I used to use typing.com, but for the last two layouts I learned, just keybr. It adds keys slowly, and makes sure you “level up” to more keys in a uniform way.

Hitler particle detector hasn’t registered levels this high yet

I use ReadYou too! I did set up a FreshRSS backend though, because it was pretty easy to set up, and sync my read’s everywhere.

Now its not just the carriers now get your texts unencrypted, apple and google do too.

Use matrix, XMPP, or simpleX if you want something private.

I wouldn’t trust RCS even through a VPN. Its still going through carriers AFAIK, which means they get it in plain text.

I use this, and I encourage everyone to support the dev.

Its so multi-purpose, and its syncing is so solid, that I use it as a calendar and bookmark sync also.

Go into your settings and unclick show read posts , and save. Then you won’t see any of the same posts again after you’ve read them.

You’ll need to open up issues on those mobile app repos.

No one knows what the story is yet?

Commet and cinny are already discord-like ui’s for matrix.

Go for a walk (outside) every day. I used to try different posture exercises, running, sprinting interval training, but as you get older, nothing is healthier and easier on your body than just daily walks.

We kinda are walking machines anyway:

Bonus points for mental health if you walk in nature, without any headphones or entertainments.

Also do strength training (you can get hand barbells very cheap if you don’t have a gym close by), starting very light at first, and working up to whatever feels comfortable.

Agree, siwe is probably closer.

i know it, but haven’t spoken it for a long time.

The long term is typically what happens to empires like Rome or Britain: a slow, whiny, unstable decline into obscurity until everyone eventually leaves.

Rome had so many civil wars, imperial overextension, political instability, famines, and an inability to cope with disasters, that by the time it fell, it hollowed out to like < 1% of its peak population.

Highly recommend everyone read yasha levine’s surveillance valley for a lot of the specifics on this, looking at the internet in particular.

True. I have a decent hand-one for $50, but they can get pretty expensive.

You must buy $1600 iphone to support failing US economy.

Please don’t look at all the alternatives that are 3 years ahead in tech and 1/3rd of the cost.

The smart ones know how to avoid the shit now. I’m not testing that out tho lol.

You can find these old / used / open box pretty cheap now.

I got a 2+ year old model that originally sold for like $1500 USD, for ~200.
