Looks like Jabba the Hutt. Am I the only one?

Woah, Slackware. You know your stuff. Respect!

DSub was recently forked as DSub2000. It’s pretty good for subsonic servers. Also, Tempo is great.

This instance is the vanguard instance of Lemmy. AFAIK, all development is tested here and any improvements and new code is introduced first in lemmy.ml and it it succeeds is then spread. Lemmy.ml encourages everyone to use a different instance, because they lack of infrastructure fire a big community. Ideally, we should be mostly old accounts.

Power Ampache 2 + Ampache/Nextcloud. It’s a client for the Ampacheb music server, looks gorgeous, works great and has excellent support.

I use both. Osmand+ allows me to contribute way more efficiently with PDIs and GPS traces as well as editing existing features, but when I want to navigate, I prefer Organic Maps. I also like more their rendering since it’s faster across all my devices. They are both useful apps. My main gripe is with the data in my area, as everyone uses Google or Apple’s data we struggle with contributors.

The best app for users of the OSM data.

How do you people propose to call them? Expansionists? Colonialists? Genocidists?

You just gotta fight back and live your life. Sounds simple, but in my country, we lived through “the perfect dictatorship”. We know this shit.

You’d probably like Paul’s Boutique by the Beastie Boys. You may also wanna try Nujabe’s Modal Soul.

The one about the head of my sister.

It was a total tragedy. My sister dies at fifteen in a train accident, all messed up. Except her head. While mourning for her, my family members start hearing rumors about her being miraculous. The rumors became a cult. The thing is, my sister’s head was invulnerable. Her head wasn’t damaged at all in the train wreck, and even dead, her head wasn’t decomposing.

People started coming to see it by themselves. It was true. Her head was pristine, but for us, for me, it was still my older sister. The cult became a part of the church. They built some temple for her head where people could go to see her. I remember the altar. It was all made of crystal, sometimes they put flowers there, giving it some color. Her head was inside a crystal cube on a pedestal, so people could watch her from every direction. They put her a crown, like a quinceañera (this is similar to a humble crown in one of those female beauty contests). To get to her head, people had to climb like a hundred crystal steps, curved, not straight.

My sister’s head wasn’t neither alive. The head didn’t age but also wouldn’t talk. Her eyes were always shut, but you could see her face, her mouth displaying different recognizable expressions, like a shy smile or some concern. She looked beautiful.

Probably the invasion of our civilization by an army of some rock-like anthropomorphic civilization. They were intelligent and very hard to hurt. Even if I dreamed them as a child, I still remember their faces and big heads with those cat eyes. They were never alone and sized like robust basketball players.

Delonix regia, the original flamboyant.

I am kind of unemployed and just maintaining the house in order would take away those 24h in a breeze. Keep your house pretty, in order and well supplied.

Somehow, that’s comforting to me. And hey, it’s been almost a day and we are still around.

Sounds like a great way to reboot the DC or Marvel universe. How probable is this bubble bursts and affects us before we fuck up our environment for good? Would we be able to know if it already happened somewhere far from us? Like, “we have 5 years, that’s all we’ve got”.

I think the drug addiction crisis that they have is somehow preventing/delaying this to happen. But the elements for a civil war are there: access to weapons, ideological intolerance, economical imbalance, ever-differing state and federal law and policies, corruption in government and the probable rise of a political group that lost the presidency causing the Capitol Attack out of resentment, between others.

Democracy in the USA feels like holding with pins. I see the country as conservative to far-right with very few space for other political ideologies.

I can think of a couple of uses from the top off my head.

1. For parents. This is a way to control what kind of products your children could get, giving them a limited sense of control.

2. There are people that are not very generous when it comes to giving away something. Like those who won’t give money to beggars because they believe beggars will spend it in drugs. But in this situation they think they keep some control on the money they give away.

In both cases, if the person is smart enough, they will find out how to make cash from the gift card anyway. However, they’d be really gifted salespersons if they can get the whole value back.

Well, my guess is people got depressed discussing who is the less genocidal candidate to govern the most military powerful country on Earth.

If you can use Ampache, for example if you are using Nextcloud, you may want to check Power Ampache 2.
