Well hell yeah, I just had instance to check and it does indeed offer the option!

I don’t want to naysay you, but I have yet to see that in practice. Is that fairly recently added or in an upcoming release that isn’t on F-Droid yet? I’d love to know more!

I’ve been using the Fossify messenger for a while it is is largely fine. It does not offer proper reaction support, showing “🤣 to ‘MESSAGE’” or some such, and it doesn’t offer to copy authentication codes from a notification. Other than that, it works well.

It’s been my experience that the areas most often referred to as “bad parts of town” are the areas with the most people squeezed in without consideration for anything else. Small homes can be fine of there are other outlets in the area such as community centers, parks, libraries, stores, etc. Without those you just concentrate too much human suffering in one area.

Here’s what you do: get a bike rack and bungee core a milk crate to it. Bonus points for a milk crate that looks well worn and like it lived an entire lifetime before it took up residence on your bike. The look is timeless, a classic of style, unquestionable. From there you can store anything you want, hat included.

Or don’t. You wouldn’t ask a stranger on the street for their opinion, so why care what they think?

Cutting toxicity out if my life in general.

I’ve blocked, unsubscribe, and filtered most email. I’ve completely reduced my physical mail to nothing because I don’t need spam every day. I’ve cut out ads on my devices, I don’t need to be constantly manipulated by companies. Speaking of, I left Windows like 2 years ago and it’s been great. I also filtered most news out of my life because it enrages me and I don’t need that stress.

My ability to zone out and get lost in my head is legendary.

Although, I have used headphones for grocery shopping during busy times because music helps keep me from becoming enraged at stupid people.

So, the minimum number of anything you can order would be zero fingers or 1…

I find Blue Sky gained a lot of the artists that left Twitter. Many post freely, post commissioned works, or have a donation or subscription based platform to share work on. Discovery is ass, but many repost or comment on other artists so you can find a lot of similarly interesting creators that way.

This is the key. You are not required to engage with the rage. Block people, block communities, block instances! Curate your mood and don’t give space in it to things that will poison it.

Removes from cart

Good tip!

My favorite was when an update would change, hide, or remove a feature I had never heard of that was absolutely critical to one person’s workflow for an essential task that affected everyone, like payroll.

Where I am from local governments have disposal policies for surplus items. This can be seized property, vehicles, office supplies, and computers. Or may be worth researching how your local area handles disposal because I’ve seen pallets of computers go cheap.

That sounds more like the intended use of a hot tub.

Gives a number.

“Why is it going to take so long?”

My knowledge is limited, but I recall hearing that more seizures are caused by smells than flashing lights. Based off that single fact, perhaps the thing that was triggering you isn’t present anymore. Be that person, perfume, or otherwise.

You beautiful fucking genius! I’ve been looking at trying to get a Lemmy patch embroidered, but it was going to be like $200 for the first and it got cheaper the more I bought. Instead of doing that I can just print one out on my brothers printer instead!

Can you learn truths from fiction? Can you feel sad at a happy memory? Can you long for a person who wronged you? Can a good point he made by a bad person? Why does the source matter?

And when they doesn’t work, install a fresh copy of Windows on new hardware in a sperate location within another dimension.

I run AdGuard as an addon to Home Assistant. If you want to stick to AdGuard you can go to Settings > Client Settings and set a per-client filtering rule. There is a tab in the client settings that can be used to filter specific services with a click. Setting an IP reservation for your child’s device in the DHCP settings of Unifi or your router will help ensure the IP address stays consistent.

For the PiHole option, you don’t actually have to let the PiHole handle DHCP. You just need to tell your DHCP server what DNS server to use. For example, my router is .1 and my Raspberry PI is .2. The DHCP server, my router, tells all devices .1 is the gateway and .2 is the DNS server. You may also need to set these settings on the individual devices to prevent them from ignoring your DNS settings, but that can be done from the network settings. Avast had some safe networking “feature” that would force my DNS settings to be ignored, same with my Android phone.

Of course, the downside to all of this is that any different device, different IP, device from a friend, or mobile data could bypass these restrictions. You may soon be in an arms race with your child and chances are they can get more clever that you can in a shorter time frame.
