I host my own mail, imap and authorative dns servers for my domains for more than 25 years now. I like it and seldom had any problems. I have two root servers in two different countries for that. Costs around 2x50€/month, but the load from said services is minimal. The servers also host gitlab, nextcloud and other services, most of them only available via vpn (eg. No public ssh). Every service runs encapsulated in it's own vm with strict firewall rules and their own internal network. This makes migrating to another server relatively smooth.

I would recommend if you know what you're doing and have fun doing it. Keeping services up to date takes sometimes a little time, mostly when there is a distribution update with configuration changes.

I do not know what "Experienced enough in homelabbing" means, but running mail and dns is not homelabbing. It comes with responsibilities. Running an open relay hurts other people. You also need two mail servers each with a static public ip adress from a different ip range and you must be able to add their public signing keys to your domains dns record.

I'd say if your willing to invest time and money because you like the technology and have fun doing it: absolutely go for it, if you think it's a fire and forget weekend project then save your time..

You are also dying in the future. So no treatment for you. It's even cheaper the sooner you die. And since you don't need money after you've died, lets make your last days so expensive that we can extract all the money from you and if possible from the rest of your family. Profit.

You are probably not aware that in the 1950 they were on a good way and the usa and britain overthrew their elected government and installed the radical regime because democratic Iran wanted to sell their oil by themselves? (Very shortend version, please search for details and nuances by yourself)

Guess on which code the vide coding models were mostly trained....

Well, I live in Europe and in my and in neighbouring countries it works overall flawflessly. Cars usually stop at pedestrian crossings, without anyone having to carry flags, warning lights etc.

Don't want to sound rude, but the USA (I assume you refer to when talking about "america") is really not a good example for anything when it comes to topics concerning considering others.

Also if there's a lack of enforcement, maybe try less enforcing other shit and concentrate on enforcing things which are valueable for everyone. Freedom my ass...

Is this some kind of joke I don't get? Just have a law that pedestrians on crosswalks have priority and introduce a hefty fine for cars not stopping. Works flawlessly in other countries.

How is the above "a brilliant campaign"?

As others already pointed out: the additional context information. So while I probably got the initial idea of the photo, adding the information that this crown was from the louvre heist, added a new layer of information. Now I could also laugh about the probably unintended joke that he tried to steal his royality back. It just makes the photo so much more interesting.

As a non blind person I really appreciate these alt texts/image descriptions.

Maybe try to find a Discord with an interesting topic. Or try gaming, for example join a guild in "Where winds meet" (free game). Or if you speak a second language try conversationexchange.com and find a language partner.

You meet people there and can write/speak to them. Also don't tell them about your situation, just try to "blend in" (won't work for conversationexchange.com since this is more private). No one wants to be bothered with the problems of unknown people. Ask open questions either about the common topic or about the other person. Try to learn about them. Most people are flattered when you show genuine interest in what the do/like.

If you want to meet people try an app for your region where people meet (meetup or something). Choose something where you either hear a talk with a get together afterwards or where people do someting together (eg bord gaming session, hiking). It helps to have something in common to talk about.

If there's a cafe/little shop near you go there regularly. The staff will recognise you and chat a bit after some time. But please remember, it's their work, don't bother them to much. They mostly only show interest because they have to. But chances are you'll meet other people there who want someone to speak to.

If you only want to speak to someone "to stay sane" try to get a therapist or call a helpline for that. They are trained to help you or can give you contacts who can.

Random people usually have their own problems and don't want to hear about yours. For that you need to make friends which is a long process. To find a friend you need to spend a long time with the person and the older we get the less time we have. But there are also groups for finding friends in your area. It's a common problem.

You can also volunteer for something, for example an animal shelter or a food bank. They're always glad if someone is willing to help and you meet people. If that is to much, try walking dogs for an animal shelter. Visit a dog park (even without a dog). You'll have a conversation in no time. Ask about their dogs. Say you'll think of getting one, what they would recommend for you.

So don't despair and good luck!
