Dark/light mode switching now available on my site, plus a new overall look and finally a responsive mobile menu. If anyone can suggest improvements for the shoddy .png moon/sun icons, I'd appreciate it. I made them myself in Inkscape and exported them as tiny pngs. Haven't done any icon design before... samhowell.uk

@kev Damn, now you made me check it out and now I really want it. I tend to avoid gaming these days due to the fact I get so sucked in.

We commend people like YOU, that raised your voice in opposition to the .org registry transfer. You persuaded ICANN to do the right thing!

Three cheers for those that operate with core values aligned with the interests of the public.

As this older article from MagPi shows, running #Nextcloud on a #RaspberryPi is awesome - and might make a great project over the long weekend or during an extended stay-at-home 🤓
Tip: A RPI4 with 4gb ram is plenty even for use with an extended family!

Find a cool product on #Amazon?

That company exists OFF Amazon, too.

1) #DDG company name.

2) Order from their site.

2a) Can usually find a 10% code!

3) Still get product in 2-8 days.

4) Company avoids losing 25% margin share to Amazon.

5) You avoid giving money to #Bezos.
