But better for your pronunciation of new words.

If your recipes are formatted like markdown, then there are offline notes apps like Obsidian. The new issue becomes keeping your files backed up in case of whatever, and that’s when the self hosted server comes into play. This is a really good usecase for synching which can keep your small recipes files duplicated on your phone and your computer without ever leaving your network.

I tried to set up some services last year and had some trouble getting immich to work through networking. The answer was tailscale. This past Christmas holidays I got nextcloud and immich up. I use nextcloud for my audiobooks and large files I want to keep but not on my phone. Immich for pictures and synching for small files I want synced often like my epub book arks and highlights and Obsidian notes vault.

Ok, but-- even once you transition to a new service the old addresses are embedded in all kinds of places, user forums, documentation, git commits, etc. Just setting up and using a different service doesn’t make that go away.

Just got a retro handheld for a gift. Package looked a little suspicious with no way to tell if it had ever been opened. SD card reader broken. Sad to return it a few days before Christmas with no chance at replacing in time.

I don’t think the public key is going to help that end user recover the message.

- Comment on How do i get my nails to stop stinking faster 2 months ago:
Give it a minute or two, wave around to shake the drops off and then lightly feel to make sure it’s not tacky. Im pretty impatient, so sometimes I don’t wait long enough.
I learned a lot from this set of instructions and the tips at the end. Especially capping/sealing and base coats. They’re talking about nail wraps – which I love – but I have use the same techniques with just normal color as well and had a lot more success.

I see some people mentioned gel. I have never successfully used gel, I’m just aware there are extra steps and a light or something to cure, but if you find that the polish is taking longer than 5 minutes per coat to be dry enough to pet the kitties, then you might have a gel polish. Those really require the light to cure (if I’m understanding correctly).

Believe it or not-- ice bath will set them faster. Also, recommend thinner costs and let each dry before the next.
