Proton and its services have been pretty good. Some things to know about proton mail:
- Search is only for titles, as content is encrypted
- You can do search in the body in your browser. It downloads your email into the browser and searchers locally. It takes a while to do this and build up indexes. I haven't had too much issue searching for things though.
- Since they don't read your email, no automatic calendar events if there isn't a .ics
The VPN had been great
The storage isn't enough for me to be able to move off of my main cloud provider. There also isn't a way to pin a file on Android for it - and the 500gGB of space is less than I use
The Pass app is handy and it's easy to make aliases, though it often doesn't know to fill in, doesn't do it, or something, and I need to open the app to copy paste. Pretty trivial though.
I'm sticking with them. I don't really have a reason to leave. The aliases are really nice, the catch is that it's not easy to have them go to a sub email address that I use - it has to go to your primary email. Not a huge deal though.

I recently was talking with someone in south America about things in the US, most of which they hated, then when I got to "yeah, a lot of people sell plasma to help get through school" they were like "WTF! I hate your country! Here we do it as a donation! And you do it to help get through school!?" 😂

Tl;dr - fediverse probably won't do too much, and it does have discoverability issues, along with migration issues

I was talking with a guy from china and his advice for visiting was: don't go to the touristy places and monuments. There are too many people. Do a food tour.
He also hates crowds, so take that as you will.

I know this is quite late, but I sold everything and have been fully nomadic for the past year.
I cycle between wanting to travel more and wanting to have some stability in relationships, places, etc. During those times I'll rent space for longer in a CoLive arrangement so that I still have social interactions.

I may be interested. What does being a moderator actually look like in doing it?
I wanted to share this useful gadget. It's a power cube with 3 ac slots + 2 USBA + 1USBC with surge protection, etc. It's much more compact than what I was using before and since the cable is flexible, it effectively uses less space in the bag. I overbought and went with the 10' cable, but the 6' should be fine. You may be able to find it for less on amazon. ![](https://lemm.ee/api/v3/image_proxy?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcdn.shopify.com%2Fs%2Ffiles%2F1%2F0493%2F9834%2F9974%2Fproducts%2FA9134121-Anker_524_Power_Strip_3838x.png%3Fv%3D1672495149)

One thing to know about transactions is that they track data and then write it. It's not the opening that slows it down. I have a question though, what is your source data? Do you have a big CSV for something? Can you do a db to db transfer instead? There's another tool called the BCP utility.
Edit: SQL server/ssms have tools for doing migrations and batch imports
RagingHungryPanda 1 week ago • 100%
I've done a lot of work and no, that is not normal.
A few things: First - SQL server has tools for migrating data that's pretty fast. SQL bulk copy can use some of these. Check to see if the built in db tools are better for this.
SQL bulk copy can handle way more than 15,000 records
Why are you wrapping a data dump in a transaction? That will slow things down for sure.
You generally shouldn't be doing huge queries like that to where you're nearing the parameter limit.
Can you share the code?

It looked like it was a combination with that and the chemical they washed it with. Also, for this particular product, it isn't healthy to use the sulfur treatment, it seems. The producers said something to the effect of, "we know this will cause problems for people, but the fruit is prettier and we get better prices for them".
The news company said that they tested them as well and found them to be toxic.

I'm not entirely sure of what's going on exactly as the issue, but learning a language and android at the same time can be difficult. I'm not sure if it's the kotlin or the android that's the blocker.

That depends on the use. Are you using it as a productive business for profit or just something you like, maybe even for sure side money. Are you hiring employees to work it for you? Once you make it a mode of production it's considered a privately owned means of production. If it's something you just have, it's personal property.
That's the gist anyway. These are actual, defined terms and not just things people throw around on the internet. If you want something more specific, doing a search will probably get a better explanation than I'm good at giving.

When they say "private property" they are not referring to the people's toothbrush, but the private ownership of production. Houses and such are "personal property".

“Old age” must be redefined and retirement ages raised so that living longer doesn’t mean retiring longer on workers’ taxes, particularly for wealthy retirees. After all, longer lives for most people should mean more productive years.

One of the fun parts about traveling and speaking another language: sometimes my Spanish is really good, but the past few days people haven't been able to understand me and asked me to switch to English. Maybe I got lazy, maybe my mouth is moving weird, but it happens. It comes back eventually. I hope edit: the other part about it is that it does feel embarrassing, because I'm just ordering a coffee and failed to do that. Eh, whatever.

I hope this helps some people that are traveling. These are links to Google Maps lists I made of places in different cities I've been to that I thought were interesting. You can subscribe/follow the list to add it to yours. These lists aren't complete travel guides, just places I wanted to save or was told about, sorted by name. Some of them have a lot of places, others not so much. I left off lists that only had a few places. I hope someone may find them helpful one day!

cross-posted from: https://lemm.ee/post/39289735 > NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • WALL STREET JOURNAL BESTSELLER • USA TODAY! BESTSELLER > > In this beautifully written, vividly detailed memoir, a young woman chronicles her adventures traveling across the deserts of the American West in an orange van named Bertha and reflects on an unconventional approach to life.
[Bianca Graulau](https://www.youtube.com/@BiancaGraulau) While reporting on the inequality and unequal treatment between tourists and locals in Oaxaca, Mexico, Bianca was told to not mention the hotel chain because they were affiliated with the company. In Oaxaca, there is a water shortage that has a great impact on the people there and in the surrounding area. But if you're a tourist, you may not even know. > This story was censored by a big and well-known media company. So I decided to tell it on my own. I look into the following question: does the current tourism model in Oaxaca lead to deeper inequality?
Edit: trying to figure out the spoiler tag...sorry Edit 2: I tried three ways and nothing worked, but spoilers below I've run into a lot of times where needed things don't trigger bc I'm hiding spoiler hag >! For example, when rescuing Mayrina the first time, I snuck past them and tried to talk to her, which triggered the cutscenes and hag transformation. Combat was supposed to start, but didn't. So I went into the fireplace thinking that was a good escape route and into the lair, where she, in hag form, told me I shouldn't be sneaking around and to leave, but with the normal lady's voice. Then, when rescuing from the cage, I used the druids thorn whip to yang Mayrina down. Combat triggered and she acting like she was still in the cage instead of running through the open door behind us. I tried a second time and she ran through, but disappeared. When I went back, she was outside the cage. I thought she was the hag bc she had 0 damage, so I cast blindness on her and she ran...somewhere. Also, the hag never rendered, but I could see her vision outline. Anyway, now I think I actually have to fight the hag. I read something about a water trick, so I'll try that was well. But jeez, with all the warnings to run away from a hag, I thought I'd be able to do that. Of course leaving an angry hag alive is no good, so 🤷♂️!<
This is a feature that I miss, along with attachments on calendar events. I was thinking of building something myself using NLP and NER to read an email and extract calendar details from it, but I'd need access to an API to be able to do that and the API is no longer public. Is there any way to either get access to these APIs or some other workaround for this?
Google maps doesn't always have good data for transit. Another option is the app Moovit. It's served me well in Latin America. I'm also trying out Organic Maps and OsmAnd, which are Open Maps apps, but I can't really comment on them yet. The only catch with transit directions in apps is they'll often have bus numbers, but the buses here have signs for the neighborhoods they go through or the final stop, which makes things tricky, especially since you're trying to read the sign while the bus is moving.
I noticed my battery drained really quickly since getting proton mail, but the energy use in Androids battery report would only show a few percent. I went from being able to go w whole day with plenty of battery left it having to charge once or twice a day. I turned off the background email loading and my battery levels are back to normal.
Hey there! I recently got server banned b/c I was sharing a link in men's communities and I was mistaken for a bot. I didn't have a way to respond to the ban. I was just logged out. I didn't see a link or even which mod did the ban so that I could reply to them, but then I couldn't get into my account to reply anyway. It'd be nice to maybe get a "if you think this was in error" email or something. Although I know that if lemmy was the size of reddit, people would hook that email up to chatgpt, so :/ Anyway, it'd be a nice feature to have. I doubt I'll need it again, but I was quite confused as to what to do.
From my friend: men are lonely and no one is doing anything about it, so I want to do something about it. [dudefriends.com](http://dudefriends.com/)
I've tried a few times and resorted to leaving a link. Is there a better way, alternative, or a Lemmy version of imgur or something? I mainly use the Sync app.
