The only possible way I can think of is if you can contact the admins on Reddit and prove you are the owner of the account, then they might be able to reset the pw and send it to you.

However, I would not hold out much hope for this, getting this wrong would be very bad, possibly opening Reddit up for legal action, getting it right won’t really matter to them, so they probably have rules about denying these kinds of requests.

A token?

It is insane that any internet banking portal still uses a static password.

I don’t have a lot of crazy stories, but I have one unusual story.

I got to go take a private train with my dad.

We had one first class car and one locomotive.

My dad worked in the train industry, he sold equiment used for railroads.

He called me one day and asked if I wanted to ride a private train, I had time so I gave the only apropriate answer, “yes”.

So after having worked a night shift I slept far too little, got on the train to the city my dad was in to ride the private train back.

He was doing a demo of his company’s equipment and had arranged for them to use a private train, I just joined him on the journey to our city as a fun and interesting experience.

What?

Great argument!

THE solution is not to buy the wife an Android, that is ONE solution.

In total, there are a few solutions, I number them to make it easier to refer to them, not to order them from best to worst.

1. Get yourself an iPhone
2. Get your wife an Android
3. Wait for iOS 18
4. Switch to a messaging app like Element or Signal.

1 and 2: Unless you yourself can accept switching to using the other system, it is unfair to demand that the other part does that.

I have tried to switch to Android, I did it back in 2019, but I just disliked the feel of the OS enough that after dropping my phone and smashing the screen after 2-3 months, I didn’t even bother to get it fixed, I just moved back to my iPhone.

3. iOS 18 will have RCS, and will probably solve this.

Oh, I realize why it is, I just don’t see it as an advantage, the whole argument is just a technical one, not a usabillity one.

Good day to everyone except to the neo-liberals always btiching about .ml being a communist instance, we don’t care about your oppinions.

Damn, you write a lot about people you don’t care about.

I don’t really see the benefit of allowing users to create files with the same name in the same directory, yeah, yeah I know that case sensitivity means that it isn’t same name, but imagine talking to a user, guiding them to open the file /tmp/doc/File and they open /tmp/doc/file instead

I see a future where you will need to have a philosophical argument together with a blood test to logon to the internet.

Sure, but is that due to a better product, cheaper product or a better political landscape?

I am leaning on the latter two options.

“Looking to upstage Apple”

I am sure Huawei will run a good presentation, but I have severe doubts about “upstaging”, especially since we don’t know what Huawei will launch.

Please notice that I spoke about the configuration of the DE/VM, I have learned a lot about DE/VM confug from looking at different distros

This is not just one simple question.

You need to break it down into smaller tasks.

First things first, you need to get data from a Pixelfed instance, ok, start by looking up how to connect to the Pixelfed API.

Once you have a way to connect to the API, you need to request the data you need.

Once you have the data, look at the actual data, do you need to do extra formating?

Once you have the data, it is time to get/build the display.

Once you have the display, you need to figure out how to get your computer to talk to it, is it as simple as just sending the number to the serial port or do you need to use something like the GPIO interface on a Raspberry pi?

It sounds as you want to evaluate different Linux Distributions.

DE/GUI is a good one, terminal commands is a bit useless since the vast majority of Linux systems use Bash as default.

This is what I would look into on a new distro:

UI - What DE or WM is it using, what is the default config like, and try to learn from that. How is the terminal prompt configured (the default Ubuntu and Debian prompts are terrible, I allways change them)

Package Manager - how does it work, what software is available?

Unique software - Does the distribution include some tools, applications or games I haven’t heard about? If so, what do they do, and how do they work.

This gives me a feel for the distribution and how to use it.

Sigh, does that mean I have to block that entire instance as well?

Are there any active english communities there?

VIPs/C-suites, those that make these rules, most likely all have assistants, who will filter out emails like this, it is very probable that even if you find the direct email to ATT’s CEO and email, it will be filtered out and you’ll either get no reply or a template reply with zero substance.

I like that https://penisland.net/ still use the same URL.

I am not angry.

In general I am content, I have learned to live a lonely life, and while I am dealing with long term, low intencity depression from that, I have found ways to distract myself from thinking about it.

If I do, then I will cry, though I have long since started seeing crying as a strength rather than a weakness. It gets rid of pent up emotional energy and calms you down.
