The DMV and the post office(if you submitted am address change) are the most likely offenders.

Privacy guides?org has a fairly active forum

In the US it can even vary by state. Dying without a will or transfer on death assets can be a nightmare for the deceased family. My father died without a will and my mother and I spent a year jumping through hoops and dealing with lawyers trying to get everything straightened out.

I encourage everyone to take a look at their local laws related to the subject. You may be surprised at how things would work out without some planning on your part.

Yep, that was the first thing I thought of after reading the headline. I read 'The woman who.would not be silenced' and it left a big impression on me.

 

Is anyone using Gnucash? I've been on a kick of streamlining my finances and want to simplify from my current spreadsheet for tracking expenses. I have seen Gnucash mentioned around and am considering it. Is it easy to use and import transactions from credit cards?

I hate manually entering each purchase because I invariably typo an amount somewhere and spend hours at the end of the month trying to figure out why I don't balance.

I've downloaded it and tried playing with it but it seems clunky. I'm wondering if it gets easier once you get past the learning curve. Thoughts/experiences?

Apologies...I misread that

Try removing bitwarden and do the same test. Ibet bitwarden is checking for updates that it needs to sync.

I should clarify. I have zero spam at my new email Addy and 20-30 at my old hotmail account.

I dramatically reduced my spam by switching to proton email and requesting removal at the big data brokers. Inteltechniques.com has a list of data brokers and how to request removal of each. There are a ton of brokers but I just did the big 6-8 brokers that they recommend starting with. I went from hundreds of spam a day down to 20-30. YMMV.

Yep I've been working through the old shows and remember him talking about that. This was weird that all the episodes were removed..even recent ones. I just found his podcast so I'm hoping its just a temporary hiccup.

[–] DogMom@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (4 children)

The podcast is currently down. A new show was published the other day and then quickly deleted as well as all the old shows. It's not clear whats going on with it....legal or technical issue.

Oh yeah. Don't fuck with cats was great. I guess I knew in theory that sort of thing was possible but to seeing real implications was a serious gut check. It made me seriously consider my online activity and things that I was revealing g unintentionally.

Edited for grammar

I feel your pain. I've been trying to clean my digital life up and it is almost overwhelming. I've only been working on it for a month or so in my spare time but it's a collosal PIA. I wish every site that had a create account button had an equally obvious and easy to click delete account button.
