What job board sites are the best now that Indeed and LinkedIn are infected with AI and ghost jobs? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.world
[–] 18 points 7 hours ago (1 child)

Unfortunately, a lot of it comes down to personal connections. Seems to be the only way to cut through the noise these days. I know this isn't a satisfying answer for young people starting out who don't have that network.

    Salon.com is shutting down in c/news@lemmy.world
    [–] 41 points 1 day ago

    I am saddened to hear of their closure. As a fellow oldie who began reading them in high school when they debuted (and thought of myself as very sophisticated for doing so), I shall miss them.

    I went looking in the Wayback Machine for the earliest archive of salon.com, which is from April 3, 1997 - https://web.archive.org/web/19970403013441/http://www.salon.com/

    Amusingly, this domain wasn't even theirs at the time, since the page welcomes hair salon professionals to the WWW! However, that site links to "Salon Magazine" via the charmingly quaint "E-Zines" link, which links to a different domain, salon1999.com . IA's first capture of this site seems to be from December, 1998: https://web.archive.org/web/19981212032509/http://www.salon1999.com/

    Are the first three years of Salon archived anywhere, or lost to internet history?

    On mint for a while now, people usually call mint a newbie distro, any reason to "upgrade" to a different distro? in c/linux@lemmy.world

    I enjoy Mint. It's my daily driver, and has been for years. I cut my teeth installing Slackware from floppy disks back in the day, and have been a *nix user/admin for 30+ years (IRIX, Solaris, AIX, HP/UX) and I'm a developer, so I think I qualify as a gray beard rather than a newbie.

    It just works. Distro wars are silly, as the other commenter said.

    Film communities and men's fashion (sh.itjust.works)
     

    I found this /c/ by chance while browsing through my All feed and promptly subscribed, not only because of the posts but also because of the friendly and knowledgeable people.

    I'm a long time lurker in several James Bond communities, and unsurprisingly, those fora have their share of men's fashion experts in the Bondian style.

    Among other resources, there are a number of outfits that economically recreate Bond costumes and clothing from the films such as Royale Filmwear - https://www.royalefilmwear.com/ and Bond Lifestyle - https://www.jamesbondlifestyle.com/clothing

    Like this community, the Bond groups online are very welcoming and worth a look by the fashion inclined.

    Sign in with Apple mystery (lemmy.ml)
     

    Digging around in iOS settings under Apple Account, I encountered the Sign In with Apple page listing apps to which authentication is being provided via my Apple account . All app entries are familiar to me except for one with an Apple logo and "Sign In Group Production" as the app identifier.

    I found a discussion on Apple's developer forum about Sign In With Apple and app grouping (https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/125087 ), but this isn't mentioned, and I don't use developer features or TestFlight on this device.

    Does anyone else have this entry or know what it's used for?

    Disappearing message notification / message app freeze (sh.itjust.works)
     

    I received a text notification from an unknown number earlier today. I'm usually suspicious of such things, but clicked the notification. The messages app loaded, but displayed a blank white screen until I closed the app. After doing so, there was no evidence of the message notification or the message itself, in any of the message categories (known, unknown, all, deleted messages, etc).

    This is on an iPhone 14 Pro Max using a fully up to date device running iOS 18.3.1 .

    Has anyone else experienced this? I am hoping that the group might be able to offer insight into whether this is a bug worth reporting to Apple, or an attack of some sort? I am aware that at least one zero-click messaging bug was recently patched in iOS. I rebooted my device, and I'm waiting for the security delay to expire so I can reset my iCloud password. I have 2FA and stolen device protection switched on.

    (please disregard link to example.com ; my Lemmy client wouldn't allow a text-only post without an image or a link).
