Domain squatter is a bad term.

Real life squatters are taking something held out of use and returning it to use. That's pretty cool.

What we call "domain squatters" are really "domain speculators."

Speculators in real life hold things away from use to try to extract value from people who want to make good use of it. They're bad and should be eliminated.

This is what domain speculators do. They are also bad and should similarly be eliminated.

New (old secondhand) Pixel 5 is getting nicely set up, installed Lineage without a hitch and have most stuff configured

this is so nice, Nova launcher import/export shared over 'nearby devices', and it places ghost icons for all the apps I haven't installed yet with the ability to look them up when tapped

DBA wisdom 

@ghost_bird nightly in borg, filesystem on different disk (snapshotted twice at different points), db dump nightly, db dump now (snapshotted too)

reindex done, fs backup done, about halfway through postgres dump
