Usually they don't allow options on new stocks until after the cutoff period. Unless your broker allows naked shorting.

My GF is type 1 diabetic so I have to be aware all the time of how much carbs are in things. It's actually insane. A glass of OJ has as much carbs and a can of soda for instance. A glass of wine has ~100-120 calories. Breakfast cereal is essential just carbs and sugar.

I dunno I have done a lot of work to cleanse my home of all of that. I have a pi hole for DNS blocking, I use Firefox with AdBlock on both desktop and mobile, I choose to not use ad riddled apps like TikTok or Instagram (fuck Facebook). I have a VPN which I use for most everything. My home is pretty ad and corporate free. As it should be. Granted I'm pretty tech savvy so none of this was hard for me but I could see my mom having problems.

We have lost 80% percent of insect biomass in the last 60 odd years, which has a huge ripple effect up the food chain, lots and lots of species (used) to rely on them for food. With most of them gone all the upstream species are being sffect / dying out as well.

Is there a way to protect data/user contents in Lemmy/Mastodon against now rapidly rising AI s? in c/fediverse

[–] Jeremyward 9 points 10 months ago

They can put a robots.txt file in their root structure which can tell robots (AI scrapers) to ignore that website. However that only works on robots which follow that rule, it's self enforced so it's a crap shoot of it'll be followed. Otherwise to be honest there isn't a lot a public facing website can do to avoid being scraped. Maybe put up a captcha on every page?
