The FTC didn’t use Signal, Amazon did though for internal communications. When FTC started their investigation, Amazon quickly used the features of signal to delete all their internal communications because they were too spicy for the public and the FTC.

HP inkjets are horrendous. I absolutely refuse to buy them because they are absolute junk. They have always worked, and I could connect to them with no problems with Android atleast. Windows finally could connect once I had assigned it a permanent local IP through the router. Though Linux had problems…

But the build quality of HP inkjets are absolute horrendous and I probably can only get 6 months out of them and probably spent more on ink cartridges in a year before the stupid printers suffer a complete hardware failure and need to be replaced.

The HP mfp 183fw colour LaserJet printer however… It is my second forray into HP laserjets since my dad’s original black and white Hewlett Packard LaserJet beast from the early 90’s.

But I feel like I got incredibly lucky after doing some research into it (plus only thing I could get locally at the time since I needed a new printer immediately.) It cost more than any of the inkjets I have owned in the past. The toner carts definitely cost more… But it is still going strong a year and a half after purchasing it and I have only had to replace the black toner cart only a week or two ago. Have not had to replace the colour toner carts yet. It also just works on Linux which I am happy about.

Like I said, I may have just gotten incredibly lucky though, I mean getting a year and a half out of it is still more than I expected and the money I saved because toner lasts much longer than ink.

When and if this printer gives up, I will probably get an Epson laserjet.

Best alternative to OneDrive is NextCloud or OwnCloud.

Though you will need to setup your own server (can be just some old desktop/laptop collecting dust or a raspberry pi) to run either one, plus get your own web domain (cloudflare I recommend for getting one.)

But it is so worth it if you need cloud storage and want full control of all your files.

All I want from my printer/scanner is to press print, and have it not change its IP address so Windows can’t find it.

Easy fix, go into your router and setup a local static IP for your printer. Sometimes called DHCP IP reservation.

It should give a list all devices and their mac address on your network. Select your printer, then put in the current local IP the printer is using or a new local IP (setting a new local IP will require you to turn your printer off and back on after you save the changes to ensure the new local IP is handed out to the printer.)

Save changes, and you should never have to worry about the printer changing local IP’s ever again.

Union busting jackass…

Sigh We do not need American Civil War 2… Electric Boogaloo…

This is a worse sight than a guy suffering from testicular torsion.

Besides Blender, the only other software I could find that can handle jewelry designing would be LibreCAD.

But it only works in 2D. It does offer an isometric view function though so it could still work out if he wants to design jewelry.

Isn’t XXXX ultra-porn? Last I checked you need to be a 160 years old to rent and purchase it.

Amazing and thank you!

Phill Kline was not disbarred, he had an indefinite suspension of his Kansas law license. Meaning he cannot practice law for 3 years.

Kline, now an assistant professor of law at Liberty University in Virginia, will have to wait three years if he wants to seek reinstatement of his Kansas law license, according to Kansas Supreme Court rules.

In Friday’s order, the court rejected the recommendation of the state’s disciplinary administrator for attorneys, who had sought Kline’s disbarment. It also ruled that Kline did not violate four other rules that a state disciplinary panel had previously found he had.

Since that article was published in 2020, Kline will be eligible to reinstate his Kansas law licence in November of this year.

Skrmetti may face something similar in Tennessee, but more than likely his sentence will be a much lighter slap on the wrist compared to what Kline got…

This is not a violation of their constitutional rights though… This is just a ban on copies of certain books from being in the school library. They want the bible included in that.

This is not saying a student who owns their own private copy of say, the bible, cannot bring their own copy to school and read it. Is only banning the library from carrying a copy.

No one’s constitutional rights are being violated.

And it’s been almost 20 years since I was in a US public school, but as I understood it back then, the public schools could not carry copies of the bible even if they wanted too.

Mullvad is the best option.

It’s cheap, they respect your privacy, and it should already be in the AUR if you are on any Arch based distro.

Which is fine. I can use that on my server. But I am looking at Opensuse to replace Fedora on my desktop and laptop.

Pasteurized eggs are all you really need. It kills most of the germs including most of the salmonella in the egg but their is a slight chance you might still catch it, but the chances of catching it are extremely small with pasteurized eggs.

My suggestion is to crack your pasteurized eggs into a a separate bowl and make sure their is no blood. If their is any blood, either pitch the egg or cook it properly as not to waste it.

Remnants of blood will still contain salmonella. But cooking that egg will kill the salmonella.

I’ve been making Tamago Kake Gohan for the last month or two now for breakfast and it is extremely good.

Huh, may be switching to OpenSuse in the future.

More demographics will come, it takes time. That and people who are willing to break from the habits of flocking to the next big corporation built social media network for something smaller, but more meaningful.

What classifies as Retro… Hmm… The last retro consoles would have to be the original Xbox, PS2, GameCube and Dreamcast.

Xbox360, PS3, Wii would still be in that middle ground of not quite retro but not quite modern either. They won’t exactly be retro, atleast for me, till 2035-36 at the latest.

I don’t use wefwef or Memmy since I am on Android. But you can block the bot. And wefwef and Memmy should have a way to do it. Otherwise use the web interface. I ended up blocking the bot myself because I found the bot annoying.

That and I would rather curate topics from reddit with an RSS reader making the bot entirely pointless for me.

For me, I am on my mobile 90% of the time, though I am at my desktop a lot of that time as well. But I use my desktop mostly for gaming and work purposes. My mobile is where most my entertainment and web stuff happens. (￣ω￣;)

Web interfaces on mobile stink most of the time. Let’s be honest. And Reddit’s was bad. Even old.reddit.com looked bad on mobile.

My favorite 3rd party app for Reddit was Joey. And why I loved it was that it was a simple and intuitive interface that made browsing reddit fun. Like other 3rd part apps, Joey had a menu screen you opened to see your list of subscribed subreddits, but it also had tabbed subreddits where I could scroll over from one subreddit I was viewing to another. It was a really nice interface.

It also made reddit much more accessible for mobile users like myself which when compared to the atrocious 1st party reddit app… It was a night and day difference. Joey was quick, it was fast, it was intuitive, when their were bugs they were immediately fixed. Where as the official reddit app was slow, it was buggy, when 3 bugs were fixed, 12 new ones always cropped up immediately after. I never saw that with Joey.

Lemmy is kinda along these same lines. The web interface on desktop is fine, but on mobile, it stinks. So developers of all sorts including former 3rd partyreddit app developers (Sync for Reddit) are getting in on developing apps for Lemmy because they want to create a better mobile experience.

Currently I am using Jerboa since I like it the most, and it is the most feature rich at the moment. But I am testing and trying out other Lemmy apps to find any others that will be a better fit down the line.
