Trying out this whole thing...

Wild! Wonder how that thing handles compared to a more common bakfiet-style.

Are rat posts ok? (reddthat.com)

This is Obama and Trump (I'll let you guess who's who), my first two rattos. They really opened my mind to the concept that pretty much every animal has a unique personality and temperament. I had to put them both down at different times due to ill health; another thing I quickly learned about rats. Still, we thoroughly enjoyed...

Love rats! But after being gutted losing two mischiefs, my heart just can't take owning them anymore (or maybe they owned me??). Love to see them on my... dash? Are calling it a dash?

Toronto to Explore Amendment of Canadian Constitution that would recognize and enshrine certain City of Toronto Authorities (secure.toronto.ca)

Passed today by the city council (16 to 5) was a motion asking for a report on amending the constitution to recognize Toronto as some sort of entity, limiting the degree to which the city would be subject to the provinces whims going forwards....

Would love to see a Province of Toronto, but if Charter Toronto is a better possibility, I'll take it! Anything to keep us from continuing to be a "creature of the province" that seems to hate us.

I have zero need for a cargo bike, but I can never quite seem to stop dreaming of them...

Oh, that's cool. Looks useful! One thing that intrigues me most about Unix systems is how configurable they seem to be.

Elder Scrolls Online, Medieval Dynasty, Sims 4 and The Long Dark right now for me. Been trying to get Cities: Skylines working well, but I find it gets bogged down quickly as the city grows.

Hi /kbin! I'm currently working on a small browser extension for /kbin users.

This extension helps users subscribed to Lemmy communities by adding an icon before mentions or URLs related to other communities. These mentions can be in the format "!communityname" or through URLs like "https://lemmy.ml/c/memes"....

Good idea! Will this work only with kbin.social, or will we be able to use it with other instances, in future?

Nice! Thanks for building it!

I've given it a try for a solo instance, spinning it up on a Digital Ocean droplet -- but I think I messed up the configuration. So I figured I'd wait until there's better documentation, as more people (who are way better at this stuff than me!) figure it out.

That said, I'm happy to help contribute to the documentation once I understand it myself, but I'm really just a tech dilettante.

Excited to see this community spring up! I just got started with Pop!_OS (and my first real machine) on an old Pro 3. I'm impressed that the screen and everything still works!

Looking forward to learning some tips and tricks!

@Darkrai Thanks for pointing it out!
