In the same vein, I use Niagara launcher and a monochrome theme - I find it helps with the phone addiction.

Edit: This is just one tool, you also have to really want it to break habits.

will all my Jellyfin traffic go through the VPS

Yes

and count as bandwidth used?

Yes, twice (download from home to the server, and upload from the server to the client)

I do the same thing - I have a 3TB limit, but usually only use 300GB, sharing Jellyfin to a dozen or so users.

Edit: I'm sure there are plenty of good VPS providers out there, I personally have been using NerdRack for a few years now (got a VPS on special and the rate is locked as long as I keep it). Looks like they'll do $11/year right now for a KVM VPS that's sufficient.

Completely aside from what he was doing in Russia, he gives me the same vibe as Ché Cook from The OC.

I used to drive on State Line past that lot full of Teslas daily, always saw a ton of Cybertrucks just sitting. Once Musk started getting so much (more) hate I figured it was a matter of time before someone torched it.

Also, I always find it funny how it's totally just a road that divides the states, I'd drive to work and be "in" Missouri and drive home "in" Kansas lol

If you're looking to shake up your email provider in the wake of this, I highly recommend getting a custom domain name, whatever provider you choose. Cloudflare sells domains at cost. Get a not-embarrasing .com of your own, and then you can move email providers in future without losing continuity. Proton allows exporting .eml files, which you can then import into your next provider. Or just keep in cold storage and declare email bankruptcy. Once you have a custom domain, you can use unique emails for all your services by setting up a catchall address. This will at least impede credential stuffing attacks, and let you know who sold/leaked your address if you do get spam.

I personally left Proton a month or so ago after the last bit of drama, in part out of principle, but also because their offering is just really expensive for my use case: I just want email, on a budget, with reasonable privacy. Plus I was tired of not having IMAP support and being locked into their clients. Moved to a Zoho business account (for now) and have been happy for the $12/yr. I already had a domain name, but they typically run <$20/year too.

This isn't new, right?

Huh? Running locally with Ollama, via OpenWebUI.

Reminds me I caught my first one in the wild the other day. Note the replaced bumper, and still visible damage to the front left. I'm sure they have insurance /s

I used to frequent the FOSSCAD IRC ages back as a teen. This started during the post-Liberator panic, there were talks about regulating 3D printers to not allow printing guns, etc. Designed a few things, never actually printed any of it myself, but some others did. Really got me into engineering before I exited the scene, led to actually pursuing an engineering career. Was surprised to see 3D printed gun videos so openly shared, it was pretty underground for ages there.

I tried this myself, but it's hard for a few reasons:

• Messaging actually takes more time (defeats some of the purpose)
• No banking apps (inconvenient)
• No proprietary 2FA (nonstarter for work reasons)
• No "let me Google that real quick" moments (comparison shopping when in store, looking up a phone number for a restaurant, etc.).
• Their cameras universally suck

Some "dumb" phones still have a web browser and such, so you're not completely out of luck, but it's painful.

If they are "clearly not working", why can't you prove it?

I'm biased (a Christian myself), but the Christians I know are not violent, probably because they're at least half-decent human beings who at least try to practice what they say they believe (which doesn't include deepfry oil).

I know a handful of nuts, some claim to be Christian, some don't. Of the ones that claim to be Christian, none I know actually seem to live anything close to what they spout off. As a general trend in my circles, they're the loudest about their faith, the most political/patriotic (either side, but usually right leaning), and most likely to force their beliefs on others. The ones that don't claim to be Christians are pretty similar, just less hypocritical (opinionated, but not religious).

The issue is that anyone can claim to be a Christian, and as a Christian it's not for me to judge and say if they really are genuine or not.

All that to say, this article is a great example of not living out a good Christian faith, at all.
