Hi. I've been watching Reacher a lot lately, but I'm looking for more vigilante shows or crime-fighting shows. It'd be great if it was about fighting nazis or taking down the alt-right, but regular crime-fighting is alright too. Something like The Boys. Here are some of the shows I watch.

The Hunting Party Reacher Cross Rizzoli & Isles

Has anyone here expanded internet connectivity to their garden with an ethernet cable? I am speaking about non-wireless communications. To some hut some 100 meters away? What are your experiences with it? Is it as simple as digging a cable trench, putting the cable in (maybe with some pipe to protect it) and covering it?

Are fibre optics a viable long-range alternative to copper ethernet cables for local area networks?

For example, cheese is mold and mold that grows on food after it sits for a while is also mold, but that mold is disgusting whereas cheese is edible.

I got in a political argument with some clown on Facebook. He managed to retrieve my wife's cell phone number and our home phone which is unlisted and technically just provided by our Internet company that we never use.

None our personal info is really available on Facebook and our profiles are pretty locked down, but he called my wife's phone a few times last week which she has blocked and never answers. Comes up as anonymous on her id.

He tried our home phone 16 times which I ignored, everything stopped, he called again tonight. I decided to answer. He said he knows where I live my wife and daughters name, and our address. He never gave out that though and that he is coming to kill us. Said that on the line

I have called my local police department. But this is rural Nebraska they said they can't do anything or have our phone companies run a trace.

Is there anything I can do to figure out who this guy is?

I had seen the donghua 'The leader' recently. Also, saw Andor.

It always feels strange once the orchestra stops playing annd its the composer that bows for the applause.

So this will be my first time getting drunk drunk, and my friend is a year older than me and has done it several times before. I could have him watch me, but there may be a chance that he'd be high/drunk too, so what are some things to watch out for and consider during my first time getting drunk if I'm able to go to his house?

Good evening all,

New to Lemmy and such (reddit wasn't working for me)

Anyone knowledgeable in tarot or astrology? Wanted to start a discussion on the natural links between certain cards / placements and academic study. For example, maybe the suit of pentacles would be associated with the sciences.

Open to any and all ideas!

Nice to be here, nice to meet y'all,
the prinx

I am very much onboard with the idea of the EU breaking free of the US grip on data and the internet. I also very much want to get out of the US, but I’m trying to figure out how. I have extensive experience in infrastructure, networking, Datacenter’s, Linux, etc. and I’m sure that there are companies in the EU that are needing those skills. I haven’t had much luck with general job boards (unless I’m looking at the wrong ones).

So Lemmings, does anyone know of any good resources so I can help put my skill to use and get out of here while I’m at it?

I say 'in Germany' because there's where I reside, a welfare state.

We don't have 401K here, but public retirement systems, mandatory.

My employer also matches what I put in a small state pension system up to 50 euros. Not really much, better than nothing.

What number do I have to reach for a decent retirement? Retirement age: 67 years old.

Is it enough to save or do I have to invest?

I don't like my job and think about reducing to 50%.

Where I work (Germany), several colleagues do that, but most of them are married women where the husband is the main breadwinner working 100%. I live alone and have to finance myself independently.

I now earn 4,000 euros brutto, 2,900 netto and can save some for retirement. If I work 50%, I'll earn half that.

I did an apprenticeship as a nurse and while the money is ok, the job is not. People say with a nursing apprenticeship you won't be poor, but what they don't tell you is how taxing it is and how you have to be a sociopath not to be criticized by management.

Looking for some opinions out of Germany.

There are oodles of neat and singular programs on github and similar. Curious what steps people take to vet for malware before downloading and trying stuff, especially if you’re not very familiar with the coding language it’s written in.

so ive seen several nicknames for my name, veronika. ive seen vero, vera, ronnie, and even nika. however, i live in the united states so im scared that if i have teachers call me nika, kids will "think" im calling myself a racial slur (the n-word) even tho i went to middle school with a nika/nikka (i forgot how to spell her name). i'm nonbinary, so ronnie could work for being short for ron, maybe aaron or veronika/veronica, but i dont really like masculine terms even tho there are plenty of girls named ronnie.

i already go by vero at school sometimes, especially since in my spanish class, vero was listed as a nickname for my spanish name, which is just verónica. i am also russian-american and vera is a name there in russia. ive heard of some russian girls and characters with the name.

So I narrowed down nicknames to go by as I go by Angelica as my full online name. I was thinking for my choices, Angel, Angie/Angi (maybe Angie), or Angela.

I have a bath every night, no matter the weather. 30 mins reading my current book before washing and shaving. I have a bath thermometer and keep the temperature at 43.5 degrees c. Usually some muscle relaxing herbal bath salts. It's the best part of the day. Pure bliss.

I have this rule that when the foodtime song plays, those are the only FoodTimes and if cats violate that contract by begging for food near the foodarea, I start following them singing "You still belong to meeee-eeeeee" and get increasingly more intrusive of their personal space while tailing them until they've taken initative to shake me off by retreating to one of the designated Sanctuary/Uncle-Zones, miles away from the feedingHole

Kinda like when people follow you in their car and its like bumper to bumper almost but not quite. It works too kinda, haha. I definitely get a kick out of it, some good clean harmless family shenanigans

Also my youngest delights when I annoy and tease her with the fingertrap i get my weed vapor cartridges

I measured my feet, checked my size on a chart and bought a pair of high heels. Apparently women's feet are thinner than men's, but I never thought they were that much thinner. Shoe fits but it hurts.

Foot measures are 27 cm long and 10 cm wide across the ball (10.62'' long and 3.93'' in imperial)

I compared the heels to my unisex sneakers: sneakers are 11 cm (4.33'') wide across the ball and the heels 7.5 cm (2.95'').

I don't believe any heel brand makes 10 cm (3.93'') wide heels.

People have recommended me to go a bigger size, but a larger size is going to be longer and will fall off.
