i3

With alacritty, qutebrowser, neovim and LibreWolf. I use my custom dmenu-based utilities for things like launching apps, locking (with slock), controlling (ie. postponing :D) redshift and music player and opening bookmarks, links and searches. Thunar is the most DE-like app I use but being comfortable with Bash i use Thunar just for certain tasks like organizing files like photos. For quick text edits, I sometimes prefer Mousepad. For screenshots it’s slop+maim.

I don’t “rice”, I just set some color schemes years ago and use simple wallpaper (which I rarely see.) And keep everything as minimal and out of way as possible.

(I don’t care about Wayland unless I’m somehow forced to. I mean, some of my utils depend on X11 for things like clipboard access but I suppose it could be fixed easily nowadays. However X11 works fine for me so if it ain’t broken…)

a moderator removing posts for a very far stretch interpretation of Rule 3

…stretch by which party? in the sense that the post not really about self-hosting (and OP tried to use rule 3 in a stretched interpretation), or that the post was about self-hosting but moderator applied it in unnecessarily strict way? The way you phrased it seems like the former, but then why would that result in moderator resigning?

(I’m not a native English speaker so sorry if it should have been clear.)

Syncthing for files, Nextcloud (synced to fastmail and file tree using vdirsyncer) for calendar and contacts.

TBH—and I’m not a native English speaker—I think it’s a bit ambiguously phrased. “Increase by 200%” would be more clear.

“Mark Zuckerberg” -> “cum rag berzerkk”

“but … the … it … … w… the thing … so … the …” 😵‍💫 🤯

when you could be sitting in a cafe or restaurant and contributing to the economy

or even better, being exploited for cheap labor in prison!

BTW, little newborn kittens or puppies are also called litter.

say “little kitten litter” 10 times

I don’t use pepper but I use Himalayan crystal salt so your point stands, there could be decent amount of dead Buddhist monks there.

(I guess I’ll have to be checking from now on.)

my pepper grinder is clear as well, but point stands, i don’t ever look there.

is your point to have the grinder so small that you can basically observe every individual seed in it to check if it’s not a beetle?

Death Boom sounds cool but the opposite would be “Birth Boom”.

I think it should be “Corpse Boom”.

LOL.

But to be fair, OP did not specify whether it’s Cyties Skylines or not.

“WLBR”

…just rolllrrrs … lorrrs … rolls off the tongue!

none but

Like knocking a napkin off the table that someone then slips on.

Don’t give them ideas!

LOL, Anthropic does rhyme with Titanic. cOiNcIdEnCe?

wow, fascinating.

(i watched the video to the end; i know it’s Monday afternoon and i still have work to do but I deserve it!)

wanting to advertise for the little guy in general is kind of pointless, it feels good until you realize that in a healthy ecosystem there are just always going to be more little guys–the middle guys are selected from larger pool and the big ones are selected from larger pool of the middle guys … it’s the evolution. and evolution is all about niches and being good enough.

the kind of link lists linked in the OP are actually awesome, but they are best served in larger number and in context. especially, if eg. i see someone make an insightful post or article and turns out the same person has a list of links, then it’s usually a treasure trove of more posts, articles, insights and even projects and communities. and yes, if i gave the link list to my mom it would be completely counter-productive, regardless of whether someone is a “little guy” or not. the littleness is not the point, the relevancy is.

and sure you could make link lists that are assorted ranging topics with the main criterion “the author found it interesting and want to share it and/or come back later to it”, and while some of that cake is eaten by micro-blogging sites like mastodon or bluesky (esp. the sharing and quick discussion). outright simple, structured lists also have own kind of charm.

Yeah I’m old enough to remember it. Also resuming or seeking would be risky as sometimes it would erase the prized buffer or break the player altogether. Sweet times…

I don’t remember the snake, though…
