I use Jami and Session. Interested to check out SimpleX Chat though.

Celery makes all soups taste pro 👌

I’m afraid I can’t offer any recommendations but I just wanted to say how beautiful it is to think of you keeping track of each others heartbeats while you’re apart. That’s love

If you subscribe to hashtags for your interests from a Pixelfed account I’m sure you will find artists and art that you like. There are some wonderful artists on the Fediverse and it’s how I find most of the artists and art that I like these days.

Some that I particularly like right now:

• @rmiddleton.art@pixelfed.art - abstract expressionism

• @humanum@mastodon.art - digital watercolour ‘bio-fantasy’

• @atomicker@mstdn.ca - 1900s Japanese Shin-hanga prints from various artists

I sometimes see artists offering prints but I’m sure most artists would be approachable about making them for you if you’d like to buy one.

Unless the people around you were also doing the same then I think you would still be exposed to polluted views and knowledge.

I was just borrowing it when I made the rip and was also using a borrowed drive to read it, so I’d rather try and fix the files I currently have. I tried ripping it more than once when I had it, so I just settled for what I got - only getting around to fixing it now!

I copied it using a borrowed external optical drive.

I’m not sure how to tell if I have all the data but the size of the directory contents is around 3.5 gigabytes which seems appropriate for length of video (1h45m).

Will try your suggestion in mpv 👍

People with an appetite for maintaining large long-term debt are ideal customers for them.

That’s good to know.

All of my own drives are encrypted except for a USB stick that I use for transferring files to a windows machine.

Hi America, the people around the world living through famines, wars and genocides would like to have a quiet word with you.

Would ‘overwrite with zeroes’ in gnome Disks work?

Small.

Far away.

Sounds about right.

It’s also kind of nice though.

It is an honest question with zero subtext. You’re free to mock me if you want but the post is intended for honest and sincere discussion about people’s lives.
