Maslo@lemmy.worldto World News@lemmy.world•Company tells employees to run miles each month if they want their bonusesEnglish17·2 years agoThis area has been pretty well explored by Pokemon Go players already. On Android there’s an app called defit that has multiple options for adding fake exercise data to your Google fit account which is where Pokemon Go, and typically these insurance apps, pull their info from.
A good thing to keep in mind is that you should match voltages, but with amps the cord just has to be equal or higher than the device. It’s a rating of what the cord can provide, not what it’s spitting out at all times like voltage.
So in your example of 12v 900ma, a 12v cord thats 1a or greater should work fine assuming the barrel is the same. This can also help declutter anyone’s ‘collections’…if you have a whole mess of 12v cords, you can safely ditch the lower amp ones.

Yeah…yeah they are
I never let a boomer get away with the “it’s just how I was raised” excuse when they show support for racist or homophobic views. I’m certainly not about to accept the same excuse from college kids who are at a school in order to learn new things.
Learn new things. It’s not a suggestion, it’s the entire point of being where they are.

Maslo@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Tech's broken promises: Streaming is now just as expensive and confusing as cable. Ubers cost as much as taxis. And the cloud is no longer cheapEnglish1·2 years agoI probably first got the weird idea when I signed up for Gmail and they made a whole show and dance about how your storage space just continually increases. The little storage space ticker was animated to the point of annoyance.
Today Google just annoys me with alerts that I’m 90% full and better give them money or else.
Maslo@lemmy.worldto You Should Know@lemmy.world•YSK: Browsing "ALL" at work might get you pulled into an office, even with NSFW off.1·2 years agoOr you could be like the company I previously worked for and not monitor anything with any seriousness, but a lowly tech managing some one-off software installs for the office PCs (me) might notice software that shouldn’t exist and report it. Happened to a new guy, the VPN to his home got higher ups combing through his work, and was the final icing on the cake after they also found emails from work to a personal email with customer information attached. They didn’t even entertain an excuse, he was sacked same day. (This was all pre COVID, there was no such thing as work from home)
So yea, definitely…VPN might not be the hammer that falls, but it can start the hunt and still burn you. Someone might use it to browse lemmy, other people might use it to steal company data. It’s not worth the risk for a company to attempt to differentiate between the two. Obligatory ‘your mileage may vary’, especially now with the COVID push to work from home, but it happens!

Maslo@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Children addicted to video games ran away from home in the middle of the night to find WiFi when parents turned their internet connection off, says expertEnglish142·2 years agoJust sounds like little Timmy figured out why they’re called mobile games before his parents did.
Remember when the right was so obsessed with stopping Russian propaganda that they dragged half the Democratic party into a Senate sanctioned witch hunt looking for Russian mouthpieces?
Now they happily gobble up Russian propaganda to own the libs.
this is informative, and unfortunate
Maslo@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Why is youtube recommending conservative "talking points" to me?5·2 years agoI can confirm, I get pushed Linus hard. I watched like 3 or 4 of his PC build videos one time a while back. Never clicked on a WAN Show episode (his podcast). But now if I let just about any gaming/tech video roll to next, I get served entire podcast episodes of his like 25% of the time. I never asked for this, I always click off, they keep coming back. I’m not mad really just bewildered. Idk the retention must be there

Maslo@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.ml•Sarah Silverman Sues Maker Of ChatGPT For Copyright Infringement710·2 years agoI can’t really take seriously any accusations coming from Sarah Silverman after that whole wage gap bs she tried to pull.
Seems like she isn’t afraid to manipulate a trending social outcry to collect a paycheck.
The last time I saw any of this piece of shit family mentioned, it was when he gave permission to his subhuman son to repeatedly beat the shit out of a civilian Russian prisoner who burned a Koran. I saw this because they filmed it and released it. And you want to call him honorable for protecting these animals?
Rotting in hell is too nice for kadyrov, what’s the next worse thing.
