“due to bad experiences, I don’t work with scammers. I don’t want scammers to contact me.”

“but how do you know they’re scammers? what if the scammer does good work?”

Been really enjoying this terminal called foot.

It's replaced alacritty for me, and has working blurred transparency with tmux and neovim.

I know AI plugins and plugin managers are still considered in vogue for #neovim, but have any #plugin makers or managers taken a stance against AI?

After trying LazyVim I wanted to get away from some aspects of it, and JuneGunn's vim-plug (which I used to use all the time) appears to be sponsored by an AI terminal. I may try packer, but any other plugin managers I should look at?

Curious about what the experience has been like for anyone buying a #Linux device from Star Labs. Was it worth it? I'm currently looking at their tablets since I've always wanted a decent Linux tablet, doubling as a light work station with a Bluetooth keyboard.

I've been rereading the Belgariad, where fantasy racial stereotypes play a huge role in the story. Like 99% of the time you know who is the good guy or the bad guy based on their race, all ostensibly human. But then I just unlocked memories of Clan of the Cave Bear, and also another pulp fantasy literally called "The White Power", both of which were unreasonably horny and problematic for a high school library.

Does anyone have any suggestions on a domain name provider that is #Canada based? I have a couple of domains up for renewal on an american provider and I'm thinking about transferring them.

Hey fellow Canadians, get familiar with local mom and pop shops, local coffee roasters, local farms that sell fresh produce and chicken eggs, and maybe also Asian grocery stores and little Britain type stores while you're at it.

American products are about to get more expensive.
