Are we underestimating global warming?
  • I think it’s more likely that they understand climate change much better than the average Joe. They just know it won’t affect them as much and as soon as it will the average Joe.

  • Yeh, I know. This is as much of a reality check for me as it is for you.

    I need to constantly remind myself that other people struggle too, they might just not show it.

    It’s ok to have those feelings and to have that barrier. But peek over it from time to time, maybe there’s someone there peeking over theirs.

  • I feel you with everything you wrote. My theoretical take on “I’d feel bad for anyone I’d let close..” is that

    1. You might a better person than many, because many people do not think about the impact of their actions on others
    2. Everyone is doing things for themselves. Just be honest with them and yourself and try not to hurt anyone in the process as best as you can.
    3. It’s a very nice rationalization for not having to try at all. It’s easier to just mope by yourself :D

    What to do with all of this? Who knows… The struggle is real.

  • (F)OSS 2D floor planner
  • Are you referring to the measurement objects I mentioned in the draw.io portion?

    It’s extra work that I find unnecessary if the walls already are set to the correct dimensions. I would like to be able to just turn on/off the visibility. And also not have to edit 2 objects for the same measurement if anything changes.

  • (F)OSS 2D floor planner

    I’m just looking for a simple 2D floor planner that is easy to use and has the ability to show measurements.

    The two most recommended open source tools I’ve seen have shortcomings.

    Sweet Home 3D:

    • Very 3D centric, which over complicates things.
    • Project was recently acquired/handed off to a company and the iOS version is published by “AI Photo Editor Lab SRL”

    draw.io / diagrams.net:

    • Very finicky to set up and create floor plans
    • To display measurements one has to add measurement objects to every wall/object

    Does anyone have other recommendations?

    Youtube has fully blocked Invidious
  • I guess I forgot things like Patreon which could be a valid option. Although I’m neither a fan of subscribing to specific creators nor am I particularly fond of Patreon.

    With Nebula my perception is that I pay a monthly fee and they can figure out who gets what depending on whose videos I watched. I don’t need to be particular in my action on who to support.

  • Element X, Call and Server Suite are production ready
  • Strange. I could only find vector settings in the regular Element app. And even stranger, it prompts me with “Accept Identity Server Terms” but if I tap on the identity server option it says “You are currently using vector…”. I also cannot disconnect unless I accept the terms. I really wish all of this was more clear.

  • Who is your favorite artist and what song/album would you recommend?
  • I do have a lot of favorites from over the years but I still find new bands/albums I fall in love with. So instead of recommending any old favorites I will give you my album of the year (thus far) from a band I didn’t really enjoy before.

    Caligula‘s Horse - Charcoal Grace

    Absolutely fantastic album and I would strongly recommend listening to it from start to finish.

  • After charger, Apple removes USB-C cable from the box
  • Seriously, since Apple stopped including a wall brick I have not had a single-port power adapter in my household. All I have now are a few power adapters with multiple USB A and C outputs so I can charge whatever is needed.

  • Proton CEO comments about proton drive client for linux
  • Not sure what’s the chicken and what’s the egg here but maybe they didn’t know how much work would have to be done and thus how much money it would cost.

    But it’s all just speculation and neither am I trying to defend them nor do I have a use case for this particular feature. I just wanted to interject a different possible scenario.

  • Scientist who gene-edited babies is back in lab and ‘proud’ of past work despite jailing
  • I responded to what you wrote, not what’s in the article.

    The children are healthy so far and his admirable intentions don't mitigate the fact that he's experimenting on humans. Even if he is successful (and I hope for the sake of the children he was), it's still unethical to try.

    I highlighted the important parts, the ones I’m disputing. I’m not defending him or his methods, I’m calling you out on your (maybe unintentionally) generalized conclusion.

  • Scientist who gene-edited babies is back in lab and ‘proud’ of past work despite jailing
  • Wtf are you on about. Every modern medicine is tested on animals AND humans. If you want to take the moral high ground please refrain from ever getting vaccinated, being treated with antibiotics and taking pain killers.

    Your metaphor is no good either. Maybe it could be salvaged if puppies regularly and naturally caught fire but I can’t be bothered to fix it for you.

  • A resource to get notified when certain open source projects change in a negative way?

    I’m looking for a way to keep an eye on open source software I’m using, especially if there are detrimental changes. Like for example when there’s an acquisition (Raivo Authenticator) or the project has not been updated in a long time (potentially posing a security risk).

    But I don’t want to have to read about every project, just the ones I’m using.

    Anyone got any ideas?

    Dedicated Authenticators from Password Manager vendors

    Does anyone know why there are no dedicated Authenticator apps made by for example Proton or Bitwarden?

    I’m aware that they have TOTP baked into their password managers but you still need to have at least one separate solution to log into your vault.

    Split Screen iPad app for Lemmy

    Is there a Lemmy app for iPad that has split screen like Narwhal for Reddit had? Post list on the left, content/comments on the right side.
