Dope! Can’t wait til there’s packages for it :)

Xylitol.

Huzzah! I know a bunch of geeks and radicals, so maybe that’s why.

Yeah, that’s pretty much it. “Mutual aid” is meant to be distinct from “charity” which has a different kind of implication. Mutual aid is more about “we help each other”. Charity can absolutely be organized, but tends to be more “structured” than mutual aid efforts.

I have at least 3 friends IRL that are on Lemmy. One of them I got to join, and two are friends I met doing mutual aid and other organizing projects. Later found out they’re on here.

Gab’s exclusively for nazis.

I don’t know a bit about programming. Yunohost is a great place to start for self hosting a variety of services. For Jellyfin/downloading, I use Swizzin Community Edition. I like both of these projects because neither uses Docker lol. I tried some Docker based setups but could never get my head around it. YMMV.

I can relate to what I’m hearing from you. All I can say is that you’ll just have to bite the bullet and have the awkward situation now or have it be twice as bad later.

I guess that’s the idea. I’m just saying it’s normal for most people not to need lifelong advanced math skills. It’s also normal for people to not like or be good at math. I really found geometry to be intuitive, but algebra was opaque.

Instantly doubles the sandwich supply.

I don’t remember very much of “Of Mice and Men”, and I don’t remember very much of the math I learned in school either. I’m not mad about having learned/read that stuff, but I also don’t feel bad about not remembering/using it since.

Duly noted. Blocking this one along with the other serial whiners.

I don’t think they really are “light years ahead of the right”. Most of the difference as far as I can tell is in how they talk-- not what they do. Liberals fundamentally just believe in the status quo. MLK Jr saw it the same way when he described " the white moderate" as the greatest obstacle to change.

I’m definitely willing to engage liberals (and even conservatives) in honest conversation when I feel the context warrants the effort. Lemmy rarely seems to qualify.

Ear conditioning.

Keep a “cheat sheet” of common commands printed out nearby-- either something from the internet and/or a custom one for your own commands.

Also, nobody can remember all the commands. We mostly just remember the ones we use most often. Otherwise, we have to look things up! It’s not too bad since you know that the command exists and you just need to know the exact way to type it.

Find mnemonics to help remember certain things. For example if you want to decompress a .tar file, you remember “xtract zee file” or: tar -xzf

Ok.

I specified the ones in my comment. I like chat support, but I understand it’s not everyone’s preference. I don’t doubt your experience, just providing mine.

It’s great you are so happy in life, and long may it last! My advice to you would be: learn to really listen to others. Find out about them, and how they experience the world.

If there is a luxury whose absence would break you, then I would suggest you do a little “fast” from it, occasionally.

I love Yunohost and have used it for like 10 years. That said, if I was comfortable using Docker, I probably would just use that.
