If you haven’t already visited you definitely should! I never had the chance to live there but did spend a couple of weeks visiting and it was awesome. Reykjavik, driving the ring road, all those cliffs, waterfalls, national parks, it’s all great. That was before this Lemmy bar existed otherwise I would’ve visited that too.
I’ve too wondered how feasible it would be to relocate and/or retire to Iceland but that seems pretty far off from reality.
That has never crossed my mind, I’m thinking heavy metal when I think about Lemmy Kilmister / Lemmy.
But I do think lemmings are cute, and that old video game was awesome, so it all sort of works for me :D
Before or after the MAGA movement called Puerto Rico a floating island of garbage? Just saying, it really does take a lot for the hardcore MAGA types to actually change their minds on this stuff.
If you weren’t already prepared (see other comments) then assume every credit/debit card you had saved in your Google Wallet/Apple Pay has been stolen - That’s one reason people snatch phones while unlocked and try to keep it unlocked.
Also assume any payment apps you have installed are now compromised e.g. Venmo and similar - that’s another reason people steal unlocked phones and try to keep it unlocked.
The above assumes you did not have any additional passwords/locking in the apps themselves beyond the phone’s screen unlock - I purposely
You may be able to remote lock the phone after the fact if you get to a computer or a someone you know with a phone on them to get online and initiate a remote lock.
Maybe the pawn was given a meal made of human meat causing his mood to drop enough to lead to a mental break / fire starting spree?
Eventually got over that and is now hiding in his burning room because his clothes are tattered, poor guy :P
Think you would likely have to scour garage sales and used buy/sell sites for one of those ancient portable mp3 player devices. I remember the old iRiver devices did support FLAC natively but that was before 128GB storage existed so no idea how something like that would behave when you stick in a 128+ GB SD card into it.
The other tricky part is that something that old/used may have a worn out battery so any device with a built-in battery may not stay on for very long.
The other comment makes a good point, starting out you should focus on anything that https://www.rockbox.org/ supports since that’ll give you FLAC support. (besides the Archos, apparently it is impossible to play FLAC on those https://www.rockbox.org/wiki/WhyRockbox.html).
Have you ruled out the Google Pixel USB-C earbuds? Those work well for me and the design is nice and simple. I’ll probably keep using them until they break one day (like you also have mixed feelings about bluetooth).
Remember seeing that Google was going to phase them out eventually but they still seem to sell them at least for now.
Should be okay as long as you didn’t give the instance any of your other information (e.g. email during signup, etc.) and the Lemmy instance itself allows logins via Tor. You may also want to avoid instances using Cloudflare, it often blocks Tor connections so loading pages can be hit-or-miss.
Just saying it’s okay for basic privacy, you’d likely need a different solution if you’re actually being targeted by governments/organizations/etc with access to your ISPs and ability to backdoor your equipment.
OTOH if you’re already on a VPN I don’t think you need to go through the trouble of adding Tor to that mix.
(I’m on Tor right now)
What if I logged into my Lemmy account outside of Tor without a VPN one single time?
Strictly speaking that means your Lemmy account is now compromised, time to go create a new one over VPN or Tor or however you prefer to browse.
Left my apartment window open once when going out, came back that night to find a pigeon just sort of wandering around. It clearly had no idea how to get back outside.
Took me a bit to corner it and catch it but I did manage to get it back out the window.
Certainly changes that scene in Deathly Hallows
“No, you should do it.”
“Me?’ said Ron, looking shocked. ‘Why?”
“Because you got the sword out of the pool. I think it’s supposed to be you.”
Could probably launch my own line of bagel chips (or bagel crisps), I’d never need to buy the main ingredient.
If you’re self hosting services on your own network it’s often easier to use a domain rather than have to keep up with home IP address changes. Same if you need to set up some sort of remote access into your network.
Also useful for email, you’ll have infinite amount of email addresses you can use on your own domain. Plus if you ever need to migrate to another email provider you simply point your domain to your new email provider, you never lose your email address this way.
There is also social media that you can use your own domain to show you own your account. e.g. seems to be common at Bluesky.
Tends to be around 4 per week, I’m just one person and eggs are usually a weekend breakfast thing for me.
But… I also try to budget meals to be close to $1, so I might just stop buying eggs if a dozen get to $6+ (around me they have been in the $5-$8 range for now)
Bra gun too, there was the woman that shot herself in the head while adjusting a gun in her bra
