Just noticed you mentioned Tesco. I use Tesco's own brand oat milk for breakfast cereal. Confusingly, they have normal and long-life UHT oat milk. Get it from the fridge section, rather than the UHT stuff from the non-chilled shelves.

Eh? Genuinely interested to hear your sources for this.

Thanks wolf@lemmy.zip !

Thanks to your post and plenty of config tutorials, I've got this set up on my Oracle Free Tier VPS running Ubuntu. It has recently been struggling hard with 1GB ram, requiring reboot. The difference with zram enabled... WOW.

I haven't been able to get zram working on my Ubuntu VPS with another provider though - search results suggest that some providers don't allow swap.

I've bought packs of 3 Fruit of the Loom off Amazon UK - 3 different colours, 3 different marketplace vendors.

One set is perfect - heavy soft cotton, tidy seams. One set is a little coarse. One set is like sandpaper cotton, with jabby scratchy seams around the neck.

Good price, but I suspect that none of them are genuine FOTL.

Likewise...

What do you call a man swimming with no arms, no legs?

Clever dick.

In my experienc, using cloudflare tunnel, I don't even open 80/443. That's the beauty of the tunnel - no open ports (except 22 for ssh).

Yes, uBlock Origin add-on is available in Firefox Android: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-GB/android/addon/ublock-origin/

Adblock Plus... I don't know!

In adblock plus, acceptable ads are on by default, but optional:

"Slightly worse?"... I haven't touched abp in years, so I couldn't say. However, here's a comparison:

In Firefox, install the uBlock Origin extension. Go into ublock settings, disable ad blocking filterlists, enable tracking filterlists. Personally, I'm blocking ads too as they're sometimes abused as malware vectors.

Or if you only want ads that aren't interfering, there's Adblock Plus with its acceptable ads programme. Can't vouch for whether that's a good or bad thing.

The moment they copy some of the more useful Swype UX features, I'm jumping to gboard.

Get a local SIM or eSIM when you arrive. If you're dealing with insurance, you might want to be able to receive calls too. Regarding privacy: good luck.

Because the family premium tier gets you and designated family ad free YouTube when using Chromecast, and YouTube Music. Worth it for me. We're all cheapskates here, just some of us are less cheap!
