Yeah I don’t know about that, it rolled out globally a month later.

To be fair a lot of people have it on TestFlight because originally that was the only way to get it.

Except imessage and facetime are end-to-end encrypted in China.

Leafly lists 6,822 cannabis strains. Though ‘strains’ or more aptly cultivars are often not reflective of the actual underlying chemical nature of the plant [source]. They are ultimately not very meaningful in general.

Based on this database, Europe has 104 varieties of hemp registered.

Canada has 87 but there is probably overlap.

Though potatoes and cannabis aren’t really a fair comparison for many reasons. There are a lot of different species of potatoes with major chromosomal differences but cannabis only has 3 species.

I’d say it’s mostly garbage. It introduces annoying pop-ups. You can turn them off but it’s grating.

E.g. every time you connect to a new screen it asks to go into presentation mode.

I’d say anything parallels toolbox can do, I can find an open source tool which can do it better. Sort of a jack of all trades, master of none.

Though I could see it being useful for a non-power user that is afraid of installing software.

While I’ve never used it personally I’ve heard good things about cloudflare tunnel.

That’s cool, I’ve been passively wanting a brew/apt alternative for windows for years. I had no idea Microsoft made one.

E.g. you’re the mod of the vacuum cleaner subreddit. A business approaches you offering payment to recommend their vacuum in the wiki of the sub.

On Reddit, I think a lot of them monetize it. But generally speaking it’s a rewarding thing to feel like you’re building something greater than yourself.

It makes it so that if you visit another instance using their URL, it will redirect you to your home version’s federated link.

E.g. if your home server is Lemmy.world, let’s say you find a link to Lemmy on another website but it’s a link to Lemmy.ml. If you click the link, you won’t be signed in.

So like:

https://lemmy.ml/c/memes would redirect to https://lemmy.world/c/memes@lemmy.ml

This way you can seamlessly use Lemmy.

Though I’m not familiar with this particular script. Scripts should be verified for security before installation.

Everyone online is a bot except you.

Ever since firefox switched to quantum it’s been great. I would say it outperforms chromium under typical circumstances.

They don’t advertise it, just message support from your .edu email and tell them your username. They’ll apply it and let you use the STUDENT promo code. It’s 50% off the year plan so $5 a month.

Basically 3 good choices

ProtonVPN AirVPN IVPN

Proton has a 50% off student discount bringing the price down to $5 a month for all proton services.

IVPN is probably the best but most expensive.

I mean it’s not like a VPN is providing major anonymity. We already know all the major providers are tapped. You should treat any VPN like a spy agency.

If you need anonymity, a free VPN is probably not the best place to look.

Also they could correlate your network traffic without you logging in. That is not a requirement. No matter what, any VPN is going to give some kind of unique user identifier.

In the past, Reddit alternatives pretty much existed only for the least savory people (i.e. nazis)

Now Reddit has caused an exodus of good users, a bit different.

The bidet has a hot air dryer. Truly living in the future.

I didn’t watch the video but you can use DNS over HTTPS in Firefox to accomplish the same thing. It’s just a setting.

Though you’ll only be protected in Firefox.

Kind of crazy to think that AI in games has never really evolved past this game. In many cases modern games have far worse AI than FEAR,

When my Muslim coworker told me that they didn’t use toilet paper and found it disgusting.

I later got a bidet and have never looked back.
