They are a legitimate crypto exchange.

Pretty sure they do ID verification depending on residency but you’d need to check their site for specifics.

For me it was fine, maybe about 15 years ago. Small startup company I was at ran out of funding, we got something like 1-2 months severance. We all got along fine so it wasn’t like everyone hated the job or the owners, sometimes startup companies just don’t make it through those first few years.

Summer is probably the best time to be unemployed, spent a lot of time exploring my neighborhood during the weekday afternoons and was practicing making cold brew & other summer drinks LOL.

Was doing freelance work while being on unemployment / looking for a new steady job. Think it was about 4-5 months before I landed a new job (did get 1-2 job offers during that time but was maybe being a bit picky & turned them down).

… Also helps that I keep savings so short term unemployment won’t wreck me. I’ve seen posts about people being out of work for years, that would be a far worse scenario.

Yup agree with you there, Tabasco sauces are great. Not sure that I’d call their Sriracha an actual alternative vs the original Sriracha sauce but aside from that there’s nothing wrong with their version.

I do like that they didn’t add a ton of extra ingredients to their version, simple ingredient list = better IMO.

Maybe not the Tabasco Sriracha if you’re looking for that Sriracha flavor. It’s not bad at all but it basically tastes like Sriracha flavored Tabasco sauce. That could be a good thing, there are a ton of Tabasco sauce devotees out there, just don’t expect it to taste like a proper Sriracha sauce.

A lot of these alternative Sriracha brands seem to have a ton of extra ingredients vs the original which puts me off from buying them.

Windows has its default Remote Desktop Connection that uses RDP (Remote Desktop Protocol), once enabled it will listen on port 3389. It is pretty solid and has a few features beyond VNC. Just be careful, you probably don’t want to open that port onto the internet since every port scanner is scanning that port & looking for unpatched Windows vulnerabilities or insecure user/password logins.

I use RDP myself for my Windows system but I need to SSH into my network before using it, so it’s really RDP over SSH. If you’re not going to go through all that at the very least change the port to something else so it doesn’t get port scanned to death.

… TBH if you’re not too sure about how to secure this stuff maybe Chrome Remote Desktop is the best option, at least it’s secured behind your own Google account (hopefully that itself is secure and you have 2FA enabled).

VNC is the kind of the baseline remote desktop that works on pretty much any operating system. You can start there & then decide if you need specific features that the others have.

You didn’t mention your own OS but it too probably already has support for its own remote desktop solution.

Screenshot the QR codes & save offline to a USB disk. Alternatively some people do print them but that only works for people that have printers or access to one. Same with the 2FA backup codes.

Or less ideal you can save them somewhere secure on your desktop/laptop/whatever, just keep in mind if you get hacked or get malware/whatever then it’s game over.

If you get .flac, .wav or similar lossless music, you should could encode that with opus.

Fixed.

Unless you have a strong stance against people storing lossless files of their music? But I don’t think that’s quite what you meant :)

Looking specifically for men but I’m open to all opinions

Pay attention to what women are using, aside from dealing with make up the skin care routine isn’t that different.

In the shower I use a daily foaming face cleanser. Using soap is worse on facial skin (ends up causing more breakouts, etc.).

I use bar soap for the rest of my shower routine.

In the mornings and evenings I moisturize dry skin areas (mainly hands and lips).

Before shaving I always exfoliate.

In the U.S. I tend to use Aveeno products for that stuff but you should be able to find equivalents of those things in Europe.

Ah I remember that one, that AI image looked just like one of those weird t-shirt spam posts LOL.

That aside not quite sure what position this community takes on AI generated posts. Personally I’m here for the normal memes so I’d probably unsub if it was flooded with AI posts, but just a random post once in a while isn’t a big deal. For what it’s worth there are definitely communities around that cater to AI image posts, you could try one of those instead.
