=============
Voluntary childlessness or childfreeness[1][2] describes the active choice not to have children.
The word childfree first appeared sometime before 1901[3] and entered common usage among feminists during the 1970s.[4][5]
The suffix -free refers to the freedom and personal choice of those to pick this lifestyle. The meaning of the term childfree extends to encompass the children of others (in addition to one's own children), and this distinguishes it further from the more usual term childless, which is traditionally used to express the idea of having no children, whether by choice or by circumstance
#Question: Saving pages
What is the best format for saving a long online browser page with text and picture (like near-infinite scroll page) which I can load again *offline* and copy and paste text or pic from)
(for example, not saving as image image file as I wouldn't be able to copy the text again)

I'm about to migrate my custom domain away from using Google mail to Protonmail.
I've already added one domain, and it accepts mail from gmail correctly, so I'll assume that I managed to configure it correctly.
However, I'm now ready to move over the primary domain, which is on Google right now. Is there anything I should consider? Will everything just work, or are there issues caused by Google being asked to deliver emails to a domain that it believes it controls? (my plan was to change the DNS first, and once I confirm everything works, I'd disable the domain on the Google side).

UK, mention of depression
I think I’ve put my finger on what coming back to the UK feels like. If an actual nation state could be suffering from clinical depression, this is what it would look like: Everything is slowly going to shit; the country seems to see no future for itself; it’s making decision after decision that is self neglect bordering on self harm; quite possibly the most unpopular government to be removed by democratic vote rather than bloodshed is about to lose an election by a cataclysmic margin, and when the opposition, who are set to clean up, are asked what they’re going to do differently, the answer is a shrug followed by, “nothing”.
And people here more or less accept it, because boiling frogs and suchlike, but then you go elsewhere (no, America, not you, sit back down), and it’s like the colour returns to the world and you didn’t even realise it was missing.
The greedy data centers are coming
"That tension has been on full display in Frederick County over the fate of 20,000 acres of picturesque farmland, rolling hills and a beloved mountain park. The ensuing debate, which pitted grassroots community organizations against powerful economic interests, offered a preview for how the data center dilemma might unfold across suburban Maryland in the coming years."
Destroying communities for pure greed and AI grifting.

@foone Almost keyboard twins and for almost the same reason. I bought a cheap mechanical gamer keyboard as a stopgap till I got the one I actually wanted, and kept it around as the "just in case" keyboard. Then I was like...why not make it pretty!!! And then it became my office keyboard.
This keycap style makes me happy in a way that feels like an old memory being prodded. I'm not sure of exactly *what* memories are being prodded here. Maybe the dumb terminals at the library when I was a kid.

Relativity and Relationship with Earth... as if in love... and appreciation...
"That's the kind of relationship I wish to have with the Earth, and be that as if in love..."
"This lifestyle we live seems right to me, both from a intellectual viewpoint and feeling... much more in tune with birds, bees, weather... the Earth"

"Political, social decision... to understand what sustains us..."
Relativity and Relationship with Earth... as if in love... with Earth and it's People.
It's about opening / changing minds...
Like healthier biology & plants, growing each other. This should be our focus (we have enough computing around us but less love for ourselves AND others). Growing others should be our business (mutual self-interest while minimizing monetizing / Capitalism but not ignoring it exists and we need parts of Capitalism for "growing" people physcially but can advance in the mental sense that people in Captialsm want to subdue). "Free School" for everyone towards "Freedoms".
FreeSchool = Learning / Respecting / Loving / Teaching ourselves giving each other Freedom.
Almot what your parents didn't tell you or missing pieces (the truth / reality) and then walking through it together, warts and all on the Fediverse.
You can re-build your mind as can I. This assumes you don't think you are perfect (nor do I) and have room to grow... right?
Set your notification bell 🔔 after your follow request is accepted and as you go this will make sense.
Just the will to grow and even learn to love things a bit more is needed...
We can't stop at the first bad thing or disagreement... so love to learn... grow my / your / our mind
Together we are a Hive Mind / Collective Consciousness if we want it - much like Bees, Ants, Temites https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hive_mind

THANKS FOR THINKING ABOUT LEARNING ABOUT PEACE / LOVE / MAKING FRIENDS WITH THE WORLD ! YES, THIS NEEDS TO BE A BIT BRAVE / GO INTO THE UNKNOWN !
========================
Biggest help you can do right now, is:
1/ Add alternative redirected links for your Google and YouTube links to filter out the adverts and bad code! See below:
> YouTube filtering adverts =
https://redirect.invidious.io/
> Non-google search:
https://www.searx.org/
2/ follow me (take the best of it)
THANKS FOR HELPING OUT!
We need to use Fediverse / Mastodon etc without direct links to BigTech sites so they get less revenue from us here clicking Fedi links and supplying data to them / tracking us remotely... so not YouTube direct links but Redirected links ! 🔗 ====> https://redirect.invidious.io/
(it's YouTube without the tracking + ads!)
I can help add #bestpractices and inspire what is best from what I know and have seen... If not UNFOLLOW (it's ok but do stick with one or two people more daily).
The participation of people is needed, else we give power away to others that do not care or care much less than we do for people around us directly or from distance.
#FreeSchool #Answers = Friendship as a Solution
On a basic level I would like to make friends because I think this is the way to solving everything eventually which the many can do, and at the same time solves everything else (solving without friendship or just donating isn't always good).
That's all for now. It's boring alone. Let's live this together!
