Why I Use LibreOffice Instead of Microsoft 365
LibreOffice is more than just a good substitute; it’s a worthy replacement in its own right.David Delony (MakeUseOf)
FediNuke/tier0.csv transparency update:
Added some new bias sources to replace a removed one, and increased the consensus requirement. This caused some removals.
No new instances added to FediNuke. Two dead instances removed:
noagendasocial.nltheapex.social
Removed 16 dead instances from my larger tier0.csv list. After these changes, another 9 instances failed to meet the consensus requirement for inclusion without overrides. I used my override process to add back 5 that were of sufficient severity. See more about my override process: I can force-add instances that almost have the minimum consensus requirement, with minimal overhead.

Wouldn't a resume option do the same and more?
I could see where skipping files could be useful, but imho it's easy to deal with in scripts, resuming OTOH isn't and would skip files if the size match (possibly with a variant to skip if length can't be pre-determined or transfer can't be resumed...).

Did you get a fake McAfee or Norton invoice? How the scam works (and what not to do)

I wonder who thought it would be a good idea to use a separate circuit breaker per socket but then wire three of them under one shared RCD so that (much more common) earthing fault in one socket will disconnect a group of three.
Putting there 6 two-pole circuit breaker/RCD combinations would take exactly the same space, provide full separation between outlets and would cost only a few euros more.
Wondering if I can risk £12 on a book. I don't normally spend that much on authors I don't know but it looks like an interesting sci-fi story.

After the building's drain was finally unclogged yesterday, I noticed my siphon (P-trap) cleanout cap threading is imperfect, and water was slowly dripping out of it.
After cleaning the threading with a soapy toothbrush, I wrapped teflon tape (6 rounds, in the direction where you screw the cap on) on the thread, and used a Sharpie® to annotate my servicing technique (tool & rotation direction).
Forget pliers, use a jar opener; no excessive force, no damage.
This post got like 500 boosts and now all these computer people want to talk about package management so I think it's important to take a moment and show the new followers what I really care about: butts
