I use Oracle fo No Lastname Needed, and it works well (although I have out grown the free tier), but I would NOT recommend them for a newbie to hosting as it’s a very complex eco-system compared to just a cheap VPS
- Comment on [JS Required] EU unveils DNS4EU, a public DNS resolver intended as a European alternative to services like Google’s Public DNS and Cloudflare’s DNS. 2 weeks ago:
I was wondering about some of the fuckery around piracy in the EU atm:
This project provides the European Commission with no means of censorship. Furthermore, this would be against the goals of the project, which aims to strengthen digital sovereignty. The EU will not have access to configuration, data, etc. On top of that, DNS4EU will not be forced on anyone. It will merely abide to local regulations required of internet service provider. In other words, DNS4EU is not a way toward censorship, but actually toward data protection and better internet security and sovereignty for Europeans.

@abobla@lemm.ee Just out of curiosity I chucked some od your lemmy comments into a prompt on chatGPT. It sommerised ‘you’ in a few seconds - much faster than I could be bothered to do otherwise and came to this conclusion:
abobla seems to be a tech-savvy user with a strong interest in Linux, open-source software, and internet culture. They enjoy informal, humorous conversation but also value constructive technical discussion. They’re engaged in the community, appreciative of good tools and helpful comments, and mindful of their social presence.
The most scary part is this gem at the end:

How are things done there on the other side of the world? Do you move your bees to fields with these flowers
Rewarewa is a early bush/forest crop that we move the hives to, then they get moved off to Manuka

I currently have these meads going:
- ginger and clover honey

You have had some really good replies so far.
In the mountains realty could mean anything
- I’ve done winter camping in snow - in the mountains
- I’ve done summer camping (in snow, shit can go sideways) - in the mountains
- I’ve done subtropical camping - in the mountains
- I’ve done temperate camping - in the mountains
- I’ve done 90 mph wind camping - in the mountains
- I’ve also done some absolutely drop dead breathtaking camping in the mountains
As others have said, beperpaired for it to be colder than you expect.
Are you walking / hiking in, or car?
Enjoy it

Not really sure of the question.
on my smaller batched I will normally use just a single full dose, anything above 15-20 l I split it
- Comment on Happy little bugs 1 month ago:
no the honey wasn’t wet, in fact it was a bit on the dry side (was recovered from a plastic pallet that wet honey had leaked onto - not that clean so couldn’t go into the batch). Being on the dry side it was hard to get to fully dissolve - thus the est on the OG.
It was 5L of honey and I used the GotMead calc. I’m not too worried if it’s on the upper end of a starting OG and it stays a little on the sweet side.
For fermentation time, I’m in no hurry and I expect it will sit in primary for the next 3 or 4 weeks.
I’ll probably give it a second dose of firmaid tomorrow

- Comment on Adding flavours to extract. 2 months ago:
It’s what I brew.
Very easy to add botanicals, fruit or even spices to get something very easy to brew and drink.
I currently have a hopped mead and a ginger mead brewing, the ginger one is my current goto
- about 1.8kg of light colour/flavoured honey (currently using a lotus major)
- somewhere between 100g and 200g of grated root ginger
- make to 5l
- add champagne style yeast and nutrients
