Louis Rossman is awesome, he has been fighting for right to repair for years now and runs a computer repair shop. He's shifted in recent years to championing right to repair around the US.

No, VPNs are helpful if you want to appear as if you are browsing from another country or if you need to hide your traffic from your isp or wifi provider. It does not provide you additional security through encryption or anything like that, your traffic is already encrypted through https. Tom Scott has a great video on it.
I know! Why would they do that to themselves!
I know, it's disgusting. I had an argument with a friend saying that all companies are greedy so why would you expect reddit to be different... I mean yeah if you just let them walk all over you that's what's gonna happen.
Idk if I want to get back to a post I'll usually do it through my own comments. When I'm looking at my feed I want new posts.
What's the difference between kbin and Lemmy? I thought they were just different instances of the same open source project with different host names.
I was tired one morning and fell for one :(
If someone had cured cancer they would be busy raking in cash. Our healthcare system sucks in a lot of ways but it does reward innovation with fat stacks.
It's definitely possible, I've been shifting to more PvE and single player games. I'm finishing up atomic heart right now and I really like it. I'd also absolutely recommend trying to join a company in the outdoor industry. It's insane what counts as outdoor equipment. Besides the normal stuff grills, smokers and for some reason crocks count. Most of the time it's 30-45% off.
Nice! I'm a dev too, I'm a gamer and I'd previously been a gymnast so I didn't have much time / respect yet for the outdoors. I recently signed on with a company in the outdoor industry doing devops and I've been taking advantage of my industry discount and picking up more outdoor hobbies. I definitely still like video games but I've found they just make me mad recently. I'm really enjoying spending more time outside and having other things to do in my free time.
That's awesome! Congratulations on being fully out! I went to university in Canada but come from the states so I had to leave alot of friends behind. I'm trying to figure out how to both keep in touch with my uni friends and meet new ppl at my hometown. I've done well enough at work but I need to do a better job talking to people at bars and stuff. I also ended out having a pretty quiet Uber driver who I managed to get talking and is in a fairly similar situation, then I sent him off with my pretty toasted buddy... Hopefully no issues there haha.
Honestly, this clears so much up for me :). It's the only reasonable assumption, it's gotta be a masochism thing haha.
