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.
Now? They literally haven’t been Worth fishing out of the couch instead of just vacuuming up and toss the lot for years.
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.
Top ten answers on the board; we asked 100 users “How will Canva cover the costs of the software development if Affinity is free?”
Every Minecraft update just makes me hum “Where’s the modding API” again.
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.
Just going to second this because I had to complain about the process being a pain here on Lemmy, which earned a lot of upvotes, before someone asked how I used the software center and I said the same as the Microsoft Store which was to say not at all. The number of downvotes told me I was way off and I needed to give it a fresh look.
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.

Good tip!
I was reading their FAQ section and they suggest marking, stamping, or otherwise defacing a book to lower its resale value. A line of marker down the spine won’t ruin the reading, but will make it hard to sell.
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.
If you buy their TV bar unit, apparently you can pair the two to cover longer tables. The people in the back are covered by the table unit and the front is covered by the bar.
I know this from reading knowledge base articles because no organization I’ve ever been apart of ever wanted to spend the money on a good system that covered everything properly, so I have never had the chance to do it.
No, but it is breaking wind.
This technique is often referred to as “over, under” as apposed to the more common “over, over” because it prevents damage or cable memory from twisting in one direction. Frequently used in the audio/video industry.
The biggest downside is that if you pass the end of the cable through the middle of the bundle you will create a knot every other loop. These can quickly be unknotted by gathering the knots together in line and passing an end back through. Also makes a decent magic trick.
A cable tie, hook-and-loop fastener, or a piece of rope or tie-line with a clove hitch in the middle is essential to secure cables while in transit or storage.
I’m speculating, but it wouldn’t change a thing. You would still need to request domain addresses from a server somewhere, but traffic between your device and server would be encrypted in transit. The DNS server would also be verifiable to prevent imitators.
So, the request would go to the PiHole and if it was not being filtered the PiHole would make the request of whatever upstream server is configured same as before.
Useless display in refrigerators finally revealed as corporate ploy to install billboard in consumer’s kitchens.
I’ve been watching videos of this game for a bit and it is one of the better designed spooky games I’ve seen. The constant, random happenings keep it interesting; the simple loop of capturing signals and sending them of keeps things moving.
I tried watching some big youtubers play it, but found that I enjoyed this guy with like 300 subscribers more. Syndrick on YouTube.
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.
Can’t wait for the group that leverages this for some chaotic good. Reconstruct movements of political figures? Track squad cars for a real-time map of what areas are safest for crime? Really flip the surveillance state around and see how it feels to be in the other end of the camera.
