Yeah, "Android" it's a given. I'm tempted to do what a friend of mine did with using a "stupid phone" for telephony and a small device (he uses an iPad) for non-phone things. It's just a big step to make such a change, and I'm ankle deep in changes (headfirst) at the moment.

I plan to do that up-to and including ditching M$ Windows. I'm just trying to get through the immediate fiscal situation we have. I do already use duckduckgo as my search. We just have to get buy about six months.

@steamdeck.com makes a HUGE difference in my attitude. If I can play the games I want on my client, and if I'm working and learning already on *nix, I really don't have to care. But my wife is dependent on Windows, so I'm mostly looking for her to tire of it.

Yeah, I went to time-out on the Nazi Bar and I simply never went back.

I wasn't aware. I'll have to check that out. I don't want to be a "pro", as such. I just have the odd goal of *NOT* having 50k "followers" for which I am really only interested with a handful. :) Thank you.

Yeah, I only have two concerns: 1) an accurate representation of those with whom I actually interact, and 2) permanent removal of bad actors. "Unfollow" neatly means #1, but isn't offered. Blocking for #2 only solves for bad actors I can identify, while doing nothing about eyeballs on my feed.

Of my last three flights, the first of them was to see my dying dad. Second was the last time I saw mom alive. Last trip home was to my mom's funeral. "What I wore" to make other people squeezed in the flying germ tube feel comfortable? I had no thought space for that.

Loose, comfortable clothing. I won't ruin them if they get puked on is a bonus. Fuck that guy flying First Class anyway. Asshole.

To be fair, ferrets have to hump the spine up to support it which then forces their odd running gait. But even for knowing that, I still go, "D'awww!"

So far I have only blocked "gimme money." I'm pretty sure one of my followers watches to tell another account to solicit, but I don't have the means to shed those without "punishing" people I don't know for not chatting with me.

Impeach, convict, remove... PLEASE? Going for a third impeachment is nice, but I'd really like the convict and remove to go with it this time.

... interaction. But I don't want to exclude future potential interaction. As a point in fact, at the Nazi Bar I kept my follower count around 200 and I didn't bother to trim it until one of the Nazis pointed out how "low" my follower count was. I took that as my cue to trim it more.

As an example, I'm interested in what you post so I do a follow of your account. I like your messages, but I'm too shy to reply. But something you say is interesting "enough." You'll never hear it, as you muted me.

Why will you see a US flag backwards on a uniform or painted on a vehicle?
Stars always lead. Sen. Mark Kelly is one of those stars.

I do wish I had more control to remove followers without blocking.
