What do you mean by facts? How is female defined by you? Because I doubt you genetically test for XX chromosomes before you say female, right?

I think there are plenty of words that can be factual, but also unkind. And that is all that this is about. I would at the very least find it odd if someone used "human specimen" instead of calling me a man, though it is factual. I think trying to use the words that describe people the way they see themselves instead of hanging onto some logical ideal is a normal transition languages make over time and is a kinder way to be.

When I was using Librewolf maybe 4 years ago, it was never up to date with Firefox. I thought it could be a potential security risk, sometimes it took months to incorporate Firefox security updates. Has that improved recently?

You want them to live

I think this is totally reasonable, and a very forward thinking imagining of what the future of the internet could be like. I just thought that the analogy you made in the previous comment was a good one to poke fun at.

I like the idea of being able to run elasticsearch/whatever on a local copy of the full text of all of your bookmarks.

It's like having your books open, with a mark in the book for the page. A book mark, if you will

The app Buzzkill is good for managing notifications too

Everyone, you all, y'all

For you, I suggest sticking to Discord. I am of the mind that your effort should be focused on your community instead of enforcing a FOSS philosophy upon a group that may not have any interest in doing so.

If you are creating a new community, this is a different conversation, of course.

Look into an office supply / overstock / reseller store around you. When businesses close up shop, they usually sell their desks, chairs, etc. to some kind of overstock store. You can usually go there and get very nice chairs for less then 1/4 of the normal cost

I love gritty. I grew up in Seattle and found the whole Kraken logo and team name were just so uninspiring. Especially when the Flyers just went all in on just being cool as hell with Gritty. Fortunately I was already a Canes fan so the boring Kraken thing doesn't bother me at all

This is great advice. I think the smaller NAS is a prudent investment now, and the more capable server can come later. I think I don't want to let perfect be the enemy of good and keep me from investing in a local storage solution.

I think this is great advice. You've made me realize that I'm entering a stage of my training that is notorious for lack of free time, so maybe I'll leave the self build tinkering for another day. It is more important for me to get the local storage going sooner than later but I will plan on building a tinkering PC someday.
