Sometimes when I have issues on a VPN, I'll try connecting to a different server, usually in a different region. That often helps.

While I don't necessarily think that votes should be made public, it would be nice if you could see your own votes. There have been a few times I wanted to find a post that I had seen, but didn't save, and I couldn't find it.

 

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!

Antigua, Guatemala

Buenos Aires, Argentina

Cali, Colombia

Chicago, USA

Medellin, Colombia

Merida, Mexico

Mexico City, Mexico

New Orleans, USA

New York City, USA

Oaxaca, Mexico

Quito, Ecuador

Rosario, Argentina

I've been on a sci-fi kick recently and started reading more. I'll add this to the list! Thanks!

It still sort of makes sense, as others mentioned for working with non-federation entities. But the money-less thing makes more sense to me if you have replicators. The only "cost" there is the material you use for the replicator. So even if you had a money society, things --should-- be dirt cheap since most even outside the federation should have a replicator.

In some ways, I think it'd be harder to have a money and market system when replicators exist.

Ah, Louisiana, first you charge people $800 energy bills then you complain that you can't make it more efficient. Capitalism is doing great.

What is something that is both harder and easier than you thought about the evacuation and your new life in Georgia? And do you guys think you'll stay, possibly move back, or move on to another country? And why?

And thank you for doing an AMA!

Article really uses language to make it sound like this is a bad thing

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

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.
