All that lowers crime, too. And a better educated population is a more proficient workforce, who can build more impressive stuff, do better science, and better cure and treat the diseases you or your family might eventually suffer from.

Oh my god the flood of beans and denim jeans content was ridiculous, I used Lemmy less for a while.

It might be an error on my part actually or of their payment system. My attempt to purchase actually didn’t work (connection dropped while attempting to buy) so that might have been why, I was trying to connect while not having an active account. (My guess, no error info was given) FYI the reason I want to try and this vpn looks interesting, is they have an obfuscation layer added to wireguard, which I find think I’ve seen before. I’ll try it again when have time in a couple days, their support got back to me to fix the payment.

I’ve tried both their settings and can’t get it to connect, I’ll try from desktop tomorrow.

Never heard of it, I’ll try it and let you know. (I’m always on the hunt for good options as fallbacks and for research for clients)

I use both Mullvad and Astrill in China. A lot of VPNs don’t work here so it’s a feather in the cap for these that do.

Great comment, I don’t have anything to add just wanted to say so.

Oh I’ve been there!

It is and it isn’t. My current goals and priorities require as long of a horizon to accomplish them and as much focus as possible. Or do they? if I got back into the risky overdrive mode and accelerated full speed and full joy all at once…

I went to a concert with a mega fan and also don’t get it, that shit hurt my ears. I think Rush fans brains are all wired at some unique frequency.

Fuck yeah, I miss it. Smokers are my people. Risk takers, nihilists, indulgers, hedonists, adventurers, rebels, fun-havers… but I’ve gotten domesticated and want to live a long and clean life. Sigh.

Oh brilliant, thank you for the tip!

I listened to a review about the book by Pod Save America guy Jon Favreau and apparently the book is a barn burner and chock full of incredibly damning info about Zuckerberg and co., and a great read.

I recommend over the ear, noise reduction headphones to drown out the cries. Also keep your eyes high up towards the horizon, and keep moving.

Yeah agreed, I had to do it too for French and German stuff, I wish I could read whatever they’re posting but I can’t so I just block it but mean no offense.

Voyager on iOS is great.

On Lemmy we get scraps and that’s how we like it!

Fighting for survival requires a lot of mental energy!

Welcome!
