You are not wrong. But there are things you can do to make a point. Make Reddit as a 2nd class citizen and drive people to lemmy, mastodon and the others. Like add posts with no comments, just relay bot, … Make it clear.

Same with GitHub, it’s mirror to my Gitea instance. You can see stuff but you have to move somewhere else to contribute and report issues. Not a terrible thing to use these proprietary services and yet make them 2nd class citizens.

I came here to say at least it’s not discord then I saw your comment. Yes, there s mattermost, matrix, IRC, … I am not installing Discord, I am not opening an account. I mean what s next? host your community in Skype?

I am curious why not docker? it s pretty convenient in my setup (docker compose + traefik). If I need to migrate it s really simple, if I am to nuke a service just bring it down and delete the path.

I give haircuts to myself and the shaving device I got recently was like 40-50 EUR and it s expected to last a couple years like the one before it.

My reasons for not going to the proper place is:

1. I am always on the move (I might not speak the language of the current country)
2. I am lazy and prefer to do things at home rather than arrange an appointment or go wait there
3. professionals make the haircut look way better but it will last for a couple days / couple showers

Mine looks plain, in the beginning they look even worse then you start getting it. The advice I would give others wanting to try that: dont shave too much so the small imperfections will not be too obvious.

My pleasure! These people have been doing volunteering work for more than 10 years and deserve a lot of love. They had some meal plans also. They are great people and they need a lot of support.

Louis part alone needs to be extracted out as a separate one. Interesting.

I see Lunduke and I pass. He said too many ragebaity ridiculous things that he discredited himself already.

Why the switch when you can have the steam deck? I am confused

Gave up on gym membership already. Switched to home workouts (check darebee website and youtube) I feel way better with this compared to the gym. You cant have noodle arms also, so get reasonable dumbbells to grow your arm muscles (they are effective and easy to store also)

It s 40min at most daily from home workouts so you need less mental energy to get to it (compared to: prepare backpack, go to gym, interact with people, go back). I am on the Avatar Upgrade program.

I add early morning walks and occasional hikes to spice things up.

I use keepassxc + syncthing, super easy to setup and decentralized.

1. Fire Zeal and Fetch every API documentation listed there
2. Pull latest deepseek models
3. Clone entire debian current repo
4. Clone Firefox, Linux and the gnu coreutils
5. Clone Litecoin and Litewallet
6. Download the most recent dump of Wikipedia
7. Download all the maps and data available today in OSM

That should do for me

Arabic, French, English, Chinese (mandarin), Russian.

In my teenage years I really tried to master it well. I score relatively high in chess.com and lichess but I share your sentiment. If you are a chess master it doesnt mean you are super smart it means you are super good at chess.

Science confirms this in a way. Prof Andrew Huberman has a podcast episode about games in general and their effect the brain development and the takeaways:

• Games can help the brain development according to publications because of the different experiences that you will never have irl
• The positive impact was only noticed when you play a variety of games under different setups and not when you master a single game and play it a lot

Wouldnt be surprised either. I watched the documentary deep web and the feds admit publicly they were running half of the dark web business to make their way to the top. Like there isnt anything better to do than subscribe and wait (there isnt corrupt officials who sold their souls to aipac, congress doing inside trading, billionaires screwing working class and buying governments, healthcare causing ten of thousands of deaths, …)

it s not even worth pirating

Seems like something that could fit here

I was taking the CCNA course then tests in 2013. I remember how they were pushing their IoT prediction in the courses so hard.

IoT ended up cringe af. To control your vacuum cleaner, it needs to connect to a remote API server hosted in AWS then back to you sitting next to the vacuum cleaner. I could say at the time nobody wants that shit. Now I hate it even more and I skip all the smart products.

I have a similar feeling about LLMs now. They are nice, they solve some problems nicely, they are far from perfect, I dont want them shoved everywhere.

NextCloud is straight up unusable to me no matter how much resources I was throwing at it.

OpenCloud seems promising. I would definitely like to play with it a little. I would also like to check check how can I help with a thing or two there.

This seems like a similar story with matrix Synapse vs Dendrite.

That’s a solid point. They are both shit. Proof: they alternate and things keep getting worse for US and outside of it (as result of US policies or direct wars)

My party is slightly less bad than yours is the worst argument you can put. Be honest, they both don’t care about us.
