Since OP was never an American resident or paid taxes, he or she shouldn’t need to file taxes or be flagged on a system for anything anyway.
Unfortunately the US is one of two countries that requires all citizens, regardless of past or present residence or employment, to pay federal taxes.
Sync for Lemmy has ads in the free version/without the in app purchase.
I switched to a TKL (tenkeyless) to reduce the distance between my hands when my right hand is on the mouse, and it feels so much better.
I got a programmable keyboard, so I remapped the keys around where my right hand rests to be the numpad keys when I hold the capslock key. That way I can still have the convenience of the numpad without having an actual dedicated numpad, although I'm still getting used to using it this way.
I've been doing that for ~15 years and almost no one has commented on it :<
You won't be using a traditional RAID with TrueNAS Scale. You have a choice of Stripe, Mirror, RAIDZ1, RAIDZ2, RAIDZ3, dRAID1, dRAID2, dRAID3. The docs are very detailed, so you should read up on RAIDZ and the other types elsewhere, too.
There was a guy in the cinema recently who had this feature turned on. He didn't even bother to turn on do not disturb after the first time and he just didn't give a fuck that it was bothering everyone.

To add to that: Configure your notifications. Anything that isn't urgent doesn't need to vibrate or make a sound. It can just sit there until you look at your phone. Also, use do not disturb for things like work.
I love kubernetes. At the start of the year I installed k3s von my VPS and moved over all my services. It was a great learning opportunity that also helped immensely for my job.
It works just as well as my old docker compose setup, and I love how everything is contained in one place in the manifests. I don't need to log in to the server and issue docker commands anymore (or write scripts / CI stages that do so for me).
That's fascinating, here in Germany it's the opposite, at least in my experience. Everyone I know who is vegetarian or vegan (including me) tends to lean more left than those who eat meat.
Even if you're downloading the file directly from the URL found in the RSS feed, that doesn't mean that ads can't be dynamically injected into the file. A URL like https://download.my.podcast/episode4.mp3 can still be answered by a script that serves a custom version of the podcast with region specific ads.
