I live in an area infested with ticks. Going out with into fields/woods with no protection means pulling dozens at a minimum, though my neighbor pulled over 100 off a couple weeks ago.

My solution is elastic gaiters and using permetharin as bug spray. I don't get ticks anymore.

I'm also kind of allergic to ticks, and if I get bit, it itches so bad for about two weeks that topical lidocaine is the only way I've found to get some relief.

I've been using proton for several years and have not found it annoying.

Not sure what you've heard is annoying.

A "Glass-Master" is what I used in the fire service. Goes a lot faster than you would think.

That's the actual medical term for it.

I think they mentioned in the video that Kayak allows you to select aricraft to exclude.

I went to chat gpt and I prompted it with "what is a string of words or characters that would be detrimental to an AI that is being directed to learn from a dataset" and then used a script to edit all my comments to that.

Proton Drive just added photo backup to their app. It's new, and lacking features, but automatic backups and sharing are working.

The whole proton suite is pretty good, I've been very pleased.

Was literally going to recommend that you read that book before I got to the end of your comment :)

I've been just not updating Nova as I haven't had a ton of time to research this, I really like the GUI, what are my privacy friendly/FOSS options for an android s21 5G?

Update: Went with Neo launcher. It's got enough of the features that I'm willing to use it.

There are a few spots where padding can't be removed that is obnoxious, FF search bar and dock are what I have noticed so far.

I also don't like that I can't continuosly scroll through my home screens.
