Man, the mixed signals on whether or not Musk is in charge of DOGE are giving me whiplash.

I use Technitium DNS server on a mini PC to serve the same function as a Pi-Hole, and it works flawlessly.

Any country that claims to be "morally superior" is lying. There are always compromises.

Another name for the NATO alphabet is the International Radiotelephony Spelling Alphabet or "standard phonetics," and as its name implies it is the standard alphabet for spelling out words via two-way radio. Pilots, mariners, first responders, soldiers, and amateur radio operators around the world all use this alphabet. It's cool to learn because of how many people understand it.

However, it isn't going away, even if NATO collapses.

Kobo is amazing. Their e-readers are also the best choice for loading non-DRM ebooks, such as those you might find from Humble Bundle or StoryBundle.

When do we rise up? Waiting ten days to have a shopping strike feels like minimizing the severity of this crisis.
