Yes. If you want to block this, you either have to edit the source code or, at the load balancer/reverse proxy, block /api/v3/comment/like if the POST body’s JSON content contains like with value -1.
I totally agree, but unless there’s something wrong with their mental faculties, they can choose back pain over TV savings. The downside of freedom of choice is that people make the wrong choices all the time.
Even if you cut 120 dollars a month, a good mattress will still be half a year or longer in the future. And that’s with a normal one, not a medical mattress.
“Best by” often means “will lose taste over time and taste worse by” when it comes to chemical products like these.
If this stuff contains lots of sugar or no natural compounds at all, give it a try, I guess. Especially if they’re sealed in a box. Trust your senses, don’t try too much at once if you don’t know if it’s still good, and don’t swallow until you’ve verified there’s no taste of rot or other grossness. If you want more safety, have a bottle of vodka ready to rinse your mouth with in case you do notice a bad taste.
If these powders are completely dry and stored airtight (and the packaging isn’t damaged), you could probably store them for literal decades without a problem. If there’s stored in uncoated cardboard (no sealing lining), maybe treat them as mold infested, even before their expiration date. The way they’re stored makes all the difference.
I fucking hate apps. Maybe I don’t hate them enough to warrant 120 a month, but I can see why people pay extra not to have to bother with figuring out what show is on what app and how to search and cast and browse the damn things
If they use the TV box all the time, why do they have those apps?
You showed them the price difference. They clearly value the current setup over the savings. Unless they’re using your money to pay for all this, just drop it.
Bluesky people don’t care about federation and the main server is the only relevant one anyway. In theory other platforms like Twitter and Facebook could start speaking ATProto, but I doubt it to be honest.
The web is controlled by the IETF+WHATWG+some other acronyms but that doesn’t stop Google from inventing stuff like WebBluetooth and putting it in their browsers. Just because a standard is run by the community doesn’t mean it won’t be extended with proprietary options, just that those proprietary options won’t break everyone else’s experience.
Android users all kinds of overlays over the sdcard directory. This is part of how it enforces storage access for apps. There’s probably a way to override these settings, but they sure as hell aren’t easy.
There’s also another layer of permissions somewhere seeing as I can’t access certain files on /sdcard that were created by the recovery. I assume it’s an selinux context issue (it always is).
Changing ownership should work on real SD cards with normal storage, but it won’t for the emulated internal /sdcard.
Bonuses always come with a catch. Stocks are just tricks to make you cover for the company, because if you turn whistleblower you’re going to want to protect your wallet, and selling your stock right before going whistleblower can be seen as market manipulation. That stuff is a nice bonus, but there’s no guarantee you’ll ever receive any value out of them.
As for 401ks, most people are financially illiterate. They either lack the knowledge or lack the time or energy to figure all that shit out.
To anyone with stock market experience, the American 401k system is probably much better than normal pensions because you get to be in control. However, most people are complete idiots when it comes to money, and are easily tricked into dumping their retirement funds into worthless schemes pumped by scammers.
With normal pensions, everything is taken care of and you can’t even touch your money without going through a maze of rules and protections. With 401ks, you’re on your own.
There’s also a responsibility component. Many pension plans have preset rates that the company pays into, while many 401k setups involve voluntary contributions. When you’re earning minimum wage, you can’t afford to put any money into a 401k, or maybe you could but you really want to eat out once a month, so you’re taking the extra money for your retirement and spending it right now.
If bonuses or stock payouts are even an option, a 401k may be the best solution for you. That’s a pretty privileged position to be in, though.
