  • Booking.com cancelled woman's $4K hotel reservation, then offered her same rooms for $17K

    Jump

  • Personally I use those websites to find the best price, then call the hotel to book directly with them at that price. At least the hotel gets 100% of the money, I get a rebate and better & direct service and I get to fuck those websites out of their revenue share.

  • Valve Claims Steam Machine Outperforms 70% of Current Gaming PCs

    Jump

  • Not an issue limited to the Steam Machine, but yeah..

  • Valve Claims Steam Machine Outperforms 70% of Current Gaming PCs

    Jump

  • I rarely play the latest games, so that machine would be a good upgrade for me. Especially with the ability to load a different OS that I could use for both productivity and gaming.

    Bump it to a bigger SSD and 64GB of RAM and I'll be happy with it.

  • Not to the regular users if "Hide modlog mod names" is enabled, but other instance admins (including remote admins) can see it all regardless. So the info itself is federated across instances.

    Ex: if I look at the /c/[email protected] modlog as a guest

    if I look at the same modlog but with my lemmy.ca instance admin account

  • That's just the nature of the fediverse, all actions are public for transparency and accountability.

    Even moderator actions are public.

  • What is too high for a pending authorization charge for a gasoline purchase?

    Jump

  • For me it defaults to around $250 each time, but my car will take about $50 for a full tank. So I change it to around $60 just to avoid holding a lot more than needed.

  • What industry could benefit from more of their technology being open source, but the solutions are either not there or seriously lacking?

    Jump

  • Video-conferencing, it's terrible that most platforms out there aren't interoperable, and you have to choose which platform to use between businesses, and tough luck if your video-conference room doesn't support anything else than the one in use within your business.

    There are solutions out there to bridge these, or you can buy other hardware kits that claim to support multiple platforms, but that doesn't help you if you can't afford to replace those right away.

  • Do you know of any good reference projects to calculate sunrise and sunset times from NTP?

    Jump

  • In order to calculate an accurate sunrise and sunset time, you need the following variables to be known.

    • The current day
    • The current time (if you want to know the time delta for when it rises and sets)
    • The current location

    Also, we need to consider that NTP sends the time in UTC, and the timezone offset calculation is done by the endpoint.

    Even if you know the timezone your in, it still doesn't provide the exact position you need to accurately determine when the sun will rise and set.

  • People who rely on their phones/computers to tell time probably forgot or didn't realize that a Daylight Saving Time-Change even happened, some might've forgotten that DST existed at all.

  • I'll never understand it

    Jump

  • They want someone to blame for their perceived misery, and to vent their anger at others having it better than them.

    It's easier to do that instead of being introspective.

  • Has Trick-or-Treating died in your area, and what is to blame?

    Jump

  • Fewer kids on the street, they've outgrown the trick-or-treating phase. And with how expensive it is to own a property now, I don't expect young couples to buy a house here anytime soon.

  • i have lost 138 lbs (63 kg) so far and the body horror of it all is hitting me

    Jump

  • I wish I could get it, but my insurance won't cover it :'(

  • Have you ever used apple airtag thingy or Replicas?

    Jump

  • I'm in the Android ecosystem and I bought some compatible with the Google Find My network.

    I use them on my keys, inside my kids backpack (both in elementary school), one hidden inside my car, a spare that I put inside the bag I use that day when commuting (laptop bag, backpack, luggage) and another one attached to my dog's collar.

    The last one ended up being useful a couple of times, I couldn't find my dog in the house and he was sleeping under our bed, and another time he was sleeping on a white blanket the kids left bunched up on the floor and he was basically invisible on it (he's all white) 🤣
