They constantly force you to update or the app won't work. I was already having issues with Revolut on GrapheneOS so I just closed my account and switched to Wise. The Revolut app was a bloated mess anyway.

Wait, you'd prefer a rando barrel plug to a standard USB-C PD?? Why?

Long ago, pre-internet I read this sci-fi book "Star Chase" by Brian Royal that I found at the library. (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1520203)

I later looked it up and found out it was a blatant plagiarism of "Escape Across The Cosmos" by Gardner F Fox.

Even the authors name was faked!

Not a medical procedure, but take the time to reevaluate your medical plan before open enrollment! Look at the cheaper plans and see how much you'd save in premiums. It might be greater than the difference in max out of pocket. And if you get a qualified "high deductible" plan you can even contribute the savings to an HSA that you get to rollover and keep forever into retirement, without ever paying taxes on it.

Key points:

Temperatures in that part of the Atlantic cooled off more rapidly than at any time in records extending back to 1982. This sudden shift is perplexing because the strong trade winds that normally drive such cooling have not developed.

“We’ve gone through the list of possible mechanisms, and nothing checks the box so far.”

“It’s the latest episode in a string of events for a climate system that’s gone off the rails for a number of years,”

I have this but it's no good for consent-or-pay, unfortunately.

I think Geometric weather is abandoned but Breezy Weather is a newer fork that's maintained. I recommend it!

Makes so much more sense than a Cybertruck or Ford Lightning!

@derivator wow it would be amazing if Infinity and Apollo could just plug into Lemmy using this proxy. Right now Jerboa is alright, but I'd immediately switch to Infinity.
