Here's January of this year. San Francisco, so pretty moderate weather


typically don't run heat during the day, and low 60s at night (if at all) during the winter. Large temperature gradient throughout house, typically.

South facing windows gives kitchen and living room a greenhouse effect, particularly in the winter, hence the large daily temperature swings:

Good point


it is "incrementally free," although I guess if you count tire wear and tear that's not even true.

Your local city college may or may not offer free classes (in San Francisco, you just need to show proof that you live in the city with some legal status).

Some public transportation is free for certain groups (youth and folks experiencing homelessness can get free passes here).

"First X of the month" at the zoo/a museum/whatever


lots of venues have free events.

A jog, bike ride, hike


lots of great stuff outside!

The bank doesn't own the house, they just have a significant lien against it. Maybe a potato potato situation (how are you supposed to spell that phrase 🤔), but it is an important distinction.

Landlords can get pissed if you paint the walls/change appliances/remodel/etc., but so long as the property is properly insured (and you make your loan payments on time) the bank probably isn't going to bother you.

Landlords can


and do


place restrictions on quiet hours, guest policy, who is allowed to live there, etc. Owning is definitely different.

We still use leaded gas for aviation, as does (I believe) the EU (I'm guessing RoW, too).

(Supposed to be banned this year in the EU but AFAICT pushed back until 2032.)

Fail2ban config can get fairly involved in my experience. I'm probably not doing it the right way, as I wrote a bunch of web server ban rules


anyone trying to access wpadmin gets banned, for instance (I don't use WordPress, and if I did, it wouldn't be accessible from my public facing reverse proxy).

I just skimmed my nginx logs and looked for anything funky and put that in a ban rule, basically.

I'm gonna try to guess the most likely LLM response to your post, trained on reddit data:

"This."

How'd I do?

Not sure if trolling or not, but googling around and it sounds like Sensory Processing Disorders can cause this level of passionate hatred towards bananas...

But this is a weird thing to lie about


the only reason to implement toner DRM is to get people to buy your cartridges. But if your public statement is, "it's ok to buy off brand cartridges," then...well... that's kinda weird.

Not saying you're wrong, and they could be trying to have their cake and eat it too (court the anti-DRM crowd but also scare people into sticking with their toner). I'm just saying your snarky/sarcastic response seems unwarranted here.

I can only remember this because I initially didn't learn about xargs


so any time I need to loop over something I tend to use for var in $(cmd) instead of cmd | xargs. It's more verbose but somewhat more flexible IMHO.

So I run loops a lot on the command line, not just in shell scripts.

Lemmy is not encrypted, my comments are public, your comments are public, we both know that. Anyone with a raspberry pi or an old netbook can scrape them.

If I use an encrypted service and all of a sudden everything that I thought was encrypted was decrypted by the service provider without my consent? That's breaking encryption.

If on the other hand I use an encrypted service and they tell me that they can no longer offer the service, my data will be destroyed after X days, and I need to find another way of storing my encrypted data because of privacy invading government policies? That is not breaking encryption.
