Was this a luxury unit?

For just five years, though. Don’t bury the lede.

Well, they did get them to switch to USB-C, so I’m not holding my breath, but I do hope that this will lead to more interoperability. I’m tired of Apple making Android/non-Apple users feel like second-class citizens.

You can use plastic sleeve covers, just nothing permanent like laminate. You can’t scan it with laminate.

I haven’t - thanks for the tip! I’ve mostly been running Kubuntu vanilla, aside from changing some DNS configs.

Thank you, I’ll take a look at those!

As a noob who is only moderately tech savvy, how can I get started with selfhosting? Is it worth just buying a Pi to mess around with at first?

Neat, I will have to check that out! I’m guessing you can’t enable it on locked down work devices, however.

Hell yeah, bell hooks! Spot on recommendation.

Love how your reply is both respectful/compassionate and informative. Well done.

Ditto, NextDNS has been great for that. I tried their paid version as well but downgraded since I never ran into that many queries. I’ve heard good things about quad9 too, which I think is European.

Between Two Fires has such an interesting premise!

That is a fantastic cover!

I’ve had this on my list for a while. It’s pretty short, I really should get to it soon.
