one man’s utopia is another’s dystopia This is true, but there are universal goods that anyone who isn’t antisocial can agree on like a livable climate, everyone having food, shelter, and safety. At least I choose to believe that. I get the point about parents and long-term thinking. That’s a whole thing, they are making it so hard to just live that you’re so busy and tired just doing the daily struggle lots of people don’t have time to think or plan or organize.

If you want to improve things you can’t wait around for a good moment or depend on the involvement of the depoliticized and hopeless to join in. You can just do things. There are other people doing things, too and you can find them. The change you make can inspire some others too, but the disaffected will always be frustrating to see and deal with. There will always be more to do but the thing is to keep trying to move toward the ideal even if it’s just by inches and there’s miles to go, it’s the long haul
having a friend host my nextcloud instance (badly) since i moved and can now only get starlink, which is not amenable to hosting things accessible outside the home network. lots of things to take care of before building a tunnel out to that so i can self-host things again. using nabu casa for the home assistant stuff in the interim

Yes - why BSD, cousin?

Sweet, always happy to hear about a new project like that. I have enjoyed getting to know and use NextCloud these last few months. If Sync-In can stick around for a few years and fill out it’s offerings, I’ll definitely check it out.

The States are cooked, and the world is going to have to pick up the slack.

I find haggling despicable, if someone is trying to get more than time/effort+value cost just because they can/are bored/find it fun. If it’s between people actually disagreeing on the value, there’s reason for discussion but more often it’s just a bullshit tactic
