Palestine / Hamas.

Who are all being willfully dismissive and are faniliar with emai, so…

It isn’t tough at all, and anyone who says the concept is can’t wrap their mind around it is either a Luddite or is willfully dismissive.

The really high tech nonces have starting using TLS

I’m aware those referenced in the article are almost certainly not doing this, but for clarity’s sake SimpleX can be self hosted.

Could be that both taillights / brake lights were out. Seems super unlikely, but I have seen someone driving on the highway with both taillights burnt out, headlights on.

Probably hard to realize they’re out until someone lets you know / pulls you over.

Fedora. Specifically I’ve been using Silverblue recently, very stable system for me.

Using Fedora Sway Atomic has been the most consistent Linux experience I’ve had.

Yeah, my parents are perfect, my grandparents are like ~80% there. One side is a bit religious conservative (thankfully anti-Trump), and the other side’s grandfather has an odd idea that all black people naturally don’t want to work. Other than that one sentiment, he isn’t racist in the slightest, but he insists that’s the case.

This is what I use (with zsh):

yt-audio() {
	   yt-dlp --no-playlist -f 'ba' -x --audio-format mp3 $1
}
yt-audio-playlist() {
	   yt-dlp -f 'ba' -x --audio-format mp3 $1
}

It takes the best quality available and downloads it to mp3.

I do exactly this for downloading music, I aliased my preferred options to ‘yt-audio’

I think any math teacher who sees you tattooed a formula on yourself and doesn’t let you look at it is an absolute dickhead. (Assuming the dickhead won’t allow formula sheets)

I dont know what they’re on about with Mitchell.

(Jackie Mitchell struck out Babe Ruth and Lou Gherig in 1931 and was kicked out of the league a month later)

This lacks SO much context, it was an EXHIBITION match and she never played in the MLB, she played in the minors. Anyone reading that would assume she struck out two greats in a real game and was banned by the MLB.

There’s a lot of truth to she shooting thing, that should absolutely be co-ed.

However, my point still stands: women and men should be separated if the sport has a physical component to its competition. (i.e. any sort of contact.)

Well I hope the goals you’re working towards are achieved and end up being fulfilling to you. Not religious personally but I think Jainism is a pretty apt comparison to how I feel about this, seriously, good luck!

This is embarrassing, I hate it when people don’t capitalize their ‘i’s :’)

i don’t! (although ‘dont’ does peeve me sometimes)

Productivity is completely unrelated to success imo. The only thing that matters is that you’re happy with yourself and your life, maybe productivity is not what brings you joy?

even though i might indulge in activities that are pleasurable for me now, they add up to nothing

Those activities are just as valid as a productive activity, especially if they make you happier. Being productive is great, but I feel productive activities should never take precedence over non-productive ones simply because they’re productive. Do what you have to do, but never sacrifice your own happiness at the altar of forward progress.

+1, displaying in a Emacs buffer solves any issues I could have. If you’re already ‘in’ Emacs, this will be more frictionless than shell scripts around man

💀 by far the worst part of netflix, if its in the search suggestions I should be able to watch it

Matrix is definitely closer to Discord / a platform built for communities.

SimpleX is not P2P, as I understand it messages are forwarded through a random(?, at least varying) number of servers, so no server knows the sender and recipient. The main issue it attempts to solve is a complete lack of a persistent identifier. Your “account” does not have a single address you can be messaged on (you can create ephemeral ones). You can create a new identity for each person you message, meaning you don’t have to trust the people you’re messaging to keep your messaging account’s ‘identity’ secure.

I also really like how easy it is to route through proxies (esp on Android)

Dino on Linux and Conversations for Android are both amazing clients imo, but the rest I’ve tried are SEVERELY lacking. Especially on iOS.

I personally think the future from a technological perspective is SimpleX Chat. Fixes so many issues that plague other private IMs, however I’m waiting to switch until I see that their venture capital strategy is actually sustainable and won’t enshittify it.

I’d say its better, but not perfect.
