Ok, I realize this is c/selfhosted, but I have a question… why not use something like the xBrowserSync extension for this?

Aside of someone could associate the data to me for my list of favorite web places, which has 100 other exposure points. Is there another use case you’re solving?

NextDNS is my latest approach and it’s working well.

Because corporate personhood is different than person personhood?

I always find it interesting to take corporate fines, translate them to a % of gross income and then apply it to my salary to put it in perspective.

Here’s the best part, a basic 1st offense traffic ticket is usually way more expensive. (I assume a ticket would be around $250 not counting the increased insurance rates.)

Are you looking for something like the jabra speak 510?

It has a cord that wraps around the base for charging and it works as a speaker off the computer.

Kagi! I can’t say it enough, it’s the new growth in the underbrush from the dumpster fire of google. Web archive of sites is there and tot can use context filters. You can even prioritize sites in results. I don’t to see Pinterest in results ever again.

Yes it’s a paid search, but the priority is bringing quality results without ads. This is a reasonable trade off to me that, so far, keeps their interest in serving the searching end user as their customer, not their target.

About 6 months. It even seems to be working for the sensitive skin person in the house.

If you have space to store stuff buy bulk in things that don’t expire.

Make your own cleaners for some things. Vinegar, dawn soap, and rubbing alcohol are the base for most.

Boardwalk laundry detergent has been a great cost saver. You have to buy 40 lbs at a time, but it works great. We typically use half the recommended amount since it’s made for larger washers.

Watch for commercial products as sometimes this is the way to go for simple items that need to be durable.

I was surprised to see lemmy.world didn’t defederate. I hope it does. And, I hope a mod weighs in on the planned direction for the instance.

Ha, I have rotation lock on so Mlem doesn’t accidentally refresh. I just flipped my phone upside down!

Thanks for the answer!
