I’ve used mailbox.org for the last few years. They are a privacy-focused provider out of Germany. They aren’t restrictive on the app you use, like proton, and offer an integrated PGP-signing solution.

I think I’m overly sensitive because my power is very expensive and my home is getting pretty warm right now!

That’s so much electricity though! That equipment is typically so cheap bc the power draw is nuts. I agree the pi isnt the right move but why burn up so much power when they won’t be using practically any of it, to learn?

I’d suggest a small, used x86-64 mini-pc, throw in 16gb of ram and a HDD. If you dont pay for electricity, like in a dorm, then the old server-grade stuff is the way to go. Plus it will keep you very toasty in the winter.

The mini PC is your best bet. I only have ARM SBCs but they have a lot of limitations. If I needed something new it would likely be a used mini PC. I dont have any suggestions unfortunately. I saw something posted a couple weeks ago that was some university surplus- $30 used mini PC’s, including the case- which will run circles around any ARM SBC. I think shipping was another $30 but still a great deal. Find something like that.

You’d be better off with something that has an EMMC slot (or ideally SATA connection). Running the OS off of an SD card is painfully slow. I’ve also found USB storage to be way more reliable than SD cards, in general. I used an external 4-bay drive connected via usb3 for years and never had issues. Burned through many SD cards over the same period.

Piracy. I couldn’t live with 25%+ of my TV watching time being advertisements. Manually downloading episodes became too much trouble so I setup a Plex/sab/sonars/radarr config on a pi connected to a 4-bay external drive enclosure featuring refurbished HGST 2tb HDDs in an lvm raid-5 config.

Eventually I also substituted my radio with paid Spotify so about the only ads im served are product placements and billboards. Its amazing how much less you’ll spend without ads!

You can use any subdomain for any type of instance but if you see it on lemmy then its federated.

I didnt find anything on my pixel 4a thankfully.

Sorry I didn’t flesh it out… Falsely yelling “fire” is not inherently illegal unless someone gets injured as a result. Millions of people died due to vaccine misinformation spread on social media.

Do you understand why you can’t yell “FIRE” in a crowded theater? Do you think that’s a violation of your first amendment rights?

Was it antiscience to say covid originated in a lab in China?

ok, sure.

Was it antiscience to say 2 weeks to flatten the curve was BS?

That was contingent on half the population not making it their identity to spread disease.

Was it antiscience to say cloth masks were ineffective?

Yes, it’s been proven time and time again that cloth masks reduce transmission and severity.

Was it antiscience to question the long term efficacy of a drug that was not studied for the long term?

Yes, it is antiscience for laymen to question things they don’t understand at all.

Was it antiscience to question the long term side effects of a drug that was not studied for the long term?

Same.

Started out pretty good though!

This is about attempts to stop folks from spreading provably wrong info online that’s killing people. It’s like protecting the free speech of someone yelling “fire” in a crowded theater.

The headline is also overstated. Its a preliminary injunction and of course its from a Trump nominee.

But Judge Terry Doughty, a Trump nominee at US District Court for the Western District of Louisiana, granted the plaintiffs’ request for a preliminary injunction imposing limits on the Department of Health and Human Services, the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention,

Its been working well for me with kbin. Over the last week, while the large instances struggled to stay up and federating, my instance constantly had new content coming in from whoever was still up.

This sounds awesome. Can’t wait to check it out after work!
