Hey, seasoned international travelers, have a moment to give advice? I’m wondering whether this “provide all your passport details” web form from KLM is worth filling out.
It promises to “speed up the check-in process at the airport.” As a software person, the offer I hear is “make your sensitive data pass through even •more• systems with heaven knows what security characteristics.”
If doing it at the airport is 5 min, I’d prefer that. If that’s asking for a headache, then OK, f…
One of the truly great sensations is the absence of pain. Yesterday I went to a doctor because my jaw was really hurting. Turns out I had a stone in a "duct" that lead from a salivary gland to the mouth.
I got antibiotics and was told to take some painkillers and to rub the area when I could.
This morning I was much better. I took a single ibuprofen and now I feel the absence of pain.
I wish I could conjure up this feeling every day I am not in pain.

Happy 23rd anniversary to Weezer's green album, released today (May 15) in 2001. Man, did I listen to this album a lot, and I still can. Might be my favorite Weezer record but I hate the last song - luckily it's last and I can just turn it off when it comes on. 😂
I remember following along online as they were making it, they were posting updates. Some great unreleased/b-side stuff from this era, too.
I know many people find that Xitter has become an unreadable grifter nazi hell hole, but I just looked at my timeline over there, the "Following" one, and it was so full with beautiful #art that I got sad. Filling my feed with just a shitload of amazing art from past and present is one of the things I have not been able to recreate over here, not nearly to the same degree. And yes I know abou…

I'd like to finally move my private email out of GMail. So, Fedi, what email provider would you recommend?
What I need:
• reasonably professional (i.e. that I wouldn't have to worry about suddenly being locked out for my "security", or having mail dropped)
• free or very cheap (i.e. something a person with no income could pay for without feeling very bad about it)
• support for a custom domain catch-all (I want to be able to use unique addresses on-the-fly)
• direct IMAP support (i.e. no special apps required)
• [EDIT: hosted in EU]
