I can’t even remember, (very) expensive food is wasted on me. I enjoy a quality meal, but the top tier stuff just doesn’t make any exceptional or special impression with me. It’s just good food.

Left because I was doing three jobs as one person. They couldn’t hire a replacement with that job description (surprised Pikachu face). My new job wasn’t as exciting as I thought it would be, so I got hired back in a properly defined job and that’s been working out fine.
Mark Felton did a 6 episode series on YT on how the alleged burnt bodies of Hitler and Eva Braun found by the soviets, are actually plants.
Not that Hitler survived the war or anything, they were just buried elsewhere nearby, probably in a civilian mass grave, to prevent the soviets from parading the real bodies around.
There are devices that will cool a drink (can of soda or a beer) to ‘ice cold’ ( I assume something like 5°) in 60 seconds. I guess this sort of answers your question? The full answer is probably not that it is technically impossible, but that the practical use is largely limited to drinks.
Self hosted matomo works well for me. Small site, I just want to have a bit of an idea about what is popular and where visitors come from. I’ve had it installed for ages and incremental updates work fine.
I hear that matomo can get resource heavy if your site draws large amounts of visitors. Which makes sense, but it might be something to take into account, and maybe install it on a separate (virtual) machine.
Found the sysadmin
Because I like small diagrams and schematics. Doing that in an app, especially on a phone, is tricky. And I find that structuring my thoughts on paper just works better than doing it digitally straight away.
There are degrees of monitoring. This is basically my approach:
That is basically it. A lot of it is being around, available and approachable. It’s not perfect, but it has several layers of protection, and is built around creating trust and teaching valuable media skills.
If I had to pick one, I’d say the ‘no internet devices in bedrooms’ would be the most valuable one. Because of that, I know what games my kids play, they can deconnect at night, and it’s fairly easy to enforce.
Yeah, but not models that are trained on data that raises copyright concerns, which is currently the case.
‘People’ in this respect are also the owners of media sites.
De-escalate emotional tension. Don’t get personal. Don’t make sweeping statements or promises in the heat of the moment.
The larger danger is the erosion of kids’ privacy. People are so panicked about all the dangers out there, and there are so many monitoring tools available to parents and educators, that it’s no wonder that kids develop trust issues and/or are afraid to take up responsability.
I say this as a dad of two teenagers: the kids are allright. Love them, hug them, talk to them, show interest in their lives. Don’t use surveillance as a substitute.
I run my own Mastodon instance, but for Lemmy it seemed more logical to join an existing instance that aligned with my interests. I wouldn’t be adverse to abandoning my self-hosted Mastodon for a shared instance, but I would prefer a small instance run by and for people I know, rather than one of the huge ones.
Definitely the former. The difference is not worth the price hike for me. I guess it’s like with really high performance cars. I appreciate that a Ferrari f40 is in a league of its own and truly extraordinary, I just can’t be bothered to spend that much money on it.
I guess it’s the same with many things. The difference between low quality and high quality is really noticeable and usually comes with a substantial cost. But the difference in cost between high (even exceptional) quality and top-tier truly one-of-a-kind is usually very high, and not worth it for me.
