Thank you for explaining. This is a good post

What does manumitted mean?

This makes me really happy, I’m glad you shared this :)

Man, in the thumbnail he looks a whole lot like Robbin Williams

I’ve heard amazing things about Rumble if competitive PvP earth bending in vr appeals to you

Is it a known thing that they were dishonest about speaking to a lawyer with that situation?

I’ve been meaning to change instances and find a new home, if it’s known that they lied or mislead their users thats something I’d love to know more about

I mean linux distros are in effect kind of like a bunch of different OSes all based on the linux kernel.

It definitely would have been more helpful for them to describe it as a distro though

Thanks for posting this :)

I can’t get to the store very often for medical reasons so I’d been looking for ways to eat more fresh veg that dont go bad immediately. I’ll have to check out some of the recipes mentioned

I do like their idea of salads that dont just use delicate leafy stuff. Does feel like an odd subject to write a whole article about though, but no reason not to of you’re an article writer I suppose lol

I have limited ability to get to the store regularly so more salads with ingredients that dont go bad immediately would be really nice, I’ll have to check out some of the recipes they mention

This is cool as fuck, thanks for sharing! I neither code nor am learning mandarin, but I hope you get some more folks involved who can contribute too :)

It might require posting places other than the fediverse though, I’m not sure this is a wide enough net to find folks who can get involved

Anyone know if there are any good places online to share foss projects you’re hoping to build with more people?

50501 is a great way to get connected! They have a discord server for NC (https://discord.gg/62cWYvwgs) with channels where folks will discuss other projects for a local area, it can be a great entry point! For folks seeing this it might be worth seeing if they have a server for your state also!

Don’t compete with other organizations, unite and collaborate.

Excellent words of wisdom. It will take working together.

I’m sorry to hear y’all have faced harassment, I imagine it varries by where you are. I’m fortunate enough to live somewhere pretty progressive despite being in a red state. Sending love my friend, thank you for your efforts!

I’m still trying to figure out how to get more involved myself. I have some connection to local organizing, but am trying to figure out how to get more involved when a sleep disorder has me asleep durring the day- if anyone has thoughts or suggestions for me I’d welcome them :)

Something thats been on my mind lately that might be a helpful idea for others is linking up with friends and being poll observers or volunteering as poll workers. There’s a lot pointing to the polls potentially being a dangerous place to go this election cycle (the MEGA act, and talk of deploying ice to polling locations), folks being there may be an important way to protect your community

If you’re knowledgable about CSS you could use the Stylish extension to customize websites, but given frutiger aero’s aesthetic, you’d probably have to add a bunch of images for ui elements, so I wouldn’t neccisarily expect it to be easy

Short of customizing stuff yourself, I think thats a really niche styling to be looking for, for already niche platforms. If you wanna check for other people’s CSS creations you can go to the userstyles.world site, or the older and I think now defunct userstyles.org, and search for mastodon, or any other sites you wanna check out themes for. There may not be many, customizing your websites with CSS stylesheets isn’t exactly a huge hobby, so the most themes are available for sites everyone uses (YouTube, Wikipedia, google, etc.). Any themes there you find could be used with the stylish extension, though it may require some extra work from the older site

As someone else who enjoys the y2k retro aesthetic, I hope you find something you enjoy :)

I should really look up if there are local grocers around me other than farmers markets. Thanks for your thoughts!

I hope people remember when they downvote you that if we cant critisize the things we love, they can’t improve.

Sincerely, a long time linux user who thinks we shouldn’t downvote literally anyone even mildly critical of linux, often doing so in a constructive way

Helpful point about meat, any suggestions on places to check for better deals on meat? Increasingly I’m just reducing the amount of it I eat, but being broke as shit I’m always trying to keep in mind where’s a good place to buy what

At least they dont donate to political campaigns. Being anti union sucks though, I wasn’t aware of that, and its always good to know those kinds of things, thanks for making me more informed

Thats map is an incredible peice of history, great post. I’d be curious to see a more modern map made, since lynchings continued for a long time after then

Man, thats cool as fuck

Ah, neat that makes sense, thanks for explaining!
