I've never been a Russell Brand fan and this is probably one of the least surprising things I could read about him, but get this Fox News shit outta here.
I feel like it should be called "primary" labor or something to that effect. "Skilled" labor that can't function without "unskilled" labor to support it can be called "secondary" labor.
Seems to make sense to me. The "and the government doesn't want them to" part is the explanation for why it is nearly impossible to get.
"If you had just picked a better water bucket, we wouldn't be in this mess. It's your fault if the house burns down."
Humans (and most other animals) see better side-to-side than up-down. Your eyes are spaced horizontally, giving us a wider horizontal field of vision. People generally prefer putting things side-to-side in work environments, maybe also reflecting how much easier it is to move and work within a horizontal plane than a vertical one. So the upper threshold for monitor width would be longer than the upper threshold for monitor height.
That being said, I know reading is best done in narrower columns, to reduce the amount of left-right movement your eyes need to do which can cause you to lose your place when skimming lines. Three columns of text on a 16:9 monitor is way more readable than one column of text that spans the entire monitor.
And then why do we make an exception for phones which are predominantly used in portrait mode? I guess maybe just for easier 1-handed use? Maybe also to give us more peripheral vision of potential hazards and other things happening in the background when using them, since they're mobile devices.
It wouldn't surprise me either if the main thing the PIs turned up was that a larger insurance company already beat them to the blackmail.
Are there no Canadian financial institutions capable of launching their own cards and payment processors? That seems like a pretty big issue if the US is still skimming money off of each Buy Canadian purchase made by any medium other than cash.
Good recommendations, I hadn't even considered Zoom and we use it all the time for work.
It sounds like you have no agency either way, then, which still sounds like a bad deal to me. I'd rather die at 40 living a life of my choosing than live to 400 with essentially no free will.
I'm not sure I understand the question. If the premise is that you become physically incapable of doing any action that introduces greater risk than some alternative, which isn't even a guarantee of "immortality" as described, then it's basically a life not lived at all. The safest option would always be to go nowhere, do nothing, speak to no one.
Imagine living life as if everything was covered in California Prop 65 labels saying "This action can expose you to risks which are known to future you to cause premature demise or other bodily harm." It sounds awful, I'd never take that bet.
Not the best answer because it's not open source, but both Google Photos and Apple iCloud support automatic cloud backups of photos and videos over data. That media can also be accessed separately from a browser or another device after logging in.
Those are the only immediate solutions for the problem you describe that I can think of off the top of my head, I'm afraid, but hopefully other options are out there, too.

[Bug] The following two posts fail to open in Sync but open normally when logged in from a browser
(lemmy.world)
Post 1: [Potentially NSFW, image-redacted screenshot below] https://lemmy.world/post/21854714
Post 2: https://sh.itjust.works/post/27879920
I was able to comment in these threads from my PC via the Alexandrite frontend, but attempting to view those comments via Sync displays "Could not load post" with an option to Retry, which does not succeed.
Post 1 appears visible when opening the community, but opening the post displays the same error. Post 2 (the sh.itjust.works link which is posted on a lemmy.world community) the post does not appear in the community at all in Sync.
Confirmed that these communities/users are not blocked on my account, and no filters set within the app should apply to these posts either.

Fixed(?): Black screen when swiping post closed bug resolved after Samsung's One UI 6.1 update
(lemmy.world)
When Samsung last updated One UI several months ago, myself and many other Samsung users (and Pixel users on Android 14 as well, judging by the replies) encountered a bug where swiping posts closed showed only a black background until fully closed, after which the content one would expect to see would appear.
Last night, One UI updated to 6.1 on my device, and when I used Sync this morning, I noticed that the black background bug is no longer happening.
!Unfortunately I now need to re-learn my navigation gestures because Samsung apparently thinks it's fine to force people to completely re-learn how they navigate their phone overnight...!<

Seen on a comment today, this user with an Arabic username, written right to left, is rendered in between the points value and label text in Sync, rather than to the left of the value as expected.

Noticed a minor bug this morning when swiping a post closed where there is only a black screen in the background in place of the feed.
The feed loads immediately as expected when the post is fully closed, making this only a minor issue.
Notably, my phone updated to Android 14 just last night, so I was not sure if there was something weird with the OS update impacting the app, but it persists through a force close and clearing cache.

Minor spoilers for the quest "Breaking the Bank" below!
So after going into the archives to look for a certain missing GalBank ship for the Crimson Fleet, there were logs for other missing ships other than the one I was looking for.
Out of all of the options available to check, there was only one ship that had recorded a last known location: the "Supremacy", last known to be near Saturn.
I thought, "Hey now, they must have put a location for this one other ship for a reason, and I bet it would be pretty lucrative if I was the one to find it." Now, with that said, Saturn is a somewhat big area to search, with many moons to boot, and I can't seem to find any other leads.
Just so that I am not spending hours on a wild goose chase, I was curious if this is something that anyone else knows anything about, or if there might be other hints I simply missed?

I think they mean not letting the ideas go unchallenged. If someone is reading through and sees a bunch of Nazis posting hate all up somewhere with no one else saying anything, they might assume that sort of behavior is just tacitly accepted and influence their perception of the community as a whole.
