All your old stuff will stay visible even after lemm.ee goes down, but it won’t be linked with whatever new user you create on another instance.
If export and import of posts and comments was possible it would result in “duplicating” your posts and comments to your new account, which as you might imagine would be an absolute mess (not to mention technically infeasible - how would comment chains with other users work?) so you can presumably understand why it isn’t.
Contact is amazing. there’s no way it could be considered a “shitty lil movie”
It’s science fiction done properly.
Captain Picard very much became a Captain to all of us, I think.
Of course he’s got some flaws for sure (his stubbornness, for one!) but he really set the bar for what a civilised person and a good leader should be.
He’s principled, fact-based, fair in his judgement, respects the differences of others (both individually and culturally), solves problems with understanding and empathy rather than force, and he’s forgiving of mistakes.
And he does all that while still being a “strong” man. In fact, it’s these very traits which earn him the respect of his crew.
I’m glad I had Captain Picard as an influence in my childhood, rather than whatever youtube channel trying to make me angry for all the wrong reasons.
Yeah. Soft furnishings like carpet, rugs, sofas and beds all feel a lot more “natural” to cats, as if they are outside on the grass, so they prefer to do it there.
Unlucky for us it’s the absolute last place we want them to be doing it.
Wireguard doesn’t necessarily need to have those limitations, but it will depend in part how your VPN profile is set up.
If you configured your wireguard profile to always route all traffic over the VPN then yeah, you won’t be able to access local networks. And maybe that’s what you want, in which case fine :)
But you can also set the profile to only route traffic that is destined for an address on the target network (I.e your home network) and the rest will route as normal.
This second type of routing only works properly however when there are no address conflicts between the network you are on (i.e. someone else’s WiFi) and your home network.
For this reason if you want to do this it’s best to avoid on your own home network the common ranges almost everyone uses as default, i.e. 192.168.0.* and 10.0.0.*
I reconfigured my home network to 192.168.22.* for that reason. Now I never hit conflicts and VPN can stay on all the time but only traversed when needed :)
Don’t wait. Do it now before your hand is forced.
And you can say no if you want to!
Tough one. I’d probably end up being the person who just kept politely listening while trying to shut down the conversation amicably like “well anyway” and “I must get cooking dinner now” and “my plants need moisturising” or something.
Neighbours are extremely high on the list of people I want to avoid pissing off, because a neighbour with a grudge against you could be an absolute nightmare (especially when you live in a townhouse and share walls)
OP specifically said they don’t want to dual boot, and I honestly understand why they would say that.
When you dual boot you need to worry about what bootloader is in use and how it is set up. You might find yourself in a situation where you later decide to move fully to Linux and use the old Windows drive as storage but you can’t because if you wipe it then everything stops working.
Windows has even been known to destroy dual boot setups occasionally during Windows updates.
All very solveable if you have the right knowledge, but if you want to keep your life simple then swapping hardware has guaranteed safety (nothing can go wrong with the contents if a drive if it’s not plugged in, after all) and it’s very predictable and understandable.
“The squeaky wheel gets the grease” is an adage that is unfortunately true, and I find it absolutely infuriating.
I would much prefer that we can all be polite and courteous to each other, so when being polite fails but having a screaming tantrum gets results it really makes me annoyed at the unfairness.
I wouldn’t be surprised if they use it for creation in some cases, depending on locale, or if you seem “suspicious” to their metrics in some way, e.g. registering while on a VPN
Even Andor is true to that formula.
In one part, two characters are speaking over “radio” comms using code talk - presumably in case there are any Empire operatives listening in. And prior to that they kept missing each other because they weren’t at their radios at the same time. Derp!
So you’ve got hyperspace travel and laser guns, but no data encryption, or text messaging. Alright then.
Except of course, they do have those things when the plot calls for it, and that’s another reason to consider it fantasy. In most sci-fi the rules stay pretty consistent, but in fantasy it’s flexible.
*in the past.

The way 2. is written is basically a death sentence.
What they presumably meant is “never exceed your ideal weight no matter how much you eat”
Just for clarity, Graphene doesn’t provide a “neutered” version of play services - the version of play services which runs is the same code as provided by Google, with the only difference being that it runs in a sandbox which only grants it the same level of permission as normal apps (which you can choose to grant or not) rather than running as effectively root on your device like it does on most android phones.
“Well I won’t ground you this time, because that was kinda rad.”
This - get the no-brand replacement heads. No way would I spend the prices Oral-B are asking.
Sometimes the big brands can end up as better device purchases, since despite being more expensive upfront, there are plenty of cheap third-party consumables available.
Something nonconductive seems the safest choice, so you can’t accidentally short anything.
Not that I’m aware of. The Lemmy APIs provide access to that data but I don’t know of any existing tool that uses it for the purpose of exporting posts or comments.
