You should probably discuss boundary setting with someone you trust. This situation might be only one part of a broader issue with your relationship with your parents, and you can probably make that relationship more beneficial and less detrimental.
Once you are legally and financially able to, you could move out (or take action to improve your financial situation to make it more likely you’ll be able to do so in the future). Distance can allow a relationship to change to your benefit. It seems that the majority of adults in the wealthiest countries don’t live with their parents: http://static3.businessinsider.com/image/5908feb9fcd8eb1e008b4681-1200/young-adults-living-at-home.png https://64.media.tumblr.com/42facc68776260a335473a2553bb7f59/410ac9df6d9c28a0-9f/s1280x1920/8be58d13087dc686c9edcab713f63fc4c538e99a.jpg
Note that, unless you have another reason to not want to be around your parents, I doubt that involving a state institution (like child protective services, a police department, a prosecutor’s office) in your relationship with your parents will be helpful. Knowing relevant laws is more useful to better understand what is socially accepted behavior, and to be able to know what public institutions are available to help you if you find yourself in a situation where they’re likely to be helpful.
Also, consider whether it’s appropriate to tell other people you know about this situation. If you do choose to discuss this with other people, I would follow an escalation procedure so that information doesn’t need to spread farther than necessary (for example, tell friends first, then if you don’t see improvement tell adults that live near you, then if you don’t see improvement tell adults in positions of responsibility (like teachers), and so on).
You could inform your parents that state institutions might become involved if they cause you to be recorded while in your bedroom without your consent:
These quotes are discussing cameras, but I expect the same laws and principles apply to audio recordings.
If you receive mail to an address and are an adult, I expect you have rights similar to that of a tenant.
You may want to ensure you have deposited any money you have acquired into a bank account you own (so there is a record of how long you had it, so it would be more questionable if they tried to claim it isn’t yours). It might also be useful to use a separate bank account to receive and account for wages (since it seems there are special exceptions for wages, so keeping clear records of what money is wages and what is not might be useful), and it might be useful to have a UTMA custodial account (like one described at https://www.fidelity.com/learning-center/personal-finance/custodial-account-for-kids) (to enable making it even more clear what property has been transferred to you) (note that this does allow a custodian to use the property, but only for your benefit) (note you probably can’t “transfer” money to yourself, so any money you already acquired should probably be managed without using a UTMA or UGMA account).
A community named like “Ask Lemmy” would probably be most useful to get questions answered, like !asklemmy@lemmy.world or !asklemmy@lemm.ee
There probably aren’t enough people with historian questions to have enough questions to get people checking a community every day/week, so questions on that or any other specific topic would probably get seen by more people by just making a post in an “Ask Lemmy” community. However, !askhistorians@lemmy.world exists with 10 posts since 28 June 2023! I expected to not find such a community or for it to have significantly fewer posts.
You can also search specifically for communities, comments, users, etc.: https://sh.itjust.works/search?q=Ask&type=Communities&listingType=All&page=1&sort=TopAll
There is also !whatisthisthing@lemmy.world and other “what is” communities, which would be more useful for that specific type of question.

If people were more resistant to “grandfathered” features I think we would not have as much software as we do today: https://www.jwz.org/doc/worse-is-better.html https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Worse_is_better
provide about 50%–80% of what you want from an operating system
one expects that if the 50% functionality Unix and C support is satisfactory, they will start to appear everywhere.
Unix and C are the ultimate computer viruses.
users have already been conditioned to accept worse than the right thing.
It’s probably possible to make several programs with “50% functionality” in the time it takes to make one program with 100% functionality. Having more programs that are suitable for a majority of relevant applications is probably better than having one program that is suitable for all relevant applications, since having more programs will probably enable a larger variety of problems to be solved, and people often have to solve many different types of problems in their life.

Some operating systems may handle long path or file names in a surprising way, so having short paths and names is useful: https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/basedefs/V1_chap04.html#tag_04_13
If any pathname component is longer than {NAME_MAX}, the implementation shall consider this an error.
if the combined length exceeds {PATH_MAX}, and the implementation considers this to be an error, pathname resolution shall fail
{NAME_MAX}
and {PATH_MAX}
are described in more detail at https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/basedefs/limits.h.html#tag_13_23_03_02 and used in the context of https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/utilities/pathchk.html
The resources I linked are descriptive and not prescriptive, but in my experience they are suitable to depend upon as a reliable baseline, which makes meeting client requirements with software engineering easier.
You surely need to explicitly cause systemd
to process changes after writing to a file. I would be very surprised if it reacted to file system changes automatically.
For example, I recall that I need to execute a command like systemctl daemon-reload
after editing a service
file: https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/364782/what-does-systemctl-daemon-reload-do
You might get more useful information from resources like https://www.man7.org/linux/man-pages/man1/systemctl.1.html
https://80000hours.org/ probably has information relevant to you, and they do have specific comments about IT roles, and many careers they talk about are related to computers in some way.
Please share what you’ve learned by suggesting changes to https://github.com/privacyguides/privacyguides.org/blob/HEAD/docs/desktop.md
Are you referring to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_Cube
https://github.com/privacyguides/privacyguides.org/blob/HEAD/docs/email.md and https://www.privacytools.io/privacy-email document services you’ll probably find interesting.
It’s probably about as likely that other email service providers will shut down (or at least make the service they provide worse) unexpectedly.
A more sustainable solution would be to make it easier to self-host similar services and giving your contacts more help with transitioning to more privacy-respecting solutions.
I’m personally not very worried about proton.me or tuta.com shutting down without giving me much time to replace them, but it’s a possibility I keep in mind as it would be inconvenient if that happened, and I can do a little bit to make it less inconvenient if it does happen (e.g. by registering alternate email addresses with any person or company who wants to talk to me).
Why would you need an app when an account settings page and a web interface for posts exist? What need is that combination not meeting for you?
What is the best recommendation for you is influenced by what you like and dislike about Ledger.
Perhaps you should peruse wallet lists like https://bitcoin.org/en/choose-your-wallet https://www.getmonero.org/downloads/ https://z.cash/ecosystem/?wallets=#tag-wallets https://firo.org/get-firo/download/ or look at the project page for a cryptocurrency you’re interested in as linked from https://coinmarketcap.com/ or https://www.coingecko.com/
What were you attempting to do with joinmarket but getting issues with? What do you think is missing from the current documentation?
I suggest you read https://www.catb.org/esr/faqs/smart-questions.html given the reaction to your posts so far.
I do not see any reason to talk about my joinmarket experience. Saying I have used it profitably is the same as admitting I have made money by laundering money, and that would obviously be against my interests. I would much rather you believed I had no prior knowledge of how to use cryptocurrency.
A similar question was asked and has many answers at https://monero.town/post/264428 with the title “Some qestions about buying Monero with fiat…”
The only way I know of to get passive income from Bitcoin is to use https://github.com/JoinMarket-Org/joinmarket-clientserver
For non-passive income, something like https://haveno.exchange/ is probably the most private way to get income
For less private ways to get income, I’d use something spoken highly of at https://kycnot.me/ that allows peer to peer trading and reputation building
