When an online conversation is getting too heated, stop responding for a while. Give everyone a chance to calm down and get perspective.

Most of the jobs I’ve gotten were through friends I made at uni. Thanks to my education, I’m capable and skilled, but the friend network I made at school has gotten me in for interviews.

According to my sister-in-law’s then boyfriend (who was a biologist or an insect guy or something), spiders and insects can have lung-line organs called book lungs. So they have options. Creepy buggy insecty options.

A thirty-something woman was trick or treating at my town’s trunk or treat. She’d put effort into her costume. 🤷‍♂️

It’s gonna be really good

no

I remember getting these for games. They were awesome, but they never fit my keyboard.

It’s feature complete, but there are bugs.

Yeah. As much as I like Sync, I’m envious of aeharding’s constant improvements to Voyager.

Lemmy is substantially less combative.

That may depend on the community.

I have the opposite experience. I mostly post in niche communities on Reddit, and I find I’m ignored or get positive replies. On Lemmy I get responses, but odds are even that the response is snarky or bitchy.

I hope that will improve as the user base grows and we get more niche communities here.

I really enjoy Sync.

I was using Voyager until Sync got ported over to Lemmy. Voyager is great, but I find Sync more responsive. I also really appreciate Sync’s appearance customization. I’m old, so I like cranking the size of some text.

I think there’s an ad supported version of Sync if you want to try it. I paid the CDN$10 or whatever it cost on release. It’s worth it to me.

Phew

My phone app now has “audio emoji” which is just a shitty soundboard that plays into calls. I’ve started answering calls in the hopes that they’re scammers so I can start spamming the soundboard.

But I only ever get the robodialer. The scammers never pick up.

I trust my crap to update itself. Is that wrong?

That looks like a blast

You should anchor yourself to things.

Isn’t that link an ad for TunePat? It looks like a ripper that pulls tracks from Spotify.

I’m facing the exact same problem. My guy isn’t used to computers yet, so I’m trying to figure out how to get music onto the device in a way that works for him. I’ll probably end up buying and copying stuff by hand. 😞

It’d be great if there was a decent offline hardware option.

The industries supporting journalism have basically collapsed over the past few decades. If you have the means to support decent research and writing, please do so.

There are a tonne of realities that are very close to ours are populated by cockroaches and mutants.
