I'm looking for email host recommendations! :boostRequest:
(since I'm pushing up against the free limit that came with my domain)
- Must be EU hosted.
- Must support IMAP.
- Must use my own domain.
- Attachment limit >= 25 MB.
- Filters would be great.
- Catch-all would be good.
- Can't afford sth. >10/mo.
- No outbound DKIM.
To be honest, starting small with 5/mo would be easier for me. I also need to use this with SPF, but that's pretty much a given anyway.

Beekeeper's advice for the day: It's springtime, which is swarming season. If you do *not* want to have to deal with bees in your walls, make sure to either seal up or put mesh over any exterior hole in your house (especially your eaves and siding), particularly holes that are about penny to thumbtack sized.

Hey, looking for and
The situation is that my family sleeps in a caravan. We have a wood burner and keep it cosy at night, but most of winter we'll get frost and ice overnight and there's likely going to be weeks, if not months where we're enveloped in a thick icy fog.
While we're warm and snuggly, there will obviously be a lot of condensation on the walls/windows. We mitigate that with bubble wrap on both sides of the windows, but even still, we find ourselves needing to get rid of curtains every year because of the black mould.
Obviously opening the windows helps by day, but that's not really useful when we're in The Fog for weeks at a time (it's so fucking bleak).
We do have a dehumidifier,but, running off solar leaves it less reliable when it's fog-time.
I was thinking of maybe a vinyl type table cloth and using that as curtains. Something a bit more waterproof would be less likely to hold the moisture, right
Does that sound like a thing that might work
Open to questions and advice (leaving the caravan is not an option).

It took me a while to realize that is extremely dangerous. Not just because of how it deludes you into thinking worse of yourself or that someone is better than you. But it's because really, nobody is perfect.
I saw someone on YouTube say that this 'guy' has no bad takes to which I had to say "Well nobody is perfect though. We still have to accept them even with a few bad takes, because we'd have nobody left to accept and respect otherwise."

I am torn between the Canon R10 and the Canon R7 as a replacement for my professional DSRL. I'll be using the camera both with a small lens for vlogging and my 70-200, 100, and 24-70 L lenses, both for photography and video. So, I need a hybrid camera but I also need quality.
Anyone got any opinions here How worthwhile is the price and weight difference of the R10

Ok fedi hivemind, requested. I have to carry around a fairly sizeable number of pills in my pocket for extended periods, more than can be handled by a keychain pill bottle. I have been just using an old pill bottle, but these pills are tablets not capsules and the motion of them in my pocket is slowly but surely rendering them into dust. Any suggestions Surely someone else out there who is ADHD needs to carry around a bunch of pills so they don't forget them at home.

i currently use #contabo for its prices, but theyre bad performance, itd be nice to have something like contabo, but better xD - i am willing to pay more ofc
i dont really need a lot of #storage as i could just use cheap storage slab somewhere else ( such as contabo or buyvm ) while doing all the processing and all that somewhere else ( aka what i am looking for )
i dont really want something like #hetzner for their requirement of ID or 20 euro ( iirc they removed that ), i also compared other hosting providers before but idk honestly :

Fitzrovia Community Centre is working in partnership with Fitzrovia Neighbourhood Association and Connecting Boroughs. Photo: Fitzrovia News.Fitzrovia Community Centre (FCC) in Foley Street has been awarded a grant from Camden Council to deliver projects to support residents who are most impacted by the rising cost of living.
In November 2023 the council agreed a Cost of Living Community Response Fund of 450,000 from the Local Community Infrastructure Levy, the Family Crisis Fund and other Council budgets. 50,000 of this has been ringfenced for community launderette projects.
The council invited voluntary and community organisations across the borough to form partnerships, and for a lead organisation from each partnership to make a grant application.
is one of 31 lead organisations to receive an award of between 5,000 and 30,000 from the fund.
The grant of 12,500 to FCC is for the development of practical, community-led solutions that improve the well-being and household finances of local residents.
The project will run for six months, and we will be working in partnership with Fitzrovia Neighbourhood Association and Connecting Boroughs, says Donna Yay, director of FCC.
FCC will be running monthly events called RRRRepair the 4 Rs standing for Repair, Reuse, Repurpose and Recycle, says Yay.
Once a month on a Sunday afternoon, we will offer different stations staffed by skilled local volunteers to teach people how to mend clothes, fix bikes, repair small electricals, etc.
Our first event will be held in June and we are looking for volunteers. We want people who have a skill to share, are passionate about saving the planet and can give us a couple of hours on a Sunday.
They dont have to be available for every event, but we would ideally like some continuity. We are particularly keen on reaching men.
The grant will also allow to hold an additional weekly, face-to-face advice session at FCC, giving residents support on claiming welfare benefits, housing, fuel poverty, and help to fill in the sometimes complex forms in order to get financial help.
will be helping people with essential life skills and tasks, such as using online services, understand their bills, and how to shop around for cheaper utilities.
It will be volunteer run, under the umbrella of FCC, in case anyone is concerned about sharing personal details with strangers. We will DBS check and find them training. They will be able to make referrals to other agencies, eg, debt advice, employment advice, etc.
Its a preventative service to help people keep on top of issues before they get out of hand. Volunteers are multilingual, says Yay.
The project is funded by Camden, but as the community for the whole of Fitzrovia, we dont turn people away. Similarly, Camden residents can access anything that Westminster funds. We focus the promotion of the project in whichever area it is targeting, she says.
Anyone interested in finding out more, or volunteering with Fitzrovia Community Centre to help with the project, should email infofitzroviacommunitycentre.org or call 020 7580 8680 or drop by one day during office hours at , 2 Foley Street, London W1W 6DL.
