It’s also “heat” and “duck” combined.

We joke a lot because what is happening in the US is really scary.

Ubuntu minus snaps plus a better DE? Mint.

Then sell it to a demolition derby show.

Green tomatoes fried in bacon fat? Sounds pretty good to me.

My first (and still my favorite) thing I designed from scratch is my Happy Mug.

My wife and I both have Android phones, and in Ente, all new photos are automatically added to a “Camera” album. So we share those with each other, and that gives us access to everything we need. Hopefully they eventually do partner sharing (it’s possible with E2EE, I’m guessing it just wasn’t super high on the priority list).

I switched to Ente a little while ago. It has E2EE as well as facial recognition (which is done locally on a device). In my initial usage, it does seem to match faces decently, but I haven’t tried it for other stuff yet. Might be worth a look.

If you want, you can buy the early access pass to all of my comments. For $60USD, I’ll send you all of my rambling and error-riddled comments before they’re made available to the public.

Check out GetSimple. It’s a flat file system (so no database to mess with) and can run with just basic PHP (though it’ll guide you through installing modules if you want fancy urls, etc). Super easy to set up. I’ve been using it for years without a hitch.

I had a buddy in culinary school. He apparently used a ton of them, especially when practicing knife work.

I have no strong feelings one way or the other.

It’s not dumb to feel sad about it. Enshittification is sad, especially when you see it from the inside.

I’ve learned I should be more tolerant of lactose.

I’m not sure about the focus on privacy, but DreamHost has been pretty reliable for me. I have my custom domain routed to Proton for email (got a two year plan before all the politics came out… blarg).

Hmm, probably several possibilities.

• Trans folks establishing their identity, finding relief from the depression brought on by dysphoria
• Cases of domestic abuse
• Cases of stalking or other harassment
• Witness protection (as another commenter mentioned)

Probably others?

Beelink Mini PCs or ones like that, plus a wireless keyboard/trackpad combo.

I did, but I already paid for two years (plus did a bunch of work to migrate files over). So I’ll be here for a bit.

I switched to Proton about 6 months ago.

Wish I had waited. Ah well.
