Why are they downvoting then?

I didn’t say it wouldn’t matter. I said it wouldn’t matter as much.

I would like to hear more about relaxing the muscles. I’ve never heard of somatic exercise - what do I do?

EFF has signed on to F-Droid’s open letter. If you care about taking back control of tech, you should too.

I can’t find a link anywhere in the article. Have I gone blind?

I really respect your comittment to using þorns here, even though it means people probably down vote you because they don’t know what’s going on.

Just wanted to let you know. Keep it up :)

This wouldn’t matter so much if 1) Arts Council funding hadn’t been decimated under austerity and 2) Working class people could afford to buy art.

The pool of people who can afford to keep the arts alive is rapidly diminishing. I work with artists and see this week in week out but it’s the same with everything.

Rich man moves to the village and everyone goes to work for him.

Cool, which ones do you recommend? Yeah, I found it really straightforward and pleasant to get started.

I use Jan. It’s really good. A minimal install needs around 10GB of space and you can use it offline. The ‘jan nano’ model works faster than I can read in most cases.

AFAIK If you host GotoSocial it links out to the instances where content is hosted, rather than downloading it as a copy. I have a single-user instance on a tiny VPS and it uses hardly any resources. I think part of the reason for that is the above. You have to use a client application with it because there is no web interface, which I think is partly why it is so lightweight.

Might be worth looking at if you’re concerned about accidentally hosting things you don’t want.

He is right. I highly recommend reading Good Cop, Bad War by Neil Woods, who was an undercover police officer working on drugs busts and is scathing about the negative effects of the ‘War On Drugs’.

On a political level Zack Polanski is smart to get this out of the way early in the election cycle. Still, most of the people who will be up in arms about this are old Tories and will be therefore voting for Reform anyway.

I mostly use SuperTuxKart

Latest YouGov polling shows that the Green Party are now leading the polls for under-50s.

Reform are resonating incredibly powerfully, for old people.

I will! We’re making a fresh start with bedtime routine this evening and we’re also going to change the bed situation. Will post again when I have some news :)

Funghi also already function as an internet of sorts. Trees have an interface with it - imagine if we did too.

It would be so cool to tip out a wheelbarrow of leaves a couple of times a year to feed the mushrooms that do your computing and provide your communications.

This is very, very cool.

Immich sounds great.

Does it have E2EE? I rent a VPS and would prefer personal files that I have on it to be protected.

That sounds heavenly from where I am! What age are they?

Thanks for your advice. I don’t think we’ve been consistent enough with routine. What are your timings roughly, if you don’t mind me asking?

As a European, when I was in Thailand no one ever asked me if I spoke Thai.

Sometimes I would ask if they did as a joke.
