In the summer 78F during the day but I spend most of that time in the basement because that's where my office is and 68F at night to sleep.

During the winter 68F all day err' day

The DNS resolution, assuming you're just using your ISP's DNS authority servers, is still very much known to your ISP.

They can still identify my traffic, where I'm going, what I'm browsing, etc.

With a VPN that you can trust, that emphasizes user privacy, that doesn't store PII, that doesn't comply with local law enforcement short of being issued a warrant, all my ISP sees is I keep routing encrypted web traffic to an IP that they can identify is a machine somewhere in the Netherlands.

And besides that they know absolutely fuck all.

Without the VPN they can identify the IPs I make https requests to belong to beehaw, belong to imgur, belong to Netflix, belong to some torrenting site, etc etc.

So fucking ecstatic to have seen that Sync for Lemmy came out today personally.

Paid for Ultra immediately without a second thought even if the app is early days I know it's a worthwhile investment to keep ljdawson paid and caffeinated lol

I tried transforming the word Lemmy in the same way as demonyms for countries ending in Y just to see how it'd shake out.

Anything calling to anyone? 😅

Germany -> Germans -> Lemmans

Para/Uruguay -> Para/Uruguayans -> Lemmyans

Muscovy -> Muscovites -> Lemmites

Hungary -> Hungarians -> Lemmians

Norway -> Norwegians -> Lemmegians?

Turkey -> Turks? -> Lemms?
