For URLs just put the URL into the lemmy search and it will find any posts with it.

For images there isnt really anything because it would require hashing all images uploaded to all instances and then allow people to search through them which is computationally expensive. Basically you want reverse image search like tineye.com but only for lemmy.

Oof that is pain. I have started to just move to a local text editor when i realize the comment is getting long.

Data hoarder?

To be fair, that is a horrible meme format for this purpose.

Thats what that will look like for example:

True, buts its a lot less than her other posts like this one

I just looked for “human speech frequency spectrum” images so i had to tineye it to find it again but this seems to be the source
https://erikbern.com/2017/02/01/language-pitch.html

I cant vouch for its quality, but it seems pretty in depth from a quick scroll.

Idk about the additive effects, but:

Fan noise especially is very “white” in the sense that it contains a lot of frequencies from low to high. That makes it ideal for overpowering (and subjectively swallowing) other noises (like other fans, speech, etc).

Fan noise

Speech for comparison happens in a frequency band where fans are very strong

Running water is similar. When you try to listen to a conversation or a video with speech while washing your hands, you will have a hard time understanding anything. With other noises that are in different frequency bands or only use very small range of frequencies it wont have that effect even if the noise is much louder than the running water was.

Noise cancelling in the sense that one noise actually makes another noise disappear, doesnt really happen under non lab conditions. Its more of a drowning out effect where your ear/brain cant differentiate the two noises anymore.

Selective hearing can do a lot of work by processing the signals from your ear in your brain, but that isnt all powerful.

Its somewhat unavoidable with some things, i have to admit.

Is it this app? https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jp.co.canon.ic.cameraconnect
Im sure this can be reverse engineered relatively easily if it connects over WiFi, because you can just sniff all the traffic quite easily.

I hope you havent installed any firmware updates recently, because they will surely try to prevent people from doing so and actively work to break existing 3rd party apps or older official app versions.

Edit: Nvm i saw you managed to downgrade the app.

Well then the title is just misleading i guess. If you need an app for extra features, they will harvest your data anyways even without an account. Unless the app was working without internet access before. The mistake is buying a camera that requires an app that isnt using an open protocol and expecting Canon not to make use of their software lock in thumb screws. In a year they will want a monhtly subscription fee for you to use the app.

And there is no other way to access the camera from your phone? Cant you just mount it as a storage medium over USB? Or if all else fails just use a USBC card reader dongle…

Are you sure? Thats not acceptable for most professionals so i doubt there is no way around it. Whats the modelname of your camera? How are you trying to access the files?

Those exist because of shitty companies pestering their users to create reviews.

I guess that answers the title, but not the post body question.

Im not trans or queer in any way, so maybe im not the best person to answer this, but i think the answer is a hard NO. Even if it might be safe now, if shit goes bad, you will want to have as little info as possible out there that could be used to identify you as trans/queer. I would go beyond that and recommend this, imo very insightful, article.

You can also get a big plate and lay them all out with a bit of spacing. That way you will easily spot it when the mold starts and they wont all be affected as quickly.

Probably, but the entire idea of “you can see it from space” is stupid anyways. Its only meaningful if its with the naked eye and the distance is specified. You can see anything from space if you have enough optical zoom…

There is always that one comment saying “b-but its technically kinda federated”. It doesnt fucking matter if its federated if 99.999% of all users are on one instance. The entire concept of a long lived, enshittification resistant fediverse relies entirely on being decentralized with a reasonably evenly distributed userbase. You fucking bet lemmy would already be completely worthless right now if people hadnt stopped lemmy.world from grabbing more communities and users.

Nah this xkcd really doesnt apply here. If you can can see and have at least the intelligence of a 6 year old then you can see that something is different about email compared to whatsapp or signal. With even the most basic pattern recognition skills you will find that everyone you know uses different apps, sites and addresses. Compare this to normal messengers where literally everyone will have the exact same app, interface and way to contact people.

Literally everyone who uses email knows that not every email address ends in the same way and that people use different websites and tools to access their emails.
