Ehh, it’s ok in the case of JetBrains - if your subscription lapses your license converts to a ‘perpetual fallback license’ so can just continue using the version you installed when the subscription was originally purchased.
I’m using a 4 year old version of PhpStorm with no issues and no subscription. My PyCharm sub ended 6 months ago and I’m staying on the 2023 version of PyCharm because the latest version comes with lots of AI which makes my CPU fans scream continuously.
Same goes for downvotes - giving something a downvote is the equivalent of giving everything else an upvote.
After X attempts to log in, it bans the IP address.
It will scan your wordpress files and alert you if any of them have changed in suspicious ways (hacked).
It can disable the xml-rpc endpoint which is rarely used and is a big vector for hacking.
… and a lot more but those are the main ones for me.
The WordFence plugin is a must-have for security.
If you use Caddy instead of Apache then you get SSL automatically. You’ll need php-fpm as well, tho.
Don’t forget that Trump is completely inept and this time doesn’t have any help from people even trying to be “the adults in the room”. He’s made some huge huge promises and I just don’t think he has the ability or the team to make much of it happen.
Congrats.
Once you get to $10k it starts to matter where you put it - for example a managed fund will make it grow significantly faster than if you left it in the bank.
Looks like CMYK support is coming, if I read the release notes right. That has been a sticking point for a loong time.
Being registered “as a republican/democrat” is weird.
Electoral college is weird AF
One party trying to stop people voting is weird.
Queuing for hours to vote is weird.
Purging voter rolls is weird.
Rallies are weird.
Townhalls are weird.
Flags everywhere is weird.
The orange one is super weird.
This is huge. Of course they shouldn’t have been left trapped there for decades but it’s great to know their situation is improving 👍
I’ve had a Tidal subscription for about a year. It’s recommendation algo is way way better than Spotify and there are none of those spammy 1 minute tracks that Spotify has because ‘artists’ have gamed the system.
They don’t have a Linux app but the PWA works fine. Minimize the window to reduce CPU usage (I know that sounds crazy but it actually works).
ok so the monkeys need to type faster
Anytime someone says “it has to be that way because that’s how federation works” they’re wrong. It can be however we want it to be, it’s just a choice.
Ahh yes, the walled garden trap.
I self-host a copy of FreshRSS which does most of those things. No Android app but the PWA works.
Whether you can read the full text in the app or not usually depends on whether the source provides a feed with the full text in it - changing your reader app won’t make much difference.
I subscribe to ~100 feeds but I have no idea what you’re into so dumping the list on you won’t help.
Instead, check out these directories that list RSS feeds by topic:
TikTok quantified the precise amount of viewing it takes for someone to form a habit: 260 videos.
Kentucky authorities note that while it might seem a lot, TikTok videos can be just a few seconds long.
“Thus, in under 35 minutes, an average user is likely to become addicted to the platform,” the state investigators concluded.

Most women could not open their own bank accounts or have credit cards until the 1970’s. That’s just about within the lifetimes of nearly half the people here.
I’ve been learning docker over the last few weeks and it’s been very helpful for writing and debugging docker-compose configs. My server how has 9 different services running on it.
I use it for python development sometimes, maybe once per day. I’ll paste in a chunk of code and describe how I want it altered or fixed and that usually goes pretty well. Or if I need a generic function that I know will have been coded a million times before I’ll just ask ChatGPT for it.
It’s far from “useless” and has made me somewhat more productive. I can’t see it replacing anyone’s job though, more of a supplemental tool that increases output.
It’s not so much the hair itself as it being a symptom of god knows what else.
Scalability. Federation adds overhead that increases as the number of instances increases. It is unclear to me when we will hit a wall but it’s probably not far off.
How will we pay the bills. Some instances get enough donations to pay server costs but none get enough to pay for staff or developers.
Both of those are only really problems if the fediverse grows, which it hasn’t for a while now. But that could change at any moment.
Not quite. It’s not the foreigners who pay the tariffs, it’s the locals. The tariff is charged at customs when the product enters the country and the people paying that are the people doing the importing. Tariffs don’t bring more money into the country, they just penalize local people who import goods from overseas. It’s a tax. Back when Republicans were consistent they hated all taxes, heh.
From the point of view of the local consumer it makes no difference - the price rises unless there is a locally made substitute they can buy instead.
