That’s a strong wrist. Too much self-pleasure!

Circumference, not width

What’s sobe?

Are those things in the middle at the back soft pretzels? They look like conkers (horse chestnuts), confused the hell out of me!

The irony of the autistic person using a metaphor, and someone else taking it too literally. You have to laugh!

Sounds like what he actually said is that the market would crash if he got elected again…? Presumably he meant the opposite.

The man has never made much sense but this is absolute drivel.

KISS is great if you want something really simple that works well.

This plane needs a “No couches are left unattended in this vehicle” sticker.

And people who have no time install gentoo? Pull the other one :D

I’m not from the US so sorry if this is a dumb question, but why would this push the court leftwards for 30+ years? Wouldn’t the republicans just pack the court at the next opportunity to swing it back in their favour?

I started in 2012, and it wasn’t that difficult. I’d say I do about 30mins of maintenance every other month. It took me a while to work out the config originally, but I wrote a guide afterwards which was really popular for other people doing the same thing (it’s quite out of date now but the principles are the same).

Started out using a raspberry pi (which was also hosting a website at the time) but when I moved house to somewhere with a worse internet connection I migrated to a VPS, so there is a cost but it’s not enormous, maybe £20/month.

Don’t even bother if you can’t use a static IP, because all your email will be bounced if your PTR record for the IP (reverse DNS record) doesn’t match your domain name.

It got a bit more complicated when people started adding extra layers of spam protection like SPF, DKIM and DMARC, but those are mostly set and forget.

Overall, I’d say it’s worth it but only because I find it quite interesting/fun.

Google is unavoidable but I do my best to mitigate the worst parts of their privacy intrusions.

I have a pixel phone running grapheneOS with Google Services Framework installed but without Google Play or Gboard or any of that stuff. For me that’s a balance that works.

I host my own email server so no Gmail.

I also host my own Matrix server and avoid WhatsApp where possible (not Google but just as bad if not worse).

I use YouTube but via Newpipe or using Ublock origin on Firefox (not logged in obviously).

Chrome is genuinely worse than Firefox now that Google have made adblocking more difficult with manifest v3.

You just have to decide what the best tradeoff is between privacy and convenience.

Redreader uses the official API, they have an exception from paying (for now) because they have accessibility features that most apps including the official one lack.

You’d think they would be cool with kissing, seeing as they are all wearing Lycra already…

Doesn’t Biden have a broken foot that hasn’t healed very well and makes him shuffle around a bit?

Just a small note that the businesses only have to open source their version if they release it. If they just use it internally then they don’t have to distribute the source code. So it depends on the use case.

Have you turned off Firefox’s built-in enhanced tracking protection? If not, turn it off but leave uBlock Origin on and see if that solves your issue.

We have a while to wait before everyone has microdiamonds in their testicles, but one day we’ll get there!

Well I have to hand it to you, there’s a kind of mad logic to it!

(I think the heat is good when you ~~almost~~ feel it in your nipples.)

Sorry what?
