As much as I dislike Google I feel you really made a decent suggestion here.

Weirdly enough I’ve found it much easier to print on linux. It just works out of the box.

If it doesn’t it is definetly the printers manufacturer fault 😅

I keep posting the same comment. These people are robbing all of us of our prosperity. We could all be living in utopia…

A concept which aligns nicely with Solarpunk. 🙂

Yeah I found out the same when I moved back to Iceland. Buying a used car? Renting an apartment? Staying up to date on the parents groups in school, kids sports, any events by any business or group? Contacting any person?

Being forced to hand over all my personal information just to do any of the above really doesn’t sit well with me 😑

I believe most of us here block as many ads as possible by any means possible. I so rarely see ads that every once in while when I do (on other peoples devices) I'm shocked and disgusted.

Is enough for me. If I watch YouTube on mobile it's in Brave browser as that block the ads on iOS.

If I watch YouTube on my TV it's in https://smarttubeapp.github.io/ which also blocks ads.

You don't have to live like that and I feel sorry for all the people that do.

All that being said I know what you mean, even the content itself is now saturated with ads, i.e. a word about our sponsor for five minutes at the start of any video...

I don't know about you but I was just waiting for an excuse. I ain't ever going back. It's a brave new world for me, part of shifting my whole suite to FOSS. Leaving the old internet behind me.

I like how you had the good sense to shut all us Linux fans the fuck up right at the start of your post 😅

Recently, I've been playing a fairly complicated character and wanted an easier way to navigate all the myriad spells available. I had a certain system in mind, and a quickness that wasn't available from the source site. I used an already compiled list maintained in a Google Sheet by Kyle Dixon to export to a TSV, then a couple of lines of JavaScript later, and voila! The perfect web frontend for all my spells.

Check it out here: https://sturlabragason.github.io/spells/

And it's available under an MIT license in the GitHub repo here:

My incredibly talented wife is offering a selection of her work for free on her new website https://bubbla.art!

She always has a focus on making art available to everyone by offering some of it for free. This includes #coloringpages, #papercraft, and more. It has been an absolute privilege to be a part of my wife's process. She has enjoyed tremendous success, focusing mostly on local projects in Iceland, like a card game that encourages young readers to read (http://lestrarflodhestar.is/), beautiful whale products which have been hugely popular (https://bubbla.art/product-category/whales/), and she recently held an art show. The reception of everything she has done these past few years has just been amazing! She has some of her work being sold in places such as Spilavinir, ABC Spilavörur, Whales of Iceland, Elding Adventure at Sea, used by the Reykjavík City Library in their #spilað_og_spjallað initiatives and much much more!

I'm very happy to contribute to her success where I can. Apart from being a sounding board for some of her fantastic ideas, I have been able to assist in some of the more technically oriented aspects; most recently setting up the bubbla.art website. Initially, I built a site from scratch using #HTML + #JS + #TailwindCSS (https://tailwindcss.com/), running on #nodejs, fronted by a #caddy server (https://caddyserver.com/), all in containers in Amazon Web Services (AWS). This allowed for absolute control over each line of code and every aspect of the site, but when it came to integrating payment providers, the available solutions required a bit too much effort so I decided to rebuild the whole thing using WordPress + NGINX + #Apache + Custom #CSS. This allowed a reasonable level of control with the addition of being able to easily integrate payment providers, SendGrid emails, etc. To track the metrics of the site, I deployed the very fantastic #ackee (https://ackee.electerious.com/), a privacy-focused analytics tool. It's awesome because it gives us the numbers we need without compromising visitor privacy, running behind a Caddy server, in containers in AWS.

Check out her site https://bubbla.art/; I'm sure you'll like what you see!

No we can not. This is fucked up. It's one rich guy's hobby:
