No, the name Gary is not becoming more popular; it has experienced a significant, long-term decline in popularity, with some data suggesting it is nearing extinction... // ...although some reports have suggested a slight potential for an ironic comeback.

Nobody should be called #Gary.

There's a lot to overcome to be fair. It's not just Garmin, it's WiiM as well. Google have their hooks into everything. Maybe that's just how life is now? This house has more Amazon hooks in it than I care for too. I'm getting a little old for the revolution. We do what we can, I suppose.

Still a lot of stuff to move. #Google is the tough one, serious Android Dependency. Maybe give up my underused Garmin and go GrapheneOS? (still Android) Is Canada safe? No offence meant!

Looking at #GoToSocial this morning, I really do like #Mastodon but it seems pretty resource heavy for a single-user server. I mean I have a reasonable spec #vps to hand but I feel that perhaps it won't stay that way for long once it's exposed to everyone's cat pictures #Fediverse #Linux #DogPerson

I wouldn't go as far as saying you 'should', but, personally i haven't been able to wear anything else for years, I do own a pair of Hoka running shoes, which aren't the worst shoes I've had, but honestly, I constantly feel like I'm going to topple over in them.

The idea of 'curing' #autism is a strange, grey, emotional area, however, there are those who would love nothing more than to engage in life in a that is currently inaccessible to them. It is hard not to shout out for all autistic people, but it's not your life.
