Technology@lemmy.world•A web page that shows you everything the browser told it without askingEnglish
2·5 months agoI guess I was mostly put off by the sensationalism. Everything is saturated with it these days.
You made an interesting point though, about people being new to this. I’m an old man. The internet wasn’t even a thing until I was in my early teens. It was sort of a Wild West situation for a while there and guarding personal info was the norm. But these days information gathering is built into every device, website, app, etc. To people growing up with this now it probably seems like it’s just the way things are done and nothing to worry about. I can see it being useful for pointing that out. I think it would be more useful though if it focused more on showing how to counteract these things, rather than just being scary.

182·5 months agoThe location is off by about fifty miles. It didn’t get my GPU or battery level. Everything else is stuff that doesn’t matter. Firefox browser, English, android device. I am not terribly impressed.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•"You look like you're on steroids" said as an insult to a natural person is usually taken as a complement. What are some other examples of an intended insult that's typically taken as a complement.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Guide to configuring Arch Linux like Manjaro with Cinnamon desktop?
4·6 months agoI’ll second this. I left Manjaro for EndeavourOS a few weeks ago and, so far at least, the experience has been flawless.

Transfem@lemmy.blahaj.zone•why the hell do i need to validate my identity to new people in psychologyEnglish
1·7 months agoI know you said you’re not looking for advice so feel free to ignore this, but have you heard of the Secular Therapy Project? Their main focus is to connect people with non-religious therapists to ensure science based care, but religion doesn’t have to be your motivation for them to help. Seeing how dysphoria IS a scientific, evidence based condition and the therapists they work with are vetted for that, I thought it might be worth looking into. Check out the website if you think so as well.
Edit: trying to figure out how to embed a link.

politics @lemmy.world•330 gallons of sulphuric acid was purchased for Epstein Island
12·8 months agoI second this. Sulfuric acid was my entire job for eleven years. It would definitely do the job, but it’s not as simple as dropping a body into a drum with it. You’d need a lot more of it, heat, pumps for a circulation system, filtration for the parts that it won’t eat through right away (hair and fingernails, possibly teeth). There are much more efficient ways to get rid of a body. Especially on an island.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What are the fastest moving objects with some mass in everyday life?
2·8 months agoHuh. That’s disappointing.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Who is an artist or public figure you still enjoy despite them being cancelled for bad behaviour?
10·9 months agoI have learned a lesson today. From now on when someone says, “I wouldn’t recommended looking into this,” I think I’ll just leave it alone.

Now that one goes after a whole lot more info than the other. I was pretty happy to see the amount of “unknown” and “permission not granted or denied” responses though.
