It’s an Android setting. Assuming you’re in the US, you can disable all warning channels (including Amber alerts) except the National one, which I believe has to be on by law, but is only supposed to be used in apocalypse level emergencies. The Hawaii thing was triggered by accident, iirc.

On my S24, it’s in Settings > Safety and Emergency > Wireless Emergency Alerts.

I don’t know if it’s even possible to disable the National warnings, but you’d likely have to use adb or root your phone to do it.

OpenSUSE user here, “patiently” waiting for it to hit the repos.

The amount of anxiety I’d get just posting comments on reddit was insane. I’d spend a stupid amount of time rereading and editing my comment, and then there was still probably a 50% chance I’d discard it anyway. On Lemmy, after an adjustment period, it’s much easier. I don’t think I realized how hostile and toxic a lot of online spaces really are.

What kind of a ghoul do you have to be to commit arson and attempt murder (of two adults and six children) over unpaid rent? Like, you’re a landlord. Get used to rent issues or get a real job.

This is a really good point, I never thought about this. While we still haven’t seen the anti-adblock message from YT (Firefox + uBlock Origin on Linux Mint), we’ve been using Nebula more and more lately. It would be great if there was a similar service for quality kids content. As it stands we stick to just a couple YT channels for our 2.5 year old because of how much absolute, irredeemable garbage there is targeted at kids there. I can’t imagine how shit the ads are for them.

Idk, I get the feeling that they want OB/GYNs to leave. I think they want women to suffer and die in childbirth, just as God intended.

I’m from Western PA, and while I wouldn’t say I see a lot of people calling themselves midwesterners, we’re more alike than we are different. Western PA is hard to classify in terms of region. Most of us just say we’re from Pittsburgh/Erie/whatever and leave it at that. But since it is hard to classify, 10% or so of us saying that we’re “Midwestern” does not surprise me.

So I took a look as I’m always looking for good FOSS alternatives to apps that I use. I’m super stoked about this app! I don’t have a baby to track anymore, but we are planning on kid #2, and an app that doesn’t require anything is a plus.

The first thing I see that you might want to change is that the button to start/stop the feeding timer needs to be big. Like really fucking big. When I was nursing I was starting my timer one-handed and I have small hands as it is. My kid also wasn’t the best at nursing, so I’d often spend a lot of time in the beginning getting him positioned/latched. I could see the “small” button being a problem.

My husband is an engineer that works in plants and factories. The last three places he’s worked at were rural, or at least further from the city center. COL is typically lower in these areas, too, so lot of people get by on lower paying factory or service jobs, and as someone else said, a lot of retirees, too.
