Exactly, I doubt the person or persons who developed ICEBlock are getting tons of income from the project compared how much it costs to host and run the project, but the project is immediately creating a positive impact in society.

Out here just rawdogging that code.

The hysteria ensuing would dominate the night

A lot easier said than done for most of us.

and as far as I’m aware, I would probably be unable to buy a PC or console ever again.

I don’t have any suggestions but I am so, so sorry and I really hope things turn around for you for the better.

Do firefighters and police own the means of production??

Someone doesn’t know the definition of socialism. At best these are social services.

Also police literally have a long history of violently putting down unionization efforts despite having a union themselves.

The Opposite. The opposite of every instinct.

George Costanza wasn’t wrong.

The problem with some of these is that once you did them you would end just being extra-judicially targeted yourself by your ICE coworkers…

You don’t want to end up like Gomer Pyle getting beaten with socks full of soap. Your coworkers will know your name and have tools to find out more info on you. Don’t turn yourself into a massive target unless you’re comfortable with that.

Weed ain’t no hard drug

I know you’re out there somewhere Nicole

lmao, The Fediverse Chick!

But you can’t self-host it??? Blaspheme! /s

Just kidding, nice to know there’s something out there.

There’s also Duolicious which is similarly free and without ads but there was literally no one within a hundred miles of me and most of the people using it were about half my age so it felt fruitless to pursue.

EDIT: same with Alovoa… nobody within 100 miles…

You’re welcome, I’ve just actually been waiting on an opportunity to share this info lmao

Plentyoffish mostly stinks but still has a free tier where you can message one person a day.

Also, on the page where you look at people who have viewed/liked you, the photos are blurred but if you use the Web Developer Inspection Tool you can see the unblurred photo:

Right click on one of the images of who you want to see and in the dropdown menu click “Inspect”:

The Web Developer tools will pop up and should auto-locate you to the image in question. In Firefox you can just hover over the image location and view a preview of the image. You can also right click on the image location and “Open Link in New Tab” to view it.

From here, you can usually find them in your list of potential matches, in your “meet me” swipes, or in the recently online list. This way, if someone swipes right on you, you can find them without paying and can decide to match or message.

Cheers and good luck!

Brother, can I get some pixels to go with my dessert?

despite risk to Trump relations

This is where we are at, not risk to US relations, a risk to relations with Emperor Trump.

We are fully cooked, well-done so to speak.

I remember the days of high quality fansubs by people who were just doing it for free because they loved it.

Those still exist and still give you a better consumer experience than these fucking dogshit streaming services.

The soundtrack is still one of my favorites. I loved early Jean-Pierre Jeunet films like Delicatessen and City of Lost Children, so I was skeptical of the film at first because it seemed so normal in comparison. Turned out to be his best film by far.

The OG caked up MILF.

Or the police procedural mystery deadpan comedy A Touch Of Cloth!
