Economy doesn’t benefit you presently unfortunately.

Somehow before shit really hit the fan I was able to land a non developer role at a software company which only asks you to come in twice a week. Looking to move into development at the company, but from the outside software Dev roles are super flooded with applicants right now.

Whatever you do, your chances for remote work are better if you get in with a small company of 10 to 20 people.

Yea, the drying out of the skin with the alcohol reduces the amount of blood, but there is always going to be some. Cutting straight across is a very good way to avoid future issues as well.

Yea, .ml had defederated with it, but any instance can if they want.

Go to a doctor.

I am not a doctor. You should not do anything I describe herein and should consult a medical professional.

I fixed them myself a few times on each foot, trialing and erroring until I found a solution that since using it, has worked well for me in every case.

Note in less extreme cases, you can try to cut a little V in the middle-end of the nail. In my cases, it was much too bad for this to work.

I sanitize the toe and an x-acto knife with a new blade (pointed tip, triangular in shape) that has been cleaned of any foreign substances (such as the oil they sometimes come covered in) with 99% isopropyl and begin cutting a straight, vertical line on the side of the nail that has the issue, as close to the edge as I find reasonable. I go very slow and as light as I can, tracing that line over and over, as I don’t want an x-acto knife plunging into my toe itself. Eventually I make my way through the nail, but the nail is still connected under the cuticle. From this point onward, every day, I unravel cotton balls into strips and wet them thoroughly with alcohol, and then secure a strip or thick, folded pad to my toe with medical tape. The cotton should be very wet, but not dripping wet.

I found that regular bandaids were not effective due to adhesion issues and because they lack the ability to hold enough alcohol in their padding. Each day the skin around the nail will begin to die a little bit and dry out. I use sanitized forceps and the sanitized x-acto to cut a bit more and to pull on the edge of the nail each day (in an up and out fashion and occasionally away from the toe), but try not to force it too much. Eventually the nail breaks and comes off. Where it was dug into the flesh of the toe, there will be a small hole. At this time I sanitize the entire toe and the wound with alcohol. Finally, and the most important part of this process - I do the same process as previously described with the cotton, alcohol, and tape to bandage the toe every day, or twice per day as needed until the nail grows back in correctly. If this is not done, it is likely it will grow back ingrown and you will be at step 1 again.

In my experience, I had to keep it santized with alcohol and very dry. I found that taping it up wet with products such as polysporin prevented healing and would result in the nail becoming ingrown when it grew back in, as well as causing pain and increased inflamation. Using alcohol, day to day the pain lessened and it was able to grow back in normally each time. Needless to say as well, but you want to stay off of that foot as much as possible as walking on it during this process can lead to inflammation.

This process has taken me anywhere between 3 days to 2 weeks depending on how badly ingrown it was.

When it gets fixed it is great, there is almost instant relief from the pain.

Not always true, instances can defederate lemvotes so that it doesn’t function I believe.

Just Lemmy.

I don’t agree with the sentiment that a word used by one guy next to a slur they also used imparts a derogatory meaning to the word as well. If this were the case, we would have a problem with a lot more words.

If someone said “F-slurs shine like a rainbow”, that doesn’t make the words shine or rainbow derogatory.

Furthermore with the contextual usage of glowie considered - if it is derogatory, then its usage shows that its derogatory to members of the CIA rather than people of color.

However if people continue to cite glowie as a slur for people of color, then people might start to use it in that context, and then it becomes a slur for people of color.

Therefore I would recommend not citing the use of the word in this way because all it can do is eventually add a derogatory connotation that doesn’t currently exist outside of being next to a slur during one usage or the creation of it.

I see, thanks.

UpNp or port forwarding is the same way both Plex and Jellyfin work.

I don’t know what makes Jellyfin less secure since they both work the same way for this as far as I can tell…

Can you be more specific about what makes Jellyfin less secure when it comes to UpNp/port forwarding?

In the case of port forwarding at least Jellyfin is open source and has more eyes on it so it’s less likely for someone to zero day it and have at it unless I have misunderstood how each can connect off-network.

Furthermore the hash for your password is stored along with many others at a single (or relatively few) attack point/s on a Plex business server since it’s a centralized business whereas this is never the case for Jellyfin.

Also this thread is about Plex literally selling your personal data so I don’t really consider Jellyfin worse for exposing your personal data.

I’ll take my chances with a single idiot who want’s to compromise my poor asses tiny network versus an actual hacker who wants to compromise an enterprise businesses network that is storing thousands or hundreds of thousands of user credentials, data, and payment information (Which Jellyfin doesn’t store even half of).

If someone hacks Jellyfin on my network -> They have my… media files? Maybe the hash of the one password I use there?

If somone hacks Plex on my network or anywhere - or the people they sold that data to -> They have my password hash, credit card number and probably my name that is associated to it, personal data that Plex is selling, etc.

TL:DR I think Plex is more likely to be hacked rather than myself and the outcome of Plex getting hacked is worse than if my personal Jellyfin server gets hacked.

I went to the Jellyfin landing page, went to the install instructions, copy pasted and ran literally one command, opened it in a browser, made my local account, clicked a button to point it at my media folders and then I was done.

What isn’t easy?

Depends on whose definition it is.

Some define alcoholism as a dependence on the substance alone, others define it as a continued use of the substance despite it causing problems for the individual, other definitions require that the user display signs of physical dependency/withdrawal syndrome when no longer using the substance.

Anecdotally, in my experience usually people only begin referring to someone as an alcoholic when they become physically dependent and experience withdrawals when stopping use.

For me I feel like the real move with one of these is to have it rapidly increase the volume instead of turning off the TV because it will probably make the person who is playing it loud feel like people think it is them who is turning it up that much intentionally.

In most cases I think this would mortify them, leading them to turn it back down further than it was originally, or even turn it off themselves since they don’t want to be seen as an asshole and don’t want the attention on them.

Subconsciously I would also think this would prevent them from turning it up again in the future.

Depends on the person though.

I’ve stopped paying attention to what any regular news source says about anything themselves since it is all basically profit driven and therefore unreliable. Rather I just pay attention to sources where I can see what is said or done from the horses mouth directly, and then pay attention to people’s reactions to such things.

These are usually few and far between, but I’m talking about what was written or said by specific persons with the clear source of it coming from their personally verified outlets.

I also wait on this information before thinking too much about it as well because god knows if someone catches something out for being AI generated or a deepfake or what have you in this day and age. After a few days it gains some actual credibility as coming from that person and being the genuine article.

It is also important to still not trust what any one person says about something else as well, or even multiple persons. I can never really trust what is said by anyone as facts anymore - rather this only gives insight into that specific persons opinions on the other thing.

In the face of mountains of clear evidence and individually verified sources from many multiple persons - then and only then can I begin to trust something as fact.

There isn’t a straightforward way to do it as far as I can see - most likely because instances usually don’t want tonnes of requests for tonnes of data.

If you have knowledge in programming it would be feasible to write a script that either uses the Lemmy API to get this, or otherwise web scrape it.

Missed that update, that’s great to know. Thanks!

However, If I recall correctly, I think that when creating a post if you upload an image then it is immediately put into the database whether or not the post is actually made. As a result I don’t think there is a way to overwrite these, so some trace would still remain in such an instance if I am not mistaken.

Furthermore none of this prevents or rectifies snapshots or backups of data being created by pretty much any entity - I know that’s probably not in the scope of the question, but just something tangentially related to keep in mind.

I’m not looking for anything, I was describing an experience I can’t explain per the thread which was probably mechanical or electrical in nature. Unsure how you got that impression.

One time on a summer day as a teenager I went to the grocery store with my Mom.

We parallel parked the car a ways away from other cars. We secured the car as normal and went on a short shopping trip.

When we came back out after maybe 15 minutes, all of the cars windows were rolled down completely.

We both know for a fact all the windows were rolled up when we left, and even if we had them down, there would have been no reason to have the back windows down.

Nothing was stolen, no one was around, everything appeared untouched.

This was a Nissan Murano if I recall correctly - it did have power windows, but at the time there was no fancy stuff to remote control car features outside of having a remote starter installed, which we did not have.

There was only one set of keys.

We still have absolutely no explanation for this to this day.

Lol, yea I had a similar thought when writing it.

My Mom who plans these games takes it seriously because she wants people to have a good time, but has a really difficult time finding something which she considers accessible enough for everyone while still imparting some kind of challenge. She usually defaults to trivia, but then thinks that it should be Christmas trivia. The problem therein is that after 30 or more years of doing this, it has become wildly stale as there is only so much Christmas trivia, and it is not very engaging at all.

Last year I came to her with about 5 different new game ideas, all but one was shot down for some reason or another. The one that did get through went really well, but I am still thinking of others things I could bring to her well in advance, as she needs to mull over the logistics of whether they would meet her criteria for an acceptable party game.

I’ve heard a lot about Kubernetes, but haven’t actually had to interact with it once incredibly. Interesting, thanks for the recommendation!
