Some very cheap phones with minutes included, here:

OTOH they can probably be traced back to you since you have to order them with your presumably real name. You can buy phones and prepaid cards anonymously in phone stores but it will cost more.
The domain name in the certificate has to match the one in the browser. Does it? You haven’t said.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demurrage_currency
discusses pros and cons of money intentionally designed to expire.
What does it even mean? People can recompile the kernel to turn the crap off.
These days if the file is write protected, you get prompted for whether you really want to remove it. I don’t know when that change appeared or whether it’s universal.
Meh, in Emacs you can use https://github.com/halfwhole/pride-mode every month.
€890, meh
I’m not used to shitposting being called “content creation” but whatever.
Lemm.ee is shutting down from lack of admins, apparently.
Bought a Samsung mini laser printer and found that it is Windows only. I gave it to a neighbour.
Wrong community, you wanted lions ate my face.
Meh, I’m feeling like this whole concept is pretty flawed and it might be better by now to just run Graphene or Lineage out of the box. Maybe a niche Android phone manufacturer like Unihertz could find incentive to do something like that.
A fully FOSS dumbphone would possibly be of more interest than a smartphone, fwiw. Enough smartphone projects have failed that I’m unexcited about this latest one.
Just use a sip phone app on your mobile. I use Linphone but there are lots of them.
I use it to initialize new VPS with my usual setup, but it might be easier to use a container format. I think Ansible itself has become a bit unfashionable since I started using it. I don’t know what is cool instead now. It was Saltstack for a while but idk how long that lasted. Ansible is working mostly ok for me so I’ve stayed with it, til whenever.
Someone posted this last week:

Worth mentioning, this book was written in 1954. Full text is online, find by web search.
Book was published in 1954. I hadn’t heard of it previously. Based on the video blurb, the longwinded but interesting article “Meditations on Moloch” by Scott Alexander might also be of interest. The video is 12 minutes long, I guess not too bad, but I’m still not up for watching it. Here’s a longer version of the blurb, I guess:

Yes, that too. I hadn’t even thought about trying to send email from a home ISP. Everyone knows you basically can’t. I thought the idea was to receive email rather than send it, so you wouldn’t be relying on some bigtech company to store it for you.
I think there are still enough v4-only systems out there that you don’t really want to host a mail server on v6. You are right though that it would be nice to be able to get static v6 (or for that matter v4) addresses from home isp’s. Some do offer that of course.
Another issue can be that the average home internet user has no idea keep even a client system secure. So ISP’s might use NAT and default firewall configurations partly to stop incoming connections on the theory that they are likely to be malicious. On home routers you can usually open ports if you know what you’re doing. I don’t know if that’s even possible on mobile phones.
Maybe nextcloud? IDK I just use Borg. But Nextcloud allows that type of syncing that you describe, I think. I run a small nextcloud server for other purposes and don’t use that feature.
