Yeah man, this was a wild ride. You absolutely did the right thing ignoring this dude. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10637253/Florida-broadcaster-paid-millions-air-Russian-propaganda-radio.html

I wonder if that is related to the Tim Pool, Russian influence for money, story that broke last month.

Lol, that’s how I read it too and it got me thinking about the most inconsequential change I could make in my life in the last 24 hours. Maybe I’d get an extra ketchup packet with my lunch combo. Mission accomplished I guess.

I know you said you’re looking for an Android app but have you considered using Home Assistant? I’ve had success with cheap BLE tags I got off AliExpress. I use a few $5 ESP32 chips for various things including BLE tracking. The only thing is I’m not sure how straight forward sending an alarm signal would be. I track if I took my trashcan to the curb on Tuesdays.

“Mirror mirror on the wall, who spreads the most misinformation of all?”

Oh yeah, The Witch was great. Period piece horror can be hit or miss, but that one hit it out of the park for me.

Thanks for this, I don’t think I’ve seen either of those. Gonna have to check them out.

Personally, I’m partial to a slow burn horror movies. I don’t mind jumpscares if they serve a purpose other than to startle you. For example in Hereditary, one of the jump scares is the mom driving alone in her car and she hears her dead daughter make her signature mouth click sound. That startles you, but also lets you know the daughter may not be gone. As opposed to a generic jumpscare like a cat jumping out of a window with a dramatic music sting.

My all-time favorite horror movie technique is a lingering camera after the dialogue and characters leave. Like even if they don’t show anything it makes me uneasy. I don’t know what that’s called but it’s so good if the director does it right.

I don’t have ADHD, but I imagine this is like showing a picture of a kid standing to one in a wheelchair saying be more like this.

Kagi has Claude built in? I’ve been using it for a year and didn’t know that.

War. Chester. Fight me.

If I’m being honest the only Microsoft product I actually like is Excel.

Oh yeah, I totally agree with you that governments should at least host their own Mastodon instances. I thought it was weird when Twitter became the go to for communication from the US Government.

Idk, this fight kinda makes me sad. Tyson should be playing with his grand kids at some retirement community in south Florida. Jake Paul can get fucked, he’s obviously playing to Tyson’s ego.

I haven’t tried caddy but I’ve heard good things. I’ve used nginx in the past. I’m currently using Traefik and have been for a few years now. Once it’s set up its pretty great.

This is how I set up my reverse proxy and it works really well with wildcard SSL certs. Only need one certificate for as many sites as I want!

That reminds me of the time I took a date to go see “The Hills Have Eyes”. It was a dine-in theater, and I had gotten breadsticks and marinara. We just sat down and started to eat, and the date was going pretty good. If you’ve ever seen that movie, the opening scene is a jump scare right off the bat. I had a mouth full of breadstick and was actively holding the cup full of marinara that I launched directly into her chest because I jumped. Anyways, the date didn’t work out and it was pretty awkward for the rest of the movie.

Look, I’m no guillotine-ologist, but I think if I was going to construct one I would forgo my usual method of measure once and cut 5 to 10 times until I have to go get another board because I’ve destroyed the last one.

I wish there was some version of PBS for Lemmy, like public funds for hosting. I’ll admit I haven’t really thought this through, so there’s probably some problems with my idea.

Obviously this is from the hit 80s sitcom Squiggly Boys where the lovably awkward female recruit befriends a cute baby alien spider, high jinks ensue.
