“nearly” is, by definition, not.

I only cook for myself so most recipes end up going in the fridge or freezer since they make more than 1 serving. I don’t like eating the same meal twice in one day but I don’t mind eating the same meal every day, so as long as I have 3 distinct meals in rotation each day I’m fine. If that number drops to 2 or 1 then I get cooking again.

gofundme is very strict so if theyre on gfm theyre either legit or you’d be refunded if not.

Keep in mind people in Gaza usually have English as a second/third/etc language, or don’t speak English at all, so often use templates to make their fundraisers. And obviously machine translation too.

Yes it is difficult to get money into Gaza but it does happen. I have a friend who evacuated in 2024 and he’s talked quite a bit about how it works; his friends and family who are still there do occasionally receive money from outside which lets them buy the extremely expensive vegetables and flour.

First I’ve heard of em dashes being an “AI” thing. Aren’t LLMs trained on human-generated text? They wouldn’t be outputting em dashes if humans didn’t also output em dashes.

…I can’t think of a “privacy-focused code editor” because code editors are generally not known for having telemetry/tracking/anything privacy-invasive in the first place? A “privacy-respecting” code editor is just a normal one. Use whatever you like. Vim is great. Maybe Kate if you want a GUI.

I suppose it’s targeted towards getting people who fall for these scams to get onto Linux. At least they’d probably fall victim to fewer tech scams if the scammer doesn’t know how to deal with Linux.

There was one question where it wouldn’t let me do this. I think the media streaming question I had to click “Other”.

Never used a dashboard… I just manage my services on the cli with plain docker commands.

What really? I thought the screenshot looked like electron/web app slop but I was like, maybe they’ve just gone for a “modern” gtk/qt theme. It’s actually just a Firefox PWA?

That sounds like an awful idea lmao. I would never.

ID requirement is terrible for everyone but that especially seems like you’re limiting this to citizens or at least people who have managed to get appropriate immigration documents, which is a difficult and obstructive process that many migrants haven’t got yet. Plus a lot of countries make it hard to get ID without a fixed address.

It looks like a honeypot, and wtf is a “private cell network”? How are they gonna do that? SMS and phone calls aren’t E2EE

I suppose that begs the question of whether or not privacy (as used by this community) inherently means private in the colloquial sense, like the way a diary is private. Because to me, a e.g. public static website with no kind of profiling of its users is privacy-respecting, but obviously not private in the colloquial sense—it’s a public resource.

I do use SMS sometimes and I use it strictly for things that I’m happy to be basically public. Same for using other protocols like unencrypted email.

A stock smartphone is also locked in to mandatory telemetry, like a stock dumbphone. The practical difference is that there’s a much smaller community for installing custom FOSS OSes onto dumbphones compared to smartphones.

I prefer paper books when I can afford them as I find it easier to focus when I have a physical book to hold. And it just feels like a nicer experience.

I think you’re conflating security with privacy. Not that they are unrelated, but something can be e.g. unencrypted but lack telemetry.

Not that dumbphones are inherently private, but I don’t think they’re less private either. They’re just what you use if you have no need for all the smartphone functions.

Watchtower for automated updates. For containers that don’t have a latest tag to track, editing the version number manually and then docker compose pull && docker compose up -d is simple enough.

I use catgirl

Yes, if you use the “task list” block. You can also have checkbox bullet points but I don’t use them, not really sure what the use-case for those are when you can just use the task list.

I self-host Notesnook and found it easy to set up. Been using it as my main note-taking app for years now and I’m really happy with it.

Someone who’s in the business of stealing computers would just stick it in a faraday bag. I guess for an entire server you’d need a sizeable cage though.

If you want a gui editor maybe Kate?
