I went to a private religious school and they made a rule that there couldn’t be any PDA (public displays of affection) between opposite sexes. And they ruled that pretty well with an iron fist.

So we took that in the opposite direction, and I don’t think the administration ever saw so much guy on guy slapping of butts, “Hey bigais”, or pecks on the cheek in their lives.

Hadn’t heard of Bilmuri before. Thanks for mentioning them.

It more negatively affected the customer I was serving, but when I worked in food services, for all of two weeks, the credit card processing machine was sticky from someone spilling soda on it and the buttons stuck and gave an extra press or two.

So I charged a couple over $2,000.00 for two sandwiches, fries and medium drinks when trying to quickly enter in the charge and hit enter.

The manager spent ~20 minutes on a call with the payment processor and was able to reversed it and all was resolved but I panicked there for a bit.

Makes me wonder what they are getting out of it. I mean if it is just volunteer work, the job goes to shit, the company you are volunteering your time with threatens you, why not drop it and take it to another platform where you would be appreciated.

Maybe they have a good reason to cave. But I can’t see it and my naivety just makes me think they are getting kickbacks somewhere somehow.

Your ISP has assigned that IP to you. It may be temporary for anywhere from a month or so to a year. But either way that is the IP sites will see when you visit a web site or view the images OP is talking about. It can fingerprint you to a degree. And ISPs can and do keep track of who they have assigned ip addresses to.

Regardless of company size or popularity, that is sketchy. While not perfect by any means , google play affords some security scanning and privacy awareness info on apps that are published there. Others are probably right. And I bet DJI probably wanted to skip that step to trade for ease of management. But any time you install something off a non play store repo you take on a little extra risk.

There is a lot of helpful information there. I hope that some of that can stay as search indexing on archive sites is difficult.

All that said, I just deleted my accounts I had with them. If I use it, it will be without being logged in and only the odd search for something I need.

And hopefully, improvements to platforms like Lemmy grow to where I can search for what I need there or find the best community to ask a question in a few seconds rather than 5-10 minutes. No hate, just where the platform is at right now with the influx.

Oh I didn't realize they were relying on websockets!

When an update releases, does this instance automatically update? Or do you have to initiate it via ansible, docket pull, or something else?

I have also found that sometimes you can browse to a remote community to get the federated subscribe option. I'm at lemmy.einval.org, but I can go to another community by browsing like this:

https://lemmy.einval.org/c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

This doesn't always work, and seems to require performing that search you mentioned first to make it work consistently. Then it can be browsed to directly.

I hope this is improved on in the future.

I almost joined lemmy.ml until I saw their post asking for people to find other servers that interested them and federate off of their content.

Luckily I found this one with some categories I appreciate already.
