  • in the height of covid panic, there was a wheelchair bound, oxygen tank connected, customer whom I still respect for unrelated reasons, who insisted on entering my store without a mask because he was disabled. My dude. If you are so weak that a mask would kill you, you should not be going to stores right now. Do you not know that there's a plague happening!?!?!? There are delivery services, and it doesn't cost that much.

    Americans will find any excuse to justify their lazy entitled bullshit.

  • while I agree, the reality of the situation is that when you get down to comparing feature to feature, open source solutions tend to be technically inferior to proprietary ones.

    I use linux because I hate microsoft, not because it's more feature complete than windows (it isn't).

    I use lemmy because I hate u/spez, not because it's more feature complete than reddit (it isn't).

    I use blender because it's free and it's actually kinda great, if all free and open source software was like blender, then it would be a no-brainer to use FOSS all of the time, and it would be easy to convince the normies to do the same.


    also also

    I'm using linux mint, i have minor complaints about it, but nothing worse than what microsoft is currently doing with windows. It's just different, and that bothers me. middle click paste is the bane of my existence, but other people swear by it. Just before I switched over, I learned about windows 10's built in emoji keyboard, and I really liked that. A year later (literally last week) I discovered a program that does most of what the windows emoji thingy did, and I can manually edit a keybind for the function to accomplish amost the same thing. FOSS, yay, it's free if you don't value your time in currency amounts. FOSS could be so good if only it were good.

  • for the bread and cheese, I'm not a foodie. I'll get medium ish quality stuff at the grocery store, and it exceeds my expectations.

    for the butter, come on, its butter. butter is love, butter is life.

  • I don't do much in a kitchen, if I did I'd have a chef's knife. I'm a weirdo though, so what I do and what I know are best practices frequently don't line up.

    To counter your examples though:

    Bread? pre-sliced.

    Cheese? pre-shredded.

    Butter? melt and pour it baby.

    So far I didn't need a knife at all.

  • that stuff is nice as an option. There's a bar I go to that I can order my food and drink to the table my friends are at, while I'm walking to the place, and everything just arrives shortly after I sit down. Other people get offended about how fast I get served, it's always amusing. I also enjoy not interacting with the staff, nothing against them, brain just doesn't brain sometimes.

    But what if I didn't have a phone? or if I left home without it? 24/7 pocket rectangle is not natural.

  • I fucking LOVE obsidian, one of my most used pieces of software.

    I have two note vaults.

    One is my personal "everything" not vault, Anything I might need to write down goes there. No random sticky notes, or half used notebooks for me. Game notes, such as what equipment I'm looking for, or solutions to puzzles I'll forget before I can use the information. More practically useful notes like conversion charts to use imperial measurements in blender and godot. Names of people I need to remember and what their handles are on social media, because most platforms don't help you with that. Everything can be interconnected, so some notes are just indexes of other notes.

    More impressive is my lore wiki. There is a book series that I will never write, and these notes document the setting. Characters, events, locations, other authors who have helped over the years. Anything that is a proper noun or is otherwise special to the setting is a link to a note of that name.

    Obsidian also has "graph view" which visually organizes notes so that things that are connected are physically closer together. I just wish I could give these notes icons on the graph view so that they'd be more visually distinct.

  • I'm of the opinion that federation should only prevent a community or instance from appearing in the all feed. I should still be able to subscribe to communities that my instance has defederated from.

  • As far as billionaires go, he's the least shit of the bunch. No idea what his personal life is like, and I don't want to know. Every billionaire that makes their personal life public so far has turned out to be a giant cunt.
