@DolphinMath “look what I made you do to myself!”
I’m Sarah. I’m a Brit who fled to Portugal on account of Brexit, increasing intolerance and the British weather. I like climbing (although I can’t do much any more for health reasons) and sailing. This is a Friendica account. Friendica is kinda like Facebook as Mastodon is kinda like Twitter, except they can talk to each other.

@gAlienLifeform this is what much of the EU public is voting for, cheered on by the media which finds the extreme right irresistibly sexy.
They are voting for murdering desperate people.
And they’re going to keep doing it, because it’s easy to push the narrative that these people aren’t human beings with hopes and fears and desires, but some amorphous threat that “must be stopped”.
We can be better than this, but we never see to chose to be.
@uriel238 @cyu Realistically, I can’t see it being cheaper than implants, and will probably need lots of orthodontic treatment when the new tooth comes through.
I have an implant, with bone regeneration, and honestly, it’s just a tooth. Even with the bone regeneration, my total time in the chair was probably less than 90 minutes.
And, bonus, I can’t get toothache in it, and if it breaks, it’s 2 weeks to replace it like nothing happened.
The only way I see this competing with implants if it’s cheaper (honestly can’t see that happening) or less hassle (again, seems unlikely).
Implants are that good, and they’re gonna be hard to displace as the “gold standard” to replace missing teeth.

@shiftymccool I don’t have either, because Tailscale lets me browse my home NAS from anywhere anyway.

@aniki As I said, I did the comparisons fully expecting to get a NUC. The Mac was cheaper at the performance point.
As for US prices, not especially relevant to me. Import taxes are a thing.
@Skwiggs Few months. I was using an old laptop with Debian before but Friendica was cooking it, literally.
The M2 Mini doesn’t break a sweat. It just takes the load and gets on with it.
@ninjan friendica can get quite heavyweight.
@aniki because it was the cheapest machine available for the performance I wanted in a useful form factor.
@deleted I couldn’t find one with equivalent performance to the M2 for less money.
I am not purchasing in dollars.
@MicroWave I am shocked, SHOCKED, by any suggestion that local Hitler enthusiast, Marine, 54, might be up to dodgy financial dealings.
