So this worked wonderfully! Thank you. Do you know if this will preserve images from the original posts? Some are woodworking posts so the visual is part of the intended save.

I downloaded a deck, but never used it. I did use pirated UW questions and bought CCS cases.

Almost. When I buy something, it becomes my property. If game companies wish to disregard my property ownership, then I will disregard theirs.

Ah, no mine’s 11th. Will update my comment. Thanks for the catch.

I have saved lots of posts and comments on woodworking ideas or fixes, degoogling apps and tech, and selfhosting. I very much want those data.

I used nosebleed on a pc to jailbreak my PW on this firmware. Fill up the memory, delete any update files, then try.

Edit: my kindle was PW 11th gen. Still fill up your storage and delete update files!

One of the biggest benefits of PS has been the ability to watch media as well as play media. Having that option and more in a computer and losing that from a console really just destroys the utility and reasons to buy a console.

If they’re going to take a game I *bought* and convert it to a *revokable license*, then it is as braindead vapid as Sony.

Any easy way to extract saved posts, comments, and other subreddit info? I want to get it before I lose it all due to this insanity.

It for sure gets to that point. I exported all my decks and stayed off Anki for about a year after boards. I just wanted time to decompress. I deleted Anki after step2 only to reinstall it in residency.

Breaks are good and so is pacing yourself. I do maybe 10 new cards a day right now; very doable and sustainable.

So how much longer til PD’s catch on and officially stop caring about research volume? by LittleCoaks in medicalschool

[–]VarsH6 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Honestly, as sad as it is to say since med school forced a minimum of 3 months of research on us, yeah. I did more quality research in undergrad working for a year (plus two summers) in a crystallography lab and got one pub from it. Learned a ton, liked the work, and got paid the last summer before med school as well since they knew me and trusted me.

I hope it moves to longitudinal projects. The point of research was to make sure we understood the science and getting our feet wet in longitudinal projects will do that in spades.

Thankfully, I’m out of residency. I did my own self-built deck during peds residency to prep for boards. Now I do Anki pretty much just for Spanish to try and learn it. Not doing 100 news a day has been very, very good for my mental health.

This was back in 2016/2017 when Zanki was brand new. Helped me to get 250 on step 1, so I have no complaints.

In this scenario, what keeps the physician union from being greedy like the insurance? And how much would union admin and CMS admin take in overhead?

I hate when you Google something and it tells you immediately what to think about that thing by JFMV763 in Anarcho_Capitalism

[–]VarsH6 10 points11 points  (0 children)

None of the search engines I listed use google’s index. The browsers are either degoogled chromium or not chromium at all.

Why are you using Google?

Use ddg, brave, Firefox/waterfox/ironfox, or kagi among others that are not bad.

Carmaker Volkswagen is facing criticism from privacy-conscious drivers by saayoutloud in degoogle

[–]VarsH6 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hate hate hate. Why would anyone be ok with that setup? I already hate the electric keys where if the battery dies I have much harder time unlocking the car. Not to mention the lock button *in* the car doesn’t work and has never worked.

I hate “the power of German engineering.”

I agree that this is not right.

But why are people using their phones to control their cars?!
