  • I know this is a joke but you wouldn’t come within 50ft of that person as they’d claim it was self defense to shoot you dead.

    Personally, though, many people who hunt probably wouldn’t hunt at a national park IMO because there risk of other non hunters being there. Normally, iirc hunting has policies to signal you’re a person (like wearing orange while hunting deer).

    I’m personally not a hunter, but we own firearms; and I believe anyone who’s afraid to use them, or hates on them is in for a rude awakening. This country built in the right to own them to protect ourselves from our government because they understood that people with power lust for more power, and we’ll likely need a reset in the future because of this. Learn to protect yourselves! Your way of life and your life will depend on it someday.







  • I’m off all social media (over 10 years) off reddit for 6+months (banned), closed LinkedIn (2-3mo ago and sick of the data siphoning) closed Imgur about 4-5 months ago (just because). It- honest to God, is SO freeing!

    I’m only on my phone for work calls, maybe a few email (use rotating addresses to cut spam), and a game or two from F-Droid if I have spare time. Otherwise it’s just a few Lemmy pages about privacy, security, or self-hosted… My 4+ year old phone battery still lasts about 1.5-2 days with mostly WiFi and BT, some GPS and data. It’s nice it lasts so long.

    Most other free time is family or maybe hobby stuff.




  • Executives across retail, restaurants and packaged goods are increasingly worried about US shoppers with tighter budgets amid surging gas prices caused by the conflict in the Middle East.

    “They’re literally running out of money at the end of the month,” Kraft Heinz Co. Chief Executive Officer Steve Cahillane said in an interview this week. “We’re seeing negative cash flows in the lower-income brackets where they’re dipping into savings.”

    DIPPING INTO SAVINGS???! WTF are they smoking?! I don’t know many people with a cushion of savings let alone a comfortable one; especially lately since our pay has stagnated, job market’s trash, and EVERYTHING has risen in price! Who’s got the ability to even attempt to save?!












  • My recommendation to many newcomers:

    Setup Yunohost, which gives you a custom Debian-based OS that’s easy to deploy tested builds, like Rustdesk. You can configure your Domain info, DNS, etc pretty easily, and if you decide, a dynamic domain or Porkbun (cuz is cheap plus free private WHOIS and SSL certs).

    Yes, a small learning curve, but easier than building from Docker when you know nothing about Docker nor have the time to learn. I can fumble through a UI, I can’t fumble with commands or code that I don’t instinctively know. Others who day “just take the time to learn Docker”… But I’ve got 2 jobs, kids and their activities, pets, and other hobbies, so not much time for other stuff.
