TIL the original drummer of The Offspring is a gynecological oncologist who was sued for malpractice. The judge called a mistrial when he saved a juror who had a heart attack by subtext in c/til@lemmy.world

I could imagine that juror to be slightly biased toward the defendant once they had been saved by the defendant. No wonder the judge had to call a mistrial.

TL;DR

We have examined the leak sample and have determined this was NOT a breach of Steam systems.

You do not need to change your passwords or phone numbers as a result of this event. It is a good reminder to treat any account security messages that you have not explicitly requested as suspicious. We recommend regularly checking your Steam account security at any time at https://store.steampowered.com/account/authorizeddevices

These can be turned off. Not great that they’re on by default, but you gotta pay the bills somehow right?

Simplifi vs Monarch Money (lemmy.world)
submitted 2 years ago by subtext@lemmy.world to c/personalfinance@lemmy.ml

Pretty much as the title says.

The wife and I are currently using Simplifi and it works well enough, but I’ve been hearing a decent amount about Monarch Money. Just curious if anyone here has tried both and why they prefer one vs the other. Even if you haven’t tried Simplifi, if you’ve used Monarch, I’d be curious your opinions of it!

[Feature Request] Share link to post / comment using instance of choice (lemmyverse.link)
submitted 2 years ago by subtext@lemmy.world to c/voyagerapp@lemmy.world
2 comments fedilink

Hi, loving the app!

Something I hope could be added as a feature would be the ability to set an instance to use as the base for all link creation. As an example, I would like to always share Lemmy.world links when I’m sending links to posts to my friends. Currently, the share button shares the canonical link to wherever the OP’s home instance is.

There is a web app called Lemmyverse.link that will create Lemmy.world links from any Lemmy link, but it would be extremely convenient if this functionality were built into Voyager.

Ideally this could be added as a feature to Lemmy, but in the meantime, I’m hoping it could be added to Voyager!

Honestly that’s way less than it should be given how much other passengers were inconvenienced. That might be harder to quantify the value of, though, I suppose.

When sharing a post, the app defaults to using the URL from the home instance of the poster. I’d prefer to share the link as it exists from my home instance.

Recommendations for cappuccino mugs (lemmy.world)

With the state of Amazon currently, I can’t tell what is good and what is crap on there anymore. So I wanted to ask you fine people if you had any recommendations on cappuccino mugs. Not super worried about cost, but also don’t want to break the bank for some mugs.

Any recommendations / thoughts appreciated!

Please help me to get started (lemmy.world)

Hello!

I recently got a new espresso machine (a Breville Barista Express if that helps at all), and I have no idea how to get started picking espresso beans. I think I’d like a milder, darker roast for either lattes / cappuccinos but also good for drinking straight.

Where do I even go about finding a good bag of beans? Are there any recommended sites? Do you just go to your grocery store?

Any other advice for a brand-new first timer?

Any help is greatly appreciated!

When the old school RuneScape wiki moved to a self hosted solution it was night and day the quality difference. I’d argue that OSRS (and probably regular RS) have some of the best wikis in gaming.
