Omg, it’s an inside-joke at our company now.

Anytime something happens on a server that’s been running great for years, like a hard drive going bad or the time one literally caught on fire…

98% of the time it is selinux that is the reason it is doing weird things after the main fix because selinux changed a setting on the reboot.

“Have you checked selinux?” is the go to question whenever anything breaks now, even if it’s not a computer.

I have an S7 (yes I know it’s old) I still like it and it works - but - something happens about once or twice a month and it starts hanging up whenever a phone call connects and/or an app will get super laggy.

Anyway, reboot fixes it (so far) and nothing else I’ve tried does.

There’s definitely something with these older phones that is like a slow leak and the simple, easy, lasts for weeks fix is to just take 2 minutes for a full “turn it off and back on again”

Plus the overheating when something gets stuck doing a background thing. Reboot reboot.

I plan to use this phone until it dies, reboot stops fixing things, or needed apps are no longer working/supported.

Slack no longer works/supported, but that one I’m just like “oh, noooo” However I expect ones I actually need to start falling off and I’ll be lucky to get a couple more years of use.

My meandering point, some of us are still using Android phones where reboot helps a lot

Unfortunately, multiple lawyers said there are no legal consequences, so next election is all there is.

Her mother, Pat, has been easily re-elected (Dem) for years. Pat supported the decision made by her daughter. Pat normally wins easily. She came in 4th in the primary.

Ha, one should always be aware of the risks.

But also, VLC crashes a lot for me lately, so was hoping this was a joke that the next version would be more stable and the kinks would be worked out.

Ugh, saw the headline and knew it was my state. Our current Dem Gov is term limited. This Robinson asshat is so very embarrassing and scary like a drunk bear with brain damage.

NC is so gerrymandered we are painted red, but I think Gov is based on popular vote so there is still some hope for Stein for next Gov and Jackson for next AG.

Also, Cotham can suck it for getting voted in as a Democrat then switching parties within months in a very very blue district. She ran on protecting abortion rights then voted to ban it after joining the Republican party.

We are potentially very very up a nasty creek without paddles here, even in the blue places.

At least the base looks flaired

They generally have a lot of animal supplies, for pets, farm animals, and wildlife. Food, medicines, etc. Lemmy folks seem to really like animals.

I thought the tolerance overdoses were mainly from stopping for an extended time then starting again without realizing the tolerance is significantly lower after the detox?

My husband isn’t on Lemmy, lol. I was just pointing out that my house has a similar light dynamic as this guy’s. And that sometimes it’s the wife with the light sensitivity. And yes, I know I’m weird for it compared to other people. :)

I love barred owls, we have them in our neighborhood and can hear them at night. We’ve also had the experience of finding one closer than expected, and it is magical.

I’m the wife and I’m like you. I will stand in the dark and wait for my eyes to adjust rather than turn on a light.

We have fairy lights and red LED string lights for the high traffic areas to dissuade hubby from flipping on the overhead.

Low light motion sensor nightlights for a couple spots so that we don’t step on a cat on the way to the bathroom.

The kitchen lights are dimmable, so we can go bright when needed to cook, and dim if just searching for a snack.

I love it. He has given in and adjusted. I find it calm and cozy.

Love this! Did you start out on the Fediverse or did you start on another and then move to your own?

I ask because I’ve been considering hosting my own for the family. I already have a server.

The thing holding me back is I’ve gotten my Mastodon and Lemmy accounts really nice with content and it’s daunting to think of moving/remaking accounts.

In my city/county, you get a free card if you can prove you live here (show something with your address) Our system will also do fundraisers to supplement the budget from taxes. We almost lost some libraries a gew years ago, but voters remade the local government and they are safer now.

She is an incredibly prolific songwriter for other people as well. There’s a decent chance you like a song she wrote that is performed by someone else - if that makes you feel any better about your sacrilege (smiley face emoji)

I heard her tell a story about how she entered a Dolly Parton drag competition on a whim. She was delighted that she lost!

As I was reading, I had to check that this wasn’t The Onion writers, the tone is so spot on.

Is this from a satire site I don’t know about?

I was thinking that! When I was a kid I had a mole on my neck that looked similar in size and color to a tick. At least once a year someone would try to “catch it”

Luckily more often it was serious looks and warning there was a tick on me.

In fairness, I was in the woods a lot and had to check for ticks on the regular.

But yeah, my grandma for sure would have whacked me upside the head if she saw that spider earring.

What kind of chair is this, if you don’t mind?
