Without saying who downvoted you (I can see who did because I’m an instance admin), I’m pretty sure that person is gunning for “person who downvotes the most on the fediverse”. They have a lot of hate in their soul.

My seedbox accepts crypto payments through Coinbase. Coinbase recently started requiring personal info when paying.

Ah, yeah, NYC is definitely full of shared surfaces. I recommend taking a shower before you go home, multiple times, maybe once per day. And also when you get home. (unless by “home” you mean the place you’re staying).

NYC is a great place to visit. Have fun.

Why wav, out of curiosity?

That’s a clever idea.

If you have a Harbor Freight nearby grab this https://www.harborfreight.com/150-piece-terminal-and-connector-set-67683.html and a pair of crimpers for the inside electrical connections. A pair of wire strippers and you’ll be on your way.

I’m not a lawyer, but since Lemmy instances aren’t “professional or commercial activity”, I doubt a GPDR request would be applicable.

Some people who run instances might have the ability to do some sort of database export for a specific user, but the vast majority of us are just barely technical enough to keep Lemmy running and updated.

The last time I touched our database I accidentally wiped out all data older than 1 month and had to restore a backup.

I think we do have the option to remove a user by purging them through the UI, but an export isn’t an option at this point.

There’s a difference in how active users are counted now, too, so that skews the numbers. An active user used to be a user who posted or commented. Now voting makes a user active.

It sure is pretty.

This looks like a New England forest.

DST is what most people prefer. It’s the switch back to standard time that’s dumb.

Probably one of those asshole children who’ve only been cycling for a year or two. They don’t take the sport seriously.

The politics are left of center on social issues, but I wouldn’t say it’s as bad as Reddit. I see a lot of anti-trump stuff, but that has nothing to do with his politics.

Blocking desalines using the software he helped write is very satisfying, in a sad sort of way.

Keep trying on other instances unless your views align with .ml. Otherwise you’ll be automatically deemed a tankie by a lot of people and that might alter your experience on the fediverse.

Welcome to Lemmy!

Lemmy isn’t immune to bans for people speaking their mind or promoting violence. It happens all the time.

I have a credit card that gives 6% cash back on grocery stores. Gift Cards are supposed to be excluded from that, but it still works at some stores. I used to buy Amazon gift cards, effectively making Amazon 6% cheaper.

There’s some psychological stuff to consider, though. Did I spend more on Amazon because there was a gift card balance? I like to tell myself no, but I probably did.
