Final Fantasy XVI. Much more gritty than the others. Just as much angst. Still, I’m enjoying it.

From what I gather, while they track feature usage, they claim they won't track your sites. They still won't help protect your privacy from other apps, companies, and pages.

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.

Is there a new concern around another wave of COVID in the Portland area or from travelers? I haven’t seen a masks required event like this since last year. Not knocking it, just surprising to me from what I’ve seen in the last few months with the CDC removing masking requirements from their guidelines and even hospitals dropping the requirement.

DNS is the phonebook of the internet and other networks.

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.

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.

I mean if you do hit this, like I have. You can just use google's webcached view. or sometimes the internet archive.

I found this covers most of my needs: https://cachedview.com/

 

And another potential title; why some might prefer Firefox or Brave.

I will say, from a corporate setting, edge chromium has done better than I anticipated. They still throw out significant updates and changes like this without warning. But it has done better than its previous version.

 

For the US, I use https://www.cigarsinternational.com/

I have only purchased myself from them once, at the recommendation of someone else, and had a decent experience. I bought a cheap $40 USD sampler pack and they shipped me a $75 pack of Gurkha Park Avenue's accidentally instead. I got a few other's that I got what I paid for in the order, but thought it troublesome if that was

Looking to see what other's would recommend.

Bug in UI (lemmy.einval.net)
 

Interesting UI bug while I was viewing the Death by user count post. The side bar changed to the Beehaw science community, which I had open in another tab. and it says that einval posted it to the science community, not the general community here.

I didn't know einval was the mod of [email protected]? /s

I suspect this relates to something in federating with other communities as I subscribed to that community through the einval server.
