Probably because middle class straight white men are often very exclusionary.

Not really. The second amendment is about states protecting themselves from the federal government. That’s why it’s talking about militias, not lone gunmen.

I have no intention of giving up the fight and fleeing. If progressives who can leave do, those who can’t are doomed to a Republican hellscape.

That’s made from plants, including trees, but that’s not really what I’m talking about.

Don’t forget committing felonies. A convicted felon and rapist was shot at today.

It’s a great opportunity to open a conversation about gun control.

We burn different kinds of wood under our food to make it taste like that wood. Mesquite, apple, hickory, all come to mind. Wood smells really good.

We can consume it, but we can’t digest it.

It might turn into dumb skynet though. Like a version of skynet that does malicious things, but not because it’s trying to hurt people, just because it’s really stupid and we put it in charge of things.

That’s generally not what they’re really concerned about. “I don’t want teachers teaching my children to be gay” is just code for, “I don’t want teachers teaching my children that it’s ok to be gay.”

The more users you have, the more expensive it is to run.

Like, compute, storage, bandwidth, none of that is free. If you’re providing a free service, like Wikipedia, and you have many millions of users, like Wikipedia, your expenses will be enormous. You can either accept donations, like Wikipedia, require payment, or sell your users.

If there’s something you like that’s free online, support them. If they don’t accept donations, well, I hate to tell you, you’re the product.

Imagine seeing the Lincoln Memorial and thinking, “so Lincoln was actually 25 feet tall! Wow!”

After a lot of work (cause I’m new to it), I published my first Docker image!

Nephele is an open source WebDAV server written by yours truly. I’ve been using it for about a year now on my own home server. It basically acts as my self hosted cloud storage and all of my PCs and my family’s PCs back up to it. It’s FOSS, so use it for your own project. :)

When you're talking to an open source dev, just remember that they are literally giving you their time for free, and they are people who don't like to be treated poorly.

Edit: Just to be clear, I don’t mean any ill will toward the guy. He’s frustrated and he’s just taking it out in the wrong venue at the wrong people, but that doesn’t mean he’s a bad person.

Edit 2: The reinstalling he’s talking about is NPM. So just running npm install. It’s because he tried removing the node_modules directory, which is a reasonable thing to do, but it means you need to reinstall the modules with that command.

I spent two hours today trying to figure out why Nextcloud couldn’t read my data directory. Docker wasn’t mounting my data directory. Moved everything into my data directory. Docker couldn’t even see the configuration file.

Turns out the Docker Snap package only has access to files under the /home directory.

Moral of the story: never trust a Snap package.

It now supports unlimited size transfers. Have a 24GB Blu-ray rip to back up? Go for it! A 1TB disk image? You got it!

Hi, I’m Hunter Perrin, and I made a new email service called Port87.

Gmail was a great email service back in 2006, but now it just sucks. They put ads in your inbox that look like unread emails to trick you into clicking them. To me, that means Gmail is malware.

I’ve been degoogling my life for the past 7 years, and Gmail is the last Google service I depended on. I love ProtonMail and use it too, but I developed a new way to sort email automatically, and wanted to write my own service based on it.

Port87 lets you use a tagged address like [email protected], and that automically creates a “netflix” label and puts all email to that address in it. This helps keep your email organized automatically, and protects against spam and phishing.

The database abstraction library I wrote for Port87 is called Nymph.js, and it’s open source. Also the UI library I wrote is called Svelte Material UI, and it’s open source too.

I hope you all like it, and hopefully it can help migrate away from Gmail.

Port87 is an email service that automatically organizes your email based on the "To" address.

If you give the address "[email protected]" to Netflix, then all of their email will go in the "netflix" label in your account. This lets you organize your email when you give out your email address. It also prevents phishing, since an email from "Bank of America" in your "netflix" label is obviously phishing.

Labels meant for human senders, like the "friends" label ([email protected]), can be set to screen senders, so Port87 will respond to any new senders with a link to click to prove they're a human.

Your "bare address" ([email protected]) only responds to emails with a list of your public label addresses, so you can share it all over the internet without fearing spam. (For example, mine is [email protected].)

Full disclosure: I created and operate this service.

Once loaded in the app, the screen goes black and you cannot do anything.

It started happening with a comment, so it’s not the post itself, but some comment on the post.

I already use Firefox for browsing normally, but I have to test on a Chromium based browser too. One soft requirement is that it should be installable with Flatpak on Linux.

Warning: I’m not joking and there’s no way to get out without force quitting Voyager.

This just started today. It will flash when I scroll, but it usually stays disappeared once I stop scrolling. I tried rebooting the app, but it’s still happening.
