Oh man, I think I'm coming down with a case of Explovid-23 on July 24... Better call out sick.

Jame-o to stop the pain-o

Big into tripels at the moment also. There’s a very tasty peach tripel out of Richmond, VA that I’ve been stuck on for a bit.

I used LibreOffice exclusively in college — it was a lifesaver for my broke ass, since most of my money went to beer and hobbies (DnD, home severs, guitars, more drinking…)

It got the job done, but I wasn’t doing a whole lot of writing fwiw. Once I got over the whole “save it using the correct format or your professors will fail you” hump, it was everything I needed and more.

Don’t do any writing that isn’t markdown now, and I write that in Vscode or Obsidian these days.

Picking an instance

After spending a few days learning about lemmy and other fediverse websites, I was curious about people's processes for picking a server that is right for them. I've seen most posts say to pick one that is not too big or small and that has similar interests as yourself. But if we are all mostly federated, doesn't it make the...

There’s definitely other instances that are English language now, fwiw.

https://fedia.io comes to mind, at least. I’ve seen a few others floating around.

Are you kidding me? I would kill for a user base that over reports.

Better that than the guy who downloads taxformpdf.exe and runs it without a second thought.

My DM recently ran the Beginner Box for our group.

Was a lot of fun, and is specifically geared at learning the rules.

We messed it up and botched a few things here and there trying to push the rules, but went in with the zero consequences mindset and had a blast.

Hope you get to run it soon!

Edit: I also highly recommend this character builder if you’re going to use R20 to run Pathfinder — R20s charactermancer was a bit limiting, at least when we played ~3-4 months ago.

Is this an acceptable place to post existential raccoon memes?

I use Userscripts across iOS Safari and MacOS Safari via an iCloud folder accessible to each. Has made life much easier for me on mobile.

Good -- I hope they do. But more than that, I hope that the userbase doesn't return.

I don't care if they choose kbin/Lemmy/Squabbles(?)/Pr0nhub Comment section/Whatever or a combination of those things -- but I hope they don't return to Reddit.

This is an exciting new opportunity for the internet, imo. Why rely on a single point of failure?

Only thing I could find on this is this toot.

Grain of salt of course -- of all subs, why r/Tumblr? -- but I wouldn't be surprised if we see this eventually for the larger communities.

Can't wait for his next project -- Christian is a class act, and Apollo was the only thing keeping me on Reddit.

I don't know how to tag mods here but...

Yes, mods. This comment right here /s

Watching comfortably from Kbin.

Watching absolutely bonkers porn sub names go by is giving me a laugh.

Infinity scroll in comment threads would be great too, unless I've just missed the setting for that one.

Working my way through "The Wager" -- not sure if it's what you're looking for, but I've been really enjoying it so far.

I dunno... I'm excited to be here instead of there. It's something fresh and new.

The content will follow. And frankly, I'd rather talk with a handful of people than a hive mind.

I remember what Reddit was like a decade ago. I'm excited to try something that -- at least in some small way -- feels like that did.

Thank you so much for your support! 😍

I just saw an email from Buy Me a Coffee. Not just one. I went in, and I'm truly shocked. Thank you all for the support; I would like to thank each and every one of you individually someday. Honestly, I don't know what to say. The account balance is $350, which will definitely allow me to develop kbin faster or at least not...

@ernest -- keep this up. You're kicking ass. This service has great bones, and I hope to stick around.
