in the list like that rubs me the wrong way. 😅

Both of those come with a CLI, called git and docker respectively, which is the official way of using them. These CLIs might not be particularly sexy, depending on who you ask, but they’re decent enough and worth learning, even if you go the lazy* route, since online resources all just explain the official CLIs and you might find yourself one day administering remote systems where you can’t install additional software…

For Firefox, I believe the way you’d usually want to do this is with Policies: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/enforcing-policies-firefox-enterprise

Side-note: Mozilla is shutting down Pocket, so you might not need to adjust that config.
I’m not sure, how they handle disabling it in browsers, but given that the backend has already been turned off, presumably they would disable it even on ESR with some update…

I don’t know, I haven’t heard of people doing that and I feel like I’d need to throw some salad or tomato on top to make it worthwhile.

But I might also misjudge it, because we don’t call the 100% peanut stuff “peanut butter” in my country and well, because I haven’t really tried it.

To be honest, though, the main point of my comment was that it’s great for cooking. I really don’t feel like you’d want to mix the sugary stuff into even a fraction of the sauces that I put the 100% peanut stuff in.

Well, peanut butter is often with added sugar and whatnot. If you got the stuff that’s just pureed peanuts, that isn’t really something you’d spread on your bread. Instead, you can use it for cooking, e.g. mix it into sauces to make the sauce more creamy and hearty.

Hmm, I found this German forum thread from 2019, which says it doesn’t support all frequencies used by US carriers.

Of course, this may very well be different with more modern models. You can try also asking on their forums, or maybe you’re able to contact support directly. So far, I’ve always gotten a response fairly quickly.

Also just to note, I’m on the SHIFT6mq, which isn’t being produced anymore.
I believe, they’re currently in a bit of an awkward in-between phase, where you can only really get the SHIFT5me, which is an even older model, while they’re planning out the SHIFTphone 8. That might still take some months, and quite possibly more than a year.
I don’t think they have the capacity for two flagship models at the same time, so you just get these fairly long pauses in availability, which I just can’t sugarcoat…

Oh man, I thought “AF” meant “as fuck” like it usually does on the internet.

Nope, it’s a smaller manufacturer called “SHIFT”. Kind of like a competitor to Fairphone, in terms of repairability, sustainability, Custom ROM support and being expensive AF. 🙃

Kind of a weird poll when I still have all those features, except maybe the IR blaster. Like, yeah, I would miss those, but I don’t currently…

You do have to look for ones made out of wood/bamboo and plant fibers, yeah. Wasn’t too hard for me, but mileage probably varies, depending on where one lives.

Reddit’s culture is extremely toxic. Like, I actually left Reddit before Lemmy existed for that reason.

Auf Deutsch heißen sie oft “Topfbürste”. Nur dann nicht beim Handwerksbedarf bedienen… 🫠

Pretty sure, I’m not the same people that condemned sponges as unsanitary…

I do think brushes are more sanitary (on average probably even more so than a launderable cloth), but hygiene isn’t my problem with sponges.

You can also get small dish brushes like these:

They’re better at scrubbing stuff, and for the rest, you can use a normal washing cloth.

Yeah, I feel like it requires more cooking skill to tie it together, but it prevents you from playing it safe, by going for your usual recipes or by selecting relatively few ingredients that you know to work together.

Yeah, particularly opening posts in tabs is something I miss from most apps…
