Reminds me of the "Banksy on advertising" quote:

People are taking the piss out of you everyday. They butt into your life, take a cheap shot at you and then disappear. They leer at you from tall buildings and make you feel small. They make flippant comments from buses that imply you’re not sexy enough and that all the fun is happening somewhere else. They are on TV making your girlfriend feel inadequate. They have access to the most sophisticated technology the world has ever seen and they bully you with it. They are The Advertisers and they are laughing at you.

You, however, are forbidden to touch them. Trademarks, intellectual property rights and copyright law mean advertisers can say what they like wherever they like with total impunity.

Fuck that. Any advert in a public space that gives you no choice whether you see it or not is yours. It’s yours to take, re-arrange and re-use. You can do whatever you like with it. Asking for permission is like asking to keep a rock someone just threw at your head.

You owe the companies nothing. Less than nothing, you especially don’t owe them any courtesy. They owe you. They have re-arranged the world to put themselves in front of you. They never asked for your permission, don’t even start asking for theirs.

It really is one of my favorite ones

Jaa mitähän ihmettä? I've been to many public saunas in Finland and almost all of them, if not all, prohibit the use of swimsuit/-pants. At least the ones that are in public pools/swimming halls. And the reasoning being as you said, hygiene.

Edit: whoops my bad, you were talking about mixed gender Saunas. You might be correct after all

Fast food charges you around double if you don't use the app.

In the US, I guess? Not where I come from

"GET MAD" at the proper institution/organizations/companies, not your fellow commenter, who is not even denying what you're saying. I'm not saying you're wrong, you're just being a dick about it.

I saved this! Yeah, it seems like a lot of work, but I got inspired again (I had a slight self-hosting burnout and nuked my raspberry setup ~year ago) so I appreciate it. :) Can I ask what hardware you run this on? edit: I just wanted to ramble some more: I just fired up my rPI4 again just last week, setup it with just as barebone VPS with wireguard, samba, jellyfin and pi-hole+unbound (as to not burn myself again :D )

I think I've read somewhere that e.g. hunters try to avoid stressing the animal before killing it, because adrenaline cortisol tastes bad. I could be wrong, though.

Exactly. As an european, I'm seriosly concerned that the mighiest (firepower-wise) country in the world is mimicking the steps that happened in Germany back in the days. edit: as in, descendin to fascism, via public vote.

Nah, it's still referred to as Your Content, just that they can do whatever the fuck they please with it. I think. IANAL.

I actually tried pidgin maybe 6 months ago just for kicks if it could handle whatsapp, signal and telegram, and whaddaya know, it could. It was ugly as hell, but it could be done.

Don't know about best, but I've been running Arch on Raspberry Pi 4 for a few months now. So far I'm having no issues. Changing from the default kernel to rpi kernel went also smoothly.

Yup indeed, it wasn't a pleasant experience. Self-hosting Matrix with all its bridges is kinda nice tho (although a bit lacking).
