That’s all newsletters. I promise.

1. Go to “all mail” view.
2. Find the first newsletter.
3. Unsubscribe.
4. Search “from:email@from.newsletter”.
5. Select all and delete.
6. Repeat 1-5 until no newsletters remain.

Now you’ll have a pile of emails you can actually parse, and all the newsletters clogging up your inbox will stop arriving in the future.

Do this every time your emails start to get away from you and you’ll be golden.

Didn’t this used to be common? One button glows in the dark, and if you push it a few seconds of backlight illuminate the rest of the buttons?

I swear half the remotes when I was a kid did this.

Is the solution to male loneliness ripping your father’s shrieking soul from the depths of the underworld and crudely resurrecting him in defiance of God’s will?

Imagine paying money for software designed to sabotage your business if you miss a license payment.

Ask the instance admin?

Or just join another instance and don’t get bent out of shape about a ban?

If that’s the extent of their differences, then they aren’t very different…

Explain how they are different.

This is like when Republicans complain that Biden detained record numbers of border-crossers, and I’m like “Isn’t that what you guys want him to do?”.

I suspect that this was something of a test case, with the regulator flexing their censorship muscle, and I’m glad it didn’t work out.

This was a POV stabbing video that people spread around to glorify violence. It’s in the same category as beheading videos.

America may have decided that child porn is the only media exception to free speech, but other more sane countries draw the line a little bit more broadly to include all forms of extremely violent crime filmed to be glorified, including things like murder, attempted murder, torture, and the rape of adults.

If you want to operate a business in places like Australia or New Zealand, you cannot be distributing violent gore videos within their borders.

I hope they revisit this as X users are pretty routinely celebrating things like the Christchurch shooting and other violent extremist incidents. Sometimes censorship makes sense, and when people are antagonistically spreading videos of people being maimed and killed, the “free speech” argument absolutely doesn’t fucking cut it.

Not well versed in bird law, eh?

Yeah, it works, but it’s really quite clunky…

Tl;Dr: Sharing Nude scenes out-of-context are considered a form of involuntary pornography in Denmark (portraying artistic nudity as pornography) and this man was arrested for compiling and sharing nude scenes of Danish actors from Danish films and sharing them while inside Denmark…

This has nothing to do with film studio profits or piracy, this is a man who ran afowl of his home country’s laws about pornography.

And to be fair, a woman appearing nude in a film doesn’t mean that sexualizing the shit out of her publicly isn’t scummy fucked up behavior. I think I understand the law here.

“Linux File Systems”

*List of root directories*

Uh, where are the file systems? EXT4… BTRFS… FAT32…

I’ve been on Linux for 20+ years now and it’s not as effortless as Windows or Mac, but it is definitely easy now.

So many things have improved with Linux desktop it’s crazy.

As long as it’s not writing to disks, you’re probably safe. This is a good method to avoid getting a remote device stuck too.

The issue is that the digital tap-to-pay cards are actually reissued cards with their own unique numbers. They also require significant security measures to protect from cloning attacks.

So banks need a party that they can safely issue a digital card to, knowing that the card data will be stored safely.

Even a FOSS app that covers all the user’s needs is going to have a lot of trouble actually getting a card loaded into it under current standards.

I hate to say it, but crypto wallets are likely the closest thing we’re ever going to get to a FOSS tap-to-pay system. Banks are inherently corporate and capitalist, so it’s not really in their nature to make things open source.

Perhaps if there were an industry standard for issuing digital cards, instead of banks partnering with centralized wallet apps, we could procure our own digital cards to load onto our phones and watches, or integrate into other devices. But that’s a whole other battle that nobody is fighting right now.

File Manager Plus:

It connects to all my SFTP servers effortlessly, and it’s an absolutely stellar file Manager.

JuiceSSH:

Manages all my SSH servers and identities, and has an extremely usable terminal. It’s got extensions too.

SIMlink 4G

Are these sensors connected to a cell network? What the hell? More than half my life ago, when I was in high school, we had wifi…

lmao, just now reading this incredible response to me calling you paranoid.

Have you ever actually called a non-emergency line?

It’s usually just a phone tree telling you what part of the city’s website to go to. If you’re lucky enough to talk to a real person, the moment you start telling OP’s story, they will tell you to hang up and call 911 if you think there’s an emergency.

The non-emergency line isn’t 911-lite - don’t call it because you don’t know if the situation is an emergency or not…
