These are incredible for hiking, hunting, etc
One alone won't be able to do much but if you need to connect a few people in a rural area it's amazing.
My only hope is that waterproof models become more available
If OP is attempting a 3-2-1 Backup scheme, this is an irrelevant argument.
OP wants to store a backup in a different physical location while trusting that it won't be used to train AI. They are looking for services that can satisfy that.
Blue light has a documented effect on our circadian rhythm and melatonin production. It's been studied quite a bit. I'm sure mental overstimulation is a component, but it absolutely is not the whole story.
In Western society, there is a big focus on silver bullet solutions because people don't want to address issues in a holistic way. Thus, you have blue light filters instead of turning the screen off.
Of course a 6" screen doesn't produce as much as a ball of nuclear fire
But that ball of fire isn't 12 inches from your face at midnight. And, the majority of blue light filter use is targeting sleep quality. A good portion of this comes down to cumulative exposure time. The best solution is to just not look at screens after a certain hour, but no one wants to do that.
I finished my Tunic! It's a very light rayon linen blend that feels like barely wearing a shirt at all. It will be a welcome addition as well endure this unforgiving heat. Pattern is "Men's Tunic" from Wardrobe By Me #sewing (This is a repost because I'm a dumdum who didn't include #sewing in the...
I finished my tunic over the weekend!
The pattern is Men's Tunic from Wardrobe By Me. The fabric is an extremely thin linen rayon blend my local fabric store called Blueberry Dreams. The fabric weight is surrealistically thin, and the drape is extremely fluid.
I've legitimately never had a shirt that felt this luxurious. It should be a welcome addition in the broiling weather.
I play disc golf.
Sometimes finding my disc is a safari
The answer to your question is yes
Like many, when the recent defederation went down, I decided to create a couple other logins and see what the wider fediverse has had to say about it.
I've been, honestly, a bit surprised by the response. A huge portion of people seem to be misidentifying communities as belonging to "lemmy" as opposed to the instances that host them. I think a big portion of this seems to be a fundamental misunderstanding of what this software is, and how it works.
For example, lemmy.world users are pissed at being de-federated because it excludes them from Beehaw communities. This outrage seems wholly placed in the concept that Beehaw's communities are "owned" by the wider fediverse. This is blatantly not how lemmy works. Each instance hosts a copy of federated instances' content for their users to peruse. The host (Beehaw in this example) remains being the source of truth for these communities. As the source of truth, Beehaw "owns" the affected communities, and it seems people have not realized that.
This also has wider implications for why one might want to de-federate with a wider array of instances. Lets say I have a server in a location that legally prohibits a certain type of pornography. If my users subscribe to other instances/communities that allow that illegal pornography, I (the server admin) may find myself in legal jeopardy because my instance now holds a copy of that content for my users.
Please keep this in mind as you enjoy your time using Lemmy. The decisions that you make affect the wider instance. As you travel the fediverse, please do so with the understanding that your interactions reflect this instance. More than anything, how can we spread this knowledge to a wider audience? How can we make the fediverse and how it works less confusing to people who aren't going to read technical documentation?
We felt like eating vegetarian tonight, so I modified a chicken korma recipe for tofu.
Pretty happy with how it turned out
