Did you hear about the petition to stop ISPs from traffic shaping Pingu content?

They’re campaigning for net nootrality. 🐧

kinda kink related 

@masklayer If you think you'll use it, I don't see why not. I spent a while on mine, only to hardly ever need/want to send it to anyone.

That, and it turned out I'm actually pretty vanilla (up for trying most things though!).

if a bird had bed head, would it be called nest crest?

Sigh... I miss having a phone I that I had some semblance of control over.

Having root and being able to block things in the devices own hosts file...

THIS is why I prefer open source software.

This is pretty much constantly phoning home, and I can't find which app it is. No errors showing up in logcat either, if I block it.

@masklayer I know the feeling. I don't think I have for almost 4 years now. D:

Interesting side-effect, that person's toots disappear from your interactions/notifications page. Even after unblocking and letting them refollow.

Oh! So, on the birbsite, if you had a locked account and wanted a follower to stop following you, you'd block then unblock that person.

Does that work on here?

Anyone want to test it? :P

I wish mobile phones were as free as desktops and laptops. Like, so you can just put whatever OS you want on them.

Sure, Android has custom ROMs and the like, but idk. It's not quite the same.

I'm not talking full-on FOSS (FOSH?) phone, because people have tried and failed with those. But something along those lines.

@noiob No problem! The QC can be a little lacklustre, but nothing that can't be fixed upon arrival.

I recommend it. :D

@noiob Thanks! It's an Anne Pro, which is a copy of the Pok3r keyboards, if I recall correctly. Got aftermarket keycaps on it tho'. Better picture of it in my header photo. :3

Board is from banggood, keycaps from aliexpress.

Fun evening ahead. Reinstalling Debian onto my desktop computer after an rsync went awry and pretty much deleted everything.
