Kept me waiting long enough that I’m no longer a Proton user. Selfhosted Nextcloud goes weeeeeeeeee

 

Are there any FOSS/selfhostable alternatives to Google Alerts? I like the ability to aggregate results from across the Internet and save the alert as an RSS link.

I use Pocket, Zotero, and Obsidian. I save news articles from my RSS feeds and social media to Pocket, and assign them tags. Journal articles I find get saved to Zotero, which saves a PDF too, if available. Both Pocket and Zotero have plugins to sync with Obsidian, which I also use for general notetaking and as a personal journal.

Exactly no one will think twice about seeing you playing a GameBoy ROM on your phone, you’re good

I would not set foot in Florida or Texas if you paid me.

I do! I volunteer at a dairy goat CSA, and I’ve learned how to make my own chèvre at home

I recently read (listened to) The Will to Change by bell hooks and Whipping Girl by Julia Serano, and I found them both pretty good

Accounting. The advice given to me when I went to college was “major in something ‘practical’ and minor in what you love”. I think that was good advice. That way you end up with in-demand skills and a solid fallback, but by doing minors and extra certificates, you get to spend time learning things you’re passionate about, and you can demonstrate to future employers that you are well-rounded and adaptable.

I’ve never deliberately mixed them to try to sleep, but I have smoked after taking Benadryl for allergies. I didn’t notice anything other than the expected effects.

They’re functionally the same – smoking plant material in that form factor. But I’ve noticed cigarette smokers tend to hold the cigarette facing out, in between their index and middle finger. Whereas someone smoking a joint would more typically hold it towards their palm, between their thumb and middle or index finger.

Deleted my account. The app had gone to shit already anyway, it’s a shame there isn’t a comparable service that isn’t wholly enshittified

Are you an introvert but still want to make a difference?

Do you like talking to persons but hate talking to people?

Do you want to join community but hate the idea of meeting with community?

Here's a fun thing to do:

  • Print zines (little how-to and educational pamphlets).
  • Put zines in little free libraries!

Here's a place to download zines for free: https://www.sproutdistro.com/

Edit: Adding @CrimethInc as well: https://crimethinc.com/library

Here's a how-to on how to make and put together zines (cheers @susankayequinn )

Here's a place to find all the little free libraries in your neighborhood: https://littlefreelibrary.org/map/

Here's the FAQ from Little Free Libraries regarding donating any books or material that may be considered controversial (dive in and read their take on Banned Books! Oooooh!): https://littlefreelibrary.org/faqs/#45820

Do you have any other sources for zines that you like? Post them below.
