Right, but if a young child is unaware of this and they reach out for help on a monitored platform they’re gonna find themselves in an even worse situation.

The challenge there is that in situations with abusive parents the kid is in even more danger.

I’m not keen on defending democrats, but there would absolutely be a federal abortion ban right now if Trump had been re-elected.

Our government is in extremely bad shape, one federal election isn’t going to fix it.

It’s just a zip file with a different file extension. Zip a stack of jpegs with filenames that will list them in reading order when sorted alphabetically and then change the extension.

I’ve been using 1Blocker for years. It used to be a one-time purchase, but now it’s free with many features requiring a subscription.

I do subscribe, though. It’s updated frequently, can block trackers in apps, and syncs settings across all my devices. Its comment block feature has probably kept me sane.

Microsoft’s Exchange Online Plan 1 is email-only and is 4/month per user. There are probably cheaper IMAP providers, but EO1 is full exchange: mail, global address book, calendars, etc.

Jellyfin has more functionality but is a lot more technical to set up. I didn’t think it was worth the effort since I already have a Plex server running, but I could see going through that if I didn’t.

Been running Plex with a lifetime pass for around a decade. Worth it for me for sure.

You are not the only person who just uses Subscriptions. I do, too.

And I am considering using rss to track channel updates instead of Subscriptions so I can see what’s new without going to YouTube directly. Less likely to get hit by distractions.

I’ve been using NewsBlur (and syncing with Reeder on mobile) ever since Google killed their RSS service. It supports parsing some non-RSS sites and services, as well.

Agreed! I was super-active on a few small bulletin boards until about 2003. I definitely miss the smaller, targeted community and sense of place.

I’m gonna watch this while wearing my HankCo shirt and eating a Pop Top.
