I'm using Signal, but after I found out that it's not as privacy-friendly as it claims, I'm uneasy about sharing my address there. I trust the person who asked for my address, but not the service. What's a safe way to share? I was thinking of something like a self-destructing pastebin, but surely you have better ideas.

"A simple dictionary for everyone's favorite conlang ;)

The dictionary is a simple word lookup and does not provide results for compounds. So the word car, in english, will not be found in toki pona because you would be required to speak multiple toki pona words to express the idea. Both searched do support multiple words being searched for: separate the words with spaces."

"Windows 10, which I liked as much as Windows 7 at the start, has slowly rotted on me, or just ground me down to where I find it reprehensible. Where every new notification, interruption, thing changing under my feet or update that bricks my entire computer, just pokes straight at the raw exposed nerve ending that used to be a thick skin."

It helps to see your enemies as victims, who are not as in control of their habits as you are, for whatever reason. Just imagine, if a child didn't have the right idea, you wouldn't scream at it, but patiently try to convince it by spreading the facts.
