Next you’ll tell me penis enlargement pills don’t work and my Nigerian prince isn’t going to lay me back.

I use Buckets . It’s a small 1 person freeware, dev asks for a 30 dollar one time donation but it isn’t mandatory. It’s based on the software and idealogy of ynab which enshittified several years ago. The learning resources of ynab should be mostly compatible but I haven’t looked at it in a while.

It interopts with simplefin, an open source tool that reads your bank transactions and gives read only access to buckets. It costs 10dollars per year to use their servers. It creates some annoying quirks that is mostly the fault of my bank but its passable. The app can also take csv files if you would prefer (which most banks allow you to export).

It’s more about manufacturers, they want all new laptops to have a tpm, if those mobo/laptop manufacturers want the shiny “compatible with win11” stickers they have to add a tpm.

I like to use it when I’m reading, I’ll set it to move at my reading pace and then I don’t have to touch anything to read the article.

Relavent xkcd

I hope they clog those arties and give toronto a heart attack until they are forced to put in a triple bypass (more bike lanes).

It would be interesting to break down exactly why they have higher rates. It could be:

• over reliance on it’s automated systems (but FSD is only enabled on a small percentage of cars)
• safety design flaws (but it has a high safety rating by third parties)
• Unconventional UX decisions (steering yoke, giant displays with no physical buttons etc)
• novel behaviour of electric vehicles such as the fact users less familar with it’s acceleration behaviour and lack of gear shifts, the increased weight or one pedal driving. (but why aren’t other EVs up there)
• The politicized nature of Tesla attracting more risky customers. (but is that really worse than the type of people buying ferraris and other performance cars?)

The article points to the first point, and that certainly seems plausible, but they don’t really provide any evidence to support that.

Perhaps my experience is atypical but with the old system I’d have to sign in and reset everything every few months, so that doesn’t really seem very different for me at least. But then again I dont have much if a remote setup anymore.

First game that has convinced me to setup my vr at my new house.

It’s pretty hard to be open and transparent when 2 men with guns and black suits are sitting at your kitchen table.

We don’t know if that happened, but given the speed this happened and the us being the us…

If it breaks that they had a long runway of knowing this had to happen, then sure bring out the pitchforks, but imo we should default to this happening under heavy pressure to act immediately.

I checked their site, you can’t buy parking using just the website, even a monthly one. But you sure can pay your parking tickets! (although even that requires a credit card it seems)

The names aren’t terrible by themselves but it really sucks that the critically acclaimed narrative space puzzler “outerwilds” released the same month as the open world space rpg “outerworlds”.

Health Canada guidance is a bit more nuanced

Post-exposure prophylaxis or testing of a bat is generally recommended after direct contact with the bat (refer to Bat Exposure) because it is very difficult to ensure that a bite did not take place

Bat exposure: Post-exposure rabies prophylaxis following bat contact is recommended when both of the following conditions apply:

• There has been direct contact with a bat, AND
• A bite, scratch, or saliva exposure into a wound or mucous membrane cannot be ruled out.

Direct contact with a bat is defined as a bat touching or landing on a person.

In a child, a bat landing on clothing could be considered a reason for intervention, as a history to rule out a bite, scratch or mucous membrane exposure may not be reliable.

From 1998 to 2009, NACI recommended that people who may not be aware of or able to report a bat bite (e.g., sleeping person, young child, cognitively impaired) be offered intervention if a bat was found in the room with them. This recommendation was revised (as described above) in 2009 based on the rarity of human rabies related to bats (one case in Canada reported approximately every 5 years). Analysis conducted in Canada estimated that a case of human rabies related to bedroom exposure to a bat (i.e., finding a bat in the room of a sleeping person with no recognized physical contact with the bat) is expected to occur in Canada once every 84 years. In addition, it has been determined that, to prevent one case of rabies from bedroom exposure to a bat, using a conservative estimate, 314,000 people would need to be treated.

Nerds like us can argue until we are blue in the face, 99% of the public will continue to call it Linux. GNU/Linux is a good way to prompt those not in the know to learn some of the history while still being understandable as Linux, that is the current and best solution, I do not think it is unresolved.

Stunt driving is a pretty serious crime that can have jail time, this is just what they can do without a trial.

This happens a lot more than the cops would have you believe, but a stopped cop isn’t able to catch up usually.

I know someone who did toronto to ottawa (~450km) in 2.5 hrs multiple times on a motorbike, although that was over a decade ago.

This is of course incredibly dangerous and I do not endorse this behaviour.

Imagine an article for TF1:

A valve engineer used Google to find a new matchmaking algorithm for Team fortress and now it’s in the game

Wow I knew all this happened, but I didn’t realize it happened in 2005, I thought it was much older. What a hero!

I think this will cause as many problems as it solves (from Reddit’s POV), going private has always been a panic button for mods when shit hits the fan. Now those controversies will have much longer to build and have news stories written about it first. Short sighted.

I downvoted because it’s a collection of multiple topics, which I don’t think is really good for lemmy style discussion. 1 post 1 topic.
