I’ve never had any problem with Mullvad reconnecting after I’ve run out and paid up again, that has worked seamlessly on mine

I’ve got planes and a chisel from late 1800s, some of the best tools I own. The steel of the blades is fantastic, and the feel of the handles after more than 100 years of being handled is fairly unique
You’re dead to me - history, different expert and comedian guest every week, very good
No Such Thing as a Fish - superb trivia show
Sci-Show Tangents - “lightly competitive science knowledge showcase”
A Podcast of Unnecessary Detail - science and math facts around a random topic from 3 very smart people
The Infinite Monkey Cage - science and comedy with Brian Cox and guests
Journey to the Microcosmos - interesting things in our microscopic world
If that’s not a reason to write your dates in a less unhinged format, I don’t know what is.
I have the Flint, I think I paid about $80 for an open box one, it’s easy for a pleb like me to set up. Running Mullvad on it is definitely quicker than on my devices
I’ve been fairly parsimonious with my information for a fair while - I don’t use my real name online except when unavoidable for payment etc, don’t put photos of me anywhere, use social media (other than Lemmy, and I’m not very social on here really!) and I think I have fairly good habits to keep information and habits separated. I alternate between using FF, Librewolf and Mullvad browser for different things, don’t reuse usernames/id’s, use a VPN router at home and have VPNs on my mobile devices, email masks and relays, and where possible pay with virtual cards etc. I think my most unique identifier, last time I checked with the EFF site, was the size and resolution of my screens. I’m not really sure how much data there is to collect about me past the mundane, as I don’t really associate with anyone in the real world online, and almost exclusively use signal in the real world.
I have a VPN router, and will either use Mullvad browser with no other tabs open (and obviously all cookies freshly cleared etc) or maybe a vanilla FF on a VM. With all my details being nonsense, a unique relayed email, and the browser essentially completely resetting after every use, I doubt they can find out much useful about me
I figure that if I can keep it pretty isolated, they’ll only get “scrolls marketplace in SE uk” out of it - I’m never going to look at the feed or have “friends”.
Massively. My first manoeuvre when I go in someone’s house is to look at their bookcase, and judge them accordingly.
Here’s my favourite car YouTube, awesome videos
The Nikon siteis less of a cookie nightmare, and arguably more interesting, but thanks for bringing this to my attention, the photos are stunning!
Daphne Did It by Cleopatrick has been on repeat in my brain most of the time this week
“I threw that shit before I even walked in the room!” One of my other favourites is the pool hall fight, where the pump actually smacks the actor he’s fighting, and the guy loses his cool. Then there’s a swift, unplanned cut, and suddenly he’s fighting someone else entirely. It’s all those little pastiches of shoddy movie-making that you can miss, such a good movie!

Get a lamb tagine recipe down, and work out all the trimmings, it’s pretty easy, and it makes a proper spread with pretty minimal effort. The tagine is the only real cooking, and it’s pretty relaxed. Then do a decent couscous (or CPU’s void as autocorrect would have it), with lots of stock, butter, and zatar, get some decent flat breads, and then bung out a whole load of mezze bits like humous/olives/stuffed bell peppers etc. It looks like loads of effort, but it’s actually cruisy, and it tastes fantastic
I’ve only just discovered Darktable, so I was a bit reticent to call it one of my favourites, but for the relatively minimal editing I actually do, it does seem to be pretty ideal. I only use Digikam for organisational stuff really - do you find that Darktable’s filing/cataloguing ability is good enough that you only use the one program?
I’ve been liking Digikam and Rawtherapee (which is an awful name for the record) for photo gubbins.
Is it by smashing stuff together until they break something fundamental, and the universe goes dark?
