I don’t have a problem. I can quit any time I like. I only swipe recreationally. Every five minutes. Maybe I’m in denial. First stage, right?

    Swapping Google Cancer to Apple Cancer is one way to reduce your dependence on Google, but I’m not entirely sure that really solves the underlying problem. Either way, there are a few Google services that I could replace with alternatives, but I just haven’t gotten around to it yet. I guess, one day I just need to start paying for a NextCloud subscription or something.

    When people talk about fascism, they usually mention his most famous apprentice, but Benito is the real deal. He wrote the book. If you follow this path, you can expect to find the bloodbath in a few decades. Realistically though, there’s also a safer way out when the king is too sick to continue, but that could still take too long.
