If your purpose for using cash or Monero is privacy, that's fine. If your purpose is to avoid paying fees to third parties just for the privilege of paying by a certain method, the swap service just takes the place of Visa/Mastercard.

As a 911 operator, I hate the SOS function and it has just gotten worse. Between this and the "car crash" detection, I spend 40% of my work day tracking down false alarms, often at the expense of using resources for actual emergencies. If I ever meet the person who decided to turn on the SOS function by default, I'm going to punch them squarely in the nose.

I hope so. It'll be fun to watch.

Ben and Jerry's used to make oatmeal cookie chunk that was phenomenal. They discontinued it in 2014.

Imgur doesn't seem to integrate well into the Lemmy architecture, what's the current "best practice" for posting GIFs and/or small mp4s like we used to have on v.reddit.com that looks good and plays well with expandos, etc.?

It's that one little chunk at the end that's not covered...

As a full-time linux user since 2005 and a guy who swears every time he has to use a windows machine now, the Windows phone was actually really good. It had very few apps available and it certainly never took off commercially, but my girlfriend had one back in the day and it was a surprisingly nice piece of work.

I have no doubts that if it had gained traction and still been around today that it would be absolutely unusable.

I strangely went the opposite way on that, I liked them as a kid but find them too sour now.

Best of luck! One of these times it'll stick, and until it does every attempt is worth it anyway.

I'm thinking of moving from Mullvad to ProtonVPN mainly for the port forwarding, but I have some questions. The documentation on the ProtonVPN website is dated and I don't know if it's still accurate.

Can you forward multiple ports simultaneously using the ProtonVPN linux app? The documentation also seems to suggest that the forwarded port will change every time I disconnect or reconnect the VPN, necessitating a change in my (ahem) clients' configurations, is that actually the case? If it's not possible to port forward multiple ports at once, can the linux app do split tunneling of my Plex server that's started at boot time?

Thanks to anyone who can answer any of these questions.

That's something that's bugging me. I should at the very least be able to see my own posts on my profile page even with the checkbox off
