Working from home was a difficult transition for me, but adding plants (and having good light) make all the difference. I thought you folks would approve.
The January transfer window was the best January window we have seen in a long, long time. Trossard, Jorgi and Kiwi marshalled in almost seamlessly, without any noticeable drop in quality.
Most Scifi fans I have ran into can pretty quickly rank the four stars –BattleSTAR Galactica, STAR Trek, STARgate, and STAR wars, but what lesser-known or less-prestigious shows hold a special place in your heart?...
I like this place. Not gonna lie, the only reason I go back to Reddit is for football news. I think we should start reconstructing the football community here.
I've seen a few maintenance contracts which not only require maintenance for the OS, but also for a very specific build of the OS too. Are you, by any chance, bound by any such contract?
My dumbass thought "Why do you need three zeroes after the decimal place" until I realized some countries in Europe have the comma and the dot backwards
I, much like basically everyone here, have been avoiding Reddit when possible, and the content here just doesn't hit the same. My fried dopamine receptors were certainly screaming for stimulation early on but now I feel an urge to touch grass and breathe fresh air. What is this? Am I dying? I still hate the angry lightbulb in...
A fellow mod informed me that about it as I was laying in bed. Reddit sent a message to the mod team and after 1 hour demoded me. I didn't even had time to see it, never-mind respond to it....
I am in the process of getting formally diagnosed with ADHD. So far, about two psychiatrists have basically confirmed it, based on my list of symptoms and my history.
I know this is a question for another time, but I’m losing a ton of weight right now and getting myself to look better. If it comes to getting medicated for ADHD, will any of the meds affect fat loss? I really don’t have any problems putting on muscle, but I do have a problem losing fat (genetic issue).
In the midst of all this, I've been taking the time this summer to nail down a routine for myself. I'm getting myself formally diagnosed with ADHD, working on a couple of projects and also working on losing weight. I've made positive progress everywhere, except I haven't been able to make as many friends as I had hoped to.
I'm sure eventually it will get better, but right now it keeps bugging me. I've been doing all that is conventionally advised - join meetups, hit up old friends, everything. Putting yourself out there is fucking exhausting lol
Imagine the blackout extending to more than two days.
While Reddit will absolutely fake their traffic numbers, claiming this is just brigading, we need to completely decouple from Reddit.
While it's regrettable that kbin.social doesn't have any mobile apps yet, I found that the browser version on my Android works pretty well. I loved using kbin.social on my android firefox browser.
Fuck Reddit. Fuck their monopolistic practices. Fuck anyone that tries these terrorist practices.
Next up - if Discord do something similarly boneheaded, we must have a Discord alternative. I'm already regretting paying them $30 for the Nitro basic version - it basically does nothing!
A silver lining, perhaps, is that kbin.social works extremely well on Firefox for Android. I've been browsing kbin.social since yesterday afternoon, and a significant portion of it has been on my android.
While there's not much content here for now, and sure, things may look a bit tedious, I'd rather this than Reddit's absolutely pathetic video player.
I do feel sad, though. I honestly thought Reddit would be the one to stick. Perhaps not. Oh well.
I just changed the filter in my Flo Mask Pro, which I had changed just before our two days of 200+ AQI. I was out (and masked) for maybe 4-6 hours total.
The filter was visibly darkened, which I've never seen before.
@mattblaze
Since moving to the US, I've begun noticing just how cleaner the air really is. Average AQI around where I used to live was about 174, occasionally dropping to the high 60s.
Edit:-
I live in NC, and the AQI here hasn't been 200+, but I can tell that the air has gotten far worse in the last few days. And if someone like me, accustomed to almost daily 170+ AQI levels can feel the difference, I can't imagine how hard it is for the locals here.
And true to my word, I haven't opened Reddit since yesterday. Social media post-2008 was unsustainable and at someone else's expense (the investors). Now that they want their money back, social media will go to shit until better business models are developed.
Since the lockdowns of 2020, social media in the form of highly concentrated chat rooms became popular again (Discord, please don't become any more shit than you already are!). If social media will be going monke again, 1997-style, so be it.
I'm considering hosting my own instance. I have a spare Windows/Linux dual boot laptop. Mf can stay connected to the internet and sit right underneath my router. Lemme sift through the docs see what I can find.

Is anybody else more active here then they were on Reddit?
When I was on Reddit I felt like my opinion didn’t matter. But here it just feels more open and free.
