I’m a man, from Israel.
I’m also a nerd, from Israel.
My romantic life are interesting enough for you to ask me questions about. But they are not good enough for a film.
My main hobby is to learn, and this means everything languages, coding, my using my body, to cook, you name it.
- Comment on What are the pros and cons to buying a smart watch from temu? 1 month ago:
When smart watches were begining to be a thing, a friend of mine bought a smartwatch for like 5$ in Ali express. When I asked him how the watch is he said “I am surprised that even for this low price, they still managed to disappoint me”
- Comment on How transwomen/transmen dream 4 months ago:
Boringly straight man here: I usually dream as myself, but occasionally I’m dreaming that I’m someone else. Could be either a man or a woman. Sometimes I have no body at all.
So I know nothing about how common my style of dreams are, but I don’t see any reason why trans people would have to dream a single persona all the time.

Interesting.
I wonder what I did wrong in the first time I searched for this that I couldn’t find anything.
So if I understand this correctly it is Greek mythology -> actual sea creature -> brain part.
- Comment on slayyyyy, maybe scavange too 5 months ago:
This happened to me, but then I went to investigate where the name “campus” came from, since campus has nothing to do with sea in Greek. All I found is that there was a sea monster in Greek mythology of that name …
(In Percy Jackson, there are sea horse which are proper horses only of the sea, I’m not sure where Rick Riden took the inspiration for them from)
- Comment on How do you backup your data? 1 year ago:
My work is using Google drive for Sync/back up so that is covered by them.
Personal data is automatically synched (syncthing) between three computers in different rooms in my home + some of the files is copied to my phone and tablet. I consider adding also an online server for further redundancy

Do you have a starting place? All I’ve found is instructions for copying NFC tags.
- Comment on Is there a way for me to upload my rifd Keycard to my smartphone? 1 year ago:
I scanned the card using an app “NFC tools” It sais that it is manufactured by NXP and the protocol is MiFares 1k. Guess this hould work.

I think I should give more information about how security works in Israel. Unless you work in a really classified work (I mean NSA level of classified) noone is going to give a fuck about what you do (until something bad happens and then they’ll come down on you). I’m not really concerned about that. I talked to my boss about it and he told me “hmm… it’s worth trying”.
- Comment on Is there a way for me to upload my rifd Keycard to my smartphone? 1 year ago:
It’s a shared office space, so I’m not really concerend about security. And they didn’t say anything about the card, just gave it to me. I discovered yesterday that one of the door is not even locked. As I said in another post, I think that the door thing is mostly for show and not for actual security.
About why not putting it on the belt, well, it’s not about (dis)comfort as much as refusing to make my job a part of what defines me. And this tag is related to the job.
- Comment on Is there a way for me to upload my rifd Keycard to my smartphone? 1 year ago:
True… I confused the term, but this makes my question even more relevant. Since I have to put the card on the reader, I guess that it is an NFC card, rather than RFID. Which means that I should be able to duplicate the signal with my phone. I think.
- Comment on Is there a way for me to upload my rifd Keycard to my smartphone? 1 year ago:
I’ll reply here also to @ratumoko@kbin.social - the building security is a joke. The company rents some offices in these share-space buildings. And there is no real security beyond that (OK, fine, also some cameras). I suspect that they use this system just to keep costumers happy, feeling like there is some security system in place. I’ll try the RFID ring and see if it works.
But my “real” question here is how come I didn’t find any app/instruction for making my phone itself an RFID keycard. As I type this I realize that this might be due to needing a specific frequency that the phone cannot produce(?)
That’s the technology they use: nfc-tools.github.io/resources/…/iso14443A/
- Comment on Is there a way for me to upload my rifd Keycard to my smartphone? 1 year ago:
I see that my phone should support encording NFC tags. I’ll order a chip ring and see if it works. Thanks.
I’m still curious though, why cannot phones produce that signals on their own? Isn’t this what they do with payment apps?
- Comment on Is there a way for me to upload my rifd Keycard to my smartphone? 1 year ago:
Wouldn’t that interfere with payment apps?
