I have a pCloud client running on my EndeavourOS system. I think it may be an appimage, but it updates no problem when they release one. Releases page: https://www.pcloud.com/release-notes/linux.html

Zectivi@sh.itjust.worksto Technology@lemmy.world•Is it safe to travel with your phone right now?English10·4 months agoAnother way on iOS is pressing the Power button 5 times. Same result, but I think it can be accomplished a little easier.
Zectivi@sh.itjust.worksto Technology@lemmy.world•Traveling this summer? Maybe don’t let the airport scan your face.English16·1 year agoClear is now a TSA “vendor” for the precheck process. The machines they use for the sign up process - at least the airport I was at - don’t have the eye scanning camera in the kiosk.
The Clear representative I was asking questions of had said they don’t require eye scans for Clear, though that is the default. People can ask to use just fingerprints, which he said does disrupt the terminal process as the agents don’t think to ask if fingerprints were what was registered when the eye scans fail.
I am not advocating for Clear. I refuse to use them. I simply do want to call out that they are one of 3 who handle the process for the TSA now. People do have a choice of which of the three to use.
Zectivi@sh.itjust.worksto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What discontinued foods do you miss?English2·1 year agoI just found their replacement in store. Check out my other comment below.
Zectivi@sh.itjust.worksto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What discontinued foods do you miss?English3·1 year agoThey’re (kinda) back!! I haven’t tried them yet, but I will.
Zectivi@sh.itjust.worksto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What discontinued foods do you miss?English31·1 year agoA few years ago, Morningstar used to have a vegetarian rib patty. Once I realized its potential as a vegetarian McRib, I bought a pack. It was delicious. I bought another pack.
And then it was gone from shelves in every store that had it.
Zectivi@sh.itjust.worksto Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ@lemmy.dbzer0.com•Plex To Launch a Store For Movies and TV ShowsEnglish23·1 year agoI believe what they’re getting at is an issue if they’re not already authenticated prior to the outage. Then they’d have no access to their media unless they look into the workaround for that beforehand. It has been an issue in the past, especially when Plex’s auth servers go down. I remember plenty of Reddit threads complaining about it.
Zectivi@sh.itjust.worksto Technology@lemmy.world•How social media’s biggest user protest rocked RedditEnglish7·2 years agoI was in a very similar position as you. Thirteen year user, moderator for a few smaller subreddits, including one that provided support for a US-based mobile phone carrier, and deleted everything when the API change happened.
It took time and effort to coordinate and help uplift those who generated the great content for those subreddits, but Reddit, Inc., was unwilling to help us moderators who had developed and used the tools necessary to do it. I wasn’t willing to put in the additional time since Reddit was themselves unwilling to, post API change.
Zectivi@sh.itjust.worksto Technology@lemmy.world•How social media’s biggest user protest rocked RedditEnglish90·2 years agoIn response to such critiques, Reddit spokesperson Rathschmidt said he did not “know of an industry benchmark for scoring content quality”.
(Emphasis mine)
This is the same tone deaf response I’ve come to expect from Reddit for some time now, and is why I’m happy to no longer be a user of their platform.
Zectivi@sh.itjust.worksto Technology@lemmy.world•How social media’s biggest user protest rocked RedditEnglish13·2 years agoAgreed. It didn’t feel respectful when they started replacing mod teams that refused to reopen.
Zectivi@sh.itjust.worksto Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ@lemmy.dbzer0.com•any place to find a large collection of .CHDs (PS1)?English12·2 years agoI’ve had success finding directories of chd’s after searching for something with “archive” “.org” “ps1” “psx” and “chd” as possible search terms.
Zectivi@sh.itjust.worksto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Do you prefer to wear a smartwatch or a regular watch?English3·2 years agoI use a Garmin Venu 2. It’s a “smart enough” watch where it’s not annoying in terms of notifications, but it provides all of the data I could imagine needing relating to my fitness activities. I started using it after Mozilla reviewed Garmin’s stance on privacy.
I also have a Seiko kinetic watch I wear for nice or more formal events.
Zectivi@sh.itjust.worksto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What are some podcasts that you listen to and why?English41·2 years agoSoft Skills Engineering: I listen for advice on the non-technical side of software development.
The Greatest Generation: a couple guys who review ST:TNG, DS9 and now Voyager episodes.
Greatest Trek: the above but for new Trek
Zectivi@sh.itjust.worksto Technology@lemmy.world•Apple AirTags stalking led to ruin and murders, lawsuit saysEnglish21·2 years agoFair point. I still feel that it could be better. I’m seeing that I can go to work, be there all day, and come home, and only receive the notification late evening. I’d prefer it to be faster for the sake of those affected by actual stalking.
Zectivi@sh.itjust.worksto Technology@lemmy.world•Apple AirTags stalking led to ruin and murders, lawsuit saysEnglish101·2 years agoThe pixels seem to have it by default. I don’t have the Apple app, but my phone will tell me the airtag on my keys was following me. It’s pointless though, because it shows up a couple hours after the fact.
Zectivi@sh.itjust.worksto Technology@lemmy.ml•Meta is back in the office three days a week, as WFH continues to dieEnglish6·2 years agoSounds about the same. We heard “record profits” every year during the pandemic when everyone was home. Suddenly it’s “we’re better together” and “culture.”
A coworker in another city going into the office the company has floors in, who is also the only one from our team there: “nothing is different. I’m still on zoom all day.”
Zectivi@sh.itjust.worksto Technology@lemmy.ml•Meta is back in the office three days a week, as WFH continues to dieEnglish50·2 years agoSounds a lot like what my company did. They made going in on Mon, Tue, Wed mandatory for everyone not designated as “Remote” beginning the day after Labor Day. The dumb thing here is that people don’t have a desk to go to.
They announced a construction project on one of the buildings a few months ago, and have since closed that building completely, moving those people into the main building, and announced at the same time the closure of 2 more buildings for “reasons.” This forced the need for “Flex Desks” as well as the installation of “bench desks” in what used to be common areas, just to fit people in. Further stupidity was introduced when they said that teams would have designated “neighborhoods” to sit together in, which is anything but. It’s really a floor or part of a floor for an entire organization - “figure it out.” So now when we arrive after our shitty commute, we have to wander around for a place to sit.
Then there’s parking, which, if you didn’t get into one of the 2 parking garages that are company owned and paid for by pre-tax deductions, then you have to find your own parking with your post-tax pay, because the agreement with the local garages wasn’t renewed during the pandemic.
All dictated to us by someone who regularly joins video conferences from his car, home, or Yacht.
Zectivi@sh.itjust.worksto Technology@lemmy.world•Kroll Employee SIM-Swapped for Crypto Investor Data – Krebs on SecurityEnglish4·2 years agoExactly. Despite making it incredibly frustrating for existing customers who want/need to manage their sim cards, they continue to have these sim swap attacks.
I enjoy seeing these. I still have the HBO Max “Integration Test Email #1” from 6/17/2021. It’s one of the oldest emails in my inbox, and its presence there motivates me to clear my inbox just to have a giggle.
I can’t recall if that can be done, but it doesn’t sound familiar. I’ll look later and update if I see anything like that.
UPDATE: There is a “Sync” config item that allows you to define a Local Folder and a corresponding pCloud Drive Folder. It looks like you can define a local folder, but then the ‘pCloud folder’ is any folder you have in your pCloud drive, existing or new. Could that be what you’re looking for?
