“Honestly, I am completely unsure how to proceed with the pages server.
It might be the best idea to deprecate it.

Codeberg Pages if you don't mind a give-or-take weekly 30 min downtime. GitHub Pages if you do. GitLab Pages if you have a creditcard which they require to verify your identity.

I don't know anything about the film. Just chiming in that it's not because a film does poorly—or anything else for that matter—that it necessarily means it's a bad film, or that the philosophy behind it is bad. Likewise, something being popular or someone being famous is just that, popular or famous. It's not synonymous with good or virtuous. Whether Strange World is or isn't a bad movie, it has no decisive influence on the course of Solarpunk.

Last year I did so by writing the essay “What if I paid for all my free software?” It came across well. Now I'm thinking of ways to reach a broader audience in order to not only be preaching to the choir.

During an inconspicuous math class in my final year of highschool I suddenly had enough of going in front of the classroom to solve a math problem. I love math, was good at it, but doing it live doesn't sit well with mathematical anxiety. When it was my turn the teacher asked “Marcus, want to go in front please?” Then it hit me that that's a question. So I gathered my guts while my heart was racing and replied “Would you mind if I said I'd rather not?” The teacher laughed and said “Yeah that's fine.” My classmates' minds were blown. I didn't need to go in front for the rest of the year with which he made me king. I loved him; we always appreciated each other's humour.

“On Windows 10 PCs without an ESU subscription, however, any security flaws found from that day forward will remain unpatched, making those PCs increasingly vulnerable to online attacks.”

“Windows unpatched […] increasingly vulnerable to online attacks” is a facetious statement since the operating system is inherently malware.

Yes, but Recall is spyware by design posing as a benign feature. This kind of unethical behaviour I vehemently oppose.

If one chats/mails with a person using Windows, despite using secure private protocols, every message will be stored by Microsoft's Windoze Recall. Either I'm missing something but this feature seems like the most grotesque breach in online privacy/security.

What are ways to avoid this except for using obfuscated text?
