The Last Waltz -The Band

My wife calls her Camry: Whale Tits.

I don’t really understand what it is you’re after. Do you want a place where people only get positive reception no matter what they say? Maybe that exists in a group therapy session, but I don’t think that’s what you’re asking for. Is it?

Is it about getting down voted? Who cares? You can’t control how other people react to your opinions and you shouldn’t try. Lemmy is diverse and it is federated. Each instance and community has its own rules and culture. If you don’t find any of the communities to your particular liking, you can always start some of your own.

I think your premise is flawed. There’s no such thing as a “hivemind” or what it implies. Opinions will exist on a spectrum of popular to unpopular depending on the community they’re posted in. I would say that those descriptors are perfectly adequate as they are.

Whenever I saw someone complaining about the “hivemind” over there, they were invariably whining about people not liking their unpopular opinion on something. When you say “hivemind” you are equating anyone with that opinion to insects/drones/NPC etc. Just because you’re different doesn’t mean you’re right.

For sure being vegan has gotten a lot easier since I started. At home, I’m very lucky that she does most of the cooking. Sometimes she eats what she makes for me, other times she makes herself something separate. I wash the dishes to my own standards, so I don’t worry about “contamination” except for a few things: cutting board, frying pan.

Being (or being with) a vegan can be super inconvenient at times. After all these years (married for 21), we are super well-adjusted to it.

I’m vegan (24 years) and my wife is not. That doesn’t bother me, but I couldn’t handle it if she was religious.

Whenever I got to my favorite falafel/kebab place, I order a side of tahini sauce. I mix a bunch of ketchup in there and dip my fries in it.

Probably yes. This would be for if you are starting fresh. It is a modified Debian install.

Yunohost is self hosting. You install Debian on your computer/server at home and run the Yunohost setup script.

Yeah, I can’t fuck with Docker either. Check out Yunohost if you want something that is actually easy to get up and running.

Love it. Been using it for almost 10 years now. I host Nextcloud, Navidrome and Gotify. I have used it for other services over the years. Super easy and really friendly and responsive support.

Do whatever you want.

Edit: Be genuine and honest with people. Be open. You’ll meet the best people this way and have better relationships. You’ll also discover who you shouldn’t waste time with quicker, and you won’t waste theirs.

Most of them.

Rusty on my reading of devanagari-- is that pronounced like “meharbaanii”?

Most people can change their beliefs. However, we don’t always have the time, and we aren’t ever obligated to entertain stupid beliefs.

Choosing my own default apps, getting apps from other locations (like F-droid), adblockers. Those are the big ones.

Which I cannot understand lol.

Yeah it’s his company, and I think that is basically it.

I don’t know, but I wonder the same. I’m in the US and work for a guy that has tens of millions of dollars. He still spends all day in the office 6 days a week. To be fair, I don’t think he does it for the money, exactly, but I can’t understand why he keeps working at all.
