  • I see, thanks for the clarification.

  • I probably wouldn't have been standing at all, seeing as how I have no clue what "gamergate" is.

  • "They're super-terrible to work for and I've just coincidentally chose this period of the company's social implosion to quit and speak up. This is definitely not a bandwagon move. #metooLMG"

  • Isn't there a /c/drama this shit could be dropped in? Least technical article ever.

  • Thank you for the suggestion. Do you just reserve it for the hours it takes to print? It was my understanding that these take a long time to print.

  • Oddly, the title, as formed, works just as well, as one can see, without commas.

  • I've hopped to another server due to the abysmal uptime of late. I'll continue checking in though. I know they're working on adding sysops so I'm sure things will improve.

  • What did Gizmodo think might happen instead? That everyone, including those that were never impacted by 3rd party app changes, would just abandon the site, leaving it without users? "Peak journalism".

  • I love my Linux but this is absolutely delusional.

  • It really depends on where you live. For instance, in Western NC, I was completely left to my own devices on the trail systems. local IMBA group asked that I just keep track of my hours so they could add to the volunteer sheet that they turned into the forestry service. I was given the ok to take anything out I wanted; chainsaws, mowers, weedeaters, sickles, etc. In my new area, it's more structured so I joined a FB group for the local club and asked them if I could do maintenance on the trail closest to me. They gave me the go-ahead so I go out to that trail when I want to do work.

    I always try to find the most unused trail in the area to work on as I prefer the solitude when being out in the woods.

  • You'll find that your NSFW troubles can be basically made moot by blocking two instances catering to the critically horny. Although lemmy doesn't nativity allow us to block porn explicitly, there's a workaround.

    On the phone, I use connect to block the two problem instances. In the web browser, I use this user script to block them: https://greasyfork.org/en/scripts/469297-block-lemmy-instances/code

  • I don't know, it looks like it would make for some good toilet paper.

  • Trail maintenance. I spent over a decade doing work on neglected trails in western NC. Hours upon hours of hiking, weed eating, sawing, taking, etc. It was more exercise than biking the same trails.

    I'm struggling with the loss of the mountain biking I've loved for a long time. I'm trying various changes out to keep some biking in my life. I'm biking more slowly and for diminished distances. Also my wife bought me an emtb that I've been trying out on the trails. Less fatigue means I'm .asking less mistakes while out.

    I hope you find an outlet you enjoy. The loss is truly life altering.

  • I looooooovvvveeee theeeeee sloooooooooooow expooooosuuuuuure.

  • Is there a reason why you didn't continue your last long post? Is there a benefit to wiping those conversations from your OP repeatedly?
