Forget star signs, what key do you press to wake up your computer from sleep?
  • Idk how anyone does anything else. It’s in the corner, easy to hit…. It’s basically only a modifier key, so it will do nothing but wake the computer.

    I don’t want to type a space, or accidentally close something.

    What if Tyrannosaurus Rexes moved and walked like chicken do?
  • Def 100 chicken sized t-rex, they’re not pack hunters, so you won’t have to deal with a big coordinated attack. Just have to fight the tiny-rex a few at a time.

  • Are you sure it’s not helping your ADHD? The emotional regulation improvements could very well be ADHD improvements. Have you gone through the titration process?

    Have you got any weird questions for the opposite gender?
  • My wife uses a panty liner when a period is coming up. For my wife at least, it usually comes on light at first and she has a chance to notice when exactly it hits by checking the liner. And once it actually starts then the tampons are used in addition to the liner.

    Is there any closed source android app that you wish had a good open source alternative?
  • I believe google maps pulls its data from municipalities setting up and streaming realtime data using this: https://developers.google.com/transit/gtfs-realtime

    For my city, I was able to pull this GTFS data into my home automation system to show next arrival times for a couple of convenient stops near my home.

    Google Leak Reveals Thousands of Privacy Incidents
  • Mmmm…. I think the title may be a bit strongly worded, but the concept that a big data company like Google isn’t doing what you expect them to be doing with your data…. Despite clear efforts to do so… that’s kind of concerning.

    Like it’s cool that they have this DB and that things like this are getting fixed, it might be nice if they were more transparent about this… but it seems like they’re trying. And yet, so many privacy issues crop up due to the shear quantity and variety of data they process.

    Started reading this book by an ADHDer YouTuber I’ve been watching, and I think it’s really good so far. Only stop reading at page 42 cuz my wife turned off the lights for bed.

    Anyone else reading it?

    I like the idea of certain features, like “focus filters”, but it’s difficult finding apps that utilize it. I get that not many will, but it seems like it’d be easy to miss useful/neat apps.

    I’m hearing people really love 1password. I believe they also were the first ones to come up with a mobile-friendly implementation prior to iOS/Android support for third party password managers.

    Seems like 1password has been and is on the ball as far as having the freshest features the fastest.

    Their foot steps sound like they just have 2 pegs for feet… they hit so hard.

    And they frequently, almost daily, spend the entire evening stomping around the entire footprint of their apartment.

    Are there people who really just get the top floor, and think “I’m so smart, and everyone else can get fucked” then proceed to make all the fucking noise in the world?

    I'm hoping there's something decent available for the area, I've been scouring the internet and all I'm coming up with is:

    • Sporadic data from a couple of sources on National Allergy Bureau
    • Paid API's with questionable accuracy, since they offer 'hyperlocal' information for the whole globe.
    • Daily information that is super vague

    In San Antonio, through the NAB, there was a daily M-F report with detailed allergen info. I really want that for Portland.

    I want to know which specific allergens are in the air to help me figure out why I've been producing copious amounts of mucous this week, and be able to plan outdoor activities / meds with ample information.

    I struggle to click on anything that has a height of 1 line of texts. Short comments, post titles… other stuff

    It’s actually pretty aggravating.

    Idk what the solution is for this, but it’s a problem I virtually never had w Apollo. Is the touch target only the line of text and not inclusive of the padding around the text?

    I've got Sonos showing up in HomeAssistant, as a media player with all the expected controls and info.

    I tried going through the UI, creating a new homekit integration, accessory mode, selecting just the 1 single sonos to be included.

    This yields me a series of switches in the Home app on my iPhone.

    I've tried adding the sonos through an accessory mode entry in yaml to make it mascarade as a TV and a Receiver, but each time it shows up as a "TV"/"Receiver" in the home app, but with only a power button.

    I've read through https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/homekit none of the troubleshooting tips helped, I heeded all info I could find on media_players, tv, and receivers.

    Can any one help me with this? It seems like it should be possible, I really wan't expecting this to give me the trouble it has.

    Ultimately I just want to be able to control things like play/pause/skip/volume via siri, if you've got other suggestions to that end, I'm all ears.

    The emails look legit, came from noreply@email.apple.com, don't even have a link in them to reset password, just a plaintext url to access appleid settings if I need to reset password.

    > Dear <>, Your Apple ID (<>) was used to sign in to iCloud via a web browser. Date and Time: October 21, 2023, 10:30 PM PDT If the information above looks familiar, you can ignore this message. If you have not signed in to iCloud recently and believe someone may have accessed your account, go to Apple ID (https://appleid.apple.com) and change your password as soon as possible. Apple Support

    I have 2fa enabled, and haven't got a login request any time I've got one of these emails.

    The password isn't used for anything else, and is complicated enough that I highly doubt it was bruteforced.

    The only other thing of note, is that around the time I started getting these emails, my windows machine prompted me a couple of times in a couple of days to re-sign-in to the iCloud desktop app. But the signin requests have stopped on windows, and the emails have continued. Oh, and this desktop currently shows up 4 times in the appleid devices list for some reason.

    Anyone have any idea whats going on?

    As a last resort I may contact apple support, but 1. I've been apple support before, and 2. the couple of times I've been stumped by apple device behavior, even their highest available support specialist couldn't resolve the issue (Though, I did eventually figure it out on my own)

    There is no error or anything when you try to make a post without logging in, it simply sit there w the spinning wheel until you hit cancel. It should prompt to login before user is allowed to compose a post.

    And

    When logging in, visually, it appears that the instance field defaults to lemmy.world, however the field is treated as blank

    And and

    Had to navigate away from login page after the above issue left the page in a faulted state and wouldn’t let me press “login” again after filling out the instance field.

    This is such an important feature to me, as a person who really likes to engage in back and forth comment conversations, timely responses are immensely helpful, and only feasible with notifications.

    I’m aware there are on going costs, personally I’m happy to pay a couple of bucks a month for push notifications alone. More if other features are also included.

    Still trying to figure out reproduction steps, but it happens frequently.

    I get a push notification for a new comment reply (from another lemmy app) while browsing inside of Avelon. I click inbox and see no new reply.

    I go to pull to refresh, but it won’t refresh, no icon or anything. Just scrolls.

    Workaround: I switch from all inbox to unread and then I can see the new reply.

    Edit (via bean): Seems that all pages, inbox all, inbox unread, and the post view will only refresh once per load. And have to be navigated away from before they can be refreshed again.

    I rewatched an old but good video on the war on drugs. And it reminded me, that tlaw enforcement is AT BEST 1 step ahead of some criminals. But that the criminal element is always rapidly adapting, and the best thing we can do against drugs and crime is to focus on the demand side.

    We legalized the drugs, but didn't do the more important half of that solution, treatment and services for the drug users.

    So, why aren't we doing more? Who dropped the ball? Are we doomed to just keep throwing more law enforcement at the problem?
