Ding ding! After the Proton fiasco, I got a domain and have started moving my accounts to that email, which connects to Tuta

Too late to stop it from happening, not too late for consequences (in theory)

It’s been a few hours. I’m confident that no one is forgetting this as a lesson in the danger of trusting the US going fares.

Continued to support Democrats after they fucked him in the 2016 primary, I’m guessing?

I don’t know, I still like him

Are you fucking kidding me? Governments should be moving toward systems that make information easily accessible to every person in the country.

I mean, I’m not surprised, because America is The Bad Place. But they continue to find new and creative ways to disappoint and infuriate me

Who cares? Texting is meant to be a convenience, not something that demands my attention. That’s the beauty of texting vs a phone call - I have time to think and do other things before replying

Less than Google is, for now. But still bad enough for me to be switching to Tuta

This was made a few months ago, and I don’t think they edited the video to say anything about the events of the past few days. Further proof though, that there is a long history of his behavior here. He’s not a Nazi because he did the salute, he did the salute because he’s a Nazi.

And you have to do it within the narrow time and energy constraints created by needing to work to stay alive.

I’ll definitely do that! Thanks for the recommendations

Why is that? I’m switching away regardless, so I’m just curious. I started using it because it made everything simple

I don’t use any *arr, though I’ve been meaning to look more into it. I do use Jellyfin though, so I’ll probably start there.

I’ll take a look at Nginx proxy manager for domain configuration, like another user in this thread suggested

Thank you! That’s helpful. How would you go about setting up a password and 2FA for your own site? I would like to make my services “publicly” available (to myself and friends/family)

Thank you!

Are there any simple services you’d recommend starting with to get a feel for things? I’ll probably start with AdGuard, unless there’s a better option

And I don’t plan to use both at the same time, so conflicting ports shouldn’t be an issue.

Is the process for configuring your own domain with Docket enough of a pain that I should consider sticking with YunoHost?

My issue was not that Andy Yen made the comment he did (as much as I disagree). My problem was the Proton account making an official statement doubling down on it.

He did make a subsequent post trying to clarify and apologize, but at this point, the cat is out of the bag, IMO. I’m switching to Tuta for email, Mullvad for VPN, and self-hosting Nextcloud for storage.

It is pretty much just scaremongering. Marijuana, like any drug, can put a person in a mental state that can serve as a trigger for a psychological condition that someone is prone to, like if someone with a family history of anxiety gets way too uncomfortably high. It’s not necessarily the drug that’s at fault - it’s having a stressful experience of a bad time. I’ve never heard of psychosis induced by cannabis though.

Marijuana is just about the safest drug there is, and I think most people could safely try it with no ill effects.

When I was in high school, I excelled in math and science, so I was pushed super hard to go into engineering for college. I ended up changing majors eventually, but holy shit did I not understand just how strong the engineering school -> “defense” industry pipeline is. They recruit engineering students hard

It was an eye-opening experience, realizing just how many people were comfortable working for these companies as long as they got a fat paycheck

You are not as strong as you think you are. Lift with your legs, not your back.

4 days a week, 4-6 hours per day. Having a third weekend day is wonderful, and it really helps with running errands and making appointments. And I have a hard time doing anything for more than 6 hours in a day tops. Unless I’m on my meds, I’ve got about 3 hours of focus before lunch and three after, and that’s it. Which isn’t much of a problem in my current role, where I usually have more time than I need. What I hate the most is the obligation to sit at my desk for 8 hours a day, every day, even when there’s nothing to do
