I’m surprisingly level-headed for being a walking knot of anxiety.
Ask me anything.
Special skills include: Knowing all the “na na na nah nah nah na” parts of the Three’s Company theme.
I also develop Tesseract UI for Lemmy/Sublinks

Although when I sold mine, we had people literally break our counter during a viewing
I’m assuming your state based on the dubvee lol
lol, yeah.
I went through inspection and appraisal 5 years ago when I refinanced, so that’s all fine. But I would lose my insanely good mortgage (15 year at 2.2% APR) and have to start again with whatever current rates are though I could likely put down a very large down payment.
I wasn’t seriously considering the offer so much as wondering how legit it was in preparation to sit down and think about thinking about considering the offer lol. But the replies here have cleared up how predatory these offers are, so, yeah, it’s going in the trash with the rest of the similar offers.
Nothing wrong with a realtor, but I’d have to have somewhere to move to while it’s on the market which could be any length of time. I only skimmed the offer, but it mentioned something about transition period for moving, etc.
I was mostly hoping this would let me short-circuit the usual process of selling and moving, letting me get the money for it, and find somewhere temporary while I look for something permanent.
Other than just wanting out of this awful state, I really don’t want to move/sell. I’d worry about finding another job later as I work remotely now but am expected to go in on occasionally so couldn’t work from another state for too long.
But as the replies have made clear, this entire industry is more of a scam than I assumed it already was, so I’m just gonna keep buying lotto tickets and hoping for the best.
That makes sense, and is most likely what the offer is. House isn’t a slum, and I’m not facing foreclosure, so I guess they think they can make a profit on it.
I wasn’t seriously considering it, but I was at least looking into it because, yeah, I want out of here.
politicsWednesday’s Supreme Court arguments over birthright citizenship went very poorly for Donald Trump.
The phrase “went very poorly for Donald Trump” can pretty much universally be translated as “Went well for literally everyone else”.
The default UI makes it clunky, but I think you can go to you profile settings (https://lemmy.world/settings) and on the “Blocks” tab search for the community and add it to your blocks.
No Stupid QuestionsAh, nice. I recommend that one to OP then since it’s 1st party and not an alpha version haha.
Not sure if sh.itjust.works offers Tesseract as a UI option, but you can direct ban/unban users and bulk-mod comments among other improvements to mod tooling and report actions.
If not, then I’d normally point you to the unlocked hosted instance (https://tesseract.dubvee.org/) but the VPS provider it uses is having issues right now, and my 3 hour old ticket has not yet been acknowledged.
Edit: Oh, they answered my ticket and I was able to start it back up, so the hosted instance should be working if you’d want to try it.
ShowerthoughtsBombadil was referred to as “The Hermit” before they revealed his identity when GrandElf (aka Gandalf née The Stranger) crosses paths with him.
Someone said if you forget it’s LOTR and just treat it as its own thing it’s not half bad.
Basically. I don’t forget it’s LOTR but I do keep in mind it’s not the Peter Jackson trilogy nor a 1:1 from the books.
I was really really hoping it was going to be about the fall of Numenor.
It is, but it’s slow burn and a something of an overall B-plot to the titular Rings of Power in the second season and the creation of Mordor in the first.
The main online gripe that I can agree with how the characters “fast travel” as plot demands. I just accept that as necessary to condense things down to a suitable runtime for a TV series.
He’s in Rings of Power which I guess counts as a derivative. I don’t want to start a flame war since a lot of people hate that adaptation, but I enjoy it for what it is.
No Stupid QuestionsThe From field in email is pretty much on the honor system. You can put anything you want there, and the servers will happily send it.
This is why we have things like SPF (sender policy framework), DKIM (domain key identified mail), and DMARC (Domain-based Message Authentication, Reporting and Conformance) and why that message was in your junk folder rather than your inbox.
When your email provider receives a message from cheese_greater@lemmy.world, it looks up the DNS record for lemmy.world to see what IP addresses (among other things) are allowed to send email for users at lemmy.world. It compares those against the IP of the server sending on behalf of the user claiming to be cheese_greater@lemmy.world. If they match, the SPF check passes. If they don’t match, the check fails.
DKIM is also used to add a digital signature to each email originating from lemmy.world. The signature of the message is checked against lemmy.world’s public key (which is retrieved via DNS lookup). If the signatures match, the DKIM check passes. Otherwise, it fails.
Spam filters can then use the results of those to shunt the message to Junk if they don’t pass. The last item, DMARC, is an optional policy lemmy.world can configure to tell receiving servers what to do with messages that fail those checks. The most commonly used options are reject and quarantine (i.e. mark as junk)
Right timeline, wrong universe.

I noticed they similarly (and correctly) downgraded/tanked the credibility rating for cdc.gov as well.

Is there a Github for this and/or possibly a framework for the chat, leaderboard, and federated magic-link login?
I’ve thought about putting together some simple games with Fediverse login but never wanted to deal with the low level boilerplate stuff.
Announcements@lemmy.zip
Thanks for a deep check and fix, especially since this was probably due to my own filtering/bot blocking. Working now :)

How does the verification work? Says it can’t verify my instance.
FediverseIt’s just there and under the same domain. Otherwise, it’s a completely separate system that instance users can sign up and use. Maybe in the future they can both use the same OIDC login, but I don’t think Lemmy supports that yet.
The UI we use as our default has Peertube integration, so any videos shared from this Peertube instance (or any other) will show as inline embeds within the Lemmy client.

Has anyone ever accepted an offer from one of those "we buy your house, no questions asked" companies? If so, what was your experience? [Answered]
Yes, I know they’re scummy as fuck. Yes I know they’re gonna turn it into yet another overpriced rental. But I’m mostly asking if they’re otherwise legit.
