It’s been a bit over a month since I switched to a #selfhosted #SearXNG instance for my main search engine.
I really like it. It’s probably less private than #Kagi since the downsteam search engines can track my server’s API calls. But I am still a complete sucker for #selfhosting.

I merged this PR into one of my #selfhosted projects today and boy did it ever feel good.
I opened up the project because a dependency I was using got deprecated and the inspiration struck.

I couldn’t agree more with this. I love #selfhosting and have ~15 services running ln my LAN, about half of which I wrote.
But it’s not a solution to our internet troubles any more than my brother builind his own lawn mower is the beginning of a solution to John Deere’s business practices.
Self hosting is an extremely fun hobby that, even if we get the right laws in place to solve our internet woes will just remain an extremely fun hobby. https://tldr.nettime.org/@tante/113527082578387916

I filled in the #Mozilla survey and you should too. The sad thing is that of you like #Firefox and want them to focus on making a good browser instead of #AI bs, then like me you will need to select “Other” and write it in.

This man and his family welcomed the Nazi seizure of power and greatly admired #Hitler.
By the time Solmitz wrote his letter to the local party leader, Jews were banned from the civil service, banned from owning farmland or engaging in agriculture, had their university enrolments severely limited, Jewish doctors were not permitted to treat “aryans”, they were excluded from full citizenship rights, and a process of denaturalisation had already begun. Not to mention the staggering amounts of violence faced by Jews in the streets.
Yet still, Solmitz still could not understand why his local Nazi leader hated him so much.
And he wasn’t a complete outlier. Many conservative, nationalist Jews in Germany supported the Third Reich as it came to power.
I wonder how many modern incarnations of Friedrich Solmitz there are in the world right now.

Retired Major Friedrich Solmitz was a middle class conservative nationalist from Hamburg. When the Nazis seized power he volunteered for and received a position working in Air Raid Protection for his block.
In this position he did everything the regime asked of him including implementing the “Aryan paragraph” which meant excluding all Jews from any positions of responsibility.
In 1934 he wrote a letter to his local #Nazi party leader complaining about the repeated and direct criticism Solmitz regularly received from the leader. Solmitz could not understand why he was so often singled out for such harsh criticism.
…. Solmitz was Jewish.
I think about him a lot.

I have landed on a new note taking system: not organizing them. I’ve seen other people on here advocating for it, and so far I like it.
Rather than spend time worrying about folders, tags, or anything else; I just write stuff and when I need it later I search.
[#]Obsidian has been my app of choice here and so far I really like it.

The #PWHL #YouTube channel no longer has games. And given that they play in the middle of the night for my timezone, I guess that means the season’s over for me.
This is very disappointing. It must be some broadcast rights BS, but I hope they get it sorted so that I can actually begin watching games again.
Or at least put their own highlight packages out, so I can see something.

I’m late to the party, but #Taken2 almost had an amazing idea and was close to brilliance.
Neeson’s character and his wife get #Taken and after giving the bad guys the slip, his daughter must help him.
This is almost brilliant. No offence to Famka Janssen but we didn’t need Lenore on the trip.
It should have been a father, daughter trip when Bryan gets taken and his daughter must save him.
Instead she basically just brings him a gun and then rocks the wheel when they make their getaway.
So Kim gets to be a bad ass, but it’s mostly as Bryan’s sidekick.
It would have been better if he was just a hostage and she saved him by discovering on the fly that she’s a total rock star.
Then in Taken 3 (which I haven’t seen yet), they can do their Batman and Robin routine.
