I mean they’re just resellers of the big guys’ network. I think Mint is a reseller of T-Mobile. Verizon has its own branded reseller labels. It all goes through the big guys’ network anyways so could they even claim that?

This is what I use on my Raspberry Pi. It’s a USB dongle.

Haha I’m not stupid I know the IRS doesn’t accept gift cards.

The Microsoft tech support guys have been very helpful with my Linux laptop though, and I feel that I can trust them.

I appreciate this rule 🙌

I mean I’ve definitely seen signs at checkout lines at grocery stores. I’ve also been asked when buying large amounts of gift cards what my reason for buying them was (in a very kind way, I would add).

LAGER would give the same information but also have a shot at being correct

LARGE was an absolutely terrible guess if you already know that R can’t be in the third spot

Interestingly, this coating can cause issues for some products like the Apple AirTags. I know this because I used one of these batteries with a bitterest in the AirTag on my keys and the AirTag didn’t work.

Funny, I actually started out with them disabled but I re-enabled them in the past year since I’m terrible at mistyping.

I wish there were a way for only the app to know which sites you’ve visited previously so it could do a better job of helping my typos without exposing that data to websites you visit.

Edit: oh I also wish you could have the address bar on the bottom :/

I forgot to mention a fringe benefit of Firefox Focus: I feel like it forces me to do a better job of not just opening a webpage and telling myself I’ll read it later (I never do). Since the session is ephemeral and the webpage will be gone if I don’t read it right away, I actually get down to reading the articles more often.

This may also be a side effect of Lemmy, though, since there’s less content here than on reddit.

 

When sharing a post, the app defaults to using the URL from the home instance of the poster. I’d prefer to share the link as it exists from my home instance.

 

Other relevant quote from the article:

The scented water is part of the new Baby Dior skincare collection, which also includes a $115 moisturizer for babies and a $95 cleansing foam.

 

With the state of Amazon currently, I can’t tell what is good and what is crap on there anymore. So I wanted to ask you fine people if you had any recommendations on cappuccino mugs. Not super worried about cost, but also don’t want to break the bank for some mugs.

Any recommendations / thoughts appreciated!

 

Hello!

I recently got a new espresso machine (a Breville Barista Express if that helps at all), and I have no idea how to get started picking espresso beans. I think I’d like a milder, darker roast for either lattes / cappuccinos but also good for drinking straight.

Where do I even go about finding a good bag of beans? Are there any recommended sites? Do you just go to your grocery store?

Any other advice for a brand-new first timer?

Any help is greatly appreciated!
