Every subreddit has its own vibe. Some have fully transitioned here like linux and some of the meme sharing communities. Many have not. I cannot really think of communities on Lemmy that do not exist on Reddit.

Office Space, but also the IT Crowd

Just salt works too.

Run a live version of kubuntu from a usb drive to confirm wifi/lan drivers work and you can access the internet.

Rock horns. Shorthand for “that rocks” a more manly way to say I love that.

Thats great! I feel comfortable using the heart emoji with my wife and kids, but for co-workers it can be a little creepy depending in the circumstance. I started using the blue heart, but that just caused confusion. I found the horns conveyed the thought better without being creepy.

If I am pubbing then teams are rando and often the mix of team players is more important than any one player’s individual skill.

And a grandkid or two would be nice…

So you’re saying the ad driven internet will die? And we will be left with what? Wikipedia and Lemmy? I for one welcome our AI overlords!

That’s pretty amazing. Where is this?

Not sure why you got downvoted, it is a fair question. Real time multiuser editing is a powerful feature. That said it is really only needed a small fraction of the time for specific types of collaboration. Also, it can cause problems as well. Libreoffice Calc meets most of my home spreadsheet needs: calculating mortgage rates and future value of investments and such.

This is also a big issue for me. When I felt embarrassed because of something I did, I would tall myself, “You’re so stupid!” Which launched me into a shame spiral.

What has helped me break out of the spiral is to notice when I tell myself I am stupid and actively respond, “No I am not”

Sounds like screentime.

The weird thing about clothes is that we don’t think they are weird.

If you could somehow inoculate them against smallpox you might have a fighting chance.

Of course I want to think I would do better. Maybe I would manage to integrate with the local indigenous people, but the reality is I would likely die. Either way my knowledge of science and “advanced” civilization will benefit me not at all.

You would die. There are many, many examples of explorers from “advanced” civilizations getting shipwrecked or stranded in an area where primitive hunter-gatherers live. Unless they are saved by the hunter gatherers, they are doomed, despite their knowledge of science and technology. Joseph Henrich talks extensively about these examples in his book, “The Secret of Our Success”

He lost the case in that particular court but he won in the broader court of public opinion. The real loser was Wlliams Jenning Bryan.

Clarence Darrow, known for his defense in the Scopes “Monkey” trial, and more recently, Alan Dershowitz and Johnny Cochran.

Incidentally, the transcript from the Scopes trial is awesome. There is a book about the trial called “Trial of the Century” and it quotes from the transcripts heavily, a great read.
