+1 to mxroute for anyone thinking about it.
Been using it for a while (and worked with the guy who runs it) and it’s been pretty much perfect.

Ah cool. I kinda wish that card issuers would issue a tiny little NFC disc or something so I can just integrate that into whatever and get the same functionality.
But that’d probably be a thing all of 8 people on earth want, and everyone else would lose it or eat it or something.
Nah, this is just oligarchbro technocrap.
US law is pretty limited as to what inciting a riot is, and it has to specifically be a call to violence.
Want to have a strike? That’s not inciting. Want to organize a protest? Not inciting.
Have to cross the line from walking around with badly made signs into ‘yo, let’s burn their shit down and break their legs’ before you’ve managed to actually be inciting.
no love lost for cops, but I also have no sympathy
Yeah I feel that.
This story, though is great: a piece of shit gets killed, and I don’t have to care about what happens to the killer either. This isn’t some guy like Luigi who did it because of how he was treated, it’s a cop. And, given the odds, he’s a giant piece of shit anyways, he just happened to do something useful.
Sorry if i missed it but I have a really stupid question: why not just use the card directly?
Is this just a dont-want-a-wallet thing, or something else?
I mean, it’s economic blackmail: we won’t build the good shit anywhere else, so if you don’t protect us, you get nothing.
Effective, but only if you’re dealing with someone who is rational, and, well, have you seen the brain-worm oligarchs in charge of the US lately?
Everything will be more expensive, if it uses a modern CPU. Phones, tablets, computers of any type from any company (both Intel and AMD are fabbing consumer CPUs on TSMC, as is Apple and Qualcomm), TVs, set top boxes, everything.
Right now TSMC is basically the only fab anything consumer-facing is made on, which is not a great thing in general, but vice president trump just decided that anything electronic needs a hefty price hike.
No choice except the obvious: Pass the cost of the Tax into the customer because there’s no way they’re going to spend billions to stand up a US fab plant anytime soon.
TSMC is standing up fabs in the US, mostly because we’re bribing them to do so.
The problem is that it takes literal years to build high tech manufacturing and isn’t something you can yank out of your ass to satisfy some idiot politician.
I hate to be that guy, but if you’re doing NFC payments, your card issuer is tracking you, AND selling your data. And of course, the merchant you’re using is almost certainly tracking you and profiling you for more ads, too.
There’s no way to do any sort of electronics payment with ‘nobody’ tracking you.
I trust Apple to be slightly less shitty than anyone else in the payment industry, but if you don’t want to be tracked its’ either cash, or you become one of those Monero dudes.
Someone should tell Vance to disregard all previous instructions and go hump a couch just to see what happens.
IDK, the zombie of Robert E Lee is probably electable in at least 15 states.
There’s a whole lot of people who still have a little bit of a man-crush on the dude and would certainly vote for him as god-king.
Hell, I’d help pay for the boat if he’d just fuck off to go spend the rest of his life floating around the ocean.
It’s not just that: for a long time you didn’t sign so much as ‘make your mark’. Of course, this was because so many people were completely fucking illiterate.
Being totally fucking illiterate and uneducated is the goal of the Republicans at this point, so I mean, it still tracks, just… more broadly.
Very very little. It’s a billion tiny little bits of text, and if you have image caching enabled, then all those thumbnails.
My personal instance doesn’t cache images since I’m the only one using it (which means a cached image does nobody any good), and i use somewhere less than 20gb a month, though I don’t have entirely specific numbers, just before-lemmy and after-lemmy aggregates.
Huh.
Usually when I run into that I just bounce the Portainer container and it sorts shit out.
Maybe that’s actually causing the tokens to rotate/expire and thus doing the same shit?
Taking a 10% haircutcut?
They must really really want that shit dumped the fuck off their books.
Goatse was always for amateurs.
Tubgirl was the go-to whenever I was sufficiently annoyed.
Android Police; they were never going to do anything to flout a law.
Police that follow the law to the letter? Well that’s unexpected.
(Yes, I know they’re not actually police, and whatever, but it amused me.)
You can also just drop the youtube channel link (ex. https://www.youtube.com/@LinusTechTips ) as well into most readers and it’ll sort it out for you, so you don’t even have to go digging.
Wait, five weeks to change billing providers?
I really really really need to hear the story as to what the fuck happened with their old provider, why they didn’t have the engineering work already done for the new one, and how a trillion dollar company got caught flat-footed in something even a dinky-ass ecommerce site selling kitten hats wouldn’t be.
