I work full time at a computer. I have two jobs, so I put in 68 hours a week (second is 28 hours a week, no overlap).

I have no issues with eye fatigue best I can tell, that or I've just gotten so used to it. I will note I do have the blue light filter on my glasses lenses my optician recommended.

Considering the little girl brought it in, it's definitely more plausible she wouldn't notice the magnet. And considering the amount of parents who give hamsters as pets and never take any responsibility over it themselves, even more so.

But I'd also assume, with no real insight into the behavior of hamsters, that one in this situation would wind up either tearing it's cheek off (depending on the strength of the magnet) or figuring out it can dislodge / move enough to free it.

When I got into the space I had to find a private tracker, but since then I've had no issues with Readarr aside from some series being slow to get their metadata updated, but that's not a Readarr issue.

I find no discouragement of strategy in the game. Higher numbers don't always win, unless they're sufficiently high enough. I can design a fleet with weapon and armor/shield focuses to counter theirs, as well as choosing the engagement style (via the combat computer modes in the ship designer) to counter theirs.

If I don't want to strategize I can simply wait longer for a bigger fleet and newer tech, but if I want to take on enemies larger than me, especially early game, I have to take the time to strategize.

If I'm using Bluetooth earbuds I can receive a call from Signal or WhatsApp. So it stands to reason it's possible a Bluetooth device exists to act like earbuds but for a landline phone. I found a few (cell2jack and XLink BT HD) but could not verify if they'd work for anything other than normal phone calls.

There's the book: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/23282027-750-years-in-paris

Not sure if it qualifies, but might help with finding.

He got scammed again? Damn. Sorry, I was referring this one. And not really the details of the scam, but it was the wrong place / wrong time element that reminded me.

Edit: the article you linked is older, so I guess not "again".

Yup, what you're describing sounds inline with how Corey Doctorow fell victim to fraud.

I'm fairly certain I annoy the people at my bank because I always insist on calling them back at their official number if they ask for any personal information. I don't fuck around with my bank security. I did however get got a couple of more years ago back when the chrome browser window phishing attack first started and had my Steam account stolen for a solid minute.

That's the attack where they simulate a browser window so what you think is a oauth popup is actually just inpage javascript and CSS.

The fundraising was for the development of Pixelfed's source code. e.g. adding new features, bug fixing, etc. - not for currently hosted servers and their infrastructure. So it went to @dansup.
