Those are some spicy meatballs

That’s my philosophy too. I like browsing all so I heavily filter with keywords and blocking. My community block list is approaching 600

Amish paradise is another and probs my favourite of Al’s

Bonus points for not capitalising Russia

I like to remember this can (and will) happen to all of us at any age. Live your life on your terms, you have nothing to lose.

Also the same, been doing it for roughly a decade now. Outside of a once a year emergency I don’t start work until after lunch. I just say ‘I have other commitments in the morning’. I’ve had some PM’s push early in client engagements but it’s never escalated more then that. I just make the boundaries super clear and am always willing to walk away.

Ahh yeah I see what you mean. Good point, I also find it uncomfortable, but its at the cost of letting your food cool off

When I used to go onsite, for me home was an hour to an hour and half each way, and most of my coworkers had a 45 mins drive home in traffic. I suspect that’s why most do it. It’s your only chance for solitude.

For Windows it absolutely is in order of listing however. Typical behaviour is no reply after a second against the primary DNS results in it moving down the list.

Redundancy aside, this is more important when you span multiple datacenters and always want lookups going to the completely local or most local DC available.

TIL about the Linux/BSD not having preference though. Good to know.

Me too, over 1400 hours. I use a lot of mods. I take a break for a year or more at a time and then get hooked again. I’m trying to wait for the NPC update until I do again

NetAlertX does network detection monitoring if that’s what you are after. I’ve been very happy with it, I use the ntfy forwarder so I get the alerts on my phone.

Another happy Connect user here and you can enable the beta branch from the play store. I ran into a bug a few months ago and made a post, the Dev had it fixed hours later.

Connect was also one of the very few apps that was very early to doing instance and other flexible filtering options. It’s so good I can browse All without getting upset.

🤔

Same with me but on Connect. I can still use All and discover new stuff easily by being ruthless with blocking. I have several hundred blocked communities and use the keyword filters for major us politicians and such.

If there is someone who posts US politics in a general sub I just block the user.

I know I’m throwing some good out with bad but thems the breaks.

What always gets me is how do you know how much to bribe people for? Did you have to ask around? Do they actually tell you?

I just picture me slipping a border guard a fiver and being so insulted he arrests me lol

Nice, I never thought of Leon as a costume. Will definitely have this as a option this year

Leon was the OG imho

We’re up to 8 billion now, it’s crazy

I’ve been computing since before the internet, so definitely the latter lol. In my defence social media was never my thing so thats probably why I didn’t come across it
