Ugh, same exact boat here. Thankfully my partner jumps on the grenade and browses the local FB content and then relays the important/interesting info to me, though :)

Been following this for a while! I’m getting one!

The “joke” is that it’s an issue that people feel compelled to comment on, but the sleeping person can’t. Predictably, most people are blowing straight past this and commenting their opinions, but most of the other replies are joking or whimsical. Yours is straightforward no-nonsense. If I had to guess, I’d say that’s why you’re being singled out.

Is fondant a cake?

Hell yeah now Linux and I both will panic in style

You nitpicked when you incorrectly said straw wasn’t mulch.

Yeah, what the hell? I didn’t watch the video but one time use pads are crypto 101 first day of class kinda thing.

Here’s what you do: go to the store and buy 3-5 dandruff shampoos with different active ingredients and cycle between them every time you wash your hair and face (don’t shy away from smearing the shampoo on your face as well). Also, leave it on there a few minutes before rinsing.

Also vitamin D oil is great for face and beard.

This shampoo is great to add into the rotation. The same company makes a face cream that is super good, too.

Putin would never ban X in Russia, are you crazy?

“Hmm yes, banning my best propaganda tool. This is the move.” - Not Putin

Yeah, I’d assumed it would respect the —metric=false flag when building with docker run, but docker-compose is ostensibly supported and easier to work with. I was able to successfully change other configuration options (such as setting the db to use MySQL instead of the default SQLite) using the docker-compose ‘command’ block, but the metric flag specifically was ignored. It’s entirely possible that this is a bug and not an intentional attempt to hoover up user data. Either way, data collection should be opt-in by default (by law, imo).

I thought I’d give this a shot, but the metrics/data collection flag was turned on by default and when I added a command to my docker-compose to turn them off, it was ignored. Then, I created an account and looked for a way to turn them off in the settings and there was none. You expect people interested in self-hosting OSS to be cool with sending data out of their network every time the server is started, a memo is created, a comment is created, a webhook is dispatched, a resource or a user is created?! Also, the metrics are collected by a 3rd party with their own ToS that could change at any time?

Holy hell, hard pass. I’d rather use a piece of paper.

Your mileage may vary but by credit union frequently sends me life insurance mailers, and until I asked them to disable it, would INFURIATINGLY embed clickable ads in my online checking activity history. They’d probably stop with the mailers if I yelled at them, tho. Overall I agree with your advice to use credit unions over banks.
