In all that is wrong with recycling to begin with, do I even need to put cardboard and paper into recycling; or does it just break down easily in all the garbage?

Edit to say - I’m really glad I asked my stupid question. I was so jaded by the con artists in recycling I forgot that when done right there’s so much good - and still loads of consequences to not finding a place to reuse the paper products. I’m not huge with using packaging - and thanks for all the thoughtful answers :))...

valek879,

I don’t know much but I’ve heard that landfills are so dense and thick that there is not enough oxygen to break down organic matter like did waste. I don’t know for sure about that and I don’t know how it applies to cardboard but that’s what I’ve heard and read and seen videos about.

I hope someone with more knowledge could give a better informed comment.

To add to everyone else, I moved from Kodi to Jellyfin and it was a game changer for my home server solution. (I run the server off of my gaming PC)

Where are the best sites/things to find english manga books?

I have trouble finding english manga actually i havent found any online yet, most places are for books or in something i cant read. manga is pricey so i thought i could maybe print my own for personal use and to learn a new skill but that seems dumb, either way i want to read manga....

valek879,

If you’re a real nerd about it and can get in BakaBt has crazy big full books. Manga and light novels. We’re taking Gigabytes for single volumes… They look very nice though.

Otherwise Tachiyomi is great and usually the stuff online is high enough quality to satisfy me and had kept me from running my own Ubookquity server.

No no no, they are fuzzy little stoner bunnies! Viscacha wake up, get some food and then sit in the sun and take a nap. They are fabulous and everyone should aspire to be like the viscacha!

This is why I always have the high beans on when driving my 90’s car. I’ve got to fit in with the cool kids (oh and be able to see the road despite the blinding lights coming at me.)

valek879,

I hate being in a gym, all those people around, not being able to see outside, stationary…yuck.

I picked up cycling and try and ride my bike frequently. I used to be much more into it, but that was also as a stoner kid and it was a great way to get out some energy before work and calm down after work.

Now it’s more of an effort but I like to reward myself with a beer and some food. I try to ride about 14 miles every other day. It takes an hour or two at my pace but I can spend that time thinking, listening to music or a podcast. It can be really meditative and it feels good to have my muscles tired.

valek879,

Just ride a fixie, every hill is strength training.

valek879,

RIP your legs, I have freaking trunks. It’s stupid how big they are, I can’t get both hands around just above my knees. I would rather have chicken legs.

valek879,

Another former Relay user here. I am using mostly WefWef on my phone. It’s not perfect, in many ways but it feels pretty good all around. If that’s not working or something else is going on I typically look at Jerboa, Connect, Thunder, then Summit. In that order. I just don’t know what to do otherwise.

There is nothing to really fill the gap left by Relay, not yet, but I’m finding WefWef to have most of the features that I am looking for and to be the most stable and usable.

valek879,

It was a case of: Lemmy.ml isn’t accepting new users atm BeeHaw requires me to tell them why I’m a good user So does this other instance… Why do I have to justify myself!? Hey, Lemmy.world let’s me just sign up! Perfect!

And that was how I chose an instance. Thank you for joining story got with Valek

My Analysis of the Switch in mid-2023 (Long Post)

Nintendo’s hit console, the Nintendo Switch, released worldwide on March 3rd, 2017. Despite being less powerful than its direct rivals, Sony’s dominant PlayStation 4 and Microsoft’s less-impressive Xbox One, Nintendo’s handheld/console hybrid system captured the attention of gamers all over the world – to the point...

valek879,

I just want a Nintendo Switch Advanced.

They have their Gameboy and a Gameboy mini, the OLED Switch was the Gameboy Color. Now we need our Advanced. Backwards compatible, but bringing in some new features and higher specs. No need to reinvent the wheel, just iterate for a generation and give devs more power to play with.

They are ice and snow catcher things. They come in different forms, sometimes bars and these new versions in your picture. They hold the snow and ice in place during the winter.

Ice and snow will build up and weigh a ton, sometimes literally, and that weight falling on someone could easily kill them. With this system you are far less likely to have the entire sheet come down and it lets the cold stuff melt on the roof instead on people’s heads.

valek879,

I'm replying on Connect for Lemmy. I just looked at your app and it's super dope but I've got to say the one thing that throws me off is the button for the link is on the far side from my finger. I also like swiping to reply and vote and nonsense like that and your app doesn't have it.

Take your time however and implement things well and I'll keep it in mind. My favorite app for Reddit was Relay I think I will be looking for an app until I get something similar or exactly the same.

List mode ftw

valek879,

I keep seeing new communities daily and we're already the size of a decent city and much larger than the city I grew up in. We had all types from punks to queer kids to commies and fascists. We've got enough users to fill any niche I can think of and probably a lot more. And we're still growing, I don't remember reddit when it was this young, but there's a bit of an early 4chan (minus all the racism and homophobia and hate) vibe going on that I totally dig!

valek879,

Damn I want paying attention and you got me with that link! I haven't been on reddit for a week!

valek879,

Lemmings, that's what I've got in my head. 😉

valek879,

It makes me think of Discord servers. There are lots of channels that share the same name but they are all on different servers. You can visit any and all of them if you like but they are not connected.

Where this analogy fails is you cannot see or send messages without joining the server. And on Lemmy you can.

valek879,

Relay has been my go to for years. I'd pay again for a Relay for Lemmy app. Browsing Reddit is so fluid on it I'm sure... Is it Dave? ... Would make a great Lemmy app!
