I remember when everybody was using Ask. That was a long, long time ago.

I’m not quite sure how people use Debian on a desktop machine. Do you not fall asleep while you’re using it?

That didn’t take long.

I’m more of an Aldi guy but I’ll give Lidl a go. Here’s the link to the cloud company for those interested:

Or if it’s not something that’s valuable to you just do it the easy way.

They’ve been under pressure in the EU to tackle fake reviews. Might be something to do with that.

My mother-in-law’s parents really wanted a boy and they were going to call him Nicholas. When she was born her mother wouldn’t look at her and didn’t want to name her, so a nurse suggested Nicola as she’s a girl, and the mother just shrugged and said okay.

She uses her middle name as her first name now. She did actually make up with her mother while her mother was on her deathbed, it was all frantic and wills were rewritten and all sorts.

Wait and see. He’s centre-right and used to be in the same party.

No point getting upset about this, it’s inevitable. So many FOSS programmers work thanklessly for hours and now there’s some tool to take loads of that work away, of course they’re going to use it. I know loads of people complain about it but used responsibly it can take care of so much of the mundane work. I used to spend 10% of my time writing code then 90% debugging it. If I do that 10% then give it to Claude to go over I find it just works.

It took a few weeks for me. You may just need to slow your pace. I do it more by distance than by speed.

What’s that web interface thing? Is it home made? I keep thinking about doing something like that to save me having to remember port numbers for the different services on my home server.

Why are these companies wanting to pay to infuriate me? If I want to watch something and I’m suddenly interrupted by a 90 second unskippable intrusion I’m not going to have a positive relationship with your company.

Starmer said yesterday that the UK is pivoting away from the US to concentrate more on EU relations.

I honestly think this is an April Fools. I recall the Russians have a sort of darkly twisted take on it.

He only eats fast food on the road, when he’s at the White House or one of his own places he probably eats pretty well.

My two main issues are that I don’t want to keep seeing the same post repeated again and again as I scroll, and I want to be able to find a topic and not have to wrestle with all the different communities around the same thing. I just search for a simple topic and often there’s 20 with the same name and I have to find the one that everyone’s using.

I’m not in my 60s or 70s but people that age probably remember practising what to do if a nuke lands. This went on for decades.

Lemmy’s pretty left leaning, extremely left sometimes. There was a conservative community for a while but it turned until a place to ridicule conservatives.

Maybe just start a new community, I think there are people here but a lot on here refuse to even tolerate the right.

Refusing to even talk to people on the opposite end of the political spectrum just makes you another perpetuator of the massive political divide. Do you actually think anyone’s had their vote swayed by someone who refused to even talk to them. You’re not going to bring anyone to the left by demonising the right.

This sounds like ADHD and/or anxiety.
