When my Muslim coworker told me that they didn’t use toilet paper and found it disgusting.

I later got a bidet and have never looked back.

It makes it so that if you visit another instance using their URL, it will redirect you to your home version’s federated link.

E.g. if your home server is Lemmy.world, let’s say you find a link to Lemmy on another website but it’s a link to Lemmy.ml. If you click the link, you won’t be signed in.

So like:

https://lemmy.ml/c/memes would redirect to https://lemmy.world/c/[email protected]

This way you can seamlessly use Lemmy.

Though I’m not familiar with this particular script. Scripts should be verified for security before installation.

We do it’s called ‘beehaw’

Memmy on iOS is very much like Apollo. A bit buggy but a great start.

Mlem really didn’t satisfy me.

The bidet has a hot air dryer. Truly living in the future.

I still use torrents sometimes but almost exclusively use Usenet these days. For Plex/jellyfin servers it’s pretty unbeatable.

Torrents are mostly stuff like audiobooks from audiobookbay and myanonymouse and games from repackers like Fitgirl.

I mean usenet costs money and torrents don’t.

In the past, Reddit alternatives pretty much existed only for the least savory people (i.e. nazis)

Now Reddit has caused an exodus of good users, a bit different.

To be fair a lot of people have it on TestFlight because originally that was the only way to get it.

Basically 3 good choices

ProtonVPN AirVPN IVPN

Proton has a 50% off student discount bringing the price down to $5 a month for all proton services.

IVPN is probably the best but most expensive.

Everyone online is a bot except you.

The art of the deal.

I think your goals are too big and you’re burning yourself out. As an autistic person it’s very easy to burn yourself out, very different than a neurotypical person.

I’m autistic, ‘high functioning’ but I definitely wasn’t when I was younger.

I’ve found that taking it easy is the best approach. You’re born with the innate ability to push yourself too hard. A very useful skill when running from a predator but not as useful for long term goals.

Paradoxically, focusing on how to do less will allow you to do more. Finding little shortcuts in life that over time add up.

For example, every morning I need 2 hours to putter about. Just do absolutely nothing to prepare for my day. A lot of the time, an entire day on the weekend will also be dedicated to doing aimless, random tasks.

I used to hate myself for it and just feel so useless. But now I recognize that it’s just something I have to do to function. I view it as a positive because it’s when I have some of my best ideas. Back when I used to hate myself for it, I wouldn’t have any good ideas because I was so focused on feeling bad.

Also, measure success in as many ways as possible. For example, let’s say you’re having a tough day and you get almost nothing done. That’s a win. Even though you were having a tough day, you got something done.

Remember that easy is an effort. Easy on a good day looks very different from easy on a bad day.

If you keep it easy, one day you’ll wake up and realize that easy has changed. The stuff you used to think was hard is the new easy and you’re reaching places you never thought you could.

I didn’t watch the video but you can use DNS over HTTPS in Firefox to accomplish the same thing. It’s just a setting.

Though you’ll only be protected in Firefox.

On reddit, half of the users are bots controlled by various corporations and state departments.

Kind of crazy to think that AI in games has never really evolved past this game. In many cases modern games have far worse AI than FEAR,

I’d say past security breaches are enough reason to stay away.

They don't advertise it, just message support from your .edu email and tell them your username. They'll apply it and let you use the STUDENT promo code. It's 50% off the year plan so $5 a month.

Looks seriously great. Lots of improvement. The crashing stopped and has been replaced by errors. Presumably issues with the server rather than the app.

The compact view looks slick. It would be better if clicking the thumbnail brought you directly to the image such as in apollo.

I'd also love swipe gesture for voting.

The 'new post' constantly having the url for your other brew app is pretty unwelcome. Especially in its current form where it looks like a hyperlink. If it was gray and user-typed URL text was white, it would be much more acceptable.

I mean it’s not like a VPN is providing major anonymity. We already know all the major providers are tapped. You should treat any VPN like a spy agency.

If you need anonymity, a free VPN is probably not the best place to look.

Also they could correlate your network traffic without you logging in. That is not a requirement. No matter what, any VPN is going to give some kind of unique user identifier.
