I get my ebooks on one of the following services:

• Annas archive
• IRC Highway
• Z-library through TOR browser

Stable resale value is indeed a great perk of an iPhone when compared to phones running Android.

Is this book more hard or soft scifi?

What did you like about the book, if you liked it al all.

Hows the spiciness level? 1-10 pepper scale.

I havent yet dealt with the customer service so this is indeed something to keep in the back of my head.

Does internxt and skiff also provide fully setup nextcloud instances or do you need to set it up yourself?

I’m reading that nextcloud tends to break whenever you update it or perform administrative tasks. Hetzner does al this for you so that’s a bonus item.

I also take a lot of handwritten notes but disliked the hand writing UI on Onenote, I’m using Goodnotes for this.

It would be great to have all my notes in one system but I don’t mind that much. Goodnotes has good OCR so I can search my notes.

For me drugs, in moderation, do enhance life. A beautiful mushroom trip opening my mind to be able to see new patterns. Losing my sense of self in a ketamine trip was also a profound experience in realizing a lot of how we think is a construct and not inherently “real”.

The world, for me, is not so black and white.

That’s why I was playing with the thought of having a drink again. Now that the holidays are over the urge has lessened and I can continue my life of not drinking.

I finished it and read the sequel, loved the Shrike story line but there’s better scifi to read in my opinion.

Assuming you don’t have any mental health issues make sure you make every day worth living.

If you do have mental health issues you should probably get that looked at by a professional.

If you feel like life is a drag, and you dislike it, change it.

Try a new sport, build that hobby project you’ve always wanted, buy a motorcycle, plan a boardgame night with friends family, try that fetish you’ve been eyeing your whole life.

Don’t be a passenger in your own life.

Democratic Republic of Congo not being so democratic after all.

I’ve heard of them before but the pricing seems pretty steep. I now see they also have a free trial plan, I’ll check that out.

Thanks!

Wondering hoe long it’s going to take for someone to mention Linux in the comments

You go to this website from Hetzner:

https://www.hetzner.com/storage/storage-share

You sign up for one of the plans, cheapest is 5.11 EUR a month. You’ll get 1 TB of storage for this.

Storage Share is essentially some space on a server from Hetzner where the Nextcloud software is already running.

I’ve tried searx some years ago but couldn’t find a stable instance and didn’t want to host my own.

Got any viable alternatives? Duckduckgo just doesn’t cut it for me.

Don’t really know what you mean with resume but you can copy and paste this anywhere you want.

If you’re fed up with companies fucking you over there’s an alternative.

There software called Nextcloud which you can run on a server which works in comparable ways as Onedrive/Google Drive/Dropbox/etc. works.

You could host it yourself on a server if you know how.

If you’re not familiar with forwarding ports or setting static IP adresses you can rent some server space from Hetzner where Nextcloud is included.

Yeah but I constantly have this little goblin in the back of my head saying this time it’ll be different.

Just take it one day at a time and you’ll get there

I’m wondering if I’m still the guy who only saw the percentage of alcohol on the beer menu.

On the other hand might be a bit dangerous to try and see if I still am.

In the past I was very absolute in many ways and I’ve changed this in other aspects in my life.

I’m wondering if I can do the same with alcohol.

It just feels like I have something special by not drinking for this many years.
