Yes! I also have the rice cooker. Probably the two most used kitchen gadgets I have!

Zojirushi bread makers are amazing

Haters of lemmy who actively hate on specific people in your personal life, why? in c/[email protected]

Woah! This guy does suck. But, why won’t your wife very reasonably tell him “no”? He’d throw a fit, but he’s asking an awful lot and giving nothing. You two will have to work more to support him… and that’s not fair. Is he going to be there for the next four years?! Does he pay some rent, utilities, and cover food? Does he have household responsibilities?

For all that is good, you need to convince your wife that this is a terrible idea.

One thing to note about living in your car… not having an address shows up an awful lot. You even need one to register your car usually. I was living on the road for awhile and used a mailing service for most things combined with a family members address as my official address.

Sideloaded app stores are coming to iOS in the EU in c/[email protected]

Only the cellular iPads have the eSIM. The standard WiFi ones do not. Since iOS covers both of these devices, older models, and folks who choose not to have a carrier despite having the ability to do so, I don’t believe this would be a partial solution at best.

Interesting thought! This wouldn’t work for iPads and iPhones with no sim (but use WiFi) though

I’m really interested to see how they’re going to region lock this. Will it be where the device was sold? Does that comply with EU regulations? Will it be geographical location? If I move to the US, will it lock the side loaded apps? If I grab a VPN can I side load things?

Meta Joins Google In Turning Its Back On The Open Web, And Embracing Unconstitutional Mandates That Pretend To ‘Protect The Children’ in c/[email protected]

As a former teacher, advisor to a state attorney general, and now an executive at Meta — I’ve dedicated my career to protecting children online.

That’s an awfully strange pathway to executive at Meta.

AI scam calls imitating familiar voices are a growing problem – here's how they work in c/[email protected]

I always thought being able to recognize voices is a common skill? Is it not?
