Seconded pleas keep doing these.

Good points from other users.

You’re kinda asking the wrong question.

Where to start writing? Wherever you are when you write.

Where to publish? Seems to be what you’re looking for—

You’re likely an unknown author. So you are going to have to figure it out yourself In terms of marketing

Do you just want your stuff out there? You can put it almost anywhere

Do you want people to find you? Then you’ll need to market yourself (and yes I just threw up a little writing that)

It will be up to you to get people to find and read your stuff , sorry but yeah you mostly have to market yourself

So yeah put your page in there when you post your content here, and blue sky, and everywhere. Make a podcast of you reading your stuff, make it easy to share so new people can discover you.

Self published books and print on demand— worked for Andy Weir (the Martian) and Hugh Howey (Silo) and 50 shades of gray

Good luck

This hurts. I feel called out

Excellent use of this!

That headline gave me cancer. Ffs

Kde. I’d love to be able to give some erudite examples of why.

Alas, the default is clean and works for me. It stays out of the way.

I use MacOS at home as I have to support the fam.

Work is windows despite my best efforts to move to Linux, any flavor…

My laptop has macOS and Ubuntu and fedora and win11 (I have a vm problem and I enjoy it)

I wish I could use Fedora full time. I’m really open to whatever gets the work done. I just prefer software were open.

Well son, because of thins like the Hayes Code, mom and I can’t share a bed. You know, …because the children…

We use it at work, or rather I use it to text people at work I like.

Working with info sec people helps. But I explained it and had them read about it and we all got on board.

All you really can do is explain that text (sms) isn’t secure and that Signal is. And let people know you want to use it. But yes I wouldn’t try and force it that generally just annoys people.

You can lead a horse to water, you cannot make it drink.

With my people from we use Signal.

Friends and family stick to text as it too hard to make everyone else change.

Because their friends use text… why change…

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Mammals have to breathe, so they are surfacing from time to time… so roughly they’ll know day from night.

Tides are mostly noticeable near land.

So you have deep sea creatures away from shore. They mostly won’t care about day and night as there’s no difference, with light not penetrating more that about 200 feet.

So below 200 feet, and away from shore you mostly can’t. But also it would not matter as there’s no difference

But if you were a human, in a submarine or a diving vessel where you needed to know, a clock or radio… would be about the options

🎶 this is the soup that never ends

It just goes on and on my friends ….

Well, this here is the best I can do…

…and Bob.

I don’t care!!

Irregardless is not a word, and never will be

Yes I’ll die on THAT hill thank you very much.

The single best thing you can do security wise, is to NOT have any personal data on a web facing server.

Separate the data

Rereading it does look like you are doing the things right; so just audit what is on the public side. - your calendar and tasks- cool

Your photo and docs, do those need to be on there?

they are not accessible on the WAN

If they are on a server that is publicly accessible, please move them to a different location

Otherwise you sound like your doing well

Any newer MBP will be an amazing upgrade from a 2016.

Even a refurbished M2 would be a huge upgrade, what the specs are showing is that the M4 should crush what he has now.

If you have the option, go with MORE RAM;

Save as much money as possible;

Short AA at the end of Aug 2001; you’ll know when to cover.

In Oct 2001 buy AAPL

In 2008 buy bitcoin… keep buying, and WRITE DOWN YOUR PASSWORDS, until it hits $100. Don’t worry about it; just do it.

Ha. Never thought about that. But. Yeah. Yeah it is.

Yep. Dynamic pricing.

Other people have reported it with travel sites when looking at flights, you get different prices on a Mac vs windows.

Vendors of any ilk would love to be able to adjust prices per customer.
