Secret Server (Thycotic/Delinea). What a crock of shite that is. I was trying to replace it but people at work who have more influence than I do actually like it. I guess they've never used a decent password manager. If we ever actually get to the point where we have to pay for it maybe they'll change their mind.

Kit Kat (Nestle)

A new Google Pixel phone as they have supported GrapheneOS. Super huge, ugly, everything Glass for no reason and no headphone jack...

To that, Bluetooth. I will have to use it with this phone, or suffer from iphone-like Dongles like a cringe applekid.

Windows, ArcGIS, MSOffice, Microsoft services everywhere, for University.

Centrally controlled undemocratic fiat. ... Usury.

Starlink, mostly because of Musk being Musk, but also because the replacement schedule of the satellites is against what I would prefer for a more sustainable service. Yeah I am well aware of why they replace them that often but I would rather they didn't.

I only use the service as I travel in a RV a lot, 4g/5g just cannot compete for high speed internet in the middle of nowhere or even the middle of somewhere, and that's with a proper roof mounted and powerful external aerial. Cost vs. Other mobile satellite services starlink is just massively cheaper for large amounts of data. It seems expensive compared to 4g or 5g but it really isn't when compared to satellite services.

macOS... I have to use it at work unfortunately. It's truly the worst interface. Plasma is the best, then Windows, then Cinnamon, then Gnome.

.. and why is that thing Windows, vi, or Ansible?

My motorcycle.

It was bought due to a necessity.

I didn't quite get the motorcycle I was looking for, and had to settle for this one from a different manufacturer. During the short test ride the problems were not glaring, it was when I rode it for a somewhat long duration that I came to know how bad it was. What's worse is things changed and my necessity to need a personal mode of transport was eliminated, so I barely need to use it daily anymore. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Tried getting a few modifications done to make it a more comfortable ride, and while it's better than stock now it's still not where I need it to be.

My phone and my phone plan. Haven't been that happy with it lately, but there's no need for me to buy a new one yet.

Google drive/docs. I haven't found an actually good alternative (yet) so...

This house, my parents, the government, police, the council, the courts, corporate bought statutory regulations, surgeons, roads, cars, petrol, proprietary hardware and driver blobs, youtube (until tomorrow, when I start notubevember), systemd (from ubuntustudio I hijacked), portrait monitor arrangements and low vertical pixels, single monitor, ptsd/sad/sad/pda, iron supplements, calcium supplements, emf, and doubtless many more things.
But not tobacco. Thanks Allen Carr's easy way (& caryophyllene, cbd, psilocybe microdosing and iboga microdosing).
