DO NOT TAKE ANYTHING FOR GRANTED

• vote early if you can
• tell your friends to vote early
• contact your local campaign and see if you can help – it’s not too late!

So whoever carries that anime figure is literally Luciferian.

Gotta make that cheddar.

Awesome, thanks for the lead.

Hey, sorry for asking this here… I used to access public instances through a URL like this: https://redirect.invidious.io/watch?v=sTEm--FVNe0 and previously there’d be a long list of public instances, whereas now there are only 3-4. I assume this is due to Google’s attacks. If you have a link available, can you direct me to a web page or discussion or something that explains exactly what’s going on there? I’m interested in learning more about the technical details. Thanks.

The response was that they couldn’t stay operating if they paid everyone for being on call instead of us “supporting the company”.

That’s the heart of the matter. They wanted you to support the company, without the company supporting you.

Compare to excavation of the Atari video game burial:

Remnants of E.T. and other Atari games were discovered in the early hours of the excavation, as reported by Microsoft’s Larry Hryb.[48][49] A team of archaeologists was present to examine and document the Atari material unearthed by excavation machinery… Only about 1300 cartridges of the estimated 700,000 were removed from the burial, as the remaining materials were deeper than expected, which made them more difficult to access, according to Alamogordo mayor Susie Galea.[51] The cartridges found were from 59 different games, the majority of which were for the Atari 2600; six were Atari 5200 titles. Atari hardware was also excavated.[52] The burial was refilled following this event.

I didn’t; I made the chart almost a year ago, click on the link above it to see the 11-month-old comment.

It’s OK dog. The thing is, you figured it out. You’re better off than those that never figured it out. Now you just gotta move on from where you’re at.

Choices - we make them, chances - we take them

Some are mistakes, some we celebrate them

We don’t look back, cause so much we facin

I always stay proud of myself, I’m yelling, “Fuck regret!”

Someone overhearing this now knows that if they reach a Halloween party, they will be briefly immortal.

Excel is the one good piece of software in MS Office.

Last time I used MS Office was 10 months ago, and it had a bunch of annoying “features” related to sharing, etc. But PowerPoint has always had some great authoring tools. Sometimes if I was writing an article in LaTeX, I’d still do the figures in PowerPoint.

LibreOffice is a solid substitute, though.

Emo nights are a thing around the US, not sure about the crowd age.

This album SHREDS!

I was expecting to start the batton running, and pass it off to the next idea, or the continuation of the idea.

I think I see what you’re saying. Lemmy is indeed a place where it’s very easy to get involved, and people get involved in different ways. A lot of us just pick a community and start posting regularly. Some of us adopt dormant communities and bring them back to life. Others contribute by becoming mods or admins or setting up their own instances or debugging/coding. Even those people who were giving you reasons why the “transfer your account easily” project was difficult, they were helping you by telling you the challenges involved. Whenever a well-run project is started, you think about the hurdles, risks, and mitigations, then integrate those into your project plan.

I encourage you to keep getting involved. The trick is to find the right level of involvement for you, then sticking with it and seeing it through.

What I do to get around that is: subscribe to communities that are not memes, news, or tech, then read new posts by “subscribed” and “scaled”. When I run out of those, read “all” to find new communities to subscribe to.

That’s what Xi said.
