The cheapest?

I um, rebuild my own vape coil. Thing is, I know that’s a rather outdated concept, but one fine day, I ran out of coils, remembered I had a rebuildable for this device and just… never went back?

4 inches of wire, and a clump of cotton. I usually never rebuild the wire and just install new cotton.

So, ~$0.05 therabouts.

Main-character types that think their exception is rule enough to be bitter.

Everyone sucks, build your own router or depend on the enshitty options at your local ScamN’Shop.

what about the average consumer?

He’s fucked.

Consider the Following

Big Country - Influenced your favorite band, bagpipe guitars, google it.

They Might be Giants - Not JUST a fun jokey band, just mostly one. Some of their songs are lyrically and musically brilliant tho despite the light tone.

The Menzingers - A lighter hardcore band with a southern rock vibe that puts out really heartfelt and just awesome stuff.

Yeah, but listening to all of it, you get the sense it’s more 12 albums with 10 fluff pieces around them.

In no timeline am I ever putting Laminated Denim up against IDPLM&L, or Gumboot against Nonagon. Their bar for quality is kinda loopy.

I liked Phantom Island, a good B+ record from them with some of my favorite singles. They’re still an extremely strong band, they sometimes spend 1-3 albums fucking around before making another hit.

The same reason any other rich, out of touch person does anything, the quest for more money and/or recognition.

It ain’t like Hollywood is paying very well anymore and her main gig was what, one franchise? Mmmhm.

Guess it’s UAE spyware now.

Pssssst.

no one “owns” XMPP.

Win survive.

It’s like some people think this is an actual war between two even forces or something. Check your motivations.

Relatable!

Absolute Batman is street-level and has little to no resources, and it’s new… read it up.

BTW, Absolute Joker’s a rich sociopath, everyone’s an altered fucked version of themselves.

Lemmy has a bit of a reputation of being the “fight club” of the fediverse…

To a degree, I’d agree on that one. Some people come here looking for an argument, farming vibes in the doorway, don’t let it get to you.

Wait, you guys want to survive it?

Sadly

They’re great films to shit on and watch while blasted with your mates.

“I agree, mushroom cloud”, said the Giraffe

Painting a target on himself

Put it before the white box, then wireguard or ygg out to a vps. Fuck 'em.

People get what they pay for.

38. This one has been around.

Lemmy is the spirit of the UBB board continued, many of us are the remnants of the old web, just following the endless chain to whatever the next big exodus will be, seeing how many come with us, and the names that fade with each hop.

I have treated Lemmy differently. I was pseudo anonymous on Reddit. I treat Lemmy the same way I treat a darkweb overlay network. (no this isn’t my first account)

This has more to do with the times than community trust, but I’ve been an anon for a while before too, it’s nothing new.

Rather use a messenger that didn’t require my phone number like xmpp.

Apart from “increased security”, what is actually the point of these releases?

That is the point. The desktop landscape… aside from maybe KDE, changes very little over time. It’s more that new software is created to try out, while old software would rather retain their current userbase and not be tarred and feathered over sweeping changes.

in the background, though

The kernel is constantly adapting and updating to changes in the cybersecurity threat landscape, and shit is happening, all the time, relentlessly, forever.
