Why bother? They're safe at room temperature unless they've already been refrigerated, might as well use that fridge space for some that actually benefits from the cold.

At room temperature they're good for a month or two. If you want long term storage you might as well prep and freeze them which will last you about a year, or there's a ton of other long-term preservation techniques.

"Better economy" is vague and nebulous, it's my belief that if someone tells you that's why they voted they way they did they either didn't care enough to actually look into their candidates' policies or they're trying to hide the real reason they voted. And it's very unlikely if their primary concern is the economy they wouldn't bother looking into economic policy beforehand. If that's what they truly voted for they'd have specific concrete talking points instead, eg changes to some specific tax or changes in funding for some specific type of business.

The same goes for candidates with a platform of "better economy". Is it a better economy if everyone still struggles as they do now but the people at the top get infinitely richer? Is it a better economy if all big businesses fail but more people now have enough to live healthily and safely? "The economy" is too broad, it means nothing. Specific policy or it's all bullshit.

That seems iffy to me, that font only has upper case. I ran it through myself and got Caligula Regular, a free (afaik, check before use) font which seems to fit just as well.

I don't exist (programming.dev)

I signed in this morning and checked my profile to find I'm not actually here. Did anyone else accidentally stop existing overnight?

I leave on time, how is that an insult? I'd be much more insulted if someone asked me to work for them for free. That's what unpaid overtime is.

Not sure exactly how long this has been happening, but it's been bugging me for the last week at least.

Running Firefox 129.0 (64-bit) on Linux Mint, it seems like the login session is just constantly expiring. Every time I boot up my machine the first time I open programming.dev I have to sign in again. Closing all programming.dev tabs and navigating back to programming.dev without closing Firefox seems to always preserve the session and not require a new sign-in.

~~Closing all Firefox windows then opening Firefox and navigationg to programming.dev is a semi-reliable way to reproduce, about 75% of the time it requires a new sign-in even when I'd signed in less then a minute ago before closing the window.~~ Further testing shortly before submitting this post and those steps no longer reproduce the issue, I'm signed in even after closing the window. Maybe it's a recurring transient issue with login service?

Potentially relevant add-ons are UBlock Origin (0 blocks, shouldn't be an issue) and Privacy Badger (also 0 trackers blocked). I'm connected through VPN, but the issue seems to appear regardless of whether I stay on the same VPN server or switch servers. Firefox reports Content-Security-Policy issues but these seem unrelated and also appear when the session is successfully preserved.

Possibly helpful, occasionally when I open programming.dev I'll see it's signed out then automatically signs in after a second or so; this might have been a known Lemmy issue at some point with delayed authentication as a (now insufficient) solution. A good chance that's a dead-end, might be worth checking anyway.

Edit: It's worth noting that I'm also signed in via the android Jerboa app on another device and don't get signed out there. This could definitely be relevant if it turns out the Jerboa session somehow interferes with the Firefox session.

My gut reaction is that this won't work long-term. Users on youtube often point to specific timestamps in a video in comments or link to specific timestamps when sharing videos, meaning there needs to be some way to identify the timestamp excluding ads. And if there's a way to do that there's a way to detect ads.

Of course, there's always the chance they just scrap these features despite how useful they are and how commonly they're used; they've done similar before.

QR codes essentially just encode text, as long as you're using a sensible QR code reader and check any URLs before opening them there's minimal risk to scanning a QR code.

with extras like [..] no lockscreen ads

What the fuck? Why is that an extra not just the default? It's great that this product isn't riddled with ads, but that's like saying it's great a burger is not made of human shit; it's crazy that anyone would tolerate a shit-burger in the first place.

Maybe ads are normal in the e-reader space for some reason, but that's just insane to me.

You're not wrong, but the first words are literally "Just over a decade ago". It's not a news article, it's the story of the research in 2013 which revealed bitcoin isn't anonymous.

In place of cookies, Google has introduced a new set of tools that makes the Chrome browser itself keep tabs on what you’re doing online.

So instead of cookies which can be blocked or deleted relatively simply there's spyware baked directly into the browser. How is this an improvement for the user?

Public transport too. It really seems like every time a public service is privatised it goes to shit, almost as if for-profit motives aren't aligned to public interest.

That's an odd complaint. If they didn't ask for donations, donations would be a lower % of their income. How many donations do you need before you can ask for donations?
