What should I change?
Anyone have thoughts on mailbox.org? I have been thinking of switching. Anyone with experience with the service?

You won: Microsoft is walking back Windows 11’s AI overload — scaling down Copilot and rethinking Recall in a major shift
I am kinda glad they went to shit so quickly. If it were slow, I probably would never have gone fully Linux. Now, I have all 5 of my machines free of corporate spyware. I am having fun again configuring and learning. Thanks microslop! I needed the push.

What did a teacher do that earned your respect?
Taught a concept in class incorrectly then fixed his mistake. When I studied the material after learning it the way he explained and found the correct information though other material, I emailed the professor. He wanted to meet me after our next class. This was initially to show me that I was wrong and to clear up my misunderstanding. He saw where I was going and we went to the lab to test it. We proved that I was right, admitted he had tought it the wrong way for years and said he would change his lesson. The next class, he returned to the subject and correctly explained the concept. Later I worked on a big research project with him as my advisor. He expected a lot and was tough, but we had mutual respect and that made the work fun.

I want to recommend that you change your WiFi password. Even though you disabled the internet, it may still phone home.

What is that random movie that you watched multiple times throughout your childhood only because your family happened to own it's DVD (or VHS) ?
VHS - Howard the Duck
I still quote that movie and I am convinced not a single person I have ever met has seen it.

Jellyseerr has been a game changer. Uses the same user logins as jellyfin and you can set different preferences for each user. There is also an issue tracker. Just right for my purposes.

I just watched The Substance. Holy fuck. What did i just watch?
I absolutely loved this movie. The ending gave me real Society (1989) vibes. I can't get enough of practical effects and body horror. A true gem of our time.

Have you ever cried over a celebrity or complete strangers death, why?
Stephen Hawking. His books gave me a sense of wonder in high school. Those books are a huge part of what inspired my path in life. When I read he had died, I felt a peice of me leave the earth. I cried for humanity, I felt that we all got a bit dumber, as a whole.

Wouldn't that be something if that is also the day that SteamOS and HL3 comes out? One can dream.
