I get it. There are ways to gave privacy and dignity without having to have your own room, though, like finding a free or salvaged desk and set of bins to hold all your things in one spot.

Sharing a small studio with multiple people – roommates or family – works best when everyone kind of agrees that ‘their’ space is ‘theirs,’ and certain spaces have, say, the furniture arranged in a way that boundary off / designate those areas.

It’s not always fun, but it works! Take it from somebody with experience. You can figure something out to make some areas feel more like ‘yours.’

Hi bee

Thank you for posting this! I assumed some FF-based browsers, while claiming to remove telemetry, in fact still phoned home to a degree. This is good know!

Also, I was surprised by a few others on the list, like Mullvad, Kagi, and DuckDuckGo, being so straightforward – not that making fewer connections implies better privacy, as even a single connection can transmit any kind of data, but moreso that there some browsers that are designed to operate with less complexity.

Really surprised by Zen, which is a FF derivative claiming to be all about a ‘beautiful’ and ‘simple’ web browsing experience, having a ton of connections.

The cognitive dissonance is real.

The short, easy answer: it typically takes a lifetime of service for the rest of the church to determine if they fit the bill to be Pope.

This comment it golden

Holy shit.

If you have a smart TV, you’re already at a disadvantage.

One solution to consider might be a black hole DNS on your local network, like Pi-Hole, that can target this device and prevent all Google requests.

Another, unfortunately, might be to get a dumb TV and use an HTPC as your streaming solution for the content you already watch.

And another might be to look into custom TV OS options out in the wild.

Hey, just tossing in a comment here, I think this post is a good post!

God, I love this so much.

The jar looks like it’s made a glass, which is common and probably worth only a few dollars.

Jars of coins, however, are much more rare, and could be worth a lot more. It’s kind of hard to make jars of coins. Maybe if you melt them together. Sounds like craftsman work.

If you have a picture of your jar of coins – maybe this was an upload of the wrong jar? your glass one? – please post it so we can assess the worth. Thanks.

What’s your hypervisor manager? Or are you just bare metal?

For VMWare and Proxmox both, I would recommend the community edition of Veeam. It can handle up to 10 VMs for free.

If you’ve got the funds as a small-to-large business, Veeam’s first paid tier, on a yearly basis, is a solid option to backup even more.

Caveat emptor if you buy a license (or not): Veeam runs on Windows only. I have used, like, a single internal network Windows VM dedicated just to Veeam before. It has an easy to pick up UX after a little research, and the UI is clean.

Oops! I shared the wrong link, and also meant to say ‘Somewhat in progress.’ Explains why I got downvoted.

There are on-going efforts to create what is know as App Communication Scopes in GrapheneOS, which covers similar ground to their Storage Scopes and Contacts Scopes. It’s been a WIP for while, though.

EDIT: wrong link, didn’t fully flesh out the thought, and more. I deserve the downvote!

Oh, wow! PureStorage has some really neat 150tb NVMe drives they’re using for storage. Glad it got mentioned in the write up.
