Well I'm just gonna have to pirate it EVEN HARDER.

The best pirates are librarians with legit ethics.

Preserve human knowledge and make it available to everyone.

I hate that you are right about mostly just greedy dipshits pissing in the high seas without contributing.

We should have taken up arms after Aaron Swartz...

Several of my utility companies and bank sites do this still. It's absurd and in the stranger places.

What pisses me off is seeing more and more "You need to upgrade your browser for this site!" when using Firefox.

Having to use a spoof header gets frustrating frequently too.

Asiandvdclub (not the shady remake)

What.cd. - RED is great but there's still a hole...

He is referring to turning Lemmy code itself into a decentralized tracker software.

A torrent post to Lemmy that your client would download Meta data from etc.

Yup. No clue on cause etc. even some services on the irc are hosed.

Edit: in some other irc, saw word it's being worked on and status ”wonky"

Tech issue seems. Don't think a takedown or malfeasance.

If you are decent with script type stuff, and have tasker, I believe you can build your own via kwgt:

You can use tasker to set up variables that kwgt then can render in several ways.

I've only done simpler things but it's worked well for me for years.

If the gabapentin helps, have you looked at pregabalin? My doc suggested it and it's like a super gabapentin. Much more effective, less side effects.

It's been a huge help for me... Made the difference between active and not active most days.

Steroid epidurals also helped me a lot, but your needs might vary.

My doctor and I suspect a childhood injury initially, but absolutely degenerative over time after the fact. My symptoms had largely been just pain for most of my life, but 2014-2016 saw them start to affect walking and hand use.

The thought was that youth masked things, but middle age caught me 😄

Woah... I've caught myself sitting like that unconsciously for years and kept thinking it was bad lol... That position is my go to on bad days. Never thought about it actually putting things into a good state.

Excellent.

The years of misdiagnosis and useless treatments are the worst. I now have a set of docs that I am literally afraid of losing as these actual listen and dig into the why.... The listening! So damned important.

My primary guy is amazing and kept going until we found. I went from age 14 until 35 before finding this guy, and he's the first to actually believe me.

I almost accidentally killed myself on ibuprofen... Pain so bad I lost track of how much I was taking since I couldn't sleep and almost killed my liver. Blood pressure spike well into the stroke ranges....

Glad you found a good one who got you fixed up.
