I’m surprisingly level-headed for being a walking knot of anxiety.
Ask me anything.
I also develop Tesseract UI for Lemmy/Sublinks

Way ahead of you. Stocked up on N95s and toilet paper mid-November. Have been stocking extra dog food and non-perishables in my pantry since then as well.
Oh, we can do that too, at least to varying degrees. Depends on the bank and what services they offer.
My bank will at least do what’s called “Bill Pay”. It’s (mostly) the equivalent of me telling the bank to write and mail a check to a company on my behalf. I don’t currently have that setup, but it is something I’m looking into. It’s been available for a long time, but years and years ago when I looked into it, only certain companies/utilities were supported by my bank.
It’s not like they are a secret.
They’re also not public info, either. Typically they’re combined with name, address, etc for fraud protection, but those details are even easier to acquire than account numbers. The routing numbers are public information, though. In the result of a data breach, a bad actor has everything they need.
What are any potential hackers going to to with my bank account numbers?
Just about anything they want since they’ll likely have your personal details too. When adding a bank account to any of my utility payment accounts, there is no verification whatsoever; enter details, authorize payment.
I don’t use CashApp and the like, but in the past, PayPal would deposit a few cents into the account, and you had to verify ownership of the account by entering those random amounts into the signup form to complete the process. That’s also trivially defeated if enough of your data was breached and in the hands of an attacker (e.g. call the bank, pretend to be you, and ask for the info).
Not to mention, why would attackers in phishing/scam emails ask for bank details if they’re not secret or are useless?
Yeah, I’ve been meaning to look into that. Especially so I can start unlinking my bank details from sites that will eventually expose them in a breach.
That maximizes my costs as well (plus hassle). I don’t even own a checkbook.
Gotta do what you gotta do 🤷♂️
I think fry.gs is the main mod’s own instance.
Though best practice, as much as it exists in the Fediverse, would be to host the community assets from the home instance of the community.
Please upload the icon/baner to LW instead of from a 3rd party instance. This is the second recent time these have broken.

Several years back, I set my phone’s language to UK English so the voice assistant would be British, and my flashlight button changed to “Torch”.
To my knowledge (as of 0.19.3 anyway), yes. Except for any images, naturally, though possibly the post thumbnail could have a local copy.
Is it still possible to interact with the communities (post, vote, etc.)?
Yes, but only locally.
If your instance already knows about the community, people on your instance can still post and interact with the community. However, anything submitted to it will not federate to other instances, so it’s analogous to a local-only community.
Unless the LW admins removed them already, there were some Beehaw communities that were still showing activity on Lemmy World from local LW users despite Beehaw not federating with LW. (Those communities were resolved prior to Beehaw defederating). The one I recall seeing no longer comes up, so they probably did remove them (admins were aware).
is it still possible to delete them if the ownership of the community (aka the top mod) belongs to an user from another instance
I don’t think so, at least not in 0.19.3. There are some operations that, if using a remote mod account (even if it’s top mod), throw a “not a moderator” error.
The DNC could have run an iguana wearing an offensive trucker hat, and we still should have voted for the iguana when Trump was the alternative or stood a chance of winning again.
It’s up to the voters to make smart choices, and some of them made the stupid choice.
Loops doesn’t currently have a web UI except for viewing individually-linked videos. To browse, you have to use their app.
I believe a proper web interface is on the roadmap though.
You clearly have no idea how US elections work at that level. The single candidate with the most votes wins. “Not Trump” was not a candidate.
If Trump gets 49% of the vote, Harris 48%, and “other” gets 3%, that’s not counted as 51% against Trump and he loses. That’s Trump winning with 49% of the vote.
Anyone who didn’t vote (or didn’t vote for the only candidate likely to defeat Trump) is responsible for his win.
Fair enough.
To provide an actual answer, just go to the wire services (AP, Reuters) and you’ll get reliable news that cover like 80% or more of what’s happening. Pretty much every news org is padded with wire service stories anyway. Most of what’s left to fill in is just local stuff; for those, check out local news stations / local NPR site for quality coverage.
And if they’re US based, cross reference them with Media Bias Fact Check to make sure it’s a quality source (e.g. not owned by Sinclair)
Aside from vetting local sources, that’s like 3 sites tops for about 90+% coverage.
I’m just going by the transcript (at work, can’t watch the actual video), but it seems to be heavily defending getting news from social media. That’s like…part of why everything is going bonkers.
Please tell me this is parody.
I just realized yesterday there’s a beta Linux version. It’s nowhere near as polished as the Android one, but it does seem to work. Hopefully that gets some love.
