Ah ok, that makes a lot of sense.

Thank you for taking the time to construct such a helpful comment.

I keep seeing posts pop up that I relate to, then I look down and it's from an ADHD community. Either these are experiences everyone has... Or I have undiagnosed ADHD

As a Brit, it's comforting to know that other countries are also sliding towards fascism. At least we won't be alone!

I just got back from seeing Moulin Rouge. It was quite good.

They're not false, but they don't show the whole picture, as one paragraph seldom can.

If you are referring the action in Runcorn, of which they are said to have "stormed, scaled, and occupied" the premises of the military equipment manufacturer at 4.30am, I wouldn't say that counts as violence. I would say that violence is typically considered harm to a person or people, not windows and drones.

We have 'freedom of expression' as outlined in the 1998 Human Rights Act. The HRA says that we are free to express ourselves as we see fit so long as it is within the confines of the law.

We have relatively strong hate speech laws as outlined in the 1986 Public Order Act, which makes it an offense to "[make] threatening, abusive or insulting words or behaviours that causes, or is likely to cause, another person harassment, alarm or distress" and "language that encourages terrorism".

Recently a non-violent pro-Palestine, activist group (Palestine Action) was prescribed as a terrorist group, making it illegal to support any of their actions.

You can use a VPN to negate this check. For now...

I don't see the issue here, it says Fast Internet Switch. Why would it lie like that?

I am so happy to have lucked out with this community. Well done to all involved!

It has been a while since I used Usenet, so instead of giving you possibly out of date info I will just link to this FYFM section which has way more info than I can give.

In particular I found this guide to be fairly easy to follow.

As for using a VPN: it can't hurt!

Does anyone have any tips for keeping going even when you're finding it hard to get started climbing?

I'd very much appreciate any tips at all.

 

Hello peoples,

I am looking for tips on how to make my self-hosted setup as safe as possible.

Some background: I started self-hosting some services about a year ago, using an old lenovo thin client. It's plenty powerful for what I'm asking it to do, and it's not too loud. Hardware wise I am not expecting to change things up any time soon.

I am not expecting anyone to take the time to baby me through the process, I will be more than happy with some links to good articles and the like. My main problem is that there's so much information out there, I just don't know where to start or what to trust.

Anyways, thank you for reading.
