+1 for purelymail.

I've had my personal domain on gmail and most recently proton. Proton got too pricy when I wanted to add another couple of domains. After some research I landed on purelymail, and it's been smooth sailing to set up and use.

And don't even get me started on urinals.

I used one of those Dyson airblades at the airport once. The damn thing started blowing air mid-stream and I got pee all over!

Use btrfs-convert to convert ext4 to btrfs.

NTFS is 31 years old and not modern by any standard. Avoid if you care about your data.

Why must I be a crustacean in love?

Well, sure. If you did it wrong the first time around. For everyone else, just run "btrfs scrub

<device>

Use a modern filesystem that manages file integrity for you.

I use btrfs.

Don't forget to scrub and checksum your drive before making backups. You don't want to copy over rotten bits.

Same goes for the backup. And the backup's backup.

"USB-adapter" in this context used to be quite a shitshow.

I've seen at least the bastardisations of the USB-c spec where manufacturers just repurpose a couple of pins for analog audio. One for samsung, one for Xiaomi etc.

I hope most have gone over to being proper USB soundcards with a DAC today.

Maybe I can submit a proposal for risc-VI 🤣

No need! You can make your own custom extension! If the silicon doesn't support it, then you can provide firmware to emulate it.

Bring your own domain.

You don't want to be locked in to one mail provider for life. Just bring your domain when you leave.

I've had mine since 2010. First on Gmail, then proton and now purelymail. Gmail is evil. Proton is pricy, and more so if you have several domains. Purelymail is very affordable in comparison.

Do you all know what we import from Denmark? Medication

Ozempic comes to mind. It's still under patent, so I guess there's no other source than Novo Nordisk in Denmark.

Sweet!

I'm always jealous of EN-ANSI keyboard users who get neat devices like these in their native keyboard layout.

I don't think I've had one in my choice of keyboard layout since the Nokia e70.. 20 years ago.

I won a keg of beer on the entry ticket to a local beer festival.

A local hotel/chateau had organised it. They had failed with their marketing, and managed to pick the same weekend as a much larger beer festival in the same city.

I got ticket #26 on day 1, Saturday. I don't think they sold more than ten tickets after me that day. I walked past with my dogs the following day and there were like four people there.

Oh, and I also won the demo competition at a local demoparty. First prize was a bag of chips and a brush for doing dishes.

And the 64k intro competition at the biggest demoparty at the time. First prize was a big-ass box of sponsored hardware - graphics cards and processors and stuff.

This is more like that incel who repulsed girls in high school, and is now in his 40s

Don't forget that he used to be a moderator of r/jailbait

When my old man was little the local tobacco company would give you 50 penni for every rat tail you brought in.

It didn't take long for some kid to realise the best source of rat tails was the dumpster behind the tobacco factory.

They planted two plum trees and one cherry tree. I picked so many plums this year. Still have a bunch on the freezer ready to go in pies. Made two batches of slivovice moonshine back in the fall just so they wouldn't go to waste.

Don't forget that a door mat that says "welcome" counts as consent.

That's the last straw! From now on I'm only drinking beer.

What site is that?

Just asking so I know what to avoid.
