Where did the Linux socks thing come from? I see it around and am curious about the lore.

I think Cherrytree is my most important app. It’s primarily for making hierarchical lists but you can hyperlink between nodes and to external files and URLs and you can insert files, images and tables. I pretty much use it for organising my entire life and archiving important files, links and documents. The database is a single file (which you can have encrypted), so it’s super portable and you can sync it between devices. You can easily theme it yourself too (the default theme/icons looks quite old school).

I also love GIMP 3.0

This is dadjokes fine sir

Boooooo

Or cross to fox

I love that meme.

Do what you gotta do buddy

Yeah, I think you mis-read my comment and that we agree :)

I think their point is that in a large enough group there will be people who you cease to regard as peers.

I think a much more stable option would be morals defining your identity and being loyal to that.

I’m glad you posted the question - good to think about.

Sounds like either a) the dehumidifier is broken or confused b) your apartment has more moisture in it than you thought or c) the moisture is being replenished from somewhere.

I stayed in a friends house a few months ago and she had 4 dehumidifiers running since she bought it. The house was built before damp proofing was a thing and set into a hill, so the place is basically one massive wick for groundwater. It will never be over for her.

Lol

If you subscribe to hashtags for your interests from a Pixelfed account I’m sure you will find artists and art that you like. There are some wonderful artists on the Fediverse and it’s how I find most of the artists and art that I like these days.

Some that I particularly like right now:

• @rmiddleton.art@pixelfed.art - abstract expressionism

• @humanum@mastodon.art - digital watercolour ‘bio-fantasy’

• @atomicker@mstdn.ca - 1900s Japanese Shin-hanga prints from various artists

I sometimes see artists offering prints but I’m sure most artists would be approachable about making them for you if you’d like to buy one.

Unless the people around you were also doing the same then I think you would still be exposed to polluted views and knowledge.

Do you find that Writefreely federates well? I’ve tried hosting it a couple of times but my accounts weren’t discoverable on many other Fediverse instances. I never got to the bottom of why. I really like it though and would love for it to work out.

For the price of a cheap VPS and a couple of hours setup you could run YUNOhost, which comes with email set up out of the box. It integrates perfectly with Thunderbird on desktop and android and you can install other cool stuff on it as well.

Installation is a bit more involved than signing up with a commercial email provider but I thought I’d mention it. I had no previous experience of server admin and was able to get it set up and my server is still going strong after nearly three years.

Check out Cherrytree. I use it for keeping track of literally everything in my life. It’s hierarchical and searchable and you can insert files as well as hyperlink to external files, URLS and other nodes internally. You can export the database in various formats and there is also the option to have it encrypted. You can theme it in the preferences to make it look nicer too (the default is a bit retro-looking). It’s free and open source and AFAIK you can open your database in other applications, so you’re not locked into it.

If you want to sync it across devices just use Syncthing or whatever file sync app you’re selfhosting.

I highly recommend it! Probably the most important application I have on my computer.

I don’t have any experience with bipolar but I just wanted to say how great it is to see all of this support and reassurance in the comments. This is the internet at its best.

Tomato and dry roasted peanuts 🤌

I read a book once that I feel would be an interesting one for you. The title was something to do with ecodefense and monkeywrenching from what I recall.

I was just borrowing it when I made the rip and was also using a borrowed drive to read it, so I’d rather try and fix the files I currently have. I tried ripping it more than once when I had it, so I just settled for what I got - only getting around to fixing it now!
