It’s good enough, and that’s really great!

My dad tried this same trick and wanted to influence my relationship with my mom (who had an affair). I told him I understand his feelings but that he could never talk that way to me again or I would cut him out of my life immediately. This is my mom you’re talking about.

I can’t have other folks then myself decide who I interact with. It’s not like I’m taking sides or feel great about her actions, but I wasn’t gonna stop seeing her because it hurts someone else.

I never was that direct with my parents before, but it felt like if that line would be crossed it would all come crumbling down.

All three of my pixels had it. Maybe it’s a region thing?

I’ll take Joplin instead! It’s FOSS!

Where there’s a will, there’s a toupee . I am blessed with a full, thick, luscious dark blonde coupe, but everyone around being so negative about hairpieces made me think about them a lot… Following that, I have come to peace with the fact that I might go bald, and I might not like it, and rando hairpiece-haters around me won’t stop me from going all 18th century on my new hairpiece.

My first own house was in the middle of a lot of cultures that are different from my own, and man did those folks LOVE changing their hair every few days, with pieces or otherwise. Every second shop was selling surrogate hair, and it looked very cool. I think that part of those cultures is fucking rad, and it inspired me to pre-emptively accept my own future toupee, if it ever comes to that.

I think I understand your requirements more clearly now, a framework for FOSS collaborative work would be really great. I Hope you can find a way to use Matrix for it. Thanks for the explanation.

Man, I loved the google docs realtime collab functionality, they pretty much nailed it day 1 in my eyes. It’s so easy. If your project works/takes off it should be a lot more straightforward for FOSS projects to incorporate it. Hype!

Hey Hey! What a fantastic idea, I sure hope you can manage!

I was immediately wondering why you wouldn’t hop on projects already out there. For example: I recently ditched google Keep // Trello for Joplin, which i think already ticks alot of your boxes, even Async collab should work (but not realtime, and you’d have to manually resolve conflicts). Maybe adding better collab in Joplin is a more efficient way to spend your time? LibreOffice also has Async collab, since I think about 6 months, so while it might be young, it will grow, and might also benefit from another person putting their time towards it.

Whatever you choose to do, I’ll be super interested to see the results.

I don’t think life is ‘less pointless’ if you procreate. It’s both very pointless, except for personal fulfilment. What should it matter if you follow a path that evolution laid out before you. With consciousness, there is no more reason to consider that path in my eyes, just do what feels right.

Well I’d be glad to try your idea, it doesn’t sound worse then what we have currently and the current state sucks old car tires.

If capitalism was not so psychotic, inhumane and bloodthirsty, I might agree. In the current world market? If you are worth more then double/triple what your average local family house is worth, I will probably hate their personality and what they stand for.

They’ll still get the benefit of the doubt and I’ll still engage, because everyone is their own person, but they are playing 3-0 behind and have lots to prove. There’s a reason upper management is full of similar personality types.

For no. 6, the term you are looking for is: ‘Twinkle Juice’

I love vidyagames but have unexceptional skill in them. I did once finish the Ice Cold Beer arcade machine by Taito, and I LOVE that game. It only took me 250 tries ✨

😅🤣

You can beat Noita 😅? Hahahaha, it’s so brutally difficult. Still enjoy it a lot though. I got to phase 2 of the boss fight in FTL on normal with the default ship. It was a massacre. Great soundtrack to die to.

Reading (good) programming documentation is half the battle, or maybe 3/4ths, hahaha! I also remember when someone took the time to go in depth with the debugger and increased my programming efficiency by about 75%, good times, wow! Now I can only write code at 225% efficiency 🤣.

Third one’s the charm!

Rest in Pepperoni, old friend. I remember frantically searching for the disc whenever I needed some extra drivers.

Oh never mind, there it is.

I’m developing my first vidyagame, an RTS Clicker survival where you have to grow to be the largest organism on the planet, called Infinitree. Steampage going up in February, prototype is going out to F&F this month. Check out The Infinitree website for more info :-)

I guess with everything combined, one toastie is closer to 300 kcal, (local nutrition org says 81kcal per slice of bread) and doesn’t really fit the low cal request, it’s true.

It works so well for me for staying away from just rawdogging a whole bag of potato chips, which isn’t even that much more calories, but the type of calories are way worse.

I do ham and cheese full fibre toasties. About 150-200kcal but very filling. Not having any ‘bad’ snacks immediately available in the house also helps a lot.
