It's a known bug on mobile. You need to return to the main menu, then you can continue your run.

You can't really deselect it on mobile since you're not supposed to be able to select them like this in the first place, afaik.

I don't know about that - I had my roof replaced (by insurance thankfully) about a year ago, and it was ~26k. HVAC out of pocket a couple years ago was about 15k. Not fun!

Care to elaborate? Everything I've ever heard about him makes it sound like he's a massive piece of shit. You buy his lies about Sandy Hook? Or think it's fine to make up whatever you want no matter who it hurts, and expect no consequences?

I switched to a paid domain in the last few months and regret not doing it sooner - it just works, and it's nice knowing that I won't have to reconfigure all my stuff to point at a different domain name again in the future. Price was maybe $15/year on porkbun - very much worth it imo.

I've also used freedns in the past and had no complaints about them, except that I think wildcard subdomains are limited to paid supporters (very cheap though) and at the time my SWAG docker image maybe didn't support them? It's been a while. The service was great though. Never had problems like I did with duckdns.

Same here. Mullvad's awful policy that essentially limits you to having their client installed on 5 machines was also a deal breaker for me. Sure I could have fucked around with managing keys/connections myself, but why bother? I emailed their support about how inconvenient it was, and they told me I was free to pound sand or pay them for another subscription to enjoy the convenience of having their client installed on more devices.

Proton has been great since I switched, and I see no reason to use Mullvad these days.

Holy shit, I forgot about RFK with everything else that's been going on. So the brain worm guy who eats roadkill and fucks whales or bears or something is gonna be in charge of the nation's health policies? We are so fucked.

Sorry but are you serious? This is hilarious. How is Trump gonna help with processed food and pharma bullshit? What is he going to do except make things worse for most people and better for rich fucks and himself?

Question - if your domain registrar has an API to update your A/AAAA records, and your router (or other home server) lets you easily update those records via the API when your public IP changes, is there a benefit to using freedns or any other DDNS service? It seems like you don't really need them if you own a domain.

Yes, it's why I stopped using DuckDNS and decided to buy my own domain. I used Porkbun and got a cheap one (~$15/year?). It was super easy, and DNS results are lightning fast now; no timeouts/errors/etc. like when I was using DuckDNS.

My router supports Porkbun for DDNS; it handles updating the A/AAAA records for my domain when my IP changes, but if your router doesn't have that option, I'm sure there's a script you could run on a PC or Raspberry Pi, etc. to handle that for you.

I honestly don't know why I didn't do this sooner! I've changed DDNS providers a few times over the years and it's always a pain to update everything that references the old names. It's great having peace of mind knowing that I own the domain now and won't have to change again (even if I wanted to leave Porkbun, I could just transfer the domain registration to any number of good alternatives and not have to change my domain name).
