Oh wow, I’d forgotten all about geek code.

Are you being human trafficked?

Short stories is the answer. They do seem to mainly the province of horror and sci-fi but even if that’s not a favoured genre(s) it’s a way back in. Try Night Shift or Skeleton Crew by Stephen King (give The Mist a miss though, it’s not really a ‘short’ short story). Take it a page at a time, stop reading the minute you start to lose interest, try again 15mins later. Remember it’s fun activity not a competitive sport, take all the time you need, the books you want to read are going nowhere :)

You really need to re-read that book, but without the preconceived rightwing slant.

Are you trying to compare OP with Galileo?

If I’m referring people to a book I always use a link to its OpenLibrary entry. If I’m discussing a book, I do it on the Bookwyrm instance I’m on.

In short - use both :)

Does docker need to be already installed on my local machine and my VPS?

After installing the wallet from getmonero, I went to localmonero.co and located a reputable seller in my country who accepted Amazon gift cards bought with cash.

I then bought an Amazon gift card using cash and kept the reciepts.

I then, as per requirements of the seller, took photos of the gift card number and the receipts to demonstrate the date and the fact I’d paid with cash. After sending these images to my PC I edited them in gimp to remove store identifying info from the receipts image, ran both images through a metadata removal tool and initiated the trade with the seller with the images. They accepted the trade and approx 20mins later the XMR was in my wallet

I have Ampache running on a self hosted server, which has desktop and mobile apps.
