Always expect the unexpected. What would have been a less than average Timelapse, saved by the sun. I couldn’t be bothered adding title page or music. I might do at some point. The camera battery died on 500 images and missed most of a very nice sunset.

One of the powerful things about the Fediverse and Social Web is that people can follow you from anywhere!
People from the same server you are on.
But also people from other servers can follow you.
Should the ability for people on other servers to follow you be OFF by default?
And, only people on the same server you are on can follow you by default?

Uspol, politics, health care, trans stuff, request for primary sources, :boost_appreciated:
Long story short, I got a letter last week saying coverage for my gender dysphoria was going to be terminated for next year. Obviously I contacted both the insurance company (whose support staff were just as confused to hear it as I was) as well as the clinic I had been going to to try and help me navigate this. I called again today and the insurance basically said "yeah, it's getting terminated, you can write an appeal letter for exception". I'm... Not confident that will go well, especially given I'm a federal worker right now and... vaguely gestures at administration.
However I also contacted my local governor's office and recently heard back from our democratic senator's staff. I did this bc, as far as I'm aware, it should actually be illegal where I'm at to discriminate based on gender identity for insurance coverage. I'm potentially getting a virtual meeting with my senator's lgbtq+ staff.
Now I'll make no bones about the fact that I kinda really want my needs to get covered, I feel that's understandable enough for anyone. However I also know that there's far more genderqueer folks than just me here who also need this health care.
What I'd like to ask is for ideas, thoughts, sentiments to bring to the discussion. I need ways to illustrate how cisgender folks get particular care that is denied to trans folks to emphasize the discrimination. And also primary sources for data and studies for me to look into as supporting evidence would be greatly appreciated.
I wanna make the best case I can, and convey it as understandably as I can muster. I may not be able to respond to everything immediately, but I'll be reading into everything I'm given as well as doing my own searching around. Thank you all!!

Looks like Apple upgraded the SSDs on the non Pro M chips. Cool, but I was kind of hoping to get at least another generation out of my 3rd party 2TB drive on my M4 mini.

I don't like how Docker messes with your firewall rules and will even force some degree of iptables dependence on you. I have tried using its DOCKER-USER chain but the results were flaky.
Podman, on the other hand, can be run completely daemonless and rootless meaning it will be not only uninterested but also completely unable to mess with your firewall.
This plus a reverse proxy give me so much versatility for a much lower cognitive cost compared to trying to make Docker behave.
Feels like such a basic thing to have your firewall rules managed strictly by you without any interference...

저도 브라질 연친이 종종 듣는 Tulipa Ruiz, Jupiter Apple 같은 한국 노래를 찾아볼까 했는데, 한국 인디씬에 있는 음악들은 좀더 감정적인 느낌이 많더라구요.
Tenho procurado algo acústico, algo de indie na Coreia. Mas acho que a música indie coreana é mais emocional.
