I’d love to retire to a cozy inn with an endless pot of stew

Exactly. If it wasn’t clear in 2016, it certainly is now - Trump is a symptom, not the root problem

NPR is a public non-profit.

Then why bother?

Contributing to social programs is a good thing - we should judge a society based on how it treats the most vulnerable members. And I want to live in a world where everyone, no matter who they are, has their needs met.

Out of curiosity, why do you think it wouldn’t work?

It makes the modern workplace a very easy and pleasant part of society to exist in /s

I suppose this is public information, but it feels more like targeting a specific individual than gives me the warm fuzzies. It’s normal for a large nonprofit to have paid positions to coordinate with donors and such.

Very cool! I had no idea this was a thing! Very up my alley - I’m going to dig in some more, thanks for sharing

I am a relatively new Yunohost user, and I’m a big fan. I’ve dabbled with Docker, but I’ve never been quite able to figure out how to make it work. Yunohost took the hard part away and made it pretty easy to set up.

That said, I don’t view it as a long term solution for me. I don’t like not really knowing entirely how it works, and I’ve had issues trying to configure the reverse proxy to connect it with a domain name. (I purchased one from Porkbun, which is apparently not supported.) Until I learn a little more, though, I like it.

 

I have recently become more aware of and generally interested in electronics and amateur radio, and it got me thinking. What advantage, if any, would there be to having amateur radio experience, over a simple disaster crank radio/flashlight, in the event of a major natural disaster or some other emergency that leads to a longer delay in power being restored? For the sake of argument, let’s assume you have a generator or battery bank to supply your own electricity.

Maybe made to feel othered via bullying as a kid, so voluntarily isolated in their teens and early twenties?

If so, then yeah, I can certainly see how that would stunt social and emotional development
