whynotzoidberg,

Had a few ideas for ya:

2 coins

A fake AirTag

A couple pieces of chiclets gum

Coiled wire or string

Fresh air (or a fart), in a tiny ziploc bag

A tiny hair doll

Two very tiny hair dolls

Let me know if you need any more!

whynotzoidberg,

To add, logic unfortunately doesn’t really help illogical fears.

whynotzoidberg,

Don’t forget that sunscreen can be expensive depending on your destination. Going to a family or friends house and the beach? NBD. Flying to Cancun and into a resort? That on prem sunscreen is gonna cost ya mucho dinero compared to BYO.

Suggestions for an iOS News app (or way) that doesn't track (much) data ?

Hi there, I’m quite new to this digital hygiene thing. I try to avoid apps on my phone that tracks useless data for their initial purpose. How do you guys read news ? Would love a “respectful” app that doesn’t track too much data, but I’m open to any solution. Would like to browse international and french news.

whynotzoidberg,

I’ve been absolutely loving my FreshRSS and NetNewsWire set up. Even my local news is easily accessible in a feed for me, now.

Got my non-tech spouse on board, too. She’s been liking it.

whynotzoidberg,

NetNewsWire supports multiple methods for accounts – local, various cloud services, and self-hosted. And it is free. I highly recommend someone interested in RSS check the app out and subscribe to a few feeds.

Looking for some starter feeds to sub? Check out Feedspot’s RSS directory.

Hosting your own FreshRSS instance is totally optional, and is absolutely a proper option for someone privacy-focused. It doesn’t have to be a big, scary monster – simple options exist, e.g., using fly.io to host FreshRSS, as someone wrote about on this blog.

whynotzoidberg,

You forgot to talk about crypto in your post.

Seriously, it’s like the Crypto Corral over there. At least last I checked.

whynotzoidberg,

I think you can find extremists on all platforms. But the thing that really turned me off is that 9/10 posts had to do with crypto. It’s just not my bag, and the folks on Nostr embrace it (even the platform itself, allowing bitcoin payments over the lightning network).

whynotzoidberg,

I’ve heard and repeated this one as, “It’s only temporary, unless it works.”

I'm being harassed by mosquitoes, how do i kill them all?

To my knowledge there’s no stagnant water on my property, I’ve run water through all my ptraps, and I’m careful to not leave doors open. Yet at any given time there’s at least 3 in my house. I can’t sleep, i can’t sit on the couch, i can’t exist in the fear of being sucked dry....

whynotzoidberg,

I didn’t see it mentioned specifically — Mosquito Barrier is a black garlic-based spray that works super well. I’ve used it at high concentrations to handle a yard.

I also use Essentria IC3, another non-toxic-to-mammals spray. Works better than the Mosquito Barrier, I think.

Both are safe for people and pets, and I think both smell pretty decent to boot.
