It's pretty great, there's also Cornell's companion citizen science app called eBird that you can use to count birds around you which is useful to ornithologists to track bird population density and migration patterns!

This recipe is pretty good, but you don't have to get that fancy. I usually just fry the spam up in a pan until it's crispy, put a slice between two layers of rice, and wrap it up in the nori (seaweed). It also tastes really good if you dip it in Bachan's Japanese BBQ Sauce, they sell a big bottle at my Costco.

Was gonna say, wayyy ahead of you OP. I just paid one off, I should probably max it out again just in case.

Have you tried out Firefish? It's another micro-blogging site like Mastodon, but the UI looks better in my opinion. You can follow Mastodon users on there and a bunch of other Fediverse content as well. They're still working on an official app, but the PWA works quite nicely.

This is the correct answer.

Sorry about your MIL, genuinely kind people are few and far between in this world.

I'm hoping suicide booths are a thing by the time I retire, something like in Futurama. I'll just blow all my savings on a yearlong worldwide cruise or something and then call it a life. The other option is moving to a 2nd world country with universal healthcare to make it stretch, the first option sounds more fun though to be honest.

Performance on lemm.ee is pretty solid, world was my original instance but it's just my backup now. Hopefully whatever vulnerabilities that are being used to DDoS them can be patched soon.

My understanding is you can't host your own instance on an Android device, you'd need a server. You could stand up a server on Oracle Cloud, their Always Free tier is pretty generous.

Hmmm I hate this haha

Fuckkkkkkk....

I got a 4 CPU / 24Gb RAM Ubuntu 22.04 ARM VPS running on Oracle's "always free" tier. The Synapse and Postgres containers are using about 2% CPU and 1.2Gb of RAM combined. If your strapped for resources, check them out.
