Cake day: June 5th, 2023

  • When it was my birthday she bought me a slice of cake which was nice though and gave me a little note.

    Sounds like a small gift + a card/note might be a good idea then.

    I would suggest something simple like a coffee card, but if you want to be mindful of caffeine intake for pregnant women then maybe an alternative like a box of caffeine-free tea that’s soothing and calming? Or perhaps aromatherapy in the same vein if she’s not allergic to scents?

    Moms with small children are stressful enough on a good day let alone going through rough times, something soothing can hopefully make her day more endurable.

    Plus a get well card(or something appropriate for the event) with a short hand-written note can go a long way.





  • If you nuke the entire thing, you can blame technical difficulties, dropping support for “legacy” products and whatnot.

    Whereas if you only delete the offending content, it could mean:

    1. You knew they existed;
    2. You knew they were wrong;
    3. You tried to clean it up/hide it.

    When found out, it could be used against you for consciousness of guilt and trying to conceal it. Even if it doesn’t amount to charges it could be a bad look for the company down the road; whereas you could just tank the hit right now for being a heartless CEO and it only goes to the pile of things Reddit is doing for IPO.

    But let’s say there’s no crazy conspiracy behind and they’re just trying to clean house. You can never be sure how wide spread it is, or if you can indeed remove everything. Most importantly, why would you even devote extra resources to finding and reviewing for something that adds little to no face value to the main product(s)? Might as well just nuke the whole thing and be done with.



  • You could get creative with a premium account “A” where you can designate another person/account “B”(can be free account) with emergency access after a waiting period.

    When B requests access it’ll send an email where A can approve/deny access immediately; or if you’re completely locked out, B will be granted access after the waiting period that you can set passes.

    B can either be another person you trust, or it could just be a written backup that can be locked somewhere safe but not accessed on a daily basis.

    If you want, after designation you can cancel premium and the emergency access will still be active, you just cannot add/edit who has access.


  • I was just thinking about this. The issue may be more complicated than it looks.

    Currently Jerboa handles the links of only a handful of instances. As Lemmy as a whole grows and more and more instances pop up, it’s just unrealistic to have the app handle 50 million server hosts.

    Can opening links be something handled internally, at least initially, like maybe checking against the home instance’s list of federated servers?
