I would bet that they will restrict the distribution of existing and new vaccines first, and then perform the investigation slowly, wasting money and time, and causing unnecessary harm.

I was told that i’m gay because my SSN ends with 1369. Ohh and also was told i’m gay because my mother’s maiden name is Gaylord. Where do people come up with these rules???

Your point being that it’s futile to cast a vote for something that won’t come to fruition? Thanks for supporting the original point that voting for a third party candidate is a waste of your vote, and just helps Trump.

You don’t need to vote third party to get Ranked Choice Voting. There are ballot measures this election to introduce ranked choice voting, independent on who you vote for President. You can vote for Harris and RCV if you’re in one of these states:

Oregon

Oregon voters will vote on Measure 117 in November 2024 on whether they will use ranked choice voting general elections for statewide and federal offices (starting in 2028).

The Oregon Legislature passed the reform in 2023, but any change to the state constitution requires referral to the voters before enacting.

Colorado

Proposition 131 will appear on Colorado’s November 2024 ballot. If passed, it would establish an “all-candidate primary” where the top four vote getters move on to a ranked-choice general election.

Idaho

Proposition 1 has been certified to appear on Idaho’s November 2024 ballot. If passed, it would establish an “all-candidate primary” where the top four vote getters move on to a ranked-choice general election.

Nevada

Nevada voters will vote in November 2024 on whether they will use open primaries and ranked choice voting general elections (starting in 2026).

Voters already approved it in 2022, but it needs to pass in two consecutive ballot measures in order to amend the state constitution.

Washington D.C.

Initiative 83 will open up the District’s primary elections to allow voters not registered with a political party to participate (~71,000 people). General elections will use ranked-choice voting where voters can rank up to 5 candidates.

Thanks for the heads up, I didn’t have any plans for the next month anyway.

I played the free demo of Factorio for about 10 hours and got hooked. Waited a bit to see if the price would go down, but it didn’t and I didn’t care. Bought it at full price and sunk a few hundred hours into it, which is some of the best entertainment ROI from a cost/hours perspective. It turned out to be a bad ROI from a general life perspective since I didn’t do much else during that time, so be careful to not get too addicted.

Not do downplay this issue, but based on the description, OP had a valid session cookie, and was updating their profile to disable MFA since they lost the code. They weren’t brute forcing logging in.

I haven’t looked into the source code, maybe this is an instance by instance configuration, but login attempts are rate limited. After a few failed attempts, I started getting this message:

Lemmy Error: You’re being rate limited, wait a bit before trying that again.

Interesting, that’s not something I ever thought about. I just looked up the nameservers for .bb:

;; ANSWER SECTION:
bb.			86400	IN	NS	ns5.nic.bb.
bb.			86400	IN	NS	ns3.nic.bb.
bb.			86400	IN	NS	ns2.nic.bb.
bb.			86400	IN	NS	ns1.nic.bb.
bb.			86400	IN	NS	ns4.nic.bb.
bb.			86400	IN	NS	ns6.nic.bb.

It seems like ns1.nic.bb doesn’t resolve, and for 2-6, they’re all in either 64.68.192.0/20 or 64.119.192.0/20, so it does look like a small concentration in root nameservers which could be unavailable in a storm.

Same thing happened to me once tbh. It can happen.

the warning for future tech founders is clear: Be careful when picking your top-level domain. Physical history is never as separate from our digital future as we like to think.

Kinda ironic this is published to a website with a .to ccTLD for the Kingdom of Tonga.

What’s the s3 app for your phone?

FWIW if you have a seed box which you can ssh into, you can setup a SOCKS5 proxy to route all traffic through the seed box. It’ll act like a VPN for you and is the best of both worlds in my opinion. This way your ISP and government can’t block your traffic or see that you’re accessing trackers at all (even to get the magnet links).

Don’t even get me started with about:config

I use PWAs for Firefox and they work ok, although I don’t have the issue you mention. For me, in Ubuntu, if I open a link in a PWA for Google Chat, then the link opens in the PWA firefox window, not my main browser window. Maybe there’s a setting I missed?

Also, the PWA acts like a separate browser, so opening Google Chat requires you to log in again to Google on the same machine. And if you open up a paywalled link, and it opens in the PWA, then you have to log in, even if you’re logged in in Firefox.

Overall 5/7 rating on usability, but did allow me to get completely off of Chrome

Was this scene in the trailers or something ahead of another more popular movie that year? I don’t think I’ve ever seen this movie, but the scene is still burned into my mind 20 years later.

I don’t particularly like Linus, but he was bearable in this video. As someone who assumed this was a SIM swap, I was genuinely as confused as he was playing it up when he was able to place calls but not receive them. That was really interesting.

public facing is fine

Not exactly, if it is something unintentionally public facing, that can get you charged with access a computer without authorization under the the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act. This happened in this case: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goatse_Security#AT&T/iPad_email_address_leak

sending a HTTP request with a valid ICC-ID embedded inside it to the AT&T website, the website would reveal the email address associated with that ICC-ID.

On November 20, 2012, Auernheimer was found guilty of one count of identity fraud and one count of conspiracy to access a computer without authorization

Did uptobox provide seed boxes for torrenting, or what was the service like?
