I am an "all or nothing type". Have weed in the house? It will be smoked daily. But, I stopped years ago. Stopped thinking about it, stopped being around people associated with it. I am proud now. I hope to be proud years from now from not throwing money away. Gotta let go and not think about it.
Know thyself...congrats. I can say with certainty that the guilt of affecting ones close to you will never leave you. Light comes from darkness.
!! I love LilyPond. Found in back in 2010 when I installed Ubuntu for the first time and wanted an alternative to Finale...first OSS software I probably knowingly used. I felt like a real coder typing my music. Frescobaldi is a nice compliment to LilyPond. I still use LilyPond to this day
Femme fatale! I wonder how this would have played out if it weren't for that girl at the hostel flirting with him, wanting to see the man behind the mask.
Let me know how it goes, or if you get more creative. I wish I used the XMPP side more, but people I know use Signal or just text.
Sure, there are other ways to go about getting more or less the same functionality. I love hearing other ideas.
jmp.chat is an open source VoIP provider. The telephone itself, a Cortelco 2500 telephone, is not bluetooth nor VoIP. I love the classic physical gong ringer. The telephone connects to the Cell2Jack adapter via a standard telephone cable (6P2C/RJ11). The Cell2Jack itself has the bluetooth. What's cool is I can also use the telephone speaker as a one-ear "headphone" device for any and all media I play on my device if I change the setting on Cell2Jack.
I like Dino! However, the way Cell2Jack is designed to integrate with smartphone native dialer phone apps (either Android or iPhone), Dino wouldn't be as seamless as I would like for my purposes, and the telephone ringer wouldn't ring (again, due to Cell2Jack design). Cheogram integrates with the native phone dialer so I don't even have to use a device screen to answer or dial out a number using either the Android or Raspberry Pi setup. The tactile experience is desirable to me so I'm attempting to go headless on the Pi too. But, maybe I'm missing some perspective here...I would love to hear other people's take on this sort of idea!

Latin: I'm reading at a level of a second year student. Noun and adjective declensions are solid, but I am trying to hone in on different tenses of complicated verb forms, such as imperfect passive conjunctive. I can only speak Latin with small phrases derived from vocabulary and familiar texts I've read. My speech is quite limited since there is no one around me that has an interest in Latin, so I have to piece together and memorize what I want to say before saying it.
Ancient Greek: I know only the alphabet.
Both: I am a self learner in my adult years and did not take either language via schooling.
Anyone can open an account. I did not type this to brag. I wanted to hear what other people have realized about themselves. I don't own a home/have a mortgage and my cars are beaters. If only I put the money to use in a way that meant something to myself and the people I loved instead of making poor decisions, I might actually be better off in life now.
