@brandon So far drizzle hasn't been to bad with letting me step outside of the TypeScript types and run some raw-ish SQL 😅
@suricrasia I just pay https://etke.cc to do maintenance on a droplet that I own
Canada Post email?
Here's my idea for the day. Evolve part of Canada Post to create an email service. Canada doesn't have a really strong rival to gmail. Recent events have shown that using services such as US-owned email, digital storage and other related services are a security risk to every Canadian. Individual as well as Canadian business and government departments are all using these US services -- which can surrender their customers documents, etc. on request to the US government. Likely the same for many other non-Canadian owned services.
I don't know if Canada Post email would be the way to go, but with all this talk about its services needing to keep up with the times, well, it popped into my head.
Something encrypted, offers similar document and work services, etc. as gmail.). They could work with Corel, Sync and/or related Canadian companies to build it.
Or, maybe Sync or some other Canadian company or group could be supported, and encouraged to offer an email service.
Anyway, just a thought.
Interesting comments on this, btw.
TIL about the "popover API" in #html
With this you can have fully declarative modals with zero js.
```
<button popovertarget="mypopover" popovertargetaction="show">
Show popover
</button>
<button popovertarget="mypopover" popovertargetaction="hide">
Hide popover
</button>
<div id="mypopover" popover>Popover content</div>
```

@jonmsterling Hard agree regarding just getting the prompt
@atax1a That's reasonable! I don't mean to say that everyone should do as I want. Only that I appreciate when folks CW stuff.
@atax1a I love it when people CW US pol so I can get a break from the constant doom posting if I want. Setting up word filters for all the various actors and euphamisms is exhausting. I'd rather not have to block/mute people entirely
Sometimes I almost miss having a regular laptop but it's been like a decade since those days and the controller setup suits me way better
hot take, burning hot take, like, not to you who probably agree but to the companies who disagree: not only should it be easy and legal to jailbreak all your devices ... the "jail" shouldn't even exist, you should be able to install and uninstall any software without jailbreaking the device
this includes phones, tablets, consoles, smart appliances, and obviously computers
@burnitdown @xgranade Also for repairability and upgrades the @frameworkcomputer computers are decently priced and so easy to use https://frame.work/ca/en/laptop13
@burnitdown @xgranade @system76 Less than a new macbook but I agree it'd be better if folks reused hardware. I think businesses would have the highest impact rather than household consumers.
Occult Enby that's making local-first software with peer to peer protocols, mesh networks, and the web.
