Go do Folding@home then. As least you can help research instead of helping big tech.

2FA on the login form is a thing for some sites,

I don’t see the problem?

Where I live bring your own places would be cheap end restaurants not ones that pair the right wine with food.

You mean the soup?

Oh house frames 😅. You mentioned picture frames then a framing hammer, and I was thinking a framing hammer must be small or the picture frame very large!

Next thing you know you’re asking Lemmy how to hold it in for three days.

I have three and don’t love any of them. I didn’t pick them myself they just sort of showed up.

Yeah, there’s a video about it here: https://www.watercare.co.nz/home/about-us/what-we-do/wastewater

It mentions the screening that removes anything bigger than 3mm, including toys, passports, and cash.

This isn’t my local one, my local had a massive failure recently and is a bit fucked so I can’t seem to find the page they have on it, but the page also talked about screening off the solids and mentions toilet paper specifically. My local one also sends the biological solids (the shit) to landfill after water has been removed, which is different than the above one that is apparently using that to turn a quarry into a park.

And just to show it’s not only here, the wikipedia page talks about screening as the first step too.

Toilet paper is biodegradable, and laws around it may also be because of the widespread use of septic tanks which will break down the toilet paper. But septic tanks only work for very low volumes. As mentioned in the above video, wastewater leaves 12 hours after arriving, so the process has to be very quick. You aren’t going to want to pump toilet paper pieces out into the harbour where people swim and lay on the beach, so it’s gotta be screened off and sent to landfill.

It’s still screened off and sent to landfil. “dissolve” isn’t really possible with paper, just breaking into smaller parts.

I’m no expert, but I’m guessing the rules are about the pipes between flushing and treatment, as I can imagine a slurry of toilet paper bits is a lot less likely to create blockages than a mountain of wet wipes.

Toilet paper also requires specific processing of the waste water. It’s normally screened off and sent to landfill when it reaches the treatment plant, but I imagine many countries wouldn’t have this infrastructure.

One of the most horrifying things I know about humans is that almost all of us are susceptible to this and it’s not simply a matter of people kissing their ass, though that certainly “helps”.

This doesn’t have to be true. I have explained to one of my kids when asked why I don’t think the rich are good people.

Me: Well, what would you do with a billion dollars?

Them: buy lots of toys

Me: ok, after you have bought all the toys in the store, what would you do?

Them: Buy toys for all my friends… Well maybe they could have the ones I’m not using. Buy a house? Buy you a new car?

Me: What would you do after you had bought all that and still have almost all of the billion dollars left over, since a billion is so huge?

Them: um, buy houses for the people that don’t have houses? And food for the people that don’t have enough food?

Ultimately I believe that to have a billion dollars for any decent length of time you are probably a bad person, because even a kid’s instinct is to use that money to help others’, even people they don’t know.

While wealth might make people bad as you imply, I think an equally valid option is that good people don’t stay wealthy because they use the money to help others.

That has 8GB RAM. The only reason the Pi in the headline is so expensive is the 16GB RAM. As others mentioned, the 1GB or 2GB options are a fraction of the cost.

I was explaining to my kids about floppy disks, and mentioned the save icon. The what? The button you press to save. It just says “save” they said.

I think they use the Google suite at school, and apparently the save button just says “save”. Although TBH I half expected them to not know of it because of auto-saving.

Yeah I don’t think people defederate based on what happens on your own instance, only what flows to other instances.

If you wanted to help trump, encouraging people not to vote would be almost as good as getting them to vote trump. So I’m not convinced these aren’t more Russian bot campaigns.

I mean what is cheating?

I agree it’s at least not immoral cheating.

Here’s me playing on easy and looking up walkthroughs or help threads when I can’t get past a boss.

Replies on thread: yes, this part is annoying, just put it on easy for this bit and you’ll fly through.

Me: But Doctor, I Am Pagliacci!

As others say, buy a domain so it’s easier in the future.

But one thing what helped me was relay email addresses. Whether that’s Addy, Simplelogin (now owned by proton so probably not), Firefox Relay, or another. When you sign up to shit, buy something, etc, use one of these email addresses. When you eventually move to your new email address, you can cutover all those accounts to the new one by changing the settings for where it forwards email to.

You can also use your own domain with a catchall and make up your own whatever@yourdomain if you’re ready for that.

Ok I have read it over and read all the comments and I have no idea what this comic’s point or punchline is. Any help?

Me too but it’s giving me ideas for next year.
