That’s the problem. You paid only once. The companies want you to pay indefinitely. And if they control your OS, well, they can shove ads or broatware into your face all they wish gaining more revenue.

And that’s why I’ll never give up my domain. Those vultures will immediately snap it.

I don’t recommend hosting a Lemmy just for yourself. How federation currently works is it mirrors EVERYTHING. Your disk will be filled up with images you never even view and you put yourself at risk of having illegal imagery on your machine if you don’t actively keep up with which instances you must ban.

You’re right, my bad.

OP’s security concern is valid. Different CAs may differ in the challenges used to verify you to be the domain owner. Using something that you could crack may lead to an attacker’s public key being certified instead.

This could for example be the case with HTTPS verification (place a file with a specific content accessible through your URL) if the website has lacking input sanitization and/or creates files with the user’s input at an unfortunate location that collides with the challenge.

This attack vector might be far-fetched, but there can certainly be differences between different signing authorities.

Do you still need help with docker?

How close to vim’s functionality is evil mode? I’ve been toying with the idea of learning Emacs but I rely on Vim’s langmap and that is rarely implemented in Vim emulations / bindings.

You can learn Emacs in one day. Every day.

Even if you use arrows, you still have to reposition your hand.

Trying to figure out what’s wrong with the picture, I counted the pins.

But yeah, I guess it’s too wide to fit. Cool :')

Other than the things already mentioned, you can read analog clocks easily from great distances, as long as the handles and the face have appropriate contrast (e.g. black on white). Even with impaired vision and large distance, being able to discern the rough position of black smudges on white background is enough to tell the time. This is not possible with a digital clock, because you can’t distinguish between the digits as easily. Therefore, I’d certainly argue their much better for legibility in the back of a classroom or a lecture hall.

It’s always the DNS!

Setting up synapse is particularly painful.

I haven’t experienced bot presence on Lemmy nearly as much as other platforms. It feels like Reddit years ago: small, but tight communities.

There are free services that let you send and receive on your own domain. I use zoho. I can send emails with SMTP, but unfortunately, you cannot read them other than by using their web interface in the free tier.

Oh yeah you’re right!

Wear hearing protection to concerts, kids.

The generative fill has been around for way longer than the AI craze.

I can do it but not to that extent as shown in the picture. I can’t get my feet to sit next to one another.
