There’s a saying that kinda caught on. If people want to listen to what you have to say they will stop. A lot of my experiences at least have to do with everyone else is so much faster with what they want to say and the thing I had in mind is from 1 idea ago and no longer relevant. If I had just talked when everyone else was talking it might have gotten though. It feels weird as hell to interrupt people but the ones who talk a lot never feel upset you butted in and the ones who care would wait for your input anyways.

Same. I’ve given men and women compliments and have gotten random compliments from both. Usually tshirts or hair styles or tattoos that run close to what I like. I think it’s more about how it’s said. Informal compliments are best as it doesn’t put assumptions on the other side. “That’s a cool hair ribbon” is different than “I love when you wear your hair ribbons”. The assumption of feelings isn’t in the first one. More compliments should be given out freely if you genuinely feel a certain way. Just don’t go full lovestruck on the ice breaker.

Same. I know sync isn’t foss but the features and how it’s presented got me into the lemmyverse. I use it more than jerboa or infinity. Both great but the sync guy has a good smooth app. I support that.

No one wants to stop manufacturing because they will fall behind China. This is like the civ 6 game where everyone is trying to win a culture war or space race and that one guy is still hoarding tanks and oil. He wants to end it quick before you take the reliance on oil away.

Worst thing we can do is spend time with people who don’t actually love us. 34 and I’m ripping my life up by the roots because I let myself be taken by others who I made happy but never cared enough to pay attention to me. Everyone is mad at me for making the decision to end my long term relationship. What no one understands is how unhappy I was trying to force myself to be happy.

For real, they’re like one of the only companies I know left that just do their thing and not step on anyone’s toes. Also the sly push to Linux gaming from creating the steam deck and having people want to make it compatible. Most my machines are Linux now. I only have 1 gaming windows PC left. I wanna learn by immersion.

Bwahahaha. I was already back and forth with wow for the longest time after wotlk but you could see the direction change and I was a huge overwatch fan. It was my new TF2. But damn it was like coming out of childhood and realizing your favorite hero was not who you thought he was. I’m still holding out hope for valve. They aren’t public (I don’t think) and gabe has made some very good business decisions. Not to mention the steam deck has done more to take market away from the guilt windows has on gaming. This is a wild time to be alive.

Yes plz. We need more carbon sinks. Less trees means less oxygen, which means more co2 and more of these crazy weather patterns. There are cooperations that only see profit and sadly a lot see it only in the short term. Were is my green city where the walls have vegetation on them. Eco friendly and probably insulates pretty well.

Jumped ship when Spez wasn’t caving to the protests. I was mostly a lurker on Reddit and posted a little but now with the state of our social media it’s better to get out and have a voice. And this place is nice

That’s some good psychedelic stuff.

I’m convinced they all know what their doing. They understand the tax law behind it all.

Hopefully this can accelerate some good anti-heat paint and solar shade projects.

Yoo-hoo. Loved that shit when I was a kid. It tastes like the most horrible take chocolate sugar drink now.
