I 100% agree, and hope that remains to be an option. But also... things can change, and they can change fast. We are all only a few days of missed meals or missed mortgage payments from having very different standards.
This is interesting as I've not even heard of Floorp and alternatives have been such a hot topic the last month between manifest v3 and firefoxes updated terms fiasco.
Can I ask, what for you had you opt for floorp vs the more commonly mentioned alternatives like Librewolf, Waterfox, etc.?
I've been checking this site on and off from Europe for about a month. Can someone who knows more than me explain the expected timeline for what remains?
I feel like it jumped up into the mid 30%s after only a month or so and then stagnated for weeks.
Now it seems to have jumped again. But I guess I’m wondering at what sort of percentage does everything go to shit (not that it isn't already!). Are there points where there is a no turning back or civil war becomes inevitable, etc.? Or does it hit a certain percentage where it will jump to 100% overnight due to certain protections being removed.
I guess I’m struggling to wrap my head around what I’m seeing, what it looks like between 40% and 100% and how quickly this might happen?
Even a guide somewhere on the net that breaks it down would be great.
There is an Organic Maps ios app which I use to mostly good effect. Occasionally have to fall back to Google maps and then I make a note to update OSM with the details missing where possible later.
Thanks so much for sharing this Bookwyrm is on my radar to try (currently use storygraph). I've been looking for ways to contribute to the open source community as a non-coder so def going to check out bookbrainz. Freedom of information is one of my biggest passions and this goes hand in hand with those goals as they form the backbone of meaningful archival efforts.
This looks great. Thanks so much for your work on this and sharing with us.
What in your opinion sets your software apart from the other options you mention?
I have recently setup dockers for plex, immich, nextcloud and paperlessngx but have yet to look at longterm maintenence inc. things like auto updates (I know to avoid on immich).
As someone who prob knows the options inside and out - would you recommend your option to this relative newbie or do you think one of the other options might be a better place to start?
Thanks for the reply. That makes sense to me, part of me balks at meeting in the middle with such extremes already in play especially given that even these numbers will still be seen as nigh poverty enforced by evil socialist to the ultra wealthy.
Yeah I can see that, very interesting example. I have to think about that more as I'm already thinking of loads of similar examples. I guess at the end of the day a 90-99% tax above $x would still be "fair" but it def is a different perspective on ultra wealth that might not necessarily be "stolen."
So zero critique but to me these numbers still seem insurmountably huge. I wonder what makes $10/100 million your cut off points?
I ask because it's hard for me to imagine how one individual can amass $100 million in wealth without theft from those actually producing value. But I’m also aware that somewhere along the way actual lines have to be drawn and don't necessarily have my own metric for where that should be.
Kids are easy to manipulate in general. But kids raised in this environment are a predators dream come true.
They are told they are sinners from birth and therefore unlovable outside of god's infinite generosity of murdering his own kid. They are told whatever happens to them is for a reason and doesn't need to "make sense" as it makes sense to god. They are taught never to speak out against "gods anointed" and see everyone around them they trust speak of this pastor figure like they are a god.
Predators like these pastors know there is a low chance they will ever talk. Beyond that they know they will be "forgiven" if they are caught a lot of the time. Thinking of that viral clip a couple of years ago of a pastor being given a standing ovation for "bravely coming forward and confessing sexual sin" [r*ping a 14yr old]
The whole thing is a god damn mess and the sooner we are done with it the better.
Psychotherapist in the UK here. I cannot stress enough that many of these services are quite predatory both on the therapist and clients. Additionally many do not vet their therapists properly.
I don't know where you are in the EU but your country should have regulating bodies. Here in the UK we have BACP, BPS, COSCA etc. All of which have online directories that let you search by speciality, filter for online/in-person etc. In the UK (and I've heard this is true in some other places in Europe but not sure where) you do NOT have to be qualified to call yourself a therapist or counselor so going with someone outside of these regulatory bodies often means you are doing therapy with someone that did a weekend online course. It is also why these online services are full of people you don't want to be working with.
Before COVID, in the UK we were required to have specialist additional training to work via phone/online but since COVID it's a bit of a wild west. It is substantially different working online than in person - that can be a very good thing... But it can also be a very bad thing too.
My advise is find a regulatory body, search their directory and look for people who specialize in exactly what you want to work in. Many will tick a box as one of 100 things they can work with - ignore those and look for people that in the description talk about neurodiversity etc.
Oh and finally, good practice is to offer clients a 15-20 min call so you can explain how you work and help them get an idea of if they'd like to work with you. Take advantage of this and talk to 2-4 people first before picking someone. The number 1 metric for positive outcomes in therapy is how well you connect to your therapist, so don't compromise on that.
If you would like more pointers feel free to ask, I don't want to overshare info that isn't relevant.
I searched high and low and couldn't see anything to suggest it does. The screen caps of searches on it seemed to be based on metadata or tags so I'm guessing not. Either way the price point for me is way too high unfortunately discount or not. Will stick with self-hosted immich as my plan to degoogle from drive and photos.
I 100% agree, and hope that remains to be an option. But also... things can change, and they can change fast. We are all only a few days of missed meals or missed mortgage payments from having very different standards.
