Signing up to take a couple of certification exams later this year in order to advance my career. I’ve plateaued amd I don’t like it

I had a Ball python and I’m pretty sure he recognized my scent. He’d perk up when I’d get near his enclosure.

He was about five feet long and he’d just wrap around one of my arms and I’d go around the house and do some chores (moving laundry, putting dishes away) one handed.

He was easy to maintain and some folks would ask to come over when I was going to feed him. (Thawed dead rats/mice, no live food.)

Not a lot. You could try planing the edges to make it look even, but that would also mean having to stain/treat the wood after. Trying to get it to match would be a challenge.

I wouldn’t have to set my alarm for work.

What is his native language?

I’ll look into Tailscale then. I’m guessing there’s something funky about adding additional users. I would eventually like to add one or two other people.

I’m not a hardcore tech person and this is exactly the issue for me as well.

I want to be able to stream my music collection when I’m away from home without having to get an associate’s degree in networking.

AMBULATING WITH A DOMESTICATED COMPANION CARBON-BASED LIFEFORM IS A PLEASANT EXPERIENCE THAT PRODUCES ENDORPHINS IN MY ALL-TOO HUMAN EXISTENCE.

Grouplove, Die Ärzte, They Might Be Giants, Babymetal.

There are plenty of other sites available. Unfortunately, none with the same volume of titles so you might have to use multiple sites.

Best summary I’ve seen:

I honestly don’t know. I do my own blocking of users/communities/instances through the app. For me, dbzero is the best fit.

If you’re interested in communities like that, dbzero is a good place to look.

It’s the primary mission of pretty all colonizing societies - destroy the sources and you destroy a cultures collective memory.

I deleted Plex from my barely functional home server.

I’ll give Jellyfin a try. I just want to be able to access my music away from home

Mint. I’ll have to check that out. I have quite a bit of music and I’d love to be able to listen wherever.

I’m going to check out the TRaSH guides. I’m using Linux and I’ve had a very difficult time getting anything set up. Plex keeps dropping my external connection and Jellyfin absolutely wouldn’t see my external drive, even after monkeying with groups and permissions. I don’t doubt that most of my issues are due to my ignorance.

Also, pedophiles are not all child molesters and vice versa.

In fact, most child abusers are not pedophiles. They victimize children not because they are children but because they are easy prey.

It’s about the power and control. If their victims weren’t children, they’d be called sociopaths or psychopaths.

Pedophilia can be easily treated but because of hate-mongers who have conflated these two things, many fear they’ll be arrested if they seek help. Even if they’ve never done anything wrong. Some do become abusers because they feel like they have no safe way of dealing with their feelings.

Trying to equate LGBTQ to pedophilia is using misinformation and lies to hurt and scare.

It’s the ultimate in hate and ignorance.

I’ve been downloading more and more FOSS apps either from GitHub or F-Droid. I’ve been trying to avoid anything Google or from the Play Store.

Like others have said, I don’t mind paying a subscription if there’s a service on the backend that I find useful, such as SoundCloud or Burner.

Even then, I’m thinking I might end my SoundCloud subscription. I use it and Spotify to get listening suggestions but I’m hoping to find a better way to find music I might like but don’t know anything about.

I’ve been using Nicotine+ for SoulSeek and I’ve been able to find just about everything I’ve been looking for.

It has a “Wish List” feature that I’ve used a couple of times.
