‘They will vote against Harris’: Arab Americans in Michigan desert Democrats over Gaza
  • So the two realistic options are Trump and Harris. You do realize Netanyahu wants Trump to win, correct? You do realize Trump isn't going to do a damn thing except attempt to install himself as God Emperor of the US if he's elected while utterly ignoring all outside politics, yes? So by not voting for Kamala, that's what you're signalling you're ok with.

    Harris has at least signaled she is willing to consider forcing Isreal to some sort of negotiation table. Although neither side is going to say anything particularly inflammatory ahead of the election because… AIPAC, who has literally thrown millions at any candidate that has spoken out against them pre-election.

  • Thanks for that!

  • Who the fuck said I don't believe there's a genocide going on?

  • How ham radio endures - and remains a disaster lifeline - in the iPhone era
  • Cool! Since I do the occasional mountain bike ride or hike into places with zero cell service, it's a huge plus for me to have satellite communication capabilities on the phone. Interesting they're working it the other way too for disaster areas.

  • ‘They will vote against Harris’: Arab Americans in Michigan desert Democrats over Gaza
  • Because Trump is so likely to be a better choice for solving the Israel-Gaza crisis, lol.

  • How ham radio endures - and remains a disaster lifeline - in the iPhone era
  • If you have an iPhone 14 on and iOS 18 you can now text via satellite during an outage too. People in NC were raving about how great it was to be able to check in with loved ones and get help.

  • What's your least favorite thing about cycling?
  • Head wind is definitely number one for me too. EDIT: OK actually it would be snow or rain, but those really aren't issue where I live (AZ desert).

  • why is thepiratebay discouraged?
  • I have literally never downloaded pirated software since OS 9 went away and OS X became a thing. Open up your task manager and look at how many processes there are (Window, Mac or Linux) and ask yourself if you're going to notice the one extra process that is out of place.

    As for files with extra extensions, this is why you should always set Explorer/Finder/whatever to show all file extensions the very first thing, regardless of what OS you're running too.

  • This little gadget to find out which type of USB-C cable you have
  • Interesting. Luckily I only needed it to power my docking station so I can plug in power, ethernet, USB and monitor with one plug so not an issue for me luckily.

  • This little gadget to find out which type of USB-C cable you have
  • Yeah, the whole experience of going from lightning cables and mini display port and such has been less than overwhelming. I eventually had to buy a USB C from the Apple Store to get one that actually did 100W power instead of just lying about it on the box.

    'That '90s Show' Canceled on Netflix After 2 Seasons
  • Season 1 wasn't terrible. Season 2 absolutely was.

  • Ellen DeGeneres' Unfunny Netflix Special Leaves So Much Unsaid
  • I laughed out loud multiple times watching this "unfunny" comedy special? It really felt like the Times had a hell of an axe to grind with her.

    Mind you, I've never watched the Ellen Show even once in my life, so pretty much her standup is the only interaction I've ever had with her.

  • how's y'alls experience been lol
  • The Blender Guru doughnut tutorial is the winning starting tutorial IMHO.

    EDIT: The one Ludrol linked to elsewhere in the comments.

  • PlayStation product manager says ads being shown was just a bug
  • The community backlash is the bug as far as Sony is concerned. They're trying to work around it now…

  • Cycle helmet safety ranked by new Imperial research | Imperial News | Imperial College London
  • Alas I returned one of those top-rated Special Ed helmets because that visor is fixed in place and therefore practically useless at sunset. Very curious to see how the POC helmets rate when they get to them!

  • Remember to rig the vote, folks! /s

    (And remember, whenever they rage about anything insane like Harris rigging the vote, it's always projection.)

  • Firefox 130.0.1 Release Notes
  • All I want is the ability to use the freaking emojis panel on macOS. This bug was identified over a year ago and they haven't fixed it yet, because I think they're secretly hoping Apple will just magically fix it for them.

  • cAPS LOCK (shift edition)
  • Yeah but the OS controls what it does with the signal.

    On macOS if CapsLock is down hitting Shift does nothing. Not sure what happens on Linux; I thought I remembered it also not lower casing text with CapsLock and Shift both active but I could be wrong.

    www.abc15.com Newly obtained video shows driver after deadly Goodyear cycling crash

    For several seconds in the video, he turns the camera around to show the scene on the bridge where you can see multiple people and bicycles lying on the roadway. “Babe, I killed somebody, babe.”

    … and he calls some random people after he mows down the cyclists, but not 911? How is he only facing misdemeanor charges?!?

    ProTip: If you enabled resistFingerprinting, you have to manually allow HTML5 canvas usage per website

    mastodon.social heavyboots (@[email protected])

    Attached: 2 images Since I’m the idiot learning this by filing bug reports, I thought I’d pass it on to all other #FireFox users on here. If you enable resistFingerprinting in about:config, the web site will start showing you weird stripy graphics anywhere an HTML5 canvas graphic would be generated...

    heavyboots (@heavyboots@mastodon.social)

    My apologies to the Bugzilla team for wasting their time holding my hand on this one. Would have honestly never noticed the little "HTML5" info icon to the left of the URL bar though without their help.

    Best of 2023?

    For me, best of 2023 was Red Team Blues by Cory Doctorow. A retirement-age forensic accountant traveling around in an ex-rock star bus from Walmart parking lot to next gourmet dining location does a job for a billionaire and suddenly ends up in a surprising amount of hot water over it. Hijinks ensue.

    Runner-up goes to Venomous Lumpsucker by Ned Beauman. This is some bleak, bleak humor. Instead of carbon credits, Beauman posits extinction credits. Got a big strip mining operation coming up that will kill off a couple species? Better buy some extinction credits to cover their death! (And remember, it takes more credits to cover for a dead intelligent species, so factor that in!) Next extinction candidate: the Venomous Lumpsucker, but don't make it extinct until you've got all your paperwork done. Researcher and extinction credit manager for a mining company end up in a desperate chase around the planet trying to ascertain if the last of the Lumpsuckers are truly gone or not, and we go along for the ride.

    Previous button missing in 0.19?

    Anyone have an idea why the Previous button would be missing from all pages? I can click Next and it seems to navigate me forward, but there is not Previous button to go back a page. Checked lemmy.world just to verify it wasn't my imagination and indeed the Previous button is still there.

    Things I've tried so far that haven't worked:

    • Disable uBlock Origin, Privacy Badger and TamperMonkey for lemmy.ml
    • Load website in default Safari and Edge
    • Try a few different themes to make sure it wasn't something with the theme I was using
