Right now, my mum is developing dementia (we’re waiting on tests to help with a definitive diagnosis). Her memory is very bad, and getting worse. She can forget what she said in one sentence by the time she is part way through the next. If it wasn’t terrible it would be amazing - like she fully 100% has no idea what she said and sometimes will even argue that she didn’t say that thing. So I think it’s completely within the realms of possibility that he doesn’t remember.
I also think that he doesn’t care enough about any of this to even register the information as worth remembering in the first place. He’s a shitty cunt regardless of the objective assessment of his mental state.

I had a host of symtpoms that could be attributed to low testosterone, or depression, or a couple of other things. I went to my GP and asked for blood tests, to include testosterone & kidney function.
My testosterone is fine (upper end of normal range) so NOW my GP & I can direct efforts towards what the actual problems are rather than wonder about low testosterone as a cause.
It’s a reasonable thing to have tested as low testosterone for men over 50 most definitely can be a source of problems.
1·13 days agoI fully recommend Cachyos. I run it on my HP z620 (Xeon e5-2667 v2, GTX 1070ti) and it’s great. Best distro I’ve used so far (30 years using Linux)
They asked for false or exaggerated stories…
When I was 19 - 21 I sold drugs in the club scene. Early 90s. I did it Thursday - Sunday. I made £1k per week minimum.
It was not fun but … I couldn’t make surviving money with the shitty jobs I had (I’d been working since I was 15) and this was easy. It was 90s clubs, they practically sold themselves.
Decent money but lots of stress.
2·17 days agoI’m also on the search for a different phone that is more open and onto which I can install de-googled android or linux. Maybe Jolla phone? or Fairphone? I don’t really want (or like tbh) a Pixel.

So Canta (https://github.com/samolego/Canta) is the app that uninstalls and Shizuku (https://shizuku.rikka.app/) is the app that allows Canta to access the system.
Together they’re basically just a UI ‘easy to use’ alternative to direct adb via terminal. Canta displays a list of all apps on the phone system conveniently marked with recommendations for removal - e.g. Recommended | Unsafe | System | Advanced | Expert
I know it’s more work to setup however for ease of use after that I like it. There are lists available (on Github for example) of apps that have been installed on most phone models and I would use these lists anyway if I was using adb+terminal. Now using Canta IT checks the lists, and provides me a visual interface to the apps that are installed on my phone, compared to the compiled lists, and then marks them … then it lets me remove or not as I see fit.
In summary, it’s seems to be a nice(?kind of) UI to adb designed for ease of use.
I stumbled upon Canta & Shizuku which when combined can enable removal of (system level) apps on Android devices. I haven’t gone crazy removing stuff however I am following cautiously the lists of recommended and safe apps.

It’s a domain I’ve had for 15 years (I keep renewing) and I registered with 123-reg.If you 're in the EU definitely check out Bunny. They’re based in Slovenia. I used their free trial, to test it all out. After that their pricing is competitive, and mostly if you’re a single user homelab type you’ll pay nothing. At least, that’s been my experience for the past 8 months. My use falls well under their provided no charge tier.
I looked at using nginx however I liked what I read and saw of Caddy (it seemed easier for me). I don’t do anything very clever and Caddy is working great for me.
*I’m not associated with them other than to be a customer. Prior to switching to Bunny I used Cloudflare free level but I wanted to get away from anything associated with the USA and their (lack of ) data protection laws.
@dingleberrylover@lemmy.world I have a static IP provided by my ISP. I own my own domain name. I use BunnyCDN to manage my DNS.
On my server I run Jellyfin and reverse proxy with Caddy, I also run Fail2Ban. Caddy has built in SSL certification.
After I set it all up (which took me a few tries to get it all right as I was learning on the go) it just runs with no apparent problems. I check logs and monitor it regularly however so far I haven’t had any problems.
The Jellyfin address is shared only to a few family members.
I’m in the EU so GDPR applies and none of the involved companies is datamining my stuff. Their policies are to be non-invasive.
I used a 3040 to run a vaultwarden install and a web server. I switched to something more powerful (more ram, more ssd, faster CPU) and added jellyfin, a file server, and some *arr apps. I still have the 3040, thinking about putting pihole on it.
I’ve been cutting my own hair for 30 years. I’m pretty good at it now but it’s still not easy (I’m also autistic). i use ear plugs to block the sound of the electric clippers and I just try to get it over with quickly. I don’t do anything fancy, keep it short and neat, and if I mess up I’m okay with shaving it all off. blank slate haha

26·2 months agoThe US. I’m Scottish, 56 years old. I’ve been tot he US many times when I was younger, first time when I was 17 for just about 6 months.
I took my kid to the original Coheed & Cambria Neverender in 2008 in Manhattan when he was 15.
I made the decision to never go to the US again during Trump’s first term when they implemented the Muslim ban. My good friend is Scottish Muslim. He had a holiday booked in the US for him and his family and had to cancel it. I can’t stomach racism or any of the hate shit.
Seeing what’s happening now simply reaffirms that I made the correct & right choice.
I installed Cachyos in June this year after years of Mint (Cinnamon).
It was a zero problem install and everything works with my hardware. I chose KDE and it runs with Wayland perfectly. it’s the best distro I’ve used since i started with Linux in 1995. So my experience with Arch is excellence so far. pacman is already my favourite package manager.
