Knocked Strom Thurmond’s racist ass filibuster of the civil rights act out of the #1 slot.

I’d point out this is a temporary pacemaker, not a permanent PPM or ICD. You get these as an inpatient in the hospital when you’re recovering from some pretty intense cardiac procedures. One of the advantages they point out is not having any electrodes to remove in this new device. With temporary transvenous pacemakers, they don’t implant an electrode in the heart, the wire is just chilling there in the bloodstream in your heart.

Not saying it’s not a cool development but it’s going to need a lot of testing and validation before it’s accepted in practice.

Note: I’m not a cardiologist, but I work with them doing EMR stuff and have to know a bit about cardiology.

Yeah, might be switching to Jellyfin eventually, but I want to milk my lifetime plex pass for a bit longer. The enshittification hasn’t reached terminal levels for me yet. I’d have to talk all my non-nerd friends through setting Jellyfin up as well, so there’s a significant effort barrier to switching there.

Plexamp is fantastic. Sweetfades and radio/mix features, which can also include songs from shared libraries, are dope as hell. One of my favorite audio players of all time. Bridges the gap between old school local library playback and modern algorithm stuff really well.

If you really want to see this type of content you can easily find it with the tiniest amount of motivation.

Nowhere in the article does it say anything like that. It’s pretty straight forward reporting - the guy ran some websites and distributed pirated books and software, and hacked a few websites. No judgements are passed, it’s just factual information.

Yes I did, multiple times. The only confrontation I see are people on other floors reporting you for snooping around.

Does the noise maker below you ever confront you directly? Have they said anything to your face regarding the noise?

To me it sounds like you may be assigning motives to things that aren't as evil as you perceive. Just live your life and be a normal, respectful level of loud. You're going to hear your neighbors in an apartment. Accept it and move on. Unless it's past quiet hours and affecting your sleep I don't think there's much you can do, practically.

Are they confronting you in person or something? Have they said anything to you or do you just hear noises?

It might be 1000% more confidential, but is it effective? Anecdotal evidence doesn't count. For all we know AI therapy could be actively harmful to certain conditions. I'm not sure there's any published studies on this.

Flightradar24 had a notification that the Concorde was flying again, first thing I saw this morning and I completely fell for it.

Buying computer parts is one of those areas when buying high end is usually cheaper in the long run. My 5800X3D / 3090 build is still extremely relevant despite being two generations behind the latest hardware. I have no desire to upgrade and I’ll probably be able to push it for another 2-4 years easily.

Never bought a Windows license though, and I’ve been building PCs since 1998.

Is it possible to transfer favorite communities from an account on one server to another? Say for example I'd like to have an alt with the same favorites on another server for a backup. Is this possible with wefwef or other means?

Looking to get my main off lemmy.world to help load balance, but I don't want to refavorite everything; if I could somehow keep them in sync that would be ideal.
