A beautiful place. Glad they finally did this. Was always a mess walking around with all the dumb cars parked and others trying to get through. Love visiting this part of the city!

Glad I went to business school for 4 years to figure that one out!

Why the hell would anybody ever want to be on a platform for children? Why would any parent allow their kids on a platform for adults?

Hey I smiled really well for this one.

How is Matrix dysfunctional?

Setting up Matrix/Synapse was extremely easy and done in a day. The self hosting part is not that hard and I would say migrating users would be the majority of your time. Plenty of VPSs online make obtaining infrastructure very easy.

Are you self hosting? I just set up an instance today and it was extremely easy following the instructions for the ESS Community edition on github.

Borg Base offers EU based server locations. They have been awesome to work with.

I simply use both. New book comes in, add to Calibre to get most metadata down pat and move to my library, then gets imported into Booklore where I can easily make minor changes/fixes and that’s it. I use Booklore for reading across many of my devices.

You could get rid of Calibre in my stack, I just find it nice for local management on my host PC.

Need to remember where they are getting paid from as well. That’s oil money lining their pockets.

Not sure if you also do aliases as well but I’ve seen an increase in websites flagging providers like addy.io as well. Extremely annoying that so many websites think they are so important that they refuse an alias.

Usually people advise against trying to time the market. Missing the down is one thing but if you miss the way back up then that is a lot of potential profit gone. Weathering the storm is typically the better option.

I will absolutely refuse any unlawful order to see my “papers”.

Better. Cat people pushing their narrative making me want a cat.

I remember a few tweets floating around of the base cheering Trump as antiwar. Specifically around the 4 6 32 wars he “stopped”. But if you go further back to his past presidency you get the pro war sentiment again. So really just pick a date and it could go either way.

Thanks for the reply, I’ll try that as a start.

How do I stop it? Half of my family is still delusional thinking this is a good idea. It feels helpless when his cult is still stuck on him.
