The Royal Arcade in Worthing. I love #Victorian arcades and will always photograph them.
Photo 3/24 of my "Reclaiming Worthing" series. My brother and I took my mother to Worthing for a wonderful weekend away shortly before she passed away. I want to remember the love and beauty of that weekend

Yesterday I figured I'd try setting up something I could use to work with my critique group. I was looking for collaborative editing, chat, etc. Nextcloud looked like a good candidate, so I gave it a go.
Well, Nextcloud is obviously designed to be an enterprise solution. That thing repeatedly hammered my poor little VPS into the ground on the simplest of operations. I took it out and restored Mattermost, which is great for chatting with a curated group and some other Slack-like tasks, but doesn't support collaborative editing.
The search continues.

Sometimes the question comes up if we have any DNS servers to point at. The answer is no, we only do authoritative DNS (for now anyways 
).
There are multiple other projects that do recursive DNS in the EU or based out of the EU though, like

Ich stimme zu, dass wir Amerikaner mehr protestieren sollten
Aber verstehen Sie, dass unsere plutokratischen Medien/sozialen Medien nicht darüber berichten und dies auch nicht tun werden

I just went down a bit of a rabbithole starting on YouTube, and I'm currently asking ChatGPT about the same thing. I use the same Google account to log into both. When YouTube starts recommending me more videos related to that, which inevitably it's about to, where is it getting that data from: itself or ChatGPT? 🤔
OpenAI can be selling all your data to advertising companies like Google to make some extra bucks. Especially when this data doesn't enhance chatgpt's competition.
I dunno if that's the case though.

If you dislike the state of Firefox, please recognize that part of the way it got there was by becoming dependent on the gravy train from Google.
It will still be years before it’s usable, but one thing you could consider is to help fund servo.org — it’s a fully independent rendering engine with some really great next-generation tech that is going to make the web a more secure, and a very large % of its contributor base comes from a worker cooperative’s members who happen to be some of the finest minds in browser technology.
The project is flourishing, and you can help it continue to chug along and even accelerate. There’s no telling if it’ll definitely become a full alternative to the current triad of chrome/safari/firefox, but we won’t find out if we don’t try. The future is what we make it.

When I was in the sixth grade (the 70’s) I literally had to take a class called “life skills”.
It was a year long course but you rotated every six weeks to a new “skill” class.
Examples: Home ec, finance, small engine repair, health, etc…
And, naturally… since “it was good enough for us”…
Well, actually, I think something like that really should be done these days.
(In this case it could be covered in the finance section)
