Jokes aside, I find the picture somehow very beautiful.

A few years back I worked at a home. They organised the whole data structure but needed to move to another Providor. I and my colleagues moved roughly just about 15.4 TB. I don't know how long it took because honestly we didn't have much to do when the data was moving so we just used the downtime for some nerd time. Nerd time in the sense that we just started gaming and doing a mini LAN party with our Raspberry and banana pi's.

Surprisingly the data contained information of lots of long dead people which is quiet scary because it wasn't being deleted.

Good point, but still I want to play a game.

Tails is easily the distro which surprised me the most. This is because, even tough I would rate myself a well aware privacy advocate, I didn't expect to see a full suite of privacy tools. I somehow just expected, that it would be just the Tor Browser and nothing more. I don't know what I thought tough. I need to mention, that Tails was one of my first distros I've used so I was kind of mindblown that all these tools could fit onto a USB Thumb drive.

Well feddit.de is down for quite a while now.

In my culture, it is almost weird for men to have feelings. Everybody knows that men aren't emotionless machines, but they sometimes forget that. So you can guess that hugging a man as a man is somewhat weird. Before COVID, it was common to give handshakes; after that, pretty much every interaction stopped. Yes, I would really wish that it became more socially accepted. Because I think, When everybody interacts on a physical level, people will be less tense and more relaxed.

Edit: Well I need to correct myself, I think it is not really a social problem, but it rather is a me problem. I'm not very comfortable with touching somebody so it could be that I've been ignoring those interactions for years.

Warpinator. I use it all the time, set a password, make sure you're connected to Wi-Fi and you are all set.

Open the windows at night and close them in the morning. If you have many electric devices, like I do, turn them off or put them into a dedicated room. With many, I mean lots of devices.

Alexa, how do I close this?

Image Toolbox Its a photo editor with everything you need. Its really really powerful and so fleshed out. Everytime I use it, I discover something new. The only sad thing is, that I can't donate in XMR otherwise I've would of donated. If you have an android, download it and try it. It's a must have on any phone imo.

  • Game: TLOZ:BOTW
  • Book: 1984 by George Orwell
  • TV Show: Attack on Titan and Neon Genesis
  • Movie: Contact, Interstellar.

A cool idea I've had for a long time (or rather a dream) was a truly private and good suit auf office programs like Microsoft 356 but with privacy and the customor in mind. No anti-consumer things generally.

That's what I do, well I don't clean the Filesystem of the OS my company decides, but I hook up my phone or sometimes my own SSD and just start organizing.

Interstellar

As far as my knowledge goes, she went to a private school then got pregnant with, like, 20 or 19-ish. Then she did lose a little control of her life. But I think that she might've been successful with her career and may have gotten her life under control.

I don't know if she was the smartest kid, but she definitely got good grades. My class was honestly full of lazy people, including me. I've changed a lot, so I would say that I would now be the smartest kid, because I was one of the first who actually did realize how tough life is.

I don't have an account long enough but browsed through the different instances enough and I've never seen anything about genocide.

I like tuta.com (formerly Tutanota). The mobile app is really simple—so much so that they've only recently added a red and blue themed dark mode. Aside from that, I have never encountered any problems in my few years of using it.

They offer both free and paid plans. I recently decided to subscribe to Tuta to support their project, although in previous years the free plan worked fine for me.

i wish a lemmy community existed like r/wordington with unhinged content. And more communities dedicated to games, which are active like a Terraria community for instance.

I live in switzerland and my lunch costs CHF 2.50 so I don't know where you've been eating for one hundred + francs for a 'real meal'.

Ignore the critics

Let’s say you’re planning to read a new book, watch a Movie or, in my case, considering purchasing a new video game. I usually check review sites like Metacritic to see if it was well-received. For some reason, critics always seem to praise the worst games and shame the best ones.

I know I could just skip reading these reviews, but since I don’t have a lot of money, I need to make smart choices. Sometimes, the reviews from the users help a lot.

I think it's french for Monday-Thursday.

I tried Ubuntu Touch for about a week or two (absolutely broken on the OnePlus 5 btw.) I kind of had a VM of Android on it. I used Waydroid for apps I need, like E-Banking. Waydroid was an absolute mess, it constantly crashed and often played Music via Speaker instead of Bluetooth.

Edit: I really liked the way, how to interact with the whole os. The habit to switch apps and show the sidebar stuck with me for at least a month after my little experience.

Copper. Because without copper, most of the named things wouldn't be possible to create!

Well I found mine while looking for a moderately large company. I've learned, that big company's and small family businesses don't allow much downtime and freedom so I went looking for the middle.

Underrated:

  • Scarlet Nexus
  • Wii U Gameland
  • Colobot

Deserves a Second Chance:

  • Atomega (Died because ubisoft didn't update it)
  • Biomutant, Lots and lots of dialogue but I actually liked it

I absolutely loved PVZGW. I have great memories of playing it.

Thanks, that fixed it. I did not know that Spotify has its own settings.

The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass. Still one of my favourites. The only problem is, that my DS Lite has seen better days. I'm currently hoping that some new handhelds will come out with a dual-display. I know that Ayaneo has one but I don't want the latest and greatest Ryzen, I mean phantom hourglass works perfectly with an Nvidia Tegra chip or something from that generation.

The Iron Giant. It isn't horrible, but its a lot better in my memory than when I watched it in my adulthood.

I've been robbed twice. The first time was a classic trick. One day after school, I was trading Pokémon cards as usual. I had just received a new pack and went to the kid who checked for fake cards. He told me that one card, the Kyogre EX, was fake. I was suspicious because I had mentioned that Kyogre was one of my favorites. He explained that the redness on the back and the paper thickness were off. I trusted him and showed him my entire collection, keeping the Kyogre. After chatting for a bit, I took my book and went home.

The next day, I did the same thing, but when I got home, my entire collection was gone. My mom called some teachers, and it was a big deal because losing something as a kid feels devastating. A few weeks later, the kid approached me and said he found something in the boys' locker. I checked, and it was my collection, but my beloved Kyogre and Pikachu were missing. I asked him directly why he took those two cards, and he denied it. He offered to trade me for "similar" cards. I agreed, lost five cards, but got my two favorites back.

The second time I was robbed was about two years ago. A seemingly legitimate Amazon delivery driver rang my doorbell, handed me my package, and started making small talk about how beautiful my lawn was and how he wanted someone to make his lawn look like mine. At that moment, I had no idea what was happening. I later suspected that my bike and skis were taken and stuffed into the delivery van. To clarify, it wasn't an Amazon Prime delivery, but it looked similar because of the blue color.

After the small talk, he said goodbye, and I checked my package. To my surprise, it was an old book, like the free ones libraries give away. I felt something was off, but since I’m not a morning person, I went to work without thinking much about it. When I got home and went through my usual routine, I felt like I had forgotten something. I remembered the Amazon guy and the package, and then I realized that Amazon doesn’t ship to my country. I know that sounds like an important detail to forget, but I can be pretty forgetful.

Confused, I checked my lawn and then turned my home upside down, quickly noticing my bike and skis were missing. The bike wasn’t a huge loss since I didn’t ride much, but it still hurt because bikes aren’t cheap. The skis were particularly upsetting because they were a gift from someone very important to me. Luckily, my insurance covered everything, but the sentimental value can never be replaced. The police were informed, and some of my neighbors were also missing items.

Kvaesitso is such a good launcher, have yet to find something which is better.

Coop Prix Guarantie CousCous salad.

Libreoffice has some great tools but when you use Excel and Word for 8 hours a day and then switch to calc or writer it can be really frustrating. LibreOffice also lacks collaboration, as mentioned by Tehdastehdas

No, but Copper was a discovery.
