Have you looked at the cost of day care? And diapers? Or just having a place to live with the extra necessary bedrooms? Pre pandemic I read some article that (as I vaguely remember) estimated it costs at least $100k to raise a child to 18 in the US. I imagine it's closer to $150k or more by now. Probably way more.

    Seabaugh, a Republican, was elected to the Georgia House in a special election in the summer of 2021, The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported. His district includes parts of western Cobb County and portions of Marietta and Kennesaw.

    Seabaugh faces Democrat challenger Karl Gallegos in the Nov. 5 general election.

    I think I figured out how to reproduce it really quick.

    1. Log in to Lemmy on Firefox
    2. Switch to a different app
    3. Switch back to Firefox
    4. Reload the page.

    Poof! I'm out. I repeated the test multiple times to confirm it's consistent. Probably actually getting kicked out on step 2. It's like FF decides to expire the Lemmy cookies when the app loses focus.

    Armed with that info, I retested two alternate front ends on programming.dev (a. & t.) and default front end on lemmy.world and default front end on programming.drv with Brave. I was previously getting logged out on lemmy.world, but not now (maybe they updated something? Or my test is still flawed.). So, with these steps I can only reproduce it on programming.dev with the default front end on Firefox.

    Update: Haven't used my lemmy.world account in a while, so thought I'd test this out over there. Same thing happened after several minutes. Then I tried on Mastodon.world for a while and it seems to work fine. I'll try giving the alternate front end another round of testing later today.

    Addendum: Can't reproduce the problem on t.programming.dev today, and couldn't seem to on a.programming.dev yesterday, so it seems to be specific to the default Lemmy front end.

    Ok, so pretty certain this is specific to my phone.

    Browsed the recommended alternate front end for as long as I could stand it. Didn't get logged out, but I may have just not waited long enough.

    Back on normal frontend, I deleted all browsing data (cookies, etc), logged back in and then got kicked out within a few minutes.

    Rebooting the phone now. 🤞

    Update: Nope, still getting booted within a few minutes. Beyond just using a different browser, I'm out of ideas, so I'll try that for a bit. 🤷

    Update 2: Doesn't seem to be happening in Brave. So currently, only in FF, only on my phone, clearing cookies and rebooting did not help.

    I'm open to any more ideas.

    Andrew Tate has been detained in Romania after an arrest warrant was issued by UK authorities in relation to charges including “sexual aggression”, his representative has said.

    The social media influencer, 37, and his brother Tristan Tate, 35, face charges dating to 2012-15, according to a statement.

     

    A man in the US state of New Mexico has pleaded guilty to helping a defeated Republican candidate carry out drive-by shootings at the home of Democrats.

    The defendant, Demetrio Trujillo, says the candidate, Solomon Peña, hired him after failing to win a seat in the state legislature in November 2022.

    Over the following weeks, the residences of several Democratic officials were attacked in Albuquerque.

     

    When Americans are asked to check a box indicating their religious affiliation, 28% now check 'none.'

    A new study from Pew Research finds that the religiously unaffiliated – a group comprised of atheists, agnostic and those who say their religion is "nothing in particular" – is now the largest cohort in the U.S. They're more prevalent among American adults than Catholics (23%) or evangelical Protestants (24%).

    Back in 2007, Nones made up just 16% of Americans, but Pew's new survey of more than 3,300 U.S. adults shows that number has now risen dramatically.

    Researchers refer to this group as the "Nones."
