Somnolent?
- Comment on People who reject challenging ideas as stupid without engagement are like intellectual nepobabies 1 week ago:
You also don’t have to believe everything “your thought produces”. It’s very common to have thoughts that are tied to old patterns of thinking, rather than new ones you are cultivating. For example, many of us have internalized racist or transphobic attitudes. Through life, learning and experience we have come to change our minds. However, we can’t help that sometimes we have a reactive thought based in our old conditioning. You don’t simply ignore such thoughts, you address them rationally. Over time, they diminish. This is part of growth.

That’s also why you should keep some other delicious snacks handy. Sometimes you start feeling good and crave another brownie :)

I replace 'em every other fire.
- Comment on DVDs are the new vinyl records: Why Gen Z is embracing physical media 1 week ago:
My wife is “xennial” and her music tastes skew younger. Lots of younger artists are selling cassettes and CDs at their merch tables. We have more tapes and discs in our house than I ever had in the 90s.

Electricity is one of those subjects that will forever remain a mystery to me.
- Comment on You ever wake up and question, "am i the bad guy"? 1 week ago:
It’s gotten better for me as I age. Just learn to accept yourself, flaws and all. Try to talk to yourself the way you would talk to a friend having the same feelings.

They aren’t even that smart. They’re just self-obsessed, greedy, pedophiles.

- Comment on 2 weeks ago:
I don’t remember exactly why, but I couldn’t get it to work any other way. First problem was incoming port 80 blocked by my ISP.
- Comment on 2 weeks ago:
I have used (and loved) Yunohost for a long time, and I host it at home. A few years back, I did set up a vps to proxy the traffic (over wireguard) so that I could actually get a letsencrypt cert. Some apps really don’t like self-signed certs.

This dude also has some solid videos on flock (and other things). Everyone should know that cities and towns are kicking flock out left and right. Use this momentum to organize against them in your town too!

Hey grok, what’s the most efficient, yet emotionally satisfying way to liquidate our class of parasitic, pedophilic billionaires. Extra points for style!

- Comment on BentoPDF is a self hostable, privacy first PDF Toolkit 2 months ago:
Thanks for this! I saw this post yesterday, and decided to check it out. I installed it locally on my laptop, and am evaluating it for work. If I recommend it for use, we’ll get a license :).
Since the idea would be to replace Adobe for non-Pro (and maybe some Pro accounts), ease of use for low-tech users is at the front of my mind. Not being able to “set as default” for PDFs is not ideal, but I understand the limitation comes from running in the browser. Is there some way to open the PDF, and then choose which tool to use? Rather than how it seems now: choose the tool/function, then upload the PDF.

- Comment on Creating apps like Signal or WhatsApp could be 'hostile activity,' claims UK watchdog 2 months ago:
Pervasive surveillance is a hostile act. Abetting genocide and other crimes against humanity is a hostile act. Serving the rich at the expense of the poor is a hostile act.
- Comment on Where can I learn about networking? 2 months ago:
How I learned the most was building a home server and figuring out all the problems along the way. LAN, WAN, VPN, iptables, DNS…
- Comment on at what point in life it's too late to go back to school? 2 months ago:
For sure. I was in a dying industry, and now I have the makings of a career. I would say: have a goal, map out the steps it will take to achieve it, then take the first steps!
- Comment on at what point in life it's too late to go back to school? 2 months ago:
I went back to school in my 40s and changed careers.
- Comment on Solutions for remote access? 2 months ago:
I do your second suggestion. I have a cheap ($5/mo) vps from digital ocean that proxies all the traffic to/from my home server via wireguard. There’s a few tutorials out there that explain how to configure iptables to forward traffic from one network interface to another on the vps.
