If I went to macbook, tried my windows knowledge of CTL+alt+del, and it fails. I don’t blame the macbook.

What they said…

Find a new hobby based off popular communities you stuble across. I found Linux during covid, and I haven’t changed since.

I remember joing Lemmy, and seeing an almost 50/50 split of Star Trek or Linux. Now its more 40% Star Trek, 10% Linux, and 50% others, so maybe Star Trek is the next big thing. (Off the top of my head, the Other goes to USA Politics, German, or others I actually don’t remember, so that’s options 2,3 and 4-ish)

The last batch of 10 episodes, I only rewatched 2 of them after all 10 came out. Barely remember the rest.

As a south park fan, I’m not excited for new episodes

Highly successful

Student (14) told me he started streaming on twitch over the christmas break

We have a student here in Outback AUS. Amazing at high jump and long jump. Went to the Big Cities twice to represent his state in athletics. And he only got a chance because the new sport teacher came in and pushed for him to go.

Out last sports teacher wouldn’t have made the effort. And who knows how many other great students walked through our doors, and didn’t get a chance to train/go big because of funds/transport/staff engagement etc.

IRL, I have to explain that I saw a post on “weird open source reddit alternative”. While here, everyone is (mostly) on the same wave length.

We are not alone

Would Cave Johnson get mad at people abusing his invention?

Or would he immediately cancel all other tests, and start exclusively testing all the self pleasure applications for his invention?

Beep boop

Bodies (Drowning Pool) - Kids edition

I opened up my PC to find a 8TB SSD I forgot to plug in somehow…

Was dreading getting more storage for my jellyfin server, but now I don’t need to xd

I like the idea of you bringing your record player and records into the shower with you. (Is there a community here simalar to vinyljerk?)

I met 2 (or at least they looked like they did).

1 was a pastor of a local church, which didn’t have a set location. (No tithe collections either). Every week they would go to someones house or a community centre for their service. For me it looked like they chose being a Christian vs acting like one.

The other was homeschooling his kids from a trailer out of town (which looking back, might be abit TOO brainwash-ey, but the kids are gown up now and seem normal. So maybe he raised them right, or the kids grew out of it after school.

If you played Nier Automata, there’s a line/concept about ‘meaningless code’. The characters in the game are just androids. 1s and 0s, yet we care about the characters.

We are all just meat sacks roaming around, yet we still care about those meat sacks. I just met you as a username. A bunch of characters on a screen. Yet I’m treating that bunch of characters as a human being, and talking to them.

And if you like the odds of you exsisting, the graphic novel Watchmen also has a great chapter about that.

I saw a cool video here once. Typed the EXACT title to YouTube (including caps in the right words) and it didn’t show up. Only the big channels around that topic.

If I want to watch 10 minutes of funny shorts/tik toks, do I

a) open my feed, where I have a chance to find not funny content, and have to physically swipe for every video? Plus laughing alone is not as fun as laughing with someone else

Or

b) watch sniper-ali-freerobuckz watch the good ones, and I can sit back and enjoy someone to laugh with?

I’m not defending reaction content. They are obviously lazy and just copy-pasting for easy views, but I can see why they get clicks.

Books or movies? Book year 5

As I’m typing this out, I’m suddenly remembered of Um, Actually, and how this could have been a good question for the show

Onion rings.

Tried it at I think ALL of the resteraunts in my town. (10-20+). ALL of them tasted like heart faliure. Like, I’m sure chips/french fries are also unhealthy, but I can’t feel my heart slowing down with every bite like with onion rings

Is this still online? I can’t wait to try this for 5 minutes and then get a head ache and give up.
