We went to a tiny theater in a nearby town for the matinee showing of Superman today and it was delightful. A bunch of old, quiet, respectful people who weren't messing with their phones. And they had subtitles on!

I finally got my copy of Other Networks by @loriemerson! My local book store came through even though I was afraid hope was lost when the publisher went out of business.

I’m here for all the old Apple nostalgia I’m seeing on here in light of what a shit show it’s become in recent years.

No. I don’t ever want to jump on a call. Ever. In my experience, Extroverts (usually unintentionally) take advantage of Introverts on the phone. I find the playing field to be level when everyone has to type.

If I want to go the VPS route but don't want to use Hetzner, what are decent alternatives that are less expensive than DigitalOcean?

And SHOULD I be looking at VPS for #Django?

My goal is to get off of Fly.io.

And while we're at it, if I want to host outside the US, does it matter if the company is US-based vs wherever the server location I select is?

Is it normal to need to verify a new Hetzner account by taking "live" photos of your ID and face? Makes me want to just back away slowly, but everybody seems to like them.

I think I am going to have to start gently mocking my friends and colleagues who use AI-generated extruded media product for things like article illustrations.

My dude, it looks like ass. It looks cheap and tacky and gross. Is that how you see yourself? Is this a cry for help?
