yes!, i knew polishing it would attract customers !

you'll have to scratch off the label i put there saying its mine, but you can try if you want, there are no lawyers on mars yet, however a rent has to be payed to me for just keeping it or claiming in public that this pebble was yours and as soon as lawyers arrive, we'll enforce the due payments to be collected ;-)

you're late, its already sold out that little planet lol

a ~~th~~ i ~~ng~~ is bad

hey there, i did something similar, but i run my own email server and setup the alias system by myself using postfix and dovecot. cost for domain depends in the domain, the cheapest one i have is 7$ per year. running a mailserver on a vm is like 5$/month or more. i also immediately move my emails from that vm to a raspberry pi running in my home, so i have physical access at any given time and i can literally use the cheapest vm as data is only stored on it for a few seconds.

i currently maintain my list of aliases in the "tables" app on a nextcloud instance on that same raspberry pi, so i can add or remove postfix virtual aliases from my cell, i use a pythkn script to read that mysql table and extract what is needed to create the virtual alias for postfix which is then synced to the vm via csync2

whenever spam arrives, i just change the address at the page/newsletter/shop where it was leaked, change my password there and tell the pageowner that they had a data leak.

i nearly get no spam at all, but when, i know who leaked my data, so i consider this sort of an advantage.

in my database i have the (automatic) creation date, switch if its enabled or disbaled, the date of deactication, i also added a 'notes' column for things like why i disabled it, when i asked for a password reset but didnt get an email so that when i finally deacticate it, i have sort of a documentation when and how i tried to delete the account (when the page is sort of dead for example) i also have a switch to which of my real accounts (not aliases) that alias belongs, so i have a postbox for important emails (server administration, access to providers management systems) and i.e. one for less important things like shops, newsletters etc.

creating single aliases for each newsletter was over the years a lot of work but always only when setting it up a few seconds, so no big deal. however after decades of doing so, i figured out that this is a very good documentation of where i have accounts etc. it WAS a big deal however when i wanted to clean things up, move those aliases from multiple domains to a single one, delete accounts i dont need any more, change passwords (possibly to better ones) and add passkeys or totp where possible in one go. that was a lot of work and i only have few aliases left, one company i.e. that lets me reset the password, login with it, but when i try to delete my account, they claim they witnessed "suspicious behaviour" and lock my account again, i guess they never implemented account deletion and try to cover that with abuse of their so cslled "security concerns". well, some providers are more difficult than others. those are the main reason why my cleanup still isnt done completely yet

i don't use kde, but the tray clock i used had its own timezone settings independently from system settings. maybe try looking into the settings of the tray clock instead of system settings.

so they reinvented the (steering) wheel and failed 🤣

there hasn't been a single solution for all problems since humans sort of know that solutions can exist. a bit of every step towards a better situation, and a bit more and more until it fits. i cannot say when it will fit, but destroying the future of whole generations is more like the definition of unfit than an achievement. it might be seen as glory by some confused and rich, but its filthyness in reality.

reduce demand-producers, reduce overall irrelevant work, that is i.e. all work done solely for increasing numbers on bank accounts that don't even change anything for that account owner any longer. we do ship things around the world that really should get processed locally. there are many things that are wrong only for keeping the pyramid schemes of the rich active.

most people drive daily to work and back, and way too many who could do homeoffice have to do this only because of the corporation just "wanting" it, who's the owner of the corporation? other corporations, funds, banks, following the money, guess what you'll find? more malicious money.

its not the cars that are bad, its the way you are forced to do stupid earth destroying work for billionares to have higher numbers on their account. if you limit driving to what you would need without the rich ripping you off, how much would you need to drive then? would you have the time to use slower public transport?

i think cars in general aren't a bad thing by itself. and also not all cars are overpriced garbage cans.

i'ld apreciate to see a 100% open-source-hardware car officially usable in the wild.

that nazi truck is a waste of resources on so many levels. i guess one cannot "waste" it more than the resources already are.

how about those expensive steel garbage cans that also have steering wheels?

what a poor country, they really should start to developed civilisation there, its worth it.

not for the trees, one has been added, or was it chopped in the original image?
