Fesshole 🧻I buy autobiographies from charity shops, 'sign' them after googling authors autographs, then donate them to charity shops in other towns. Thatcher my best result yet, bought for £1.50 unsigned, priced at £95 when 'signed'. I'm Robin Hood with a biro.
Looking for recommendations for a #privacy focused #opensource solution for #contactmanagement. Ideally something with flexibility to cater for custom data fields. Running #linux on desktop and #android on mobile atm so sync capabilities would be good but may end up running Linux on mobile eventually. Wondering whether a solution that supports #carddav is the way to go? Open to suggestions and would welcome any boosts. Cheers & let's #degoogle

Moin moin Europe! And we're carefully back online again, with a few exceptions. https://www.lokjo.com First, a huge thanks to https://www.geoapify.com for understanding the situation and delivering tiles while we fix a replacement. There's 3 exceptions, for the moment: - A basic OSM map display. (modern version comes back later) - No satellite images. (if somebody knows a EU provider that would be great) - the feedback form is taken offline. (no time for that) That's all for now.

Read the source; nothing up my sleeves. Just a QR code.
My offer to you -- I will continue to pay for the domain name and web hosting for it, myself. If you find it valuable, you can pay it back by creating your own useful thing for the world and releasing it for free. Let's take back the friendly web, one vexingly-monetized utility at a time!
