I don’t think taller trucks make you less exhausted. It boils down to how comfy the seats are. And cars and smaller SUVs typically have more comfy seats, unless you have a newer truck that boasts a car-like ride and comfort.

As for tips: Check out some videos on how to properly adjust your driving position. Get something for lumbar support if your car doesn’t have it. And take breaks, don’t force yourself to drive all the way in one go.

Every few hours or so, refresh the air in the cabin by opening a window for a few seconds.

This and surveillance pricing are good arguments against the nothing-to-hide-nothing-to-fear crowd, the next time you get into a debate with one.

I like how Privacy Badger replaces tracking icons/widgets. I’m guessing uBO just removes them outright? I haven’t really bothered to check the differences.

On a related note, are the reloadable plastic strings on electric trimmers intentionally designed to unravel within a few uses so you have to keep buying replacements?

I wonder how a corporate product deal would ever be cheaper than FOSS software. Bundled apps perhaps? And maybe central management? And maybe centralized or cloud-based storage and content management?

They are better with their physical privacy (i.e. gated mansions and tall fences), but the ones who aren’t tech-literate (i.e. non tech bros) are likely the same as everyone else, and are probably even worse off than privacy-conscious regular people. I remember Zuck uses Signal, so we know at least the tech bros who are technically literate (and not the ones who only pretend to know what they’re talking about) are aware of their personal privacy.

Aloha Burger! It’s good.

I take them off because I can’t see shit.

QR coding everything. It has it uses and is practical in certain use-cases, but don’t use it everywhere.

I take certification exams that are open book. I still create an index aka cheat sheet because typing it out makes me internalize what I’m reading. It’s also easier to refer to an index of a couple of pages vs several books in a time-bound exam.

A belt-like loofa that you hold on both ends and pull from side to side.

Thunder is cross-platform. For desktop UIs, I prefer Alexandrite because of its 2-column layout option that maximizes screen real estate and allows one-tab browsing.

I chose lemmy.zip because it has similar fed/defed policies as lemm.ee.

• Your saved posts and comments are included in your exported settings along with your subscriptions. I was happy to discover that when I did it yesterday.

• Most instances say where they are based in their instance description. If not, you can do a whois lookup to see the general area they are in. Another option is asking in the meta community of the instance.

• Similar to the second point above, most instance owners are transparent with their infrastructure and the ones who are running small servers as hobby projects usually put it as a disclaimer.

One with your face printed on it.
