I usually convert pdfs to epub if its something I actually need to read and not just scan/browse. Often I would bother to even edit the epub in Sigil to fix any problems with the conversion.

Network chuck has a really easy to digest series on how DNS and subnetting works, there are also free courses from free code camp on the topic, but those are less digestible.

I’m with you, comrade. People on Lemmy need to understand that as long as you’re playing by capitalism rules, you’ve already lost. Liberal ideologies are a losing game, you can’t win if you’re playing the same game as the people who WILL use their money and power to oppress you. This american election is the proof. A man with 400+ billion can play by any rules in the capitalism game.

…in respect of riches, no citizen shall ever be wealthy enough to buy another, and none poor enough to be forced to sell himself. -Rousseau

Yeah, I just use the fork.

I just use Obsidian + Syncthing + MEGA. My obsidian folders are on my mega synced folder on my pc, and they are set up to use syncthing to push updates to all my other devices (2 phones and a tablet), but you can have as many devices as you want. It’s all free as well, and the cloud service can be any that you like.

Never used twitter. It always seemed quite stupid, and made me think that If a post only took 144 characters (in old days) to be written down, it is definitely not something worth enough to share with the whole internet.

However, I wholly agree on the “patriotic” duty of convincing people to stop using twitter, and facebook, and instagram, and tik tok… But mostly twitter and facebook. We’re past the age of soft power and into the age of algorithmic power, capable of impacting impressionable minds with pin-point precision. It’s truly a matter of national security.
