if you’re satisfied with your existing comments function, can you simply enable comments on your ‘contact’ page and hide them from public view?
I was also struggling with DNS issues all day so this is what I am putting in place for now. Yah, good enough is good enough. Thanks for the idea.

Not quite what I need, but thanks

OK, that’s amazing but also probably more than I need. My form just has like three fields. But thanks for the idea.

Not sure about goog results but I love my SearxNG service. Works well, fast enough for me.
- Comment on The Authoritarian Stack 1 week ago:
I’m no expert, but the issue here seems to be replacing many smaller contracts with one big one for Palantir. I. E., one agenda headed in one dark direction.
But what do I know?
- Comment on What is a good self-hosted solution for sharing files with friends? 2 weeks ago:
You can consider using a Pikapods service for this. It’s dead simple to strand up a server when you need one.
https://www.pikapods.com/apps#storage
They have Gokapi and/or PrivateBin for just about a buck per month. You can turn the service on and off whenever you like. Good company to work with, IME, too.

In the 80s I learned in schools. (no no no face)
In 2005 I got my news from The Daily Show. (curious face)
In 2025, I learn about Science from @fossilesque@mander.xyz on piefed/lemmy. (WWE guy mind blown! )

- Comment on cox-zucker 1 month ago:
Just gonna leave us wondering about the algorithm, eh?
In arithmetic geometry, the Cox–Zucker machine is an algorithm created by David A. Cox and Steven Zucker. This algorithm determines whether a given set of sections[further explanation needed] provides a basis (up to torsion) for the Mordell–Weil group of an elliptic surface E → S, where S is isomorphic to the projective line.
Or was that just me?

Does dockge count as a dashboard?
‘Cause I use that to quickly check on what’s running, what’s stopped. Then I do most of my mainenance in a terminal, via SSH to the server.
- Comment on Watch first, then wipe: Some China’s restrooms put toilet paper behind paywall 1 month ago:
Ha! :) I never heard that before but that does make sense. I remember my American grandma hoarded supplies like this her whole life, long after the lean depression-era years she lived through. Every single pencil was used down to the nub. We got a serious talking-to if we tossed a milk bottle with more than a drop left in it.
- Comment on Watch first, then wipe: Some China’s restrooms put toilet paper behind paywall 1 month ago:
It really varies. I just did a big tour of China in June and we saw many fancy, futuristic toilets in malls and hotels. We saw somewhat stinky but otherwise clean public toilets at parks and such. And we came across a couple of holes in the floor with a septic tank below ground, exposed to the air - and no TP provided. Those are rare now, from what I saw. (Septic tank was the word I couldn’t think of before) I’m no plumber though so I may be getting that word wrong still.
- Comment on Watch first, then wipe: Some China’s restrooms put toilet paper behind paywall 1 month ago:
Many are just ‘squatty potties’ - is a hole in the floor and a tank below.
And yah, tourists are told to bring TP already since some bathrooms don’t have any.

Everyone loves Psychonauts 1 (including me so much) until they get to the Meat Circus level. That one level can shit and fall back in it, IMO.
