News@lemmy.world•Kars4Kids ad pulled in California for failing to disclose that the money raised is funding trips to Isreal for teens
101·1 day agoThis has been an open secret for YEARS. I remember joking about this with my buddies when I was a kid: Yes, the donations help kids… But they don’t mention it’s just Kars for OUR OWN kids.
Now THIS is a country that knows how to glad-hand a dictator.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Do you have advice as to where to find hardware to practice?English
41·1 day agoNot a lot you can do with phones unfortunately. You could set them up as basic fileservers using CopyParty or Syncthing. Don’t use it for anything critical - these are not backup solutions.
Set up Tailscale to access it outside your network.
I’ve been told that government auctions canbe a good source for cheap used PCs but I never had much luck there. I suspect that they get snatched up quickly and stripped for parts. Try eBay or Mercari?

Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•Washington man arrested for allegedly throwing rock at seal in MauiEnglish
67·2 days agoApparently after this he also hit some locals on their fists with his face. I hope the seal and their fists are okay.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•If something could rotate infinitely after being initially pushed, would the initial push disqualify it from being classed as perpetual motion?

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•Your next glasses should have a very thin frame so that people don't need to wonder if you're filming
21·3 days agoIn reality the fashion trend will probably swing the other way. More high profile people will be wearing thicker frame glasses, so people will generally begin to perceive them as more elegant and attractive.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What do I need to know to install grapheneOS on a Google Pixel?
2·3 days agoOh, yeah. This is a good point. A lot of things require their own apps to do now and quick installation is not always easy. I’ve had issues that were solvable but required some effort like this. Some friends invited me to a scavenger hunt and it took a while to get the app working (another friend on iOS couldn’t get it working either, so probably not a great design). Every parking lot wants a different app these days, which can be a pain.
Event ticketing, work apps, etc may take a little longer than normal to find, install, and get working. Not like you can explain in a group setting, “ackshully, my phone isn’t working because its BETTER.”

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What do I need to know to install grapheneOS on a Google Pixel?
2·3 days agoI’ve just set it up about a month ago. Some apps work fully and some only halfway. I think it has to do with some kind of authentication that Android is doing. So CoMaps only works for turn by turn, but they have said if it is installed from the Play Store, then it will work fully. Sandboxed Google Maps works seamlessly.
Audio apps play in the mini player, including basic controls (play/pause, skip, etc.), but I get a crash anytime I try to launch one on the car’s fullscreen console.
As I said, I’ve just set it up and haven’t tinkered with it yet; it could be user error still.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What do I need to know to install grapheneOS on a Google Pixel?
2·3 days agoMy banking apps mostly work, but with some functionally problems. I can’t get Zelle to work or CashApp, so quick payments and transfers are problematic.

World News@lemmy.world•Brazil's beloved instant payment system faces scrutiny from the Trump administrationEnglish
111·4 days agoA better question is why the US can’t figure out this kind of payment system. Isn’t Trump supposed to be the crypto President?

Technology@lemmy.world•Amazon employees are “tokenmaxxing” due to pressure to use AI toolsEnglish
191·4 days agoYeah… totally normal that a new technology has to be shoehorned into the workforce. I’m sure they only need to enforce its adoption because it is so useful.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•If something could rotate infinitely after being initially pushed, would the initial push disqualify it from being classed as perpetual motion?
2·4 days agoYes, although quantum effects also slow spinning celestial objects/systems, even in the absence of measurable tidal effects. That would take much, much longer to slow down.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Are stepkids of super wealthy people kind of rich by extension?
5·5 days agoI know of a wealthy family who own a mid-sized company and referred to a second wife of one brother as a “newcomer” for close to 20 years. They did everything in their power to minimize the wealth she and her kids got when he tragically died.
They were still pretty well-off, but not super wealthy. There can be really complicated dynamics around family money, so it could go either way.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•If something could rotate infinitely after being initially pushed, would the initial push disqualify it from being classed as perpetual motion?
51·5 days agoNo, if something rotated infinitely, that still violates thermodynamics and is “perpetual motion.”
This of course is impossible. Even the Earth slows down by about 2 ms per century due to tidal forces.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Best way to manage all my services as containers?English
3·5 days agoI was using CLI exclusively for a year or so, but recently added DockMon and it’s helped with updates and at-a-glance management.
