Slashdot. I have a very low 3 digit UID. I followed Rob Malda’s blog before he registered the domain.

I remember having Netscape open on the site and reading it. I walked a couple blocks to by a pack of smokes. Got back home and refreshed the page. Noticed a new post with site registration available, so of course I did.

To this day I still get password reminder requests to my email that I never sent.

I still comment and sometimes get some people replying noticing the low UID.

Silly I know, but it’s cool to me anyway.

I’ve been to Venezuela twice for some extended stays. First time when Chavez was still around. Second time when Maduro was a couple years in office. I can still remember listening to his radio addresses. I remember feeling the heat off the asphalt in the city, the crazy traffic, the beautiful beaches.

Looking down from the hills onto the canopy below and seeing fireworks at midnight Christmas Eve into Christmas. I knew id never be back as it was dangerous AF then (2013 last time).

We would say it was once a beautiful country but now it’s just a beautiful land.

You go to Aldi for the staples to save a ton of money. Supplement elsewhere for other things. I used to live in Chicago and there was a Trader Joe’s on top of an Aldi on the same building (same ownership in believe). It was glorious.

I remember in the mid 90s I was looking at Linux World’s website and they had just implemented account registrations that same day. I was fuzzing the website and they had left directory browsing enabled and the users, passwords, and email was sitting in a plain text flat file that was world readable.

I emailed them, didn’t get a response but within the hour the registration/login was disabled along with no more directory browsing.

Respectfully, I am incapable of driving and need to get to doctors appointments and no longer live in an urban environment where cabs and public transportation is highly accessible.

It is what it is.

I spend way too much on my smart phone. That’s correctable, but I depend on Uber/Lyft. I think I would need to get a cheap android and just have the discipline to put only essential apps like ride share, maps, encrypted messenging and like nothing else. Not even email, Lemmy, bill pay, grocery delivery, etc

Amazon Warehouse I believe is open box and returns. It also gets confusing that marketplace sellers are mostly outside of Amazon’s control

Jewish man here. Our Rabbi left our (mostly) progressive Temple to form his own so he could be a leader in the Jewish space to advocate for Gazans/Palestinian civilians and speak out against the fascist Likuds.

I am so proud of him.

There are many of us, also inside of Israel, that condemn all genocides, including the one in Gaza.

I first started on Mosaic and Lynx! That was a lifetime ago.

I just switched to it on my android. Set as default. So far so good. Never heard of it until today.

I’m a fucking Cloud Systems Engineer with 20 years in and at my new job IT wouldn’t give me local admin and wouldn’t approve hardly any software installation requests. Yet if I wanted to I could wipe every single customer’s data and destroy them all. Doesn’t make sense

Does anyone know if it’s possible to run a self-hosted Jellyfin server without having to run an entire data center on your house? I could do something simple like a NUC or equivalent and a tiny NAS, anything else?

Can someone help me understand? It honestly sounds like he really did it but very well could get off on a technicality which to me is fine. I’ve had so many loved ones kicked off health care during terminal diseases and I despise for-profit model of the industry.

But it really seems like he did it, yet I see so many people questioning that. I’m just curious why that is.

That’s how Thug Kitchen started. To cut through the crap but also be funny at the same time

Yeah, Trump ran to theeft of Hillary on multiple fronts. I knew he was full of shit but I remember pointing out said positions and watching all the polls across swing districts everywhere just surge to the right that summer of '16

I stopped listening to him after his stance on Ukraine. You could listen to his rhetoric on how the imperialist US invaded Vietnam and did horrible things there, but replace the US with Russia and Vietnam with Ukraine and it’s the same. But some how many leftists only care about some, but not all genocides.

That being said, everyone is innocent until proven guilty so I’ll withhold my judgement for now. Anyone who did any child raping just be villified and punished regardless of their politics.

I got like 10 follows in three days from actual accounts. I’ve posted/replied just a few times and my avatar is Richard Simmons. I figured something was up

I love my Instant Pot. You can probably find used ones now. It makes perfect rice and I use it to make oatmeal from steel cut oats nearly every morning. I also use it to steam vegetables like broccoli, especially potatoes for when I make mashed potatoes.
