The communities are started, just no activity.

There’s communities but just no one active. There’s game threads but am I just supposed to sit there posting to myself all game?

Proof aside form him admitting that he did it?

I like Lemmy a lot more than reddit but not having the sports communities over here really kills the usefulness for me. My main use on reddit is talking baseball/football/hockey/soccer/basketball and the sports world just isn’t over here.

Yeah, fuck this guy.

First, I have been online for almost 30 years. I’ve led an open source project for 14 years. I speak regularly at conferences around the world, and socialize with members of the Mozilla, JavaScript, and other web developer communities. I challenge anyone to cite an incident where I displayed hatred, or ever treated someone less than respectfully because of group affinity or individual identity.

So I hid my hatred from everyone for 30 years successfully. Now that everyone finds out that I donated to a cause to strip them of rights everyone wants to say I’m hateful? Give me one example where I displayed hatred…how about the time you donated to strip people of their rights? That might be a big one for me.

Here’s the thing. I don’t know if it will get a massive amount of usage. Lemmy is fine right now but not having the userbase that reddit has is brutal. I want to talk sports with people but all the sports communities are dead. If I look at an Orioles community the game threads have 12 comments all by bots giving pitching/scoring updates.

Just like a Hippo and a Zippo. One’s really heavy and the other’s a little lighter.

Right? If the hardware is in the vehicle, there’s no additional cost for them to enable it on all vehicles. If they want to have a way to offer vehicles for cheaper to increase sales, they’re not saving any money by doing it the way they are. They’re just saving on not having to make multiple models. But if that’s the case, just give everyone the damn heated steering wheel if it’s installed in the car.

How much color printing are you doing? We went with a B&W Laser because we didn’t feel like paying the premium to move to a color laser printer but we don’t do enough printing in color to really justify it either. Usually if we want something in color, it’s photos to put in frames so it makes more sense to just send them to wallgreens or shutterfly or someting like that. If it’s documents we need in color, we just send them to staples. It’s not frequent enough and the money we save on just using toner (haven’t bought toner since 2019) makes up for any small cost increase per page on color prints.

I have a brother B&W laser printer but for anyone looking for a new printer, be wary of brother. Their latest firmware stops the allowance of 3rd party toner/ink cartridges. It’s disappointing because I’ve been a big proponent of theirs for years. Haven’t bought toner since 2019 on our printer.

I don’t have the most overpowered PC. I just have a small little desktop (Minisforum UM700) and Linux runs a whole lot better on it. My work also was giving out some old laptops that they were retiring (still better devices than my laptop which was a Lenovo T420) but they came without an operating system. I’ve always enjoyed using Linux but never made the full change because I would need MS Office and switching from Excel to LibreOffice Calc was just annoying. Since I didn’t need to do work on my personal PCs anymore, I made the switch and I love it. Games run better for me.

I currently use Linux Mint but I might switch to just plain Debian (or Linux Mint Debian Edition once they release LMDE6 which will be based off Debian Bookwork).
